    The “Waxwork” House

    ‘ It’s finally that time again, folks – time for my annual Haunted Hollywood stalkings!  I intended to commence this year’s postings with a real doozy of a murder case, but got held up a bit in my research.  I am currently awaiting some documents from the County of Riverside that should provide more clarity…

  • 30th Street Station from “Trading Places”

    30th Street Station from “Trading Places”

    ‘ If you’re a filming location buff, you really shouldn’t travel to Philadelphia without first seeing Trading Places, the 1983 Dan Aykroyd/Eddie Murphy comedy set in the City of Brotherly Love.  And filming location buff or not, you really shouldn’t leave Philly without a visit to 30th Street Station, the city’s main railroad depot which…

  • City Supper Club from “He’s Just Not That Into You”

    City Supper Club from “He’s Just Not That Into You”

    ‘ Back in February, I wrote a Scene it Before column for L.A. magazine covering a few locales from He’s Just Not That Into You in honor of the romcom’s 20th anniversary.  While researching, I was thrilled to come across a mention on production designer Gae Buckley’s website that the supposed Baltimore-area City Supper Club,…

  • The Former Menendez Family Home

    The Former Menendez Family Home

    ‘ Just around the corner from Vincente Minnelli’s former abandoned mansion (which I blogged about yesterday) is the palatial Elm Drive residence where on August 20th, 1989, brothers Lyle and Erik Menendez (then 22- and 19-years-old, respectively) shot and killed their parents, entertainment company executive Jose and housewife Mary Louise, aka “Kitty.”  (I honestly cannot…

  • “The Hogan Family” House

    “The Hogan Family” House

    ‘ One Pasadena area filming location that I had long assumed was well-known in the stalking community was the home where the Hogan family lived in the 1986 television sitcom Valerie, aka Valerie’s Family, aka The Hogan Family.  So, the other day when I happened to point out the location to Mike, from MovieShotsLA, while…

  • The Little Door Restaurant from “Monster-in-Law”

    The Little Door Restaurant from “Monster-in-Law”

    ‘ One restaurant that I have long wanted to stalk, but could just never seem to find was the adorable little outdoor courtyard spot where Kevin Fields (aka Michael Vartan), his mother, Viola Fields (aka Jane Fonda), and his new fiancé, Charlie Cantilini (aka Jennifer Lopez), lunched towards the end of the 2005 romantic comedy…

  • Hacienda Palomino – Michael Jackson’s Former Las Vegas House

    Hacienda Palomino – Michael Jackson’s Former Las Vegas House

    ‘ I am not really that into stalking celebrity homes (though I have quite a few of them on my site), the main reason being that typically little else besides a gate can be seen from the road.  There are some exceptions, though.  If there is a star I really like, or if I read…

  • Chateau Bradbury Estate from “The Craft”

    Chateau Bradbury Estate from “The Craft”

    ‘ I am devastated that the month of October is almost over!  It seemed to come and go so fast this year!  But I do have to say that I am really excited for Halloween (T minus two days and counting!), even though the end of October is always bittersweet for me.  Especially since I…

  • Runyon Canyon Park from “The Hills”

    Runyon Canyon Park from “The Hills”

    ‘ A few years ago, after my good friend Nat happened to spot Runyon Canyon Park pop up in an episode of fave reality series The Hills, she sent me an email asking if I had ever stalked the place.  And while I had long known that the locale was not only a big-time celebrity…

  • Ashley’s Apartment from “Just My Luck”

    Ashley’s Apartment from “Just My Luck”

    ‘ I do not have the best taste in movies and am the first to admit it.  Case in point – Just My Luck, a 2006 Lindsay Lohan romcom that I absolutely love.  Have I lost you already?  If so, it’s understandable.  But I find the film adorable.  I’ve seen it about a hundred times…
