What Happens When You Try To Visit Dawson’s Creek

A dear friend of mine made the trek down to Wilmington, North Carolina and was met by a scary man with a gun. In other words, DON’T BOTHER!

I know, right? Now tell your friends!
What Happens When You Try To Visit Dawson&...

1. When you arrive at the property where Dawson’s Creek was filmed, you’ll come across this sign.

(It IS Dawson’s Creek.)

7. AHHHHH! Terrifying redneck with a gun who WILL shoot you if he catches you on his property. Didn’t you read the sign?

This is a REAL STORY! My friend Tori was happily snapping all of the photos above when she heard the click of a rifle and turned around to see the property owner pointing a gun at her. She ran as fast as she could away from the property, got into her rental car, and drove far, far away. WE DO NOT RECOMMEND TRYING THIS!

8. But if you already have a trip planned, you can always check out this street instead:

      People just really need to get over themselves. This was on television. It wasn’t where you visited as a child or an old home, it was where a fake person lived a fake life and pretended to do things for an hour a week. If it meant so much to you that you have to trespass on private property to look at where it was filmed, and then get ANGRY or pouty when they don’t want you stomping through their begonias or looking in their living room windows, then I think you really need to reevaluate what you are doing with your life.

      I’ve been to the actual house and the owners are nice. The neighbors, not so much. They had to figure that by allowing their houses to be used on television that people would show up to see them. I knocked on the door first for permission and would have left had they told me to, so I do think it’s wrong for random people to show up and walk on a property without permission. As to why people are stalking the wrong location, that’s just stupid. And people eating lunch on strangers’ property? Wrong. I’m sorry Lee that people are inconsiderate and not the brightest and you felt the need to put up a tacky sign to keep them away. It’s kind of like telling a child not to touch something though and the first thing they do is touch it. I think the sign will make more people want to go on your property because you’re telling them not to. It’s a shame you can’t find a way to leave booby traps to harm their cars if they dare try. “Honest toss never loss”

      I understand that people don’t want all kinds of fans roaming around their property all the time, but to me it’s kind of sad that one person can own something that means something to so many people and kind of rob them of that small amount of fun or joy. If I bought a house used in a TV show or movie I’d allow people to come by if they were respectful and quick. This guy is kind of a party pooper :(

        I get where you’re coming from, but I think you would feel differently when someone is creeping about your property at 2am. Or you get out of the shower and someone is peeking through your bathroom window. Or you’re trying to have a nice, quiet family barbeque and suddenly some random fans crash it. I mean, even though the location was used for a program that means a lot to many people it’s still private property that was probably owned by these people before the show.

        Party pooper my ass. It isn’t YOURS, it was a damn tv show. I mean I love Doctor Who and Arrested Development but I would not presume to feel someone was a “party pooper” or owed me something because they let one of those shows film on their property and won’t let the general public slog through their home and property. I would have to quickly get over myself and realize it does not belong to me, it was on TELEVISION and realize I need to do something more with my life right this second.

      You can’t just shoot someone for trespassing on your land. Well, maybe in Florida.

    • Richard Parker 7 months ago

      I’m not a fan of guns by any means, but what do you expect will happen when you trespass on private property? Trespassing? No! Bad!

      There are a lot of other places where they filmed that you CAN visit! Try Market Street and the Black Cat Shop, which was where the video store was. Hell’s Kitchen from the last season is downtown and the riverfront was used in tons of episodes! Airlie Gardens also has tons of used locations.
