A couple of weeks ago we let you know about Paco Plaza using the web to take fans behind-the-scenes of his upcoming film [REC 3]: Genesis. Today the man himself has offered another update. One that may indeed send shivers down your spines.

Translated from the Blog
Yesterday we filmed all the night. It was spectacular, getting all the footage that we needed of the wedding guests. But the best of all is that I had the opportunity to chat with one of the guards at the place in which we were shooting, and now I’m not sure if I want to return there ever.

Apparently the place where we were filming was originally utilized as a field hospital during the civil war, and unidentified bodies were buried in the garden area that we were filming in. Right under our feet. There are said to be areas in the garden area that not even dogs go near. The guard told me that he and his co-workers have heard many strange noises during their late shifts.

Last night some of the actors ventured through the area after we broke for supper, but immediately they came back to the site to tell their tales of odd occurrences, spooky sounds, and uneasy feelings, insisting that they go back later with flashlights so they can properly investigate the source of these troubles.

It feels really weird to be shooting [REC] 3: Genesis in a place such as this. However, we are doing so with respect for the dead with no amount of mockery intended. I promise that what I have just recounted for you is true.
