  • Stu’s House from "Scream"

    Stu’s House from "Scream"

    ‘ At the risk of my October postings turning into a full-fledged Scream-fest (and there ain’t nothing wrong with that, honestly!), I’m coming at ya again with another locale from the 1996 horror flick – the Tomales-area farmhouse where Stuart Macher (Matthew Lillard) lived.  Situated up a long, winding driveway and barely visible from the…

  • The “Glee” Vanity Fair Photo Shoot

    The “Glee” Vanity Fair Photo Shoot

    ‘ In early December of last year, I came across these Fan Sites Network photographs of the male stars of Glee – including my latest love, cutie Matthew Morrison – posing for an upcoming issue of Vanity Fair at the Urban Light display at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and I just about…

  • Brockton Point Lighthouse from “The Crush”

    Brockton Point Lighthouse from “The Crush”

    ‘ The third and final filming location that I stalked from the 1993 thriller The Crush while I was visiting Vancouver two weeks ago was the Brockton Point Lighthouse – the spot where 14-year old Adrian Forrester (aka Alicia Silverstone) tried to seduce Nick Eliot (aka Cary Elwes), the much older man who was leasing…

  • 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 Virginia Street Bridge from “The Misfits”

    The Virginia Street Bridge from “The Misfits”

    ‘ Another Marilyn Monroe location that I dragged my dad and grandmother out to stalk while visiting Reno, Nevada last month was the famed Virginia Street Bridge, aka the “Bridge of Sighs”, which was featured in the 1961 film The Misfits.  As I mentioned in last Friday’s post about the Washoe Country Courthouse, during the…

  • Donna Martin, Rose Princess

    Donna Martin, Rose Princess

    ‘ When I first moved to Los Angeles about eight years ago, one of the very first items on my stalking agenda was to visit the Pasadena Tournament of Roses Headquarters. I wanted to sign up for their annual Rose Court Pageant just like Donna Martin did in the Season 6 episode of 90210 entitled…

  • Shopping, Shopping and More Shopping!

    Shopping, Shopping and More Shopping!

    ‘ I spent pretty much all day Friday Christmas shopping (I FINALLY figured out what to get Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, thank God!  And yes, it’s pink!), so I unfortunately did not have time to write a post for today.  I will be back tomorrow, though, with a whole new location.…

  • Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel from “The Ugly Truth”

    Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel from “The Ugly Truth”

    ‘ It has been said that Los Angeles has no regard for its history.  Today’s post is a testament to that assertion.  On March 1st of this year, the doors of the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza Hotel were closed in order for a massive remodel and renovation process to take place.  Though the building is…

  • Clark Gable’s Former House

    Clark Gable’s Former House

    ‘ Speaking of Clark Gable . . . another location that I stalked recently was the Encino-area ranch where the “King of Hollywood” lived for over two decades.  I first read about this locale, as I did yesterday’s (the Playa del Rey house where Judy Lewis, Gable and Loretta Young’s secret love child, was born),…

  • The “License to Drive” Hospital

    The “License to Drive” Hospital

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, the Grim Cheaper and I headed to L.A. for a brief visit and just happened to book a hotel on the west side of town for our stay.  The location turned out to be quite fortuitous, too, as it allowed me to stalk a few nearby spots that had…
