Season 3 began production in Dublin at the end of February 2026, continuing the show’s tradition of filming in Ireland. According to Netflix’s official announcement, the series has now expanded to include Paris as a production location, marking a geographic shift for the gothic drama.

Netflix Tudum notes that while primary sets remain in Ireland, the French city makes practical sense for production given its proximity, though the storyline relevance remains a mystery for now.
