Intense 'The Watcher' Scenes Filmed At DeCicco & Sons Larchmont

LARCHMONT, NY — If you think grocery shopping in the Hudson Valley is dull, you might just need a little more plot development and foreshadowing in your life.

If you pick the right time of day, shopping at DeCicco & Sons Larchmont can be a relaxing experience (the supermarket even has a wine bar inside of it), but the tranquil atmosphere in which to peer at organic Tuscan kale and choose from a dizzying selection of artisan cheeses may never be the same after watching Episode 6 of Netflix's "The Watcher."

We don't want to give away any spoilers, but let's just say a carefully choreographed shopping cart ambush led to a major confrontation. Definitely more excitement than most of us see doing the weekly grocery shopping. Usually, the height of drama when visiting the store involves finding a close parking space.

We already asked earlier this month if you watched "The Watcher" on Netflix and wondered why the house at the center of the creepy story based on real events looks so familiar.

Filming on the show took place across New York, from September 2021 - March 2022, primarily in Westchester County. According to Dirt, the producers of the show chose to use a house on Warriston Lane in the prestigious Milton Point area of Rye to stand in for the creepy house in New Jersey. It seems that only the exterior of the Rye property was used in the Netflix series, while interiors were movie sets built to resemble the interior of the New Jersey house where the chilling events took place.

It turns out that the producers of the show also turned to DeCicco's in Larchmont to film the two main characters grocery shopping and making plans to ambush their suspected tormentor in the tortilla aisle.

The limited series, "The Watcher," directed by Ryan Murphy, and starring Naomi Watts, Bobby Cannavale, Mia Farrow and Jennifer Coolidge, follows married couple Dean and Nora Brannock who move into their dream home in the suburbs with their children. But soon after moving in, they begin to realize some peculiar things going on in their new neighborhood. The family starts receiving disturbing letters from someone called "The Watcher" who says it is their duty to "watch over" the house and begins terrorizing the family. The seven-part series is inspired by real-life events, in Westfield, New Jersey.

You can watch the official trailer for the series below:

The real-life saga of "The Watcher," began in 2014 when Derek and Maria Broaddus purchased a 1905 Dutch colonial located in Westfield, NJ for $1.3 million, hoping to raise their family there.

However, before they were even able to move in, an anonymous letter writer began sending threatening letters with disturbing references to their three children.

The family said they were too scared to move into the six-bedroom house due to the threats the letters contained, such as "allow me to watch you and track you as you move through the house" and referring to the children as "young blood."

To this day, no one knows the identity of the real-life letter writer who sent the horrifying messages to the family.

The Broaddus family tried to sell the home multiple times and was forced to eventually drop the price. In Aug. of 2019, the home was finally sold for $959K to another couple, Andrew and Allison Carr.

The Broaddus couple also tried to sue the previous owners of the home in 2016, claiming they knew of "The Watcher's" threatening letters but did not disclose any information while selling the home. A Superior Court judge eventually dismissed the lawsuit in 2017.

According to Jersey Digs, a conspiracy theorist from Cranford believes that Derek Broaddus, an insurance salesman from Portland, Maine, was behind the letters all along. He finds it curious that Broaddus is from the same hometown as Stephen King and believes he took inspiration from the famous author.
