    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, while perusing through Chris Epting’s Marilyn Monroe Dyed Here: More Locations of America’s Pop Culture Landmarks in order to get a little inspiration for my Haunted Hollywood postings, I came across an entry about the home used in What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?

    ‘ Though I am unabashedly a tween at heart, one show that I never got into was Lizzie McGuire.  I have always liked Hilary Duff, so I am unsure of why exactly the show remained off my radar.  Regardless, I was thrilled when a fellow stalker named Gina posted a comment on my site recently…

    Spencer’s House and Barn from “Pretty Little Liars”

    ‘ Though all of the homes featured on Pretty Little Liars are pretty darn amazing design-wise, my personal favorite, hands-down, is the farm-like residence where Spencer Hastings (Troian Bellisario) and her family live.  So when I began tracking down the locales used in the pilot, which was shot in Vancouver, Spencer’s pad was at the…
