  • The Reno Main US Post Office from “Sister Act”

    The Reno Main US Post Office from “Sister Act”

    ‘ While visiting my grandmother in Sparks, Nevada over Christmas, I dragged her, along with my parents, out to stalk the Reno Main US Post Office, which masqueraded as the Reno Police Station in the 1992 movie Sister Act.  I first found out about this location from fave book Shot on This Site: A Traveler’s…

  • The House from Ben Affleck’s “Men’s Journal” Photo Shoot

    The House from Ben Affleck’s “Men’s Journal” Photo Shoot

    ‘ If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a hundred times – I hate incorrect filming location information!  I recently encountered some erroneous reporting which led me to stalk a site that, come to find out, does not actually have any movie or television connections (at least, none that I could dig up).  Hmph! …

  • Harbor Steps Apartments from “The Ring”

    Harbor Steps Apartments from “The Ring”

    ‘ I am reaching deep into my stalking vault for today’s location.  I visited the Harbor Steps Apartments from The Ring during a trip to Seattle well over four years ago – shortly after being caught in a torrential downpour, which explains my hat in the above photograph – but somehow failed to blog about…

  • My Day on the Set of “The Goldbergs”

    My Day on the Set of “The Goldbergs”

    ‘ I debated titling this post “How The Goldbergs altered my Thanksgiving.”  The Grim Cheaper and I were introduced to the ABC series, which is like an ‘80s-set The Wonder Years, last fall and quickly became hooked.  We plowed through all of the episodes in just a few weeks and found each to be poignant,…

  • The Trenton Family Home from “Cujo”

    The Trenton Family Home from “Cujo”

    ‘ Cujo is regularly hailed as one of the best cult horror movies of all time.  I never actually saw the 1983 flick until just prior to writing this post, but I came across some information about the main house – or, more accurately, houses – used in it while researching filming locations in Sonoma…

  • 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…

  • Simon Fuller’s Walk of Fame Star Ceremony

    Simon Fuller’s Walk of Fame Star Ceremony

    ‘ As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, bright and early this past Monday morning I headed out to Hollywood to attend the Walk of Fame Star Ceremony for American Idol creator Simon Fuller.  And I really should admit here that, while the Grim Cheaper is a die-hard fan of AI, I have never really been…

  • Bob Hope’s Palm Springs House

    Bob Hope’s Palm Springs House

    ‘ While in Palm Springs this past weekend, I dragged my boyfriend – ahem, fiance (I swear, I’”‘”‘m never going to get used to saying that!) out to stalk Bob Hope’”‘”‘s former residence, which is located high up on a cliff at the very top of Southridge Drive.  I wasn’”‘”‘t so much interested in seeing the…

  • A Cinderella Story

    A Cinderella Story

    ‘ As I have said before, I am a total sucker for a good teeny bopper movie. I still cry every time I watch the Melissa Joan Hart movie Drive Me Crazy! LOL So, a few years back, I was absolutely esctatic to have stumbled upon the filming of the Hilary Duff movie A Cinderella…

  • Kirk Douglas’ Former Palm Springs House

    Kirk Douglas’ Former Palm Springs House

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I are finally home from a blissful two weeks in Switzerland. It was so hard to leave my best friend and his amazing family (pictured above) and the beauty of their country – especially being that when we returned to Palm Springs, temperatures were around 122 degrees! I will be…
