  • The Georgian Hotel from “BH90210”

    The Georgian Hotel from “BH90210”

    ‘ While I was initially on the fence as to my feelings regarding BH90210, I have to say the meta-revival has really grown on me.  Though I did not particularly love the pilot, by episode 4, I was absolutely enthralled and am so saddened that Season 1 will be coming to a close this week. …

  • The “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” Park

    The “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” Park

    ‘ Today’s post was a true labor of love – one that required stalking a location three separate times and a massive amount of help from a fellow stalker named Michael.  While most of the locales from the 1985 movie Girls Just Want to Have Fun (one of my all-time faves) have been tracked down…

  • Our Rehearsal Dinner at POP Champagne & Dessert Bar

    Our Rehearsal Dinner at POP Champagne & Dessert Bar

    ‘ As I’ve mentioned many times before on this blog, POP Champagne & Dessert Bar in Old Town Pasadena is my very favorite restaurant and, even though I wasn’t even engaged at the time, when I first walked through its front doors over a year and a half ago, I immediately knew it was the…

  • The “Mask” House

    The “Mask” House

    ‘ While I realize that I still have quite a few posts to publish from my recent stalking trip to the Palmdale/Lancaster area (including the Four Aces and Club Ed movie sets), as well as a few filming-related posts to write from my nuptials last August (most notably the venue), I decided to dedicate today’s…

  • Red Carpet Wine & Spirits from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”

    Red Carpet Wine & Spirits from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, a fellow stalker named Emily wrote a comment on my post about the Weaver house from fave movie Crazy, Stupid, Love. in which she informed me that the liquor store that appeared in the flick was Red Carpet Wine & Spirits (what a great name!) in Glendale.  As fate…

  • That Pink Door

    That Pink Door

    ‘ I have yet to really hop aboard the Pinterest bandwagon, but I know I’m in the minority on that one.  Those who are Pinterest-philes are most definitely familiar with what has come to be known as “That Pink Door.”  That Pink Door is actually the brightly-hued front door of a residence in the Indian…

  • The Knickerbocker Hotel

    The Knickerbocker Hotel

    ‘ I don’t think there is any property in Los Angeles, perhaps the world, that has seen as much glamour and as much tragedy as the former Knickerbocker Hotel in Hollywood.  Today, the Renaissance Revival/Beau Arts-style structure, which was once dubbed “The Hotel to the Stars,” serves as a retirement home.  And oh, if those…

  • A Day Off!

    A Day Off!

    ‘ I had to run a massive amount of errands and take care of some personal business this past Friday, so I was unfortunately not able to write a new post for today.  But I do promise to be back tomorrow with a whole new location. Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

  • Marilyn Monroe’s Catalina House

    Marilyn Monroe’s Catalina House

    ‘ The most important item on my Catalina Island stalking list was the home where a very young Marilyn Monroe lived with her first husband James Dougherty during the years 1943 to 1944.  This was long before Miss Monroe became a Hollywood icon and household name, back when she was just a girl who was…

  • The Culver City Hobbit Houses

    The Culver City Hobbit Houses

    ‘ I have a major affinity for unique architecture.  So when I came across this CurbedLA article about the Lawrence and Martha Joseph Residence and Apartments, a grouping of Storybook-style structures in Culver City colloquially known as the “Hobbit houses,” I just about foamed at the mouth.  The complex looks like something straight out of…
