THE X-Files explores other-worldly beings and the supernatural - though unfortunately the whole thing is shot here on Earth.

Here are some of the best spots the X-Files have filmed...and where you can find them.

4 Here's where X Files fans can find some of the series most iconic locations

Where is the X Files filmed?

Since the shows first season, the series has primarily been filmed in Vancouver, British Columbia.

The show, which is about to enter is eleventh season, shot the first five seasons in that location.

However, for the sixth season, it was moved to Los Angeles in order to accommodate the leading man, David Duchovney.

It remained in that location for three seasons, but when it was rebooted, it returned to its original, Canadian location.

Where in Vancouver did the series shoot?

Britannia Mine Museum - 'Paperclip'

Located on Britannia Beach, the Britannia Mine Museum is a museum created from a former copper mine.

In the third season's episode Paperclip, Mulder was seen hunting through the underground tunnels in order to locate a filing cabinet which has records of his DNA.

However, the building was renovated in 2005, and as a result doesn't look much like its starring role on the small screen.

4 Mulder and Scully take The Great Mutato to a Cher concert at the Commodore Ballroom

The Commodore Ballroom - 'The Post-Modern Prometheus'

The Commodore Ballroom saw Mulder, Scully and a Cher impersonator in the wacky episode where the FBI agents search for The Great Mutato.

An homage to the black-and-white film Frankenstein, Mutato is a two-faced man created by a mad scientist who has been cast out by his town.

The episode ends with them taking Mutato to a Cher concert to make him happy - and Mulder and Scully are seen slow dancing to Walking in Memphis as Mutato beams with happiness.

If you want to go visit the place yourself, you can find it at 868 Granville Street.

Riverview Hospital - 'Eve', 'The Calusari', 'The End'

Riverview Hospital has been used for many locations during shoots for The X Files.

Closed in 2012, the facility was originally a mental health institution and dates back to at least 1913.

The buildings and its surrounding areas has featured at least once in nearly every series shot in Vancouver, including its first ever, pilot episode.

It has also been used for Prison Break, Smallville and Supernatural.

4 Mulder couldn't get enough of the Ovaltine's sweet potato pie

The Ovaltine Cafe - 'Jose Chung’s From Outer Space'

The Ovaltine Cafe is the central location for Season three's now iconic sweet potato pie eating scene.

In the episode, Mulder is seen in the Ovaltine interviewing his suspects and witnesses to a suspected alien abduction of two teenagers.

It dealt with the idea of memory implantation, leaving the duo dealing with everyone having a different story to match the facts.

You can find it at 251 E Hastings Street, Vancouver.

4 The Grouse Mountain Skyride was home to one of a cat and mouse chase in the sky

Grouse Mountain Skyride - 'Duane Barry', 'Ascension'

Based in North Vancouver, the Grouse Mountain Skyride is perfect for X-Files fans.

Renamed Skyland for the show's second season, the episodes saw Scully kidnapped by Duane Barry and taken to Skyland to confront where he was abducted by aliens.

The tramway is the scene of an intense stand-off between Duane and Mulder who is trying to save his friend.

To add an even spookier factor, in real life some theorists are convinced that a plane that crashed there in 1954 was caused by aliens.

The crash killed a USAF pilot, and the wreckage of the ship is still there for people to see.
