Ted Takes Series Facts, Hulu's Castle Rock:

• Castle Rock is the same town where Gordie, Chris, Teddy and Vern lived in the movie Stand By Me.
• Bill Skarsgård shot this series in between two other Stephen King projects: It (2017) and It: Chapter Two (2019).
• Some filming took place at West Virginia State Penitentiary in Moundsville, West Virginia. The penitentiary once housed 2,400 violent criminals with 85 executions taking place on the property, along with murder, rape and suicides. The 142 year old penitentiary is considered, to some, as one of the most haunted sites in the state.
