    Mitch’s House from “The Morning Show”

    ‘ My dad is unfortunately back in the hospital and right now this blog is one of the main things keeping me sane.  Being able to research, track down and write about filming locations, trivial as that may be, sparks major joy for me and has provided a much-needed distraction from all that is going…

  • George Nader’s Former Home

    George Nader’s Former Home

    ‘ Earlier this year, while doing research on the various Coachella Valley-area houses formerly owned by pianist Liberace, I came across a blurb in fave book Palm Springs Confidential about the city’s first ever triple homicide, which took place in a Las Palmas Estates residence that once belonged to actor George Nader.  After wiping the…

  • The Tate Mansion from “Soap”

    The Tate Mansion from “Soap”

    ‘ I have a pretty amazing memory, especially when it comes to things most people find useless, such as filming locations and movie quotes.  I’m like a vault.  Or an elephant.  Once something enters my brain, it locks in and I don’t forget it.  So I was shocked when I received an email a couple…

  • Elegant Manor

    Elegant Manor

    ‘ Because there’s nothing this stalker loves more than history and abandoned locations, my BFF Mike, from MovieShotsLA, once took me by a dilapidated old West Adams house known as Elegant Manor that has quite a backstory.  This was years ago, though, and, while I knew the place was a filming location (thanks to this…

  • Avalon Hotel Palm Springs from “The Hills”

    Avalon Hotel Palm Springs from “The Hills”

    ‘ Sometimes I stalk places unknowingly.  Such was the case with Avalon Hotel Palm Springs, which I visited back in June 2013 when it was known as Viceroy.  I was quite taken with the property’s yellow-hued Old Hollywood Regency-style theme and took a myriad of photographs while there, though I did not plan on blogging…

  • Happy Thanksgiving!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    ‘ I am going to be taking the rest of this week off to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family, but I will be back on Monday with a whole new location.  I hope all of my fellow stalkers have a fabulous Thanksgiving holiday! Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

  • Jeff’s House from “Spellbinder”

    Jeff’s House from “Spellbinder”

    ‘ My Haunted Hollywood backlog is getting ridiculous!  Currently, I have more than 50 already-stalked spooky locations compiled – and only about 20 or so days each year to blog about them.  Regardless, I keep compiling more – and I love every minute of it!  Why can’t all year be Halloween?  Last October, fellow stalker…

  • The Lounge – The Site of Britney and Justin’s Dance-Off

    The Lounge – The Site of Britney and Justin’s Dance-Off

    ‘ If you are anything at all like me, you eagerly tuned in to watch Lifetime’”‘”‘s Britney Spears biopic Britney Ever After the evening of February 18th.  If not, you seriously missed out.  It was amazing – in the way that only bad Lifetime movies can be amazing.  The two-hour made-for-television flick chronicled a decade…

  • The Smith Estate from “Insidious: Chapter 2”

    The Smith Estate from “Insidious: Chapter 2”

    ‘ Considering I’ve been stalking full-time for close to a decade and annually covering Haunted Hollywood locales for just about as long, you’d think I’d have the market on spooky sites cornered by now.  That is definitely not the case, though.  I am continuously discovering new-to-me spots, scary and otherwise, which speaks more to the…

  • Loretta Young’s Palm Springs House

    Loretta Young’s Palm Springs House

    ‘ While doing research on the Playa del Rey house where Judy Lewis (secret love child of Loretta Young and Clark Gable) was born (which I blogged about here), I came across a November 2011 The New York Times article about Lewis’ recent death which stated that the actress/psychotherapist was finally told the true story…
