    Haunted Hollywood Tour Takes a Detour to SF!

    ‘ When I was in high school my good friend Dana and I were absolutely obsessed with a real life haunted house located close to where we lived. Every Friday afternoon like clockwork the two of us would make an after-school pilgrimage to the abandoned house known as the Carolands Mansion before stopping by a…

    Falken’s Cabin from "WarGames"

    ‘ So I realize I am like one of maybe ten holdouts left in the world, but I still have an AOL account.  I know, I know – 1995 called, it wants its email address back.  I think I’m finally ready to give it up, though, because the search function straight. up. SUCKS.  Formerly, it…

  • The Moonlight Mile Bar from “Beautiful Girls”

    The Moonlight Mile Bar from “Beautiful Girls”

    ‘ While going through my trusty stalking notebook this morning, I realized that I still have quite the backlog of Minnesota filming locations that I have yet to blog about.  Not to mention the slew of Seattle locales that I haven’t even yet begun to post!  I’m going to mix them all in with L.A.…

    Celeb’s Coffee of Choice

    ‘ While we all know that Britney Spears can’”‘”‘t live without her daily Starbucks ration, it seems that most other celebs in the LA area much prefer a smaller coffeehouse chain called Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. Because I am absolutely obsessed with coffee and Starbucks (if I had my way – and the money…

    Latest “L.A.” Mag Post – About the “Thriller” House

    ‘ Be sure to check out today’s Los Angeles magazine post – about the house from Michael Jackson’s Thriller – which is, sadly, my last Haunted Hollywood column for CityThink until next October.  My articles typically get published in the late morning/early afternoon hours.  And you can also check out my friend Owen’”‘”‘s post about…

  • The Peach Pit

    The Peach Pit

    ‘ Got a comment Tuesday night from Kevin who asked if I had a picture of the Peach Pit location from 90210. I briefly blogged about the Peach Pit on my first 90210 post a few months ago, but at the time I didn’”‘”‘t have a picture of the filming site. In reality, there were…

    Happy Presidents’ Day!

    ‘ I will be taking today off in honor of Presidents’ Day, but will be back tomorrow with a whole new post.  I hope all of my fellow stalkers had a fabulous three-day weekend! Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

  • The Weaver House from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”

    The Weaver House from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”

    ‘ Back in August, on the recommendation of my girl Miss Pinky Lovejoy, from the Thinking Pink blog, I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to see Crazy, Stupid, Love. and I can honestly say that it was one of the best movies I have seen all year.  In fact, I might even go so far…

  • The “Secrets and Lies” Brothel

    The “Secrets and Lies” Brothel

    ‘ I found the second season of Secrets and Lies abysmal – which is surprising being that, on paper, it contained several elements that should have made it a sure-fire hit in my book.  Murder mystery premise?  Check!  Shot in L.A.?  Check!  And it starred both AnnaLynne McCord (from my beloved 90210) and David James…

    Watson Drugs and Soda Fountain from “That Thing You Do!”

    ‘ Another That Thing You Do! locale that I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk while the two of us were in the city of Orange in early October was Watson Drugs and Soda Fountain, which popped up twice in the 1996 flick.  And while I really wanted to grab a bite there, sadly…
