Hey guys, it's Emma.
And Lucy,
and Kiernan.
And we're here with Young Hollywood to tell you about our new film The Blackcoat's Daughter.
Why are you doing this? Do you believe in God, Joan? Ever tried to look for him? I look for him in the unlikely things that happened. Little coincidences. Blackcoat's Daughter what was in the holy waters they forgotten.
Kiernan and Lucy, tell me about the scariest moment you had on set.
Oh man. I think all the scenes that took place in a boiler room were a little bit creepy because there was not much light and it was cold and it was all the things.
We'll say that room before the boiler room and a long corridor that I had to walk down in the dark was horrible. To me, just from the moment I got there before we even started shooting, it was eerie. It was weird and it was the longest two weeks of my entire life just with snow falling every morning out the window. Um, but it was kind of poetic as well.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah.
Okay, number two, tell us about any nightmares or scary dreams you had while filming this movie.
Oh man. Well, I after I read the script, I I I was up for like two days after like I would wake up in the middle of the night cuz I was in New Orleans filming when I read the script. And I just got freaked out and I was staying by myself and it really like the script wedged its way into my brain and started really eating it and scarring it and I couldn't sleep.
I do remember cuz we were staying in a sort of an apartment while we were there. Every night I just made sure the door is locked. And I never do that. That's not that's not me. But every I it was like It was
At least that's more logical than me looking under the bed. As though something's going to be there.
Well, I'm scared of something.
Well, that's not That's the one. That's actually smart. Practical.
But I'm still checking it.
Yeah.
You're still checky with it.
Yeah. Yeah.
And it did look like it was freezing while we were filming, which is true. It was freezing. What was the coldest that it got when you guys were shooting? What was the moment?
Wasn't it the coldest winter they'd had in like 40 years?
Yeah. 50 years?
Yeah. Well, when I had like fake blood all over me and it started to freeze onto my body and like almost rip my skin off, that's when I knew that it was really cold.
Yeah. I think just whenever I jumped for joy that it wasn't in the negatives, that's also that it was really cold. It was like, great, it's two. It's awesome.
Exactly.
And any night shoots outside were brutal.
Mhm.
Intense.
Yes.
Okay. Are we doing rapid fire?
Yeah, do you want to start?
Okay. Yeah. Okay, just whip 'em out. When you're watching a horror film, are you eating popcorn or candy?
Both.
Both.
Both.
Are you So I just whip them out. Yeah, whip them out. Yeah. What about you?
Popcorn.
Okay. Yeah. Popcorn more than candy. Are you covering your ears or covering your eyes?
Covering your eyes.
I don't understand the ears thing.
No, it's fine. You're not going to cover your ears and watch it. No.
That's I do that. Because
Because it's the noises that scare me. It's the Like the like Like it's not really the person like jumping out. It's like the noise that accompanies it. So I'll like plug my ears like this and be watching like this.
I will I'll watch through my fingers. So I can like blur it a bit.
Deal with it.
Um, we're doing so well in the rapidness of this. Okay. Um, do you sleep with the lights on or off?
Off. And an eye mask. And the curtains drawn. All of it.
Yeah. All that's watching a horror film.
Yeah. Yeah. And then I usually get paralyzed with fear, so I can't move from under the duvet and I pray for morning.
I have a dog in my bed, so I'm not that scared.
Exactly.
God it.
Do you leave your bedroom door open or closed?
Closed.
Closed.
Yeah. Shut me in. Make it dark.
Yeah. I get too scared with the door open.
Yeah. Cuz that that freaks me out.
Yes, I've done it.
Too much opportunity. That's scary.
Too much opportunity. If you hear the door open, you might have a second to do something before the the the demon comes in to get you.
But I feel like if that happened, I would just pretend to be asleep.
Yeah, but they know the truth. They know. They know. They they've been there too. I've I've thought that. I'm like, I'm like, do you think that I seem like I'm asleep? And then I'm like my breathing is laborious. Like they'll know. They know I'm scared.
