'Twilight' fans can now rent Bella Swan's iconic Washington house on Airbnb
ST. HELENS, OREGON: If there is one thing that excites people more than the cinematic experience itself, it is the gorgeous and at times beyond-of-reach extravagant houses they film in, which are subsequently referred to as the character's house. However, since the arrival of Airbnb, things have shifted because now people can shell out an acceptable price to live in their favorite character's home for a couple of days.
One such house is that of Bella Swan (Kristen Stewart) from Stephenie Meyer's 'Twilight', known as the 'Twilight Swan House', where Bella lived with her father Charlie (Billy Burke) and the two of them tried to mend their estrangement. Fans can now rent and live like Bella Swan in 'Twilight Swan House', as the owners decided to list it on Airbnb for people to have a unique experience.

Experince the ‘Twilight Swan House’
In the film, Bella moves to Forks, Washington, where she lives with her father Charlie, who is the Sheriff, and the two individuals attempt to mend their broken connection. However, she gets caught up and falls in love with a vampire, Edward Cullen (Robert Pattinson), and spends an extensive quantity of time cooped up in her house, which fans adored. Fans can now rent the same four-bedroom, two-bathroom 1930s house with a group of friends and spend a few days in bliss as Bella Swan.
The interior of this house was also used for filming, and Amber Neufeld and Dean Koenig, who purchased the house in 2002, chose to keep the color scheme used by the designers on the set when they altered the space into Bella's house. The Airbnb listing for the house says that if you're ‘Team Edward’, you can sleep in the ‘lookout’ room, which overlooks the front yard and is where Bella gazes out the window to see Edward parked. Meanwhile, ‘Team Jacob’ supporters can sleep in the 'Jacob Black guest room', located off the primary entry downstairs.
What is the rent for ‘Twilight Swan House’?
The estimated rent for ‘Twilight Swan House’ is $400 per night for weekdays and Sundays and $450 per night for Fridays and Saturdays, and it can accommodate up to 10 guests. The owners have encouraged the fans to take pictures re-creating their favorite scenes from the movie.
'Twilight' series adaptation in works
Lionsgate recently revealed that a series for television based on Stephenie Meyer's books is in the works, and even though it has been more than ten years since the finale movie from the series — 'Twilight Breaking Dawn: Part 2' — premiered on-screen, die-hard fans have remained dedicated to the love story between Bella and Edward. Sinead Daly is attached to write the script for the upcoming 'Twilight' series. According to sources, Daly is working with Lionsgate TV to determine the specific take on 'Twilight' and whether it will be a remake of Meyer's books or a different offshoot.
Meanwhile, after a brief stint at Netflix, the 'Twilight' films have recently relocated to NBCUniversal's Peacock streaming service.
