    The National Lampoon’s Vacation House

    ‘ And speaking of National Lampoon’”‘”‘s Vacation, last week fellow stalker Owen made it his mission to locate the Griswold home from the 1983 comedy flick.  Amazingly enough, he ended up finding the house pretty much right away!  For this particular movie location expenditure, Owen decided to “stalk outside the box”, so to speak, and started looking through Vacation’”‘”‘s…

    Today’s “Los Angeles” Magazine Post – The Disney Garage

    ‘ Sorry to have been M.I.A. for the past couple of days.  I was visiting L.A. and had the most amazing time!  The trip even included a surprise makeover for a new reality show (which I promise to blog about at a later date).  There was, unfortunately, no time for blogging, though, but I will…

    The “That Thing You Do!” Mailbox Scene

    ‘ Well folks, this post sadly marks the end to my 2013 Haunted Hollywood locales, which is especially depressing because this year was easily the Best. Halloween.

    Judy’s House from “Bridesmaids”

    ‘ The one location from Bridesmaids that I was most determined to track down – the one that I would not stop bugging poor Mike, from MovieShotsLA, about – was the yellow ranch-style dwelling where Annie’s (Kristen Wigg’s) mom, Judy (Jill Clayburgh, who was ABSOLUTELY ADORABLE in the role, which was, sadly, her last), lived…
