After watching the horror film The Evil Dead (1981) on someone's movie channel we went online to the trivia section at IMDb and found this tidbit:
The cabin did not actually have a cellar. Most of the cellar scenes were filmed in the stone cellar of a farmhouse owned by producer Robert G. Tapert’s family in Marshall, Michigan. The last room of the cellar was actually Raimi’s garage. The hanging gourds and bones are a tribute to The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974). For the scene where the students descend into the cellar, a hole was cut into the floor, a shallow hole was dug, and a ladder was placed into the pit.Nice. Anyone want to add anything to the story?

okay.... yes, it's really great about this quote on IMDB. I've known this bit of trivia for years. I'm actually watching the movie right now. However, what drives me nuts is that I can't for the life of me figure out where the heck this house is!! I live in Tekonsha, and just for sheer thrill and adolescent giggles that will inevitably follow, I want to visit this house! Do you have any idea where it is?
