    Los Angeles Pet Memorial Park

    ‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk ever since first moving to Southern California in 2000 was the Los Angeles Pet Memorial Park in Calabasas.  For whatever reason, though, in over twelve years time, I had never made it out there.  Then, this past September, while gathering addresses for my annual Haunted Hollywood…

    Santa Fe Depot from “The Trouble with Angels”

    ‘ It is no secret that I love abandoned places, especially during this time of year.  (What I wouldn’t give to be able to see this in person!)  Recently I stalked Monrovia’s former Santa Fe Railroad Depot and it had my heart going pitter-patter.  The now defunct train station is also a filming location and,…

    Tilly’s House from “Flaked”

    ‘ I never thought I’d say I’m in love with a gate, but here we are.  Back in March 2016, my Los Angeles magazine editor assigned me a piece chronicling the locations from the then-new Netflix series Flaked.  I got to work researching right away and one spot immediately stood out among the rest –…

    ‘ During my recent Relativity location-finding fest, I also managed to track down the apartment building where Leo Roth (David Conrad) lived with his quirky roommate, Doug (Adam Goldberg) – who was actually my favorite character – on the show.  I really could kick myself over this one, though, because I began searching for the…

    Neve Campbell’s Former Haunted House

    ‘ I love a good haunted house, especially at this time of year.  One owned by a celebrity is even better.  One owned by the star of my favorite horror film of all time?  Well, I can’t think of anything more thrilling – or more perfectly suited to my annual October postings.  So when I…
