  • The Sadr City Date Factory from “American Sniper”

    The Sadr City Date Factory from “American Sniper”

    ‘ As I sat down to figure out what to write about for today’s post, I started getting worried that my location backlog was running low.  That worry was quickly amended as soon as I began perusing my inventory of stalking photographs and saw that was not the case at all.  I have so many…

  • Clown Dog Restaurant from “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead”

    Clown Dog Restaurant from “Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead”

    ‘ UPDATE – I just drove by this location last week and was shocked to discover that the entire thing had been completely torn down.  The only part of it left standing is the All American Burger sign pictured below.  🙁  A Chipotle restaurant is currently being built in its place. So incredibly sad!  I will leave this post up, though, for those…

    The 19th Annual Art of Motion Picture Costume Design Exhibition at FIDM

    ‘ As I mentioned in yesterday’s post about the Buckland Auction House from Charmed, this past weekend I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk the 19th Annual Art of Motion Picture Costume Design Exhibition which is currently on display at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising Museum & Galleries in Downtown Los Angeles…

  • The Union Theological Seminary Rotunda from “The Ice Storm”

    The Union Theological Seminary Rotunda from “The Ice Storm”

    ‘ Locations have been making impressions on me for ages, long before I even knew stalking was a thing.  Case in point – way back in 1997 while watching The Ice Storm, I became fixated on the ornate stone staircase Libbets Casey (Katie Holmes) walked down in an early scene.  Even though I only saw…

  • Spadra Cemetery

    Spadra Cemetery

    ‘ Finding the words “ghost town” used to describe a cemetery is likely to cause my head to start spinning.  Which is exactly what happened while I was doing some research on abandoned locales for an upcoming Discover Los Angeles post.  I happened to come across an article on the Avoiding Regret blog about a…

  • The Occult Store from “The Craft”

    The Occult Store from “The Craft”

    ‘ I often receive emails from fellow stalkers who are planning trips to Los Angeles and want some help in tracking down a favorite film or television location.  The emails always give me a pang of recognition.  I was that stalker once upon a time.  During one of my first trips to L.A., I was…

  • The Burr House from “The Twilight Zone”

    The Burr House from “The Twilight Zone”

    ‘ After what amounted to a nearly two-year stalking hiatus, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, is finally back!  Let me reverse a bit and explain.  Over the past couple of years, Mike has been busy working in production (yep, he actually toils away on movie sets now!), which hasn’t left much time for tracking down locations.  I…

  • Sierra Madre Pioneer Cemetery from “Twin Peaks”

    Sierra Madre Pioneer Cemetery from “Twin Peaks”

    ‘ As I mentioned in my post last month about The Old Place restaurant, thanks to fellow stalker/David-Lynch-aficionado Brad, from the Brad D Studios website, I recently discovered that fave television series Twin Peaks was shot almost in its entirety in Southern California.  Because I have long been a Twin Peaks fanatic, I was beyond…

  • Slacking Off!

    Slacking Off!

    ‘ I’m sorry all of my fellow stalkers, but for the second time this week I do not have a new post to publish!  I am officially a slacker!  My dad was not feeling well at all yesterday so I was taking care of him and did not have time to do any blogging.  I…

  • Moorten Botanical Garden

    Moorten Botanical Garden

    ‘ If you follow any lifestyle, fashion or beauty blogger, chances are you’ve seen some variation of the photo above.  For those who don’t keep up with influencers, the image is of the cactarium – aka cacti terrarium – at Moorten Botanical Garden in Palm Springs.  The structure has been documented on social media so…
