Is Templeton Secondary School really a hotbed for vampires and superheroes? Well, not quite. But it has been home to them on screen! This unassuming school, nestled in the Grandview-Woodland neighbourhood, has a star-studded secret: it’s a favourite filming location for Hollywood. Templeton Secondary School, established in 1927, might seem like a regular school at first glance. It boasts a rich history, named after a former Vancouver mayor, William Templeton, and living by its motto “Pro Bono Omnium” – “For the Good of All”. But step inside, and you might recognize the hallways from shows like “Smallville” and “Kyle XY”. Remember the iconic “Smallville High” and “Beachwood High” murals? They’re still here! This hallway, fondly dubbed the “Smallville Hallway” by students, has witnessed the footsteps of numerous stars. From the teenage drama of “Smallville” to the mysterious world of “The Vampire Diaries”, Templeton Secondary School has transformed itself for countless productions. Even the “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” films and the dark comedy “iZombie” have used this school as their backdrop. So, while you won’t find Clark Kent cramming for exams or Elena Gilbert dodging vampires, you can soak in the cinematic aura of Templeton Secondary School. It’s a place where fiction meets reality, and where a simple school hallway can become a portal to different worlds.
