  • 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…

  • L’Opera Restaurant from “Charmed”

    L’Opera Restaurant from “Charmed”

    ‘ I rarely find myself in the LBC (that’s Long Beach, California, for those not in the know), so when I was out there a couple of months ago snapping photos for The Ultimate Guide to Clueless Movie Locations in Los Angeles Part I and Part II (which, if you haven’t checked out yet, you…

  • Red Carpet Wine & Spirits from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”

    Red Carpet Wine & Spirits from “Crazy, Stupid, Love.”

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago, a fellow stalker named Emily wrote a comment on my post about the Weaver house from fave movie Crazy, Stupid, Love. in which she informed me that the liquor store that appeared in the flick was Red Carpet Wine & Spirits (what a great name!) in Glendale.  As fate…

  • A Visit with My BFF

    A Visit with My BFF

    ‘ My best friend, Robin, who lives in Switzerland, just arrived in California for a surprise, last-minute visit.  I am so BEYOND excited, you don’t even understand!  I will be taking the next two weeks off to spend time with him, but will be back on Monday, March 24th with a new post.  In the…

  • Peter and Elizabeth’s House from “White Collar”

    Peter and Elizabeth’s House from “White Collar”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I have yet to watch the final season of White Collar, despite the fact that it aired almost a full two years ago.  We became hooked on the USA series back in 2011 after I attended a screening/Q&A with the cast – so hooked that we were devastated when its…

  • Mr. Hart’s Mansion from “Nine to Five”

    Mr. Hart’s Mansion from “Nine to Five”

    ‘ One of my favorite movies growing up was the 1980 comedy Nine to Five.  I would watch it on an almost daily basis (no joke!) and practically had the thing memorized.  I can still belt out the theme song to this day, in fact.  (I am guessing the majority of my fellow stalkers can,…

  • My Experience at Halloween Horror Nights (Hint – It Was Fabulous!)

    My Experience at Halloween Horror Nights (Hint – It Was Fabulous!)

    ‘ Halloween Horror Nights at Universal Studios Hollywood is something I have wanted to do forever.  Considering my obsession with Halloween, all things spooky and movie studios, it’s kind of a shock that I had never been.  The rather steep ticket prices – as well as the fact that everyone told me I shouldn’t bother…

  • JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa from “Saved by the Bell”

    JW Marriott Desert Springs Resort & Spa from “Saved by the Bell”

    ‘ This Labor Day, Lifetime is set to air The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story about the making of the Saturday morning classic which ran from 1989-1993.  Um, YAY!  (How did I not know about this, by the way??  Ordering it now!)  While the show was admittedly as cheesy as they come, I loved…

  • Mawby’s Bar from “Flashdance”

    Mawby’s Bar from “Flashdance”

    ‘ While I am definitely a child of the ‘80s, there are some classic films from that era that I have never been a fan of.  Pretty in Pink, Fast Times at Ridgemont High and Flashdance come to mind.  Being that there’s pretty much nothing I love more than movies with musical and dance montages,…

  • Marilyn Monroe’s Childhood Orphanage

    Marilyn Monroe’s Childhood Orphanage

    ‘ It’s shaping up to be Marilyn Monroe week here at iamnotastalker, because here I am yet again blogging about yet another location relating to the late actress.  Thanks to the “Movie Star Homes and Notorious Crime Scenes” map that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, purchased for me while the two of us were out and about…
