    The Houses from the Movie “Big”

    ‘ Right around the corner from The King of Queens house, which I blogged about on Friday, are the two main houses used in the 1988 Tom Hanks movie Big.  And when I say “right around the corner”, I literally mean RIGHT around the corner.  The King of Queens  house and the Big  houses are…

    Latest “L.A.” Mag Post – About the “Thriller” House

    ‘ Be sure to check out today’s Los Angeles magazine post – about the house from Michael Jackson’s Thriller – which is, sadly, my last Haunted Hollywood column for CityThink until next October.  My articles typically get published in the late morning/early afternoon hours.  And you can also check out my friend Owen’”‘”‘s post about…

    Sorry For the Delay . . .

    ‘ Sorry to have been M.I.A. for the past week.  We had friends in town visiting and I was a little remiss in my blogging duties.  I did do a ton of stalking while they were here, though (we even ran into Ken Todd while stalking TomTom, as you can see above!), so a bunch…

  • Park Avenue Princess

    Park Avenue Princess

    ‘ Today I thought I’”‘”‘d write yet another post about yet another filming location – Charlotte York’”‘”‘s Upper East Side apartment. 🙂 From the beginning Charlotte York was reigning Park Avenue Princess – a role I’”‘”‘d like to see myself in someday 🙂 – and, in real life, her apartment really was located on New…

  • Moving Day!

    Moving Day!

    ‘ My parents officially moved to Palm Springs today, marking the first time in over a decade that we will not be living in the same zip code.  Watching their U-Haul drive off was one of the saddest moments I’ve experienced as of late, so I was not in a really good place to write…

  • The Ambassador Hotel

    The Ambassador Hotel

    ‘ Katharine Hepburn once said, “I have many regrets and I’”‘”‘m sure everyone does. The stupid things you do, you regret . . . if you have any sense.” Katharine was right. One of my biggest regrets in life is that I never got to see the Ambassador Hotel in person before it was torn…

  • The “Christmas Vacation” Pool

    The “Christmas Vacation” Pool

    ‘ Another Christmas-themed locale that I had long wanted to track down and stalk was Clark W. Griswold’s (Chevy Chase’s) dream pool from the 1989 classic Christmas Vacation.  (Is it odd, by the way, that I can still remember exactly where I was and who I was with the first time I saw the flick…

    Anoakia Mansion from “Doppelganger”

    ‘ There’s no denying that Doppelganger is a pretty horrible movie.  But part of the fun of the Halloween season is watching ridiculously terrible horror flicks from years past – and stalking their locations, of course.  I had long been on the hunt for the psychiatric institution from the 1993 thriller and was given a…

    ‘ Just got a shout out from Alexandra over at www.fbidramas.com. Thanks so much, Alexandra!!! Hopefully next time I’”‘”‘ll actually get to meet Anthony LaPaglia or the yummy Eric Close. 🙂 I’”‘”‘ll keep you posted! ‘

  • 90210’s Baby Mama’s House

    90210’s Baby Mama’s House

    ‘ While stalking the 90210 house last week, the owner, Jack, told Mike [of MovieShotsLA – as if you didn’”‘”‘t already know by now :)] and me about a few Beverly Hills, 90210 filming locations that we had yet to locate. One location was the home of Brandon’”‘”‘s love interest from the Season 1 episode…
