I worked 4 years in the security department at Universal (mid-1990s) and spent most of that time roaming that entire lot during the graveyard shift. Virtually all those sets on NY Street are relatively new (a huge fire burned much of it to the ground in 2008). I also noticed they've put up more modern-looking facades. As for the Psycho House: I was the only one who'd go up there on dark, rainy nights. Oh, such fun. As for the inside of Psycho House, it's pretty much just a shell, looking much like an empty garage. But a fun video and thanks for bringing back great memories for me!

I worked for a popular TV show from 1995 to 2001 and our offices were on the Universal lot. I would drive around the lot on my golf cart all the time, and look inside everything. I even got to walk inside sound stages to watch filming of big films. It was a great time.

It's awesome, huh!!! My friend worked on a popular tv show also, was bout 2 name that show but then again, might not be the smartest move, edit button hit... he would get us guest passes after hours around midnight, a couple of golf carts, backpack full of beers & other stuff, like the stuff some people might put on a pizza, haaaaa, yes, I'm serious... we ran around the back lot like a playground all night long!!! Those were some of the best nights my friends & i had, pretty hard 2 top!!! Jumping off 2nd stories on2 stunt bags in the western town, walking through the psycho house & crashed airplane, we climbed a fire escape 2 get in2 the Pirates of the Caribbean sound stage that was set to look like a thailand pirate village with caves & a lagoon, man, 2 this day those are some of my fondest memories, those Universal nights... I am eternally grateful I got 2 experience that!!!

Now with all the retro style channels... I'm amazed at how often the houses were shared by different fictional families ! 😏. Adams Family, Donna Reed Show, Dennis the Menace, the Partridge Family, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeanie, Fathers Knows best, Marcus Welby, Andy Griffith, Leave it Beaver, Gidget, My three Sons, Adam 12, Dragnet, and the list goes on and on. 😓 And I love those huge painted back drop murals.

You are the Mr. Roger's of traveling the US for adults. That's a compliment. I loved watching him as a kid when he would take us to factories where things were made. You take us to Universal Studios where movies were made and make it fun to learn stuff we may otherwise never consider or see. Thanks!

I was a VIP tour guide at Universal from 1976 to 79-the lot was much bigger then and things were more in the original areas-Spartacus square and Europe burned down in one of the several fires that have happened since then-The showboat is gone as is the tower of London and the original 6 points Texas-The lot evolves as films are made and many sets have been placed just for the tour-Beavers house was next to Marcus Welby and colonial drive had many places including yhe HARVEY house, Munsters, Animal House etc-it was nice to hear you sound excited about visiting the lot-on the VIP tour we could take our guests off the little trolly and let them do what you did-get up close and personal and take pictures on Beavers Porch or the Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew houses etc-That lot was at one time the largest in the world and taking people through it was a privilege since movie history was made there-Frankenstien, Dracula The Mummy and the Wolfman -the original Phantom of the Opera stage I think may also be gone-that had a full sized opera house set with seats and boxes that was used in many films-its sad that Universal has basically reduced their studio to an amusement park but it also serves to keep the history of Hollywood alive-glad you had fun-Warners also has a tour and some of the Hello Dolly set still exists at 20th-the tram tour isn't what it was when they opened in 1965-we had lots more to show people in those days and the tram tour took 4 1/2 hours or more.

Hey...Colonial St. use to be in a entirely different location. Universal needs to get rid of the Who Ville that no one gives a crap about and the Plan crash scene..Universal is waaaay behind the times. We were zipped around the back lot like we were a inconvenience ...Universal Tour isn't what it use to be.

Anthony Richard You are totally correct-its no longer a tour its an extension of the amusement park-they don't have room to expand like Florida here in California-its sad to me since I remember a truly historic 420 acres in 1976-79 when I was a VIP guide-now its a sad artifact and frankly embarrassing with what they present as "film sets"

When I was there King Kong was still running and they had the Backdraft experience as well as the Back to the Future ride. They had to shut the ride down because some Japanese tourists were video taping it They asked them to leave so the rest of us could experience the ride. Of course I didn't get to see as much of the back lot that you did but it sure did bring back some lovely memories. Thanks!

There's a photo of the house with the extensions, but unpainted, (no window) with the tower roof removed. I believe that this is when the original facade was totally replaced. (second window added) in prep for the series being filmed Mystery... There's no second window, and unpainted in the Hardy Boys pilot (77).

Was that the giant shopping cart used in one of the Jackass movies? A bunch of the guys were piled in there, wearing superhero costumes maybe? And explosions were going off around them.

The gong from Indy, where they hide behind it while getting shot at, was about 6-8 feet diameter and had dragons and a mountain on the face. That gong does look familiar though.

This question probably has a simple answer, but is there anything inside those homes or is it just wires, lumber, etc?
@Trysmiling
@Trysmiling 7 жыл бұрын
On the lots they are only sets and the wires you see are for the film crews. Even when on location, like when they are filming in a real house, the lighting and everything is controlled by the crew.

Chase Petit Yes, the rooms would look real as you walk on the set, but if you look up there would be no ceiling or anything. No real walls and everything is easy to move around. These are all set up in warehouse type areas. Behind the "walls" of each set is warehouse space and where the film crew sets up and works. It's really pretty interesting because as you watch on tv or in a movie it all looks so real.

I've been on the Universal Backlot. Most of the buildings are just facades. They have exterior walls, but no innards. The interior shots are filmed on the sound stages.

The studio tour is the best part of Universal Studios. It's really awesome you got to walk around. I've always wanted to do that. I'm glad you gave the older history of the sets too. Unless you get a really awesome guide on your tram, they only talk about what the sets were most recently used for and the tour guide lets the tv's do all the work and I hate it. I like the tour guides who know their stuff and give you an enriching experience. The tours were better before they made videos for the trams.

Elfie, I couldn't agree more. The Backlot Tour is not what it used to be. I've probably been on that attraction about a dozen times, since the early 80s. The last time I was there, our tour guide admitted that he was an actor and that the tour guide gig was a side job to pay the bills. He didn't say it in a "this job sucks" sort of way, but after hearing that it made sense why he wasn't into it for the sake of being a movie buff. I'd much rather have an average Joe off the street as a tour guide, if he's a huge movie buff or better yet, a film historian, than someone who just knows how to perform for an audience.

I was back there in the 70s and 80s several times. Had some friends that worked there. Was very interesting and very exciting. It is an extreme shame almost all of it is gone now... I remember allot of that stuff. The Munsters house changed appearances so many times. I saw it when it was used as a haunted house in Leave it to Beaver. You are correct on the Cleaver house. Right down the street was also Dr. Marcus Welby's house. I have pictures of Jaws on the trailers and Amityville. Pictures of truck loads of New York and LA. police cars being brought on the sets also. The Psycho house was up on a hill top at the time I was there.

But being this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya, punk?" [The bank robber gives up trying to retrieve his shotgun; Callahan picks it up and starts to walk away.] Thief: "Hey! [Callahan turns around] I gots to know!" [Callahan aims his revolver and pulls the trigger, but the gun just clicks on an empty chamber, and he grins, laughs, and walks away.] Bank Robber: "Son of a bitch!"

When was this shot? I noticed that at exactly 8:09, there is a car missing from Back to the Future. Was it the Delorean? I think it is because the other signs have part II on it and that one doesn't. What does that red and yellow sign say? Pulled for Production? Could it have been that during that time the Delorean was being used in the movie "A Million Ways to Die in the West"? In the movie, Seth MacFarlane's character is out in the old western town at night and notices some flashes of light coming from a nearby barn. He goes to check it out and looks inside the barn. He asks what's going on and we see Doc Brown covering up the time machine. You only see the backside of it before Doc covers it up. When Seth asks what it is, Doc tells him it's a weather experiment. Seth looks confused and leaves. Then Doc looking nervous and freaked out exclaims "GREAT SCOTT!"
