You Can Finally Live Your Twilight Dreams

by

Although our favorite vampire couple’s story came to a close almost 7 years ago, Twilight fans can now dive into the story and experience the life of protagonist Bella Swan. The house that was used for filming Bella’s family home is now up for grabs on Airbnb, allowing you to live your wildest Twilight Dreams.

Forget Forks, Washington…

Although the vampire saga essentially put Forks, Washington on the map, Bella’s house in the movie is actually located in St. Helens, Oregon. Located 4 hours from Forks, this small town with a population a little over 13,000 has actually been used for other films before! Remember Halloweentown, the classic Disney Channel Original Movie that brought our favorite spooky holiday to life? Yup, filmed in St. Helens (and is even celebrated there too!)

Original Twilight Amenities

When it comes to the amenities one can experience for the former Swan Household, this rental has 5 bedrooms, two bathrooms, and can host up to 10 people! Not only that, but the quaint charm that we loved about the house from the movie is still present today. Even the green kitchen cabinets are there!

A Twilight Recap

For the non Twi-hards, if you need some reminders about what Twilight was all about, look no further. The 4-story saga by Stephanie Meyers begins with teenager Bella Swan’s move to Forks, Washington to live with her dad. However, things start to get awry as vampire in disguise Edward Cullen falls in love with the human Bella, a potentially grave disaster.

Along the course of this forbidden love story is another romantic interest, human-werewolf Jacob Black. To say the battle for Bella’s heart is a chaotic thrilling adventure is an understatement. In fact, the books and movies were so popular worldwide, that it earned $2.5 billion at box offices globally.

In addition to having the same setup as the original house in the films, there are even memorabilia items within the rental. Life-size cutouts of Bella and Jacob can be found within the home to keep guests entertained (and make for a hilarious instagram post).

It’s Time To Book!

All that’s left is the price for renting… To relive this Twilight experience, you can book the Airbnb up to 8 months in advance at the rate or $330 a night and $440 on Friday and Saturday. That’s not too bad if you go with a whole crew!

A Disney Dream Come True

«Dream Come True» is right- almost all of us have dressed up at some point in our life as a Disney Princess. Yet this talented 19-year old gets to play the role ‘for real,’ and will serve as the dream and role model for many more girls in the future. As a well-established singer, Halle’s voice is sure to carry the amazing tunes we all know and love and give them a vibrant new take.

The Search Process

It was not an easy search process to find the right person to play the part of the renowned singing mermaid. After many auditions and applicants, director Rob Marshall said «it was abundantly clear that Halle possesses that rare combination of spirit, heart, youth, innocence, and substance — plus a glorious singing voice — all intrinsic qualities necessary to play this iconic role.»

Halle’s Stardom Prior To Disney

While this position is Halle Bailey’s biggest to date, she has already had several years in the spotlight alongside her sister, Chloe. The two rose to fame back in 2013 when their cover of Beyoncé’s song, «Pretty Hurts,» was noticed by the «Single Ladies» singer herself. Since then, the video has received over 17 million views and Beyoncé additionally signed them to her record label, Parkwood Entertainment.

To say having Beyoncé’s guidance has been beneficial would be a complete understatement. The icon has helped Halle and her sister grow professionally and even had them open for the Beyoncé & Jay-Z On The Run Tour II. We also can’t forget that Beyoncé is also a part of the Disney team now, voicing Nala in the soon-to-be-released «The Lion King» (in case you need a date idea)! We’re sure that had an influence in the final decision!
