“At one point, we had 30 different artists making different statues and gargoyles and elements.
So in the quad, we have eight beautifully rendered gargoyles.
Nothing should feel new.

Nothing should feel like it’s store bought.
It all has to have a patina of age.”
And yes, Millar adds, “Tim designed the tree.”
With all this talk of Easter eggs, let’s get specific.
“In the reflecting pool under the tree, there is a statue of Ophelia,” Millar continues.
“So you see this figure who’s semi-submerged.
Moving inside, we have Wednesday’s dorm room.
“We love the idea of her being in this attic space,” Millar says.
“So it feels very Gothic because of rafters.”
“The window was in the script,” Gough says.
“We really wanted to differentiate between Enid and Wednesday.
Enid obviously loves color, loves k-pop, is very friendly, is bright and bouncy.
But Wednesday does have at least one other piece of decor.
“She has a gramophone and she loves to listen to old vinyl,” Millar continues.
“She’s very old school.
She does not have a computer.
She does not have a cell phone.
She doesn’t believe in social media.
Wednesdaywill hit Netflix this fall.
