Lou Llobell’s new horror film, Passenger, might really have been haunted. She stars opposite Jacob Scipio in a story about a couple who quit their jobs to go on a road trip, but encounter “a highway demon”. It was filmed in Washington state — Twin Peaks country — and weird stuff went down.
“We shot in the area where the Green River killer dumped all his bodies,” she says. “We filmed everything at night and spooky things would happen. The van we were shooting in would start moving or shaking and the SOS button would randomly go off. Jacob requested a priest to bless the set.” Seriously? “Yeah — and they found this priest because there was a priest convention nearby,” she says. “He came and sprayed us and the van with holy water.” Did it work? “I don’t think so.”
