I was a driver for the filming of Edward Scissorhands way back in 1990. It was awesome to see myself in the cast & crew photo at the 23:30 mark! I have that same picture in my Edward Scissorhands memorabilia box in storage! Thanks for the great video, Adam!
Today is my 50th birthday, and this is the most awesome birthday present to wake up to this morning! Edward Scissorhands holds a huge place in my heart. Thanks for this!!!
This guy is awesome. I’ve always thought that if I ended up as the owner of a movie or TV show house I would dedicate some space to memorabilia. I love the way that this guy has taken care of this house and turned it into a personal museum of sorts.
He’s a newer owner - they bought it in 2020. Would love to actually see it restored to it’s original, or close to the ambiguous time era / style that’s portrayed in the movie. They’ve just listed back on the market! Hmm.. 😁
@@girlscanbedrummers5449 other reasons necessitate a 500K price hike? Mmmkay. Hey if they want to attempt to make a big profit - their prerogative. And if someone wants to buy it for that much - that’s on them. 🤷🏼♀️
It’s so wonderful to see someone who is so passionate about being able to live in a home that has such personal meaning to them. You can see this passion when he so obviously wants to share it with others. The previous owners could have sold to someone who just wanted it for the money but they apparently saw what it meant to him.
Hey Adam! We went a couple of months ago and the owners are so nice!!! They’re incredibly generous for opening up their home like they do and letting the fans experience this famous house!
I remember walking around that neighborhood just after filming had completed. No one appeared to be living there yet and all the houses were still painted in the pastel colors. I also recall an empty culdesac or dead end street in the neighborhood that led to a wooded area where the castle would have been in the film. Brought back a lot of memories. Thanks guys.
That was epic fellas. The screen used can opener and original wall paper were especially amazing. Glad you got to keep some for yourselves, That’s amazing .
Sorry to spoil the excitement over the can opener, But if you read the note that was posted by the can opener, it clearly says: "This is the exact same Color and Model can opener as used in the film". It was NOT the screen used can opener.
I'm embarrased to admit that even though I love Tim Burton movies, I only watched Edward Scissorhands two years ago! (and I regret not seeing it sooner!) It was really great to see inside the house and really awesome of Joey to give you that wallpaper piece, so cool!
My grandpa lived on Edgewood in Lakeland until he died in 2020 so I really recognize this area well! Especially Southgate Center because that was our go to Publix and it's right around the corner from where he lived.
This was fascinating!!! I could've swore all my life that it was filmed in sunny Southern CA. Little did I know it was actually Florida. Crazy stuff! I know Burton wanted it to feel like where he grew up in Burbank in the 60's.
So happy you documented this. It is really crazy that last week the house went up on the market for sale. I could not imagine turning it into a museum then just selling it, all we know is we are glad you were able to show it to us before that happened.
I just wanna thank you Adam for doing this and for the guy giving the tour for being so helpful and nice. Idk just when he said things like “your viewers” it really touched me like wow he’s considering the feeling of so many strangers through a camera lens. I just found it really sweet.
HEY ATW...THIS HAS GOT TO BE ONE OF THE MOST INCREDIBLE PIECES of work you've ever done! A most impressive vlog! The movie was such an island in time and now you have documented the screen used home interiors! ! YOW!! Thank you.
Adam This is fabulous that you met the person that owns it and the whole story of how he purchased the house. This place is Wild. Thank You for sharing.
So crazy! I just saw a article about the owners of that house putting it on the market 2 mins ago. I’ve been to Southgate lots of times as a kid & I almost grew up in Dr Paul Bearer’s neighborhood. Adam, probably remembers Dr Paul Bearer, he was Tampa’s version of Elvira.
I'm so glad you finally got to go there!! I was hoping you would. They are great people! When we heard about the house being up for sale we drove there to take a look. Joey and Sharon showed up while we were there and we thought for sure they'd tell us to leave. But they were so nice, they had just won the bid for the house and were so excited. The realtor was on the way with the keys and they invited us to stick around and they'd give us a tour of the home. It was so freaking cool! Then a few months later they invited us for a Christmas party and they projected the movie onto the house in the backyard. So we got to watch Edward Scissorshands at the Edward Scissorshands house 😍😍😍 it was amazing.
I loved Edward Scissorhand. I haven't seen the movie in a while so I gotta go back and watch. The owner really match up this really well in his home. Thank you for sharing Adam, you are the man.
Wow the gentleman that keeps this house just really was inviting and patient. Seeing other videos of people that bought famous houses react differently but this owner just his passion is awesome!!! Thank you for sharing your experience, so freaking cool!
That was nice of him to welcome you guys into his house and you even got a souvenir. I love that movie. Thank you Adam !! Very cool. I lived in Lakeland FL. with my family for a short time. I was only 5 years old, but we moved back to GA. My uncle and his family lived there for many years. He owned Stephens garage and a Mercedes car lot in Lakeland.
Oh yeah! I saw a few youtubers do videos on the Edward scissorhands house and neighborhood but I’m glad you finally did a video on it. Pretty neat that it’s still there in Tampa!
Wow! There was someone that did a filming location on this movie years ago and they stated that the whole castle thing was on a sound stage. Never knew they actually built a castle for the movie on actual property. Crazy.
Excellent video Adam! One of my favorites for sure! Keep up the great work! I'm a Florida boy and love seeing things I haven't been to ,but definitely would love to see! Thanks again! 👍👍🤙😎👽
Very cool to get a tour of the house from a classic movie. I was curious and looked up the location of the house on the internet and it looks like the house has just been listed for sale. Surprised he didn’t mention that in the video.
This was awesome. And to know celebrities as famous as Johnny and Wynona were so close to where we all live and filmed such an iconic film...just awesome😁
Has to be the best ever behind the scenes footage ever with the team up of ya with Micah .. this was a fave movie of my 3 girlies and myself .. so glad u got to go into Scissorland .. can u imagine how much more they will get now that u guys went in and got to vlog it. Props to them for allowing this to happen 👏 🙌
Adam, this video inspired me to rewatch the movie. Such a special film, and the music was a big part of my memory. Thank you for sharing this adventure!
This Awesome! How weird we remember the littlest things in the movie and we get excited!! Best thing in life I love this thank you for sharing this Adam
We supplied the lumber/ supplies and had the contract for the for the movie sets in Lutz, Land of Lakes, Lakeland . I met A M Hall and W Ryder. I seen but did not talk to J Depp. Hall and Ryder were cool as hell. One time Depp was bitching and whining about something not going his way and the heat. Hall told him to grow a pair LOL. I will never forget that.
This is so, so cool. I’m lucky to live in So CA and drive by movie homes, buy this is the coolest thing and hope to be able to visit some day! Thank you for sharing and thanks to Joey for opening up his home like that - what a cool dude!
Have & LOVE that movie!!! My oldest daughter & I LOVE ALL Tim Burtons Movies!!! Thank you!!! That was sooooooo AWESOME!!!!!! YOU TWO ARE AWESOME!!!! LOVES/HUGS!!!!
Great video.... so Awesome that he was able to purchase the house, glad that a true fan was able to buy the home and keep the memories alive!! kool video...what a nice guy!!! loved the nerd excitement of the can opener
Nice to see this thanks for sharing. Love Tim Burton he a talent person. I saw as a kid in 1985 when I was 9 with a group of 6 kids tim Burton first movie Pee Wee big adventure. Where he looking for his missing retro bike. Thanks again for sharing this.👍👍🙂
Adam you were the inspiration of going to the my girl house and the Southgate shopping center saw your original video back in inthink 2015 orb2016 went to see both locations and fell in love with the area. Thank you for literally making our life better. Because of you we moved out here.if you never made those videos we would have no clue where the locations were
How cool to have worked on a movie that you now own the film house of.. Glad Joey ended up getting the house.. couldn't have gone to a better person! A true fan who treats other fans to tours of his home... LEGEND. Thanks for this awesome video, Adam! I always enjoy your amazing content :)
I know when I went to LACMA when they had the Tim Burton exhibit that there were some of the topiary there. This was years ago. I got a picture of it. I am not sure if it is still there or not. Thank you for showing us the house, that was amazing!
This is awesomeness -- how the heck does ATW do this? Also, The Nightmare on Elm Street house just sold back in January 2022 so I'm hoping it finally went to a fan that appreciates the significance, and would be willing to friggin share it with the world.
Happy to know that someone so into the movie has that house now! Although I do wish they had made it up to look a little more like it did in the movie... but that's also probably because I love some of the home features of the time period it was set in. That powder blue exterior, the hanging pendant lamps inside, the mushroom wallpaper, and other retro feeling finishes.
