The studios are featured in the documentary film The Recording of Mr. Beast. Barry Burns has commented on the studio:

The Castle of Doom has actually turned out to be a really expensive gang hut. We have very expensive speakers and a broken dishwasher, so the priorities are right.^[1]

It took a bit of time to set up. As a result, we've discovered we're all useless with a lump hammer.^[2]
