Filming of Halloween Town
Interestingly, if you were a fan of Disney Channel's sports-fantasy film The Luck of the Irish, which released in 2001, then you might have noticed a few similarities in Halloweentown High (2004). Both movies filmed scenes at Juan Diego Catholic High School in Utah. Coming to the filming of Halloween Town, the classic autumnal film was actually made in the middle of July. Director Duwayne Dunham told MTV News in a 2015 interview that the actors would often walk around set with part of their costumes off when they weren't filming a scene "because it was the dead of summer" and very hot.
