🧠 Fun fact

Beverly Estate, also known as “The Beverly House,” is famous for its appearances in popular culture. One of the most notable features of the estate is its grand ballroom, which was used as a filming location for the iconic horse head scene in “The Godfather.” Additionally, the estate served as a backdrop for the memorable scenes in the movie “The Bodyguard,” starring Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner. Its Hollywood connections and architectural grandeur make Beverly Estate a true landmark in Los Angeles.

Originally owned by newspaper mogul William Randolph Hearst, the Beverly Estate was used in the scenes featuring Jack Woltz, the fictional movie producer who ends up on the wrong side of the Corleone family (which is never a good place to be).

It’s reportedly also the location where Woltz wakes up to find the bloody head of a dead horse in his bed. However, the filming location of the iconic scene has been hotly debated, with other claims suggesting the horse head scene was actually filmed in a Long Island estate.

The beautiful Beverly Hills estate has changed many hands since The Godfather filmed there, but it’s still standing.
