Sunny Gables

How it Was Found
Sunny Gables is a location that has been used in many projects, including Shipwrecked Comedy projects! During the early stages of pre-production for Edgar Allan Poe's Murder Mystery Dinner Party, Mary Kate Wiles was on set for another web series called Muzzled the Musical. For one of its locations, Muzzled was using Sunny Gables as a site. Mary Kate realized that it would be the perfect location for Poe Party, and she told the rest of the Shipwrecked team. One day while Mary Kate was on set, Sean came, scouted the location, and took lots of pictures. The whole team loved what they saw.

Shipwrecked at Sunny Gables
So it was settled, Sunny Gables would be the location for Edgar Allan Poe's Murder Mystery Dinner Party. Shots of various rooms, doorways, hallways, a spiralling staircase, and a bridge outside were used for the multi-part series. Most of the set dressing in the series was original to the house; this helped cut costs, but it also meant that there were some interesting additions to the set. One of the more notable pieces was a pool table that was unable to be removed from one of the rooms. Many of these sets are iconic to the likeness of Poe Party, and recognizable to most fans. One of the more famous ones is in the intro of each episode; you can see a close up shot similar to the picture on this page, it features the gates and entrance of Sunny Gables.

More recently, Sunny Gables was used as the location for Little VVomen. LVV ( Little VVomen) featured some indoor shots and even had one room overlap with Poe Party (the study). LVV also had outdoor shots, and allowed more of the outside to be showcased then had been in Poe Party. Fans were very happy to see the return of the Sunny Gables location in LVV, and they hope that more Shipwrecked Projects will use it one day.

Haunted
Sunny Gables is also said to be haunted. During the production of Edgar Allan Poe's Murder Mystery Dinner Party and then later Little VVomen the shipwrecked crew had their fair share of paranormal experiences. Once they mentioned how they had heard a crash in another room and thought something had broken. But, when they went to investigate they found that a stapler gun had fallen off where it was resting and landed across the room. They've also mentioned that there is a painting of a woman whose eyes appear to follow you as you move.
