An Ellwood, Indiana Motel
An unnamed motel in Ellwood, Indiana is the scene of UFO-related hijinks in this Season 6, episode 9 installment of the TV show Supernatural. I didn't use this room as a bedroom in the A-Frame. Instead, I built it just to recreate scenes from the episode.
The room had an Americana theme with a corn room divider, kitschy art, and rustic green paneling, and used the huge headboard seen repeatedly in various motel rooms throughout Supernatural's 15-year run.
I recreated the dotty chenille bedspreads with paint on a pair of thrift store pillowcases.
The original curtains were blue, but I used some fabric I had that seemed to fit the bill. I was delighted to have a miniature green rotary phone because if you look closely, you can see the motel was equipped with a seriously old school green rotary phone.
Dean: "Well, uh, there was this... God help me, Sam, there was this bright white light!"
Sam: "It’s okay. Safe room."
Dean: "And then suddenly, I was, uh, I was in a different place. And there were these beings, and they were too bright to look at, but I could feel them pulling me towards this sort of table—"Sam: "Probing table!"
Dean: "God! Don't say that out loud!"
