    Evergreen Memorial Park & Crematory

    ‘ A couple of months ago, while doing research on locations for my Haunted Hollywood postings, I came across some online images of Evergreen Memorial Park & Crematory in Boyle Heights and practically started drooling over the place’s fabulously haunting chapel.  Then when I learned that the cemetery had been featured in the 1980 horror…

    and Jeremy Piven Nightclub from “Arrested Development”

    ‘ Thanks to Netflix streaming and the boredom of summer reruns, I just recently started watching Arrested Development.  And, let me tell you, I am hooked!  My interest in the show was first piqued when I randomly came across this Wikia article about a fictitious nightclub on the series named “and Jeremy Piven.” I just…

  • The “You” Party House

    The “You” Party House

    ‘ The second season of You certainly did a stunning job of showcasing Los Angeles.  From the fabulously chic Anavrin grocery store to the striking Victorian rented by Candace Stone (Ambyr Childers), the city has never looked better onscreen!  One spot that majorly intrigued me was the pad where Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) attempted to…

    The Cecil B. DeMille Estate

    My Latest Interview with US Modernist Radio

    ‘ Last month, I headed out to the Skylark Hotel in Palm Springs to meet with George Smart, of the US Modernist website, and record a bit for his popular podcast, US Modernist Radio.  While sitting by the pool in the Skylark’s fabulously retro courtyard (which could not have felt more appropriate), George and I…

    The “E.T.” House

    ‘ Although I consider myself somewhat of a master stalker (not as good as fellow stalkers Owen, Mike, from MovieshotsLA, or Chas, from ItsFilmedThere, of course), for whatever reason, up until this past weekend I had yet to visit one of the most famous movie locations of them all – the home where Mary (aka…
