Film crews working on Guillermo del Toro's upcoming adaptation of Frankenstein have taken Edinburgh’s Royal Mile back in time.
The area around St Giles’ Cathedral has been transformed as production on the Netflix period drama arrives in the Capital, with Victorian looking set pieces having appeared in West Parliament Square and a gallows having appeared in Makar’s Close.
Directed by del Toro, production on this latest adaptation of Mary Shelley’s classic has been taking place around Scotland in locations including Dunecht House in Aberdeenshire and Glasgow Cathedral.
Starring Jacob Elordi, Oscar Isaac, Mia Goth and Christoph Waltz, Frankenstein is expected to continue filming around the Royal Mile until September 17.
