    Pete’s Tavern

    ‘ Yet another Sex and the City location that I stalked while in New York last month was a spot that touts itself as New York’s oldest continuously operating bar and restaurant.  And while there are actually quite a few watering holes claiming to be New York’s most long-established, Pete’s distinguishes itself thanks to the…

    Halloween 2008

    ‘ For Halloween this year, I desperately wanted my boyfriend and I to dress up like Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio.

    Don Antonio’s from “The Hills” and “Life in Pieces”

    ‘ I am a creature of habit, so it should come as no surprise that Don Antonio’s – the subject of my very first blog post back in 2007 – has remained my favorite Mexican restaurant ever since I first set foot inside it over a decade ago.  I initially learned about the Sawtelle-area eatery…

    Lou Ferrigno’s I Love You, Man House

    ‘ Another location from fave movie I Love You, Man  that I have been absolutely dying to stalk is the ultra modern, ultra large manse that belonged to Lou Ferrigno in the flick.  As always, I enlisted the help of fellow stalker Owen in tracking this location down.  Ironically enough, though, around that same time,…

    HarborPlace Tower from “The Craft”

    ‘ Today’s location is a special request from my good friends Katie and Lavonna, who, in a group text, both suggested I blog about some sites from The Craft as part of my Haunted Hollywood postings.  Now the 1996 horror flick is not one of my favorites and its locales have been pretty well documented…

    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…

    The Lost Horizon Apartment Complex from “Major Crimes”

    ‘ I have long been a fan of the television series Major Crimes (as well as its parent show The Closer) and though I love pretty much every single episode that airs, I do have a definitive favorite – Season 2’s “There’s No Place Like Home.”  For those who have not seen the episode (and…
