What We Do in the Shadows may have bid viewers adieu in late 2024, but the vampire comedy from FX is gearing up for its final bow as the show celebrates a slew of Emmy nominations.
While the show did land a nomination for Outstanding Comedy Series overall, as well as Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series, What We Do in the Shadows‘ incredible creative and technical teams have also earned notable nominations, including Outstanding Production Design for a Narrative Program (Half-Hour), Outstanding Picture Editing for a Single Camera Comedy Series, Outstanding Period or Fantasy/Sci-Fi Makeup (Non-Prosthetic), and Outstanding Perior or Fantasy/Sci-Fi Hairstyling.
And in celebration of those teams, we have an extra-special peek behind the scenes of the comedy, as a never-before-seen video walks fans through the backstage and mansion the vampires lived in onscreen. While Nandor (Kayvan Novak), Nadja (Natasia Demetriou), Laszlo (Matt Berry), Colin Robinson (Mark Proksch), and human Guillermo (Harvey Guillen) may have occupied the Staten Island abode, What We Do in the Shadows‘ mansion was actually built on a set in a Toronto-based studio.

TV Insider was on set for the fifth and sixth seasons of the series, where we captured a couple of the images seen above. But this new exclusive sneak peek offers an even better peek behind the curtain.
As seen in the exciting video above, it’s an all-hands-on-deck team effort as props are moved from room to room, and the walk-through offers a glimpse into the massive and nearly full construction of the house inside the soundstage.
Among some of the highlights are the main foyer heading into the house, as well as a glimpse at the kitchen, parlor, library, and much more. Don’t miss it for yourself, check out the video above, and let us know what you loved most about the vampires’ mansion in the comments section.
