Filmmakers convinced the screenwriters to change the setting of the film and to Tybee Island, thus allowing them to incorporate landmarks such as the Tybee Island Light Station and the Savannah Historic District.
Po treh mesecih in odkritju »koče Adams«, južno od Tybee Islanda, so Tybee in sosednja mesta pozno marca 2009 postali kraj snemanja, občasno pa so snemali tudi v Wilmington in Wrightsville Beach, Severna Karolina, kjer so scene kasneje spremenili.
