  • Scream – One More Time

    Scream – One More Time

    ‘ Many, many years ago – back when I first started college, in fact – I did a little stalking of my fave horror movie, . I guess you can say that I have been pretty much obsessed with that movie ever since it premiered back in 1996. At the time I was still living…

  • The Old Orange County Courthouse from “American Horror Story: Asylum”

    The Old Orange County Courthouse from “American Horror Story: Asylum”

    ‘ It is a sad truth that many filming locations are not publicly accessible.  (I’m looking at you Fremont Place, Golden Oak Ranch, the Jack Rabbit Slim’”‘”‘s exterior from Pulp Fiction, pretty much all of the houses from Scream, and Venice High School!  Yes, I have toured the latter several times, but I have never…

  • The Fisher & Sons Funeral Home from “Six Feet Under”

    The Fisher & Sons Funeral Home from “Six Feet Under”

    ‘ One location that I stalked well over a year ago, but for whatever reason have yet to blog about, is the Victorian-style residence which stood in for the supposed North Hollywood-area Fisher & Sons (and later Fisher-Diaz) Funeral Home on the immensely popular HBO series Six Feet Under.  Amazingly enough, up until yesterday morning,…

  • The Blankenhorn Lamphear House from “Teaching Mrs. Tingle”

    The Blankenhorn Lamphear House from “Teaching Mrs. Tingle”

    ‘ As I mentioned in yesterday’s post (which you can read here), I recently went on a trek to find all of the locations used in the 1999 thriller Teaching Mrs. Tingle.  The locale I was most interested in tracking down, of course, was the huge Victorian manse belonging to the movie’s titular character, who…

  • The YWCA Hollywood Studio Club from “Dexter”

    The YWCA Hollywood Studio Club from “Dexter”

    ‘ Aside from Sex and the City’s, I don’t think there’s ever been a television finale that I loved. Dexter’s, in my opinion, was the absolute worst.  But I was thoroughly mesmerized by the location chosen to portray Rendall Psychiatric Hospital, the ultra creepy abandoned lair of the Brain Surgeon Killer, Oliver Saxon (Darri Ingolfsson),…

  • The Former Site of Mulholland Farm

    The Former Site of Mulholland Farm

    ‘ Another locale that fellow stalker E.J., of The Movieland Directory, mentioned in Hollywood Death and Scandal Sites was the spot where Mulholland Farm – the former home of actor Errol Flynn – once stood.  And while I knew next to nothing about Flynn at the time I read the book, the blurb caught my…

  • Celebrity Jury Duty

    Celebrity Jury Duty

    ‘ Last September I was called to report for jury duty at the Clara Shortridge Foltz Criminal Justice Center in Downtown Los Angeles. As you can probably guess, I was not too excited for this venture. I perked up, though, when on my first day of service, I arrived at the courthouse to see a…

  • Halloween 2014

    Halloween 2014

    ‘ I do realize that it is November 4th and that the Halloween season has, by now, sadly ended, but you are going to have to bear with me for a couple of more days because I still have two more Haunted Hollywood posts to write.  This Halloween was one for the record books!  Per…

  • John Adams Middle School from “Heathers”

    John Adams Middle School from “Heathers”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper is a celebrity magnet.  Literally everywhere he goes, he runs into someone famous.  It’s maddening because 90% of these encounters occur when I am not with him.  Like the time he stopped by a Starbucks while on his way to a business meeting and saw Keanu Reeves sitting outside.  Or the…

  • The House Where Britney Spears and Kevin Federline Got Married

    The House Where Britney Spears and Kevin Federline Got Married

    ‘ Happy, Happy, Happy Halloween, everybody! As I have mentioned many times before, Halloween is my favorite holiday, so today I thought I’”‘”‘d post some pics of one of my favorite Halloweens ever – the year my boyfriend and I dressed up like Britney Spears and Kevin Federline. This was back in 2005, the same…
