otsoNY Comments: Wooster Street is a street in SoHo, Manhattan and Greenwich Village that runs south to north from Canal Street to Washington Square. It is a prime location for on-location filming and photo shoots due to its relatively low traffic, and the flagstone sidewalks and cobblestone street give it an old gritty feel.

otsoNY Comments: Although this scene is supposed to represent London, England, it was in fact shot in Williamsburg, Brooklyn with the use of green screen technology. A typical English style pub was inserted into the background, and in most cases would have looked fine if the filmmakers hadn't chosen a name such as The Earls Court Tavern, as in the next clip, the famous Big Ben is seen, which is situated in Westminster and nowhere near Earls Court.

otsoNY Comments: This actual venue is called Kill Devil House of Dark Spirits and is located at the corner of Bedford Avenue and Grand Street in Brooklyn.
