Bugsy Siegel’s Former Resort – Club Arrowhead of the Pines
‘ Another place that I stalked while visiting Lake Arrowhead this past Thanksgiving was the Bracken Fern Manor country inn, which in the 1930’s was part of a private gambling club/resort named Club Arrowhead of the Pines that was run by none other than legendary mobster Bugsy Siegel. Because the Grim Cheaper is obsessed with…

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…

Casa Vega from “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood”
‘ One of the things I most appreciate about Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is the lengths director Quentin Tarantino went to portray an authentic 1960s-era Los Angeles onscreen. To that end, he featured several local historic restaurants from the time that are, thankfully, still around today, including Musso and Frank Grill, El Coyote,…

‘ Every time I open up Instagram lately I’m inundated with videos of the so-called “Matilda Challenge.” For those whose feeds haven’t been flooded by the clips, in the challenge fans of the 1996 film re-create this scene in which Matilda Wormwood (Mara Wilson) perfects her magic powers. Though I’ve never seen the movie (or…

Brenda’s Horseback Riding Center from “Beverly Hills, 90210”
‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk for what seems like forever now is the supposed Minnesota-area equestrian center where a childhood Brenda Walsh (a young actress stood in for my girl Shannen Doherty in this episode, but I, unfortunately, cannot seem to find her name anywhere online) went horseback riding in the…

Taverna Tony
‘ This past Saturday afternoon my boyfriend and I met up with my former boss and his wife for some coffee at the Malibu Country Mart – where we sat next to Brian Grazer in the playground area for a good 45 minutes. But that’”‘”‘s a whole other story. 🙂 After hanging out at the Mart for…

The YWCA Hollywood Studio Club from “Dexter”
‘ Aside from Sex and the City’s, I don’t think there’s ever been a television finale that I loved. Dexter’s, in my opinion, was the absolute worst. But I was thoroughly mesmerized by the location chosen to portray Rendall Psychiatric Hospital, the ultra creepy abandoned lair of the Brain Surgeon Killer, Oliver Saxon (Darri Ingolfsson),…
