10 Horror Movie Sets That Were (Allegedly) Haunted

2. Rosemary's Baby (1968)

The Amytyville Horror
Paramount Pictures

Rosemary's Baby is a 1968 horror film directed by Roman Polanski and starring Mia Farrow and John Cassavetes. Since its initial release all those decades ago, Rosemary's Baby has been considered a classic of the horror genre, creating chills and rating high on the spooky factor for audiences across the world. Telling the story of a young pregnant woman and her husband (Farrow and Cassavetes), Rosemary's Baby is a tightly woven tale of the demonic, the occult and the arrival of the devil into the modern world.

Amongst several of the accounts which leave fans wondering if something dark was attached to the production was the death of the man responsible for the soundtrack - Krzysztof Komedam. He reportedly fell off an escarpment after the movie was finished shooting, and sadly died soon after. William Castle, the producer of the film, suffered with painful kidney stones after the project wrapped up, which allegedly caused him to have repeated hallucinations of scenes from the movie.

As if all of that wasn't enough, the building where Rosemary's Baby was set - The Dakota - was said to have been a haunted building with a lot of twisted history. But that's a tale for another day...
