Where JEEPERS CREEPERS Was Made - What the FLORIDA FILMING LOCATIONS Look Like Today Abandoned! 

Thanks for watching guys. Here’s my latest video of the Rob Zombie Halloween II Filming Locations ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3GaA2TlK0So.html

I used to drive down 180th every day when I lived out there, and one evening me and my girlfriend were going home and they were shooting a night scene for jeepers creepers, and we were asked to stop while they were filming. We stuck around for a while and watched. It was neat.

This is one of my favorite movies I like the first one the best

Went by old Reddick HS today, the Jailhouse from movie, it has been demolished, no trace left. 😢 Missed getting to see it. The lot is fenced off, says no trespassing, looks like they're prepping to build again possibly on lot. Great video! Priceless now ❤

I'd be kinda freaked out being in those locations alone hahaahaahah nice job men!!! Its fun watching those locations today.

Heard they auction off the creepers truck. Wouldn't that be cool to own

Imagine just walking around and then a suspenseful music starts playing.

One of my favorite movies. The girl that plays Trish is now in her 50s!

Thank you SO much for doing this!!! Jeepers Creepers is my favorite horror movie, and I’ve always wondered where it was filmed…I go down to FL every year, I’m definitely going to visit all of these spots!

Hey Tampa Jay! I am from Ocala. Just thought I'd let you know a cool little factoid. My mother actually worked on that movie as a locations director. We have many props from the movie including some Ravens! Man are they scary. I love driving down the road in Ocala and seeing her say "Yep picked that spot for a certain scene in the horror flick.

This was cool, Jeepers Creepers is one of my favorites.

Much ahead Every 23rd Spring!

You are definitely one of my favorite vloggers. Your research into the topic and humor are top notch.

It's pretty amazing how much these locations have changed over the course of 20 years, but at least to this day these places are known for making cinematic history, and i think the reason why buildings like the school and the diner look abandoned today is because i think they pretty much are abandoned and whoever owns the buildings now just don't do anything with them.

I remember watching the first the first time at my grandma's house. She had a VHS copy of the movie, and I watched it at the end of 2nd grade. I used to watch it everyday because I went to her house everyday for summer while my parents worked. I'm now in the 9th grade and have seen it so many times that I can quote scenes, I still watch it a few times a year. It's one if those movies I will never get tired of watching.

As a teen, i use to always wish i was in jeepers creepers 1 and 2, even if I was just a background extra, i could have been a athlete on the school bus or one of the extras sitting in the diner eating. Anything, i would have been happy to be there, i still feel that way today

Cannot believe its 20 years

These filming locations inspire me to vlog. I don't know if I'm ready to be all in the camera like that. But I have a well of knowledge just bubbling. I think I'm more I to the research side of it.

One of my favorite movies. I remember seeing this movie in the theater when it first came out. This was one of the first films to make the horror genre come back 20 years ago, and horror still continues to be strong. This movie creeped me out and I loved the Jeepers Creepers theme song too. I still walk around singing it today. Lol Very cool video Tampa Jay. Nice work with the locations and movie comparisons. I didn’t know this was filmed in Florida. We’re in Ocala, right outside the filming locations. How cool!

I love this, thanks Tampa Jay! I played Beverly - the waitress at the Diner - and really love seeing credit given to the attention to detail at the Diner. That was our amazing set decorator Barbara Peterson and her team. The place looked and felt like it had been a working diner for decades.

Love the original Jeepers Creepers, great video! The horses made a great cameo!🐴🐴

I loved it! Perfect line up for the scenes! Wow one heck of a job thank's for taking us along! Luv&Peace Bro!

I love how you captured the scenes! You pinpointed every scene! Scary movie! Thanks for this video, loved it!

Love the filming locations bro, please keep them coming. Thanks bro for the video. The best vlogger.

As a kid, I would watch films and get that tingly feeling inside, day dreaming about being a actor, on location. Creating a piece of art that eventually everyone would get to see and enjoy, as i became a adult, i started doing extra and stand in work for tv shows and movies just so i could be in that environment.

Wow never knew they flimed Jeepers creepers in florida now I wanna move lol the first one was the best definitely had me scared I was young when it came out thanks for sharing

I'm here early. Love filming location videos. I remember the first time I saw this movie.

Hello Tampa oh brilliant man this film really scares me. I cant believe its 20 years. Tampa thankyou for all your hard work research fabulous 💯💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

The scene where you see the truck behind the bushes, at the time of filming George Steinbrenner owned the property and that was his property maintenance manager.

I went to see this movie in the theatre and the first 20 minutes were terrifying. Thanks for the video!

Just seeing the open road, sunshine, im getting that tingly feeling of nostalgia

That’s awesome! Thanks for the amazing details you put into this video!

There is a great river to float down in Dunnellon called the Rainbow River. On a side note, i saw a UFO on that stretch of road back in the 80s.

This was very cool to see. I loved that movie too. I always enjoy your filming locations but this one i was excited about!!! Love and hugs

Just watched your Camp Crystal Lake filming locations and now I'm watching this one... very good videos and I am now a subscriber!! Keep the scary videos coming... I got some movie ideas if you need any!! Thanks brother!!

Sooooo cooool dude loved it keep them coming . ..much ahead

Love the filming location vids bro keep them coming

One of my favorite horror films had no idea it was made in Florida. Great job covering all of the locations!

Awesome, I learn something new every time I watch one of Tampa jay's videos! I knew Ocala/Silver Springs was famous for "Creature From the Black Lagoon", Lloyd Bridges "Sea Hunt" and some of the real old Tarzan movies but did not know that "Jeeper Creepers" was filmed in Marion County! Beautiful scenery up there in horse country! Awesome job Jay, always a pleasure to watch your videos, especially the back roads ones!!

This was awesome I found a church that reminded me of the one in the movie but it's a shame the real one burned down. Also, I was looking forward to see where the heck that location where the lady with the cats was filmed. Such a creepy looking house and one of the crazy and most memorable scenes in the movie.

I must say editing as usual 💯👌classy professional video as always

Oo, good one! I loved seeing these abandoned filming locations from this creepy flick. Excellent job matching up the shots.

That was awesome! Thanks so much for sharing this amazing footage! Loved the movie too! Subbed from 🇨🇦. Love your channel!

Dope video, man - great background info. Love a good horror movie! But then ... taking out his eyes!! Rad Chev Impala! :-D Beautiful horses - warmed my heart. :-)

I live right round the corner from one of these locations; and when it was being produced one of my friends from high school was an editor on the film (a few of us moved to LA after high school). I got to see an edit of it when we went to the director's house to give notes. The CGI wasn't completed then, but from what I remember that cut we watched was pretty much what got released in theaters.

Thanks for more horror history! Awesome video, I too thought that part when the creeper watches them drive by at the church was one of the hair standing parts of the movie. Also cool seeing the nice horses thanks man!🤘

I loved JC it was great. Spooky!thanks for the superb tour! You sure do it up right👍🏽

Sweet video! You do great work! Love the random filming locations!!

Once again a fantastic film location video.thank you so much matey.

morning mate, wow 20 years already didn't realize how old this movie was, its still one of my favorites to just finished watching part 3 , 5 months late watching this but loved seeing the locations in person, as someone whos been on a few sets now its always crazy seeing the behind the scenes parts and how much is actually filmed so close or even in big warehouses, alot of movies/TV series get filmed for Netflix right here in my city,. just finished doing a scene for Jazz Band,, much love my friend, this movie is definitely one Ill always remember thanks for sharing such a awesome day with us

I can just hear that roaring horn of the creeper truck. It always gave me the eeby jeebies watching the body bag being dropped into the pipe and the creeper just standing and looking at them. 😱

Hey man thanks for this video you were very detailed in the description and also got the locations spot on! I love horror movies and Jeepers Creepers is one of my favorite!

🙌🏻Thank you for bringing me back to when life was a little more simple, and going to the movies was a lot more enjoyable. I remember all these scenes as if it were yesterday. Even after 20+ yrs my wife still won’t watch it😝 Nice job🤘🏻

Love jeepers creepers franchise great location n video jay

Love that movie!! Great job making this video!!!

Omygosh jay I LOVE this one! 1 of my fave movies!! I really enjoyed this

Great Video Jay ! Stay Safe an Healthy out there!! :)

Awesome video Jay, always wondered where JC was filmed at, all I could ever find was Ocala. Thanks so much for this, was really cool, hope you had a great weekend my friend.

8:14 I always noticed that vehicle in the background too, glad someone else picked up on it. Great video, man!

I truly love seeing how your channel subscriber count has grown since I first subbed 6 months ago. Touche' brother

Great job Tampa Jay!! Really enjoyed your video

This looks so much like where I live in oklahoma. I was convinced as a kid the creeper was living in the woods next to my house.

Dude this is so cool. I’m so happy this was recommended to me. Definitely subscribing

Omg loved this .thank u. My fav movie ever

This is my favorite horror movie! Thanks for taking me on a trip to see what it looks like irl...eerie but so cool

Dude its crazy, i keep coming back and watching this video

Great job showing the filming locations Jay. Jeepers Creepers certainly lives up to its title and is still one of my favourite Horror Movies. 🙂👍

I lived in Reddick for 10 years(live back in Canada) and would pass Reddick High School every day and was blown away when I learned about the connection. Thanks for showing me a little bit of the town I grew to love and all the people who lived there. Love you Superman.

If that church was still there with the pipe the underground basement would creep me out.

Thanks Tampa Jay very well done vlog a new sub here, your funny to. I always wanted to see the filming locations for Jeepers Creepers movie!? I'm a big fan like you to. Keep up the good work!

I live a mile from the Church. Have been here for many many years now . They say it was maliciously burned down. It hit me so hard that it was torched like that. It had historic value. We know the road the High School is on as Tiger Trail . It was closed to traffic for at least a month , maybe more when filming. My memory might not be exact. No traffic allowed except for the school. (students and teachers) That tree where Justin took a break... Always reminds me of the movie. They had the Police there the whole time while filming because the director Victor Salva 's career was derailed by the revelations of sexual misconduct with one of the film's underage stars. He was convicted so therefore the Police had to be present because of school so close. He did say he made a huge mistake and I believe he meant it. I wanted to make a vid like you did here about the movie,,,, You did a great job so I am happy!

Awesome video jay !! I did t no jeeper creepers was filmed there pretty cool now.

Great vid. One more missed location is the Cat House. It was taken down a couple years ago. Filmed on SR 44 in Eustis, just west of Estes Rd. Check it out...

My dad and I love to watch that movie. We live in Florida and didn't even realize it was filmed there.

THANKYOU SOOOOOO MUCH FABULOUS VIDEO WORKED SO HARD ON IT 👌😘😘

fantastic road trip, thanks TJ !!!!!!!

Another great Trip thx a lot :-)

This is awesome!!! I have to visit these spots next time i visit family in dunellon,fl so cool!

Really enjoyed this, deffo come back on the 23rd anniversary at night!

One of my most fav. movies ever. Very nice !

It'll really suck to have car trouble on a long deserted stretch of road like that.

One of my favorite horror movies . Thanks

Love Jeepers Creepers. Thanks TJ

Great movie! Thanks for this video.

Hey Tampa Jay. Very cool video. Jeepers Creepers is one of my favorite films. That's so cool to be able to visit these film locations. Especially if it's a film you love. I also enjoyed your video on the Elvis film "Follow That Dream". Hopefully one day I can visit Fiorida to see all the interesting things it has to offer. Thanks for sharing! Aloha from Hawaii.

Excellent location vid of one of my fav horror movies. Bama Mike recommended.

Hi Tampa yet another great movie indeed not sure if u remember i was the 1 who recommended u do the iconic 2005 The Girl Next Door locations and like u say waiting till Covid is a lot better and less risk to be able to get back out hunting down more iconic movie locations would you be able to show actual video clips of the actual movie for each scene then pause and replay when you get to where the next shot was captured ie in this case JEEPERS CREEPERS as u are pointing out where each shot of each scene i feel would be better than stills from your phone or if not showing the full movie on your phone as u point out where each scene was shot from. Even better a Split screen just showing the locations under while playing the actual movie

Although the Old Reddick School was Historical, the schoolboard had it demolished in 2021/2022. SW 180th is still nice and rural. I remember watermelons growing along the northeast side back in the '80's.

This was so much fun to watch! I have been in that area and was able to find where the church was once located but couldn't find the diner or police station. I have always been curious about where the crazy cat lady's house was.Thanks for sharing this!

You know how many times in my life I travel up-and-down that exact road?? It makes sense tho bc Ocala is literally that... just one long endless, deserted, two lane highway

Beautiful scenery, please do more👍👍👍

Jeepers Creepers... Awesome Video.

This was awesome. I live in Orlando i didn't know that this was filmed so close. Thx

Yeah, living near places where movies were filmed is great, because I live near the wild adventures theme park, where they shot the amusement park sequence for ZOMBIELAND. Yup, that's true. Just outside of valdosta Ga. Good place to go, especially with the family and lots of fun rides.

That was excellent!

This is fascinating! Excellent job!

Great video! Love this movie!

Awesome Jay!!😃

Oh wow this is the first ever horror i watched as a little girl. this is amazing, great video.
