The famed director is tweeting through it as an apparent paranormal experience keeps him awake in Aberdeen.
Guillermo del Toro , director of films likeThe Shape of Water , Hellboy , andPan ’s Labyrinth , is presently in Scotland . The manager is on location to take the coming adaptation of Mary Shelley ’s 1818 novelFrankenstein . Right now , he ’s staying at what he has name as " an old 1800 ’s hotel " in Aberdeen . A lover of horror and the supernatural , del Toro always stays in the most haunted room .
He share all of this information withfans and followers on Xas he detail his haunted stay .
" I am in the Most Haunted room of it- which was vacated this good morning by one of our producers . leftover electric and physical natural event scared her into leaving asap . stay on tuned- if anything pass I will report . "

While he did n’t share which hotel he was stay in , I ’m willing to bet it isNorwood Hall Hotel . The hotel is one of the mosthaunted position in Aberdeen . It was build in 1881 on the web site of a fifteenth - C castle and is know to have at least three trace haunting the dimension . The trio reportedly include the original owner of the property , James Ogston , as well as his married woman and schoolmarm .
The attribute is a four - star hotel with 37 rooms . According to someTripAdvisor review , the most preoccupied room on the property is Room 8 — though again , there ’s no confirmation that this is the haunted hotel that del Toro is speaking about . But if it is , del Toro says the most obsessed hotel room is really Room 4 . base on photograph he shared of the room , it does appear to be the Norwood Hall Hotel .
" I always stay in ' the most haunted rooms ' but only once did I experience anything supernatural- the rest of the meter : nothing . I have eminent hopes , " del Toro ’s thread continued .
Wherever he ’s staying , the shade vibes quickly get too acute , even for a famed horror devotee like del Toro .
" UPDATE . I can only say : Nothing Has happened yet , but the atmosphere in the elbow room is tyrannical and I am not gon na spend much more time there , " del Toro wrote . " It may be proposition , but at this period I kept it but am sleep in another room- I need 6 hours of slumber to have a unspoilt shooting day- I m finish there too soon and late in the day- but something is in that room with me … If anything happens or nothing does , expect one or two more updates . "
If this intense haunting experience is , in fact , at Norwood Hall Hotel , at least you are also getting to enjoy a place with an afternoon tea serving , Mr. del Toro . Hopefully , the ghost will let him get some sleep wherever he is . I am incredibly invested in see what he ’s fix up with Jacob Elordi and Oscar Isaac , so his rest is also of the utmost importance to me .
