    Mansion Bel Aire

    ‘ A few weeks ago, while searching for the Fresh Prince of Bel Air house, fellow stalker Kerry told me about a mansion in Glendale that she calls the “Tara House” that she thought might be the home used in Fresh Prince. So, of course I had to run right out to stalk it. It…

    The “Teen Witch” “Top That” Street Rap

    ‘ There is no more iconic moment in the 1989 classic Teen Witch than the epic “Top That” street rap scene.  Stalking the location where it was filmed was pretty high up on my list of things to do while I was in L.A. recently (after stalking the main house featured in the movie first,…

  • 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 Bedroom Window” Apartment

    ‘ I am always on the lookout for new thrillers and scary movies to watch, especially during this time of year.  While researching Baltimore locations in preparation for our recent trip to the Old Line State, I came across information about the brownstone apartment featured in The Bedroom Window.  I had never seen the 1987…

  • Juno’s House from “Juno”

    Juno’s House from “Juno”

    ‘ While I realize that most of my fellow stalkers are currently clamoring for me to put my Pacific Northwest blogging on hold in order to write about locales in the Southern California area, there are two more locations from the Academy Award-winning movie Juno that I wanted to blog about before doing so.  So,…

  • Annie’s House from “Sleepless in Seattle”

    Annie’s House from “Sleepless in Seattle”

    ‘ We all have those movies – the ones that affected us so much upon first viewing, they left a lasting imprint on our hearts.  Sleepless in Seattle is one such movie for me.  As I mentioned in this 2010 post about the houseboat from the 1993 romcom, I still remember exactly where I was…

  • Altadena Town and Country Club

    Altadena Town and Country Club

    ‘ As I predicted a few weeks ago, getting engaged has opened up a whole new stalking world for me!  And even though I have known for years now the exact spot where I want to get married, I am fully planning on dragging my fiance from one end of L.A. to the other looking at…

    My Guide to L.A. – Coffee

    ‘ I love coffee pretty much more than life itself, but very rarely do I visit independent coffee houses.  I am all about my Starbucks.  I know, I know, true java aficionados are probably shaking their heads right now.  But I like consistency – I like knowing that I can go into any Starbucks in…

    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…
