Finding the Camarilla

The Camarilla headquarters in episode 2.07 is at  6900 256 Street, Langley, British Columbia V4W 1T9

This is how we see it on screen, just before Adil uses his Tarim work to destroy the building.

It is a real building, but the on screen shot is a composite of the building and a completely separate field.  In reality it is located beside a railway track.  It is now a historic site. 

We met the owners of the building, who gave us permission to take photos and go on their land.  The building is one of the historic electricity substations used to power the interurban railways.  The railway track is still in use, albeit not very frequently.  We were warned about the possibility of a train, but we didn’t encounter one. 

This is the building itself. 

And the railway in front.

The owners said that the building had been used many times by film crews and had appeared on lots of shows.  They asked about it on Motherland and we said that it got destroyed.  That seemed to amuse them, it seems to be a common fate for the building.  They told about it being filmed for Supernatural.  The Supernatural people blew it up too. 

In the onscreen shot, the building appears to have a red door.  The owners said that the door used to be that colour but was repainted, and agreed that it would have still been red when it was used to film Motherland.
