Is Marion Crane alive at the end of Bates Motel? Maybe. But it’s more likely production filmed a pickup (i.e. earlier) scene of Marion Crane (Rihanna double) leaving her building and putting her suitcase in her red sports car. Bates Motel filmed this sequence at east Vancouver’s The Connaught this afternoon.

Who is Marion Crane? In Alfred Hitchcock’s classic 1960 film Psycho, the blonde Crane checks into Norman Bates’s motel and is killed by Norman-as-Mother in the shower. Bates Motel has its own twist on the character played by pop star Rihanna as a redhead.
