where does casper take place

The story of Casper takes place primarily at Whipstaff Manor, a mansion located in the fictional town of Friendship, Maine. Friendship, Maine is the setting where the main events of the film unfold, including Casper the Friendly Ghost haunting the mansion and the interactions with the human characters. Though the movie is set in Friendship, Maine, the actual filming was done mainly in the nearby resort town of Camden, Maine, and some scenes in other locations such as Universal Studios for interior and special scenes.
