  1. There is someone who knows the address and the street of the main house of Marty Coslaw and the home with the garage of Sheriff Joe Haller? Also home early in the film, when the girl in her room on the 2nd floor would be suicide, the werewolf rises and jumps into the window ... who also know the address of that house its'd be really cool :)

    I thank you and expects from you !! My email is charmingguy69@hotmail.com

  2. I have a facebook page that has a few more locations, including where Marty's house was, and Stella's house. She was the one trying to kill herself. Still looking for some locations myself. Can't find the location for Virgil's Service station, Mac's Gun Shop, and the building that had the display window for Andy Fairton's Sporting Goods store. Pics are in the Photo Albums. https://www.facebook.com/silverbulletmovie/?ref=bookmarks

    1. Great page! I enjoyed all of the location photos. Would you mind sharing the addresses of where Marty's house was as well as Stella's house?

    2. 34.212631, -77.882448 on Google Maps is Stella's House. Marty's house was moved to a different location but some of the big trees are still there. The place is New Centre Market now. Kinda sad, but lots can change in 30 years I guess. The numbers for Marty's place on Google Maps are 34.245594, -77.878281

  4. With some help from a friend in NC and his sources, Virgil's Service has been found! It's changed a lot over the years, but it is for sure the location. It's in Castle Hayne, NC. 34.330352,-77.915709 on Google Maps. It's now known as Fred's Body Shop.

  6. It's fascinating to me how many things are filmed in Wilmington, NC. It's not really known as a big filming hub, but anytime you need a "small town" setting, it's used.
