Update:
Screencap from teaser.
Run Norman Run. Bates Motel filmed Norman Bates (Freddie Highmore) running out of the gothic Bates House set in Aldergrove and down the stairs. He looks surprisingly normal and Norman-like after his stay in the Pineview Institute but what’s a season finale of Bates Motel without a murder or two? “Emergency responders” arrive at the motel and there will be “loud dramatic dialogue”.
Added: Open windows were a big clue. This is what the Bates House looks like normally.
Screencap.
Good to know there are vacancies at the motel and free wifi.
Norma’s Mercedes with the big hole in the background.
One emergency responder already parked in the motel parking lot.
And another waiting for dark.
Plus a couple of Oregon State Police cars.
Night shoot.
There will be one last shoot for season 4 at the Bates House and Motel set overnight on Thursday night (March 31st – April 1st). Bates Motel wraps filming of this season next week.
Bates Motel airs Monday nights on A&E.
what time do they start filming tonight?
It’s overnight so I think they start when it’s dark and film until it’s light. Although they could have a daylight scene at suppertime.
Where was the Pineview Institute? Was that a set, or an existing building? It’s gorgeous!
I’m also curious, I thought it was a house I remembered a while ago down in Crescent beach but after a street view – it was not… anyone ?
Pine Veiw Institute is filmed at Hycroft in Shaughnessy, believe it’s the Vancouver Womens Club. Hycroft holds an open house close to Christmas.
