    Olympic Coffee Shop from “Sharp Objects”

    ‘ I’m not sure what it is about old school diners, but I sure have an affinity for them.  My inclination maybe stems from memories of childhood road trips or weekend mornings spent at greasy spoons with my parents during my early years or my nostalgic nature in general.  Whatever the cause, if I see…

  • The Old Man’s House from “Night of the Demons”

    The Old Man’s House from “Night of the Demons”

    ‘ Ah, how I love creepy old houses.  Horror flicks?  Not so much.  Which is strange, I know, being that I am such a fan of Halloween, all things scary, and movies in general.  I do absolutely love horror films that are done well, though (hello, Scream!), but find that the vast majority are pretty…

  • The Whisky a Go Go

    The Whisky a Go Go

    ‘ I’ve never really been into music.  As I have mentioned before, if it’s not sung by Michael Bublé, Britney Spears or Michael Jackson, or was not a top ‘80s hit, chances are I haven’t heard it.  But my good friend Kim from Kentucky is a huge music buff, so when she and our good…

    The Los Angeles Filming Locations of “Hocus Pocus”

    ‘ It’s finally here, folks!  The day I wait for all year long.  Halloween!  I hope all of my fellow stalkers have a fabulous, spooky and safe holiday!  I figured what better way to celebrate my favorite day than with a post about one of the world’s most beloved Halloween movies, Hocus Pocus.  Last week,…

    Hoose Library of Philosophy from “What Women Want”

    ‘ Those who were impressed by Doheny Memorial Library from Matilda (which I blogged about last November), wait ‘til you get a load of today’s locale!  It’s yet another stunning athenaeum on the University of Southern California campus.  Named the Hoose Library of Philosophy, it boasts some of the most remarkable architecture I have ever…

  • The “My So-Called Life” House

    The “My So-Called Life” House

    ‘ Since I blogged about the house which stood in for the Chase residence in the pilot episode of My So-Called Life yesterday, I thought I would write today about the house which was used in the remaining 18 episodes of the series.  I have actually blogged about this location once before, over three years…

  • Pee-wee’s House from “Pee-wee’s Big Adventure”

    Pee-wee’s House from “Pee-wee’s Big Adventure”

    ‘ The internet lit up this week with news that actor Paul Reubens is embarking upon a 20-city 35th Anniversary Tour celebrating Pee-wee’s Big Adventure starting next February.  Coincidentally, the house where Reubens’ titular character, Pee-wee Herman, lived in the 1985 comedy has long been on my list of To-Blog Christmas locales.  And no, I…

  • The “Teen Wolf” Party House

    The “Teen Wolf” Party House

    ‘ As I mentioned in the post I wrote back in January about the residence where Pamela Wells (aka Lorie Griffin) lived in Teen Wolf, fellow stalkers Chas, from the ItsFilmedThere website, and Owen recently embarked upon a mission to track down all of the locations used in the 1985 comedy.  One of the locales…

  • The High Line from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”

    The High Line from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills”

    ‘ I absolutely love the great outdoors.  In fact, alongside Starbucks and stalking, there’s pretty much nothing I enjoy more than being outside.  So when I read about a former-elevated-train-track-turned-urban-park in NYC prior to my trip to the Big Apple last April, I knew it was a spot I had to check out.  At the…
