Most of the filming for the original 1995 “Jumanji” was done in Canada, mainly in British Columbia, with a few key exterior locations in New Hampshire and other parts of New England in the USA.

Main filming locations

  • The fictional town of Brantford was largely created on soundstages at The Bridge Studios in Burnaby, just outside Vancouver, British Columbia.
  • Additional street and town exteriors were shot in various communities around Vancouver, including Delta and Tsawwassen, which doubled for parts of New England.
  • Several New England locations were used for authenticity, including areas in New Hampshire and Maine for specific exterior shots.

The Jumanji house and town

  • The Parrish family mansion (the “Jumanji house”) was primarily a set built in British Columbia, designed to resemble a historic New England home for the fictional Brantford setting.
  • Other key town elements, like shops and streets that flood or get overrun by stampeding animals, were built or dressed on Canadian locations and studio backlots to allow complex visual effects work.

Notable real-world spots

  • Some cemetery scenes were filmed at Mount Caesar Cemetery in Swanzey, New Hampshire, which provided an old New England graveyard atmosphere.
  • Coastal and small‑town exteriors evoking New England were a mix of real New Hampshire/Maine locations and coastal areas around Vancouver adapted to match the look.
