Guillermo del Toro is currently filming his adaptation of Frankenstein at Dunecht House, a historic 200-year-old estate in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Del Toro has expressed his affection for Scotland and is staying in what he describes as the 'most haunted room' of a nearby hotel, where he reported odd occurrences. Dunecht House, a category A-listed building featuring 24 bedrooms and Italian and Greek architectural influences, serves as an ideal gothic backdrop for the film. The production, under the working title 'Prodigal Father', is expected to include a high-profile cast with actors like Oscar Isaac and Jacob Elordi. Filming has also been confirmed in Glasgow and Edinburgh, with the adaptation set for a Netflix release in 2025. Del Toro has been passionate about creating this film for over a decade, calling Mary Shelley's novel his favorite book.
