Death Row
Nope, none here in Portland. No death rows. The Grimm Portland Tribune is featured with a cover story about the upcoming execution.We also saw a quick shot of a Portland Marathon sign.
And a brief sidetrack to some user-generated content for those of you interested in that sort of thing:
Mill Park Grab 'N Go Convenience Mart
The Cherry Sprout Produce, located at 722 N Sumner St, filled in for the Mill Park Grab 'N Go. Filming took place at the Cherry Sprout on Oct. 1.

Kreske's House
Forest Grove... Very creepy house, fitting location for a guy cooking a human foot in his soup. (Filming location is of yet unidentified.) Little tip: Never crawl down into a cannibal's crawl space.
Willamette Builders' Supply
Also Forest Grove, also fictional.
Back to the ReBuilding Center on Mississippi. Remember Marty the Mouse from Season 1 Episode 9?
Other interior shots included: Public attorney's office and the Prison. Thanks to a reader (below) for the tip about the Wapato Jail facility. It was used for the death row and prison scenes.
Familiar scenes this week:
- Police Station
- Renard's Condo
- Nick & Juliette's House
- Trailer
- Spice Shop: In this episode, Renard refers to it as "a shop in the Pearl" on Fulton St... which does sound much cooler than "a shop in Old Town on 2nd".

I was an extra in this episode. The prison and death row scenes were filmed at the unopened Wapato Jail facility.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info!
DeleteI was also in this episode, as the "Executioner". Dressed in all black, with gloves, mask and creepy hat, it felt more like a Halloween costume than a real executioner. It's interesting how they turned the entrance into Wapato Jail into the Execution Chamber, by building false set wal outside and covering the gap between the set flats with black cloth. My face and hands are visible on the execution control box built by the prop department, albeit very briefly.
