A cavernous grotto, glistening gems encrusted in its walls, was a welcome set after two bitterly cold nights of filming in Black Park, the sprawling, forest-like reserve near Pinewood Studios. There, production designer Stephen B. Grimes had created from wood, plaster, stones, and glass, a fanciful home for a clairvoyant who pursues his visions by setting into motion a large, glowing emerald. While the art department was busy spreading fine-ground silver glass on the floors and spreading emerald-colored stones, the special effects department was rigging a large green stone which would rotate in mid-air. Wind machines were also installed to create the powerful gust that disrupts a hologram of the Beast's fortress after the clairvoyant had it called forth for Colwyn and Ynyr to see.
