Inside Crispin Glover's Restored Chateau in the Czech Republic

Publish date: 2024-05-19

I didn't know he had that kind of money

"The actor-director personally restored the 17-bedroom, 20-acre estate, which was once owned by an opera-commissioning count and served as a Communist medical testing facility."

I hope he burned a bushel of sage, laid in a supply of holy water/oil, and brought in a priest and a space healer to purge that house of evil and tortured spirits.

Fascinating.

I've always loved him, but a confirmed bachelor in his 50s based out of Silver Lake setting up shop on a private compound filled with pheasants 45 minutes from Prague?

He refused to return for the Back to the Future sequels and the producers went ahead and used his likeness anyway. he sued Universal and Spielberg and received a huge settlement that has allowed him to live life on his own terms.

He dated a (female) friend of my boyfriend's back in the 90s and he was apparently at the time a big collector of medical equipment - he came to my boyfriend's apartment for a party once and drooled over a stainless steel surgical table my boyfriend had inherited from his father (who was a vet)

Gorgeous! I wish there were larger and more pics.

I'm scared of what he's into... Animals, people... dark web, hooks and chains... scary.

That place is ugly as sin. I wouldn't feel comfortable in single room. Looks like a haunted mansion and it's a very odd purchase for a single man.

It's just hideous.

I think it’s creepy. Aside from communist medical experiments, the previous owner disappeared. No thank you.

He is obsessed with medical procedure. This makes perfect sense.

Didn’t you read the article? It’s for his own movie and TV production sets. It’s not his private residence, though I’m sure he stays in the master apartment often. His main home is in Cali.

I have no doubt however that he’s doing something else incredibly weird there. He’s an odd duck and he’s probably living out some sick fantasies in that place.

The pictures are lovely, but the place looks as livable as a cemetary and I agree that the whole setup sounds creepy.

What the hell kind of films is he making out there, anyway? Or is he putting out bizarre fetish porn under another name or something? I agree that the place probably cost next to nothing to buy, but the restoration took some real bucks, and he doesn't seem to have much legitimate income.

I love his song "the Pied Piper"

The place is like a movie studio. You can make anything there.

Haven’t Europeans ever heard of box springs? Those beds look so uncomfortable.

R6, he asked for one million and reportedly settled for around 800k.

Great pictures. Get ready for a CDAN blind item cult, child prostitution and some random dictator.

I looked him up and he looks crazy like someone else posted about. He looks like you'd imagine Patrick Bateman of American Psycho to look.

Most famous people with lots of money get Swiss Chalets, or homes in regions in Southern France, or parts of Italy instead.

R18 why is he so obsessed with medical procedures, surgery, etc.? At least he bought and restored a historical building instead of building a brand new place.

Glover has residences in Los Angeles and the Czech Republic. His residence (45 minutes east of Prague by train) Zámek Konárovice, is a 17th century 20-acre (8.1 ha) chateau that is recognized as historically significant by the Czech government. The property requires constant upkeep and restoration; according to Glover, "[The property] is a lifetime project that will be in continuous flux and repair for hundreds of years from now, as it has been the hundreds of years before I 'owned' it."[18]

From 2002 until 2003, Glover was dating Alexa Lauren, a Penthouse magazine Pet of the Month for September 1999.

^I can vouch for what R1 is saying regarding his strange demeanor. When I met him, he came across as an arrogant, above-it-all dipshit. In a word, poisonous.

Those are big-ass peacocks.

I love Crispin.

I think the house looks amazing, but it does look as livable as a cemetery.

I know it's contrary to DL's conventional wisdom, which says that any unmarried actor over 40 is a closet case, but fuck-- have any of you ever met any actors?

So many of them are borderline insane and it's not the least bit surprising they can't sustain a relationship.
