Every building appearing on screen was made for the film. The lighthouse complex was actually two sets: For the exteriors shots, a full-scale, 70-foot lighthouse tower that could withstand 120-kilometer winds on Cape Forchu in Nova Scotia, Canada, a unique outcropping of volcanic rock, was built. The skeleton for the lighthouse was covered with plywood, then wrapped in a thin sheet that resembles brick facing and got torn down after shooting finished. A few of the interiors were filmed there as well, but the majority were built inside soundstages and warehouses outside of Halifax, Nova Scotia. In the writing phase, it became clear that it would be too cramped to maneuver the camera inside the lighthouse tower.
