The Moon was a Ghostly Galleon...

As The Highwayman began production under a full moon the night of September 4th.

The screams lasted throughout the night and disturbed the residents... even the residential ghosts... at the Governor's mansion. Cast and crew members reported strange cold spots or cold waves that passed over them when the moon was high.

But that did not dissuade the Colorado Film Commissioner, Kevin Shand, (pictured at left talking to Digital Effects Supervisor Jon Firestone) from visiting the set that first night of production.



Most of the dastardly deeds going on were those captured by the RED camera in the dark staircase between the ground floor and the landing above that once went to the servant's quarters.






And most of the screaming was done by veteran actor Don Kraus, show here (at the right) with his stunt double, Will Beckingham, (at the left) in their twin nightshirts.
