I know this gets asked every couple of years and the answers are always "it's not a real place" or "it was a set in BC" but I've been doing some digging and I'm fairly certain the location used for Exhumation Camp II was a real, functional summer camp that was privately purchased after production wrapped. It's in the PNW. I won't doxx the exact coordinates obviously but there's enough in the background plates of the dock scenes to cross-reference with satellite if you're patient.
Here's the weird part: I've talked to a few people over the years — horror survivors' forums, cons, DMs — and there's this very quiet, very unofficial thing that exists. Not a convention. Not a fan meetup. More like a retreat? Someone described it as "exposure therapy for the last ones standing." I assumed it was a joke or an ARG but the person who told me about it was dead serious and then deleted their account.
I don't want to make this into creepypasta bait. I'm genuinely curious if anyone has heard of this or been contacted about it. It's one of those things that sits in the back of your brain.
EDIT: To be clear, I'm not trying to organize a trip. I'm researching the production history of EC2. DMs open if you have anything but please don't send me AI-generated slop about "cursed film sets."
I've heard the "retreat" thing mentioned exactly once on the old EC fan forums before they went down. Someone posted about getting a DM invitation from a woman who claimed to be involved in the original production. Thread got nuked within a day. Always assumed it was a bit.
That tracks with what I've heard. The language was always very specific — "support program," not "fan experience." And it was always invitation-only, word of mouth. Never advertised.
this sounds like the setup to a slasher movie lmao
Ha. Yeah, I know how it sounds. But that's kind of the point, isn't it? The best hiding spots are the ones people laugh at.
Old post but — I sent OP a DM. I won't share details here but I can confirm the location is real and the property is privately owned. The person who bought it was part of the EC2 crew. Draw your own conclusions.
