Spike has been blasting out a lot of news lately regarding their TV adaptation of Stephen King’s “The Mist“, mainly regarding the cast of the show. In each of the press releases, they state that production would be taking place this summer and it appears that it’s actually kicked off as a Redditor found themselves on set and managed to snap a few photos.

Reddit user SuccessfulSuccess explains that they were at the Bedford Place Mall in Bedford, Nova Scotia, which has apparently been renamed the “Bridgeville Mall” for the purpose of the show. They also explain that the crew was, “…shooting outdoors when I was there and [while I] didn’t manage to get a photo, I did manage to get a few shots of the store inside that they will be trapped in.”
Below is a gallery of the interior of the mall, which shows empty stores and that’s really about it. There isn’t much to see but with a little bit of imagination, it feels like this could be a darker take on Dawn of the Dead, only this time with extra dimensional beings instead of zombies.
The show, “…tells the story of a foreboding mist that arrives in one small town ushering in a terrifying new reality for its residents, putting their humanity to the test. What will people do to survive when blinded by fear?”
Spike will be creating 10 one-hour episodes. The show is scheduled to premiere in 2017.
