Bobby’s House

Located on Princess Street, just a few doors down from the Wilmington National Cemetery. That green leafy madness on the fringe of the lawn is still there after all these years, but many of the trees have since been taken down. Bobby Keller (Corey Feldman) calls this home, along with his crotchety father Gus (Alex Rocco) and goofy mother Kit (Victoria Jackson).

Interestingly, when Ike (Harry Dean Stanton) walks Bobby/Coleman to Bobby’s house, they walk on the opposite side of the street, and away from his house. This is that movie magic that allows a location to be flexible if shot creatively.
