    The Marsh House from “Happy Land”

    ‘ Since we’re on the subject of McDonald Avenue (you can read Wednesday’s post about the McDonald Mansion from Pollyanna here), I figured I should write about another of its famous homes.  While doing research on the picturesque Santa Rosa street, one of the area’s most oft-filmed spots, prior to my trip up to Northern…

    The McGinley Residence – Where Robert F. Kennedy Is Said to Have Spent His Last Night

    ‘ Another Lafayette Square-area home that was mentioned in the “Affairs of Estate” article that I blogged about yesterday was the property located at 1821 South Victoria Avenue, where, according to author Ann Herold, Robert F. Kennedy spent the last night of his life.  And while that assertion would be extremely hard to prove (and…

    Halloween Countdown

    ‘ I was running errands all day yesterday and, unfortunately, did not have time to write a new post for today, but I will be back tomorrow (HALLOWEEN!) with this year’s final Haunted Hollywood locale. Until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

    Casa Vega and the Great Mexican Food Debate!

    ‘ I have long been a fan of Spencer and Heidi’”‘”‘s favorite Mexican restaurant Don Antonio’”‘”‘s in West LA. As far as I can see, it’”‘”‘s the only thing Spencer and I agree on. 🙂 Don Antonio’”‘”‘s serves up the best Mexican food I’”‘”‘ve ever tasted! In fact, the restaurant was the subject of

    Whitney’s NYC Pad

    ‘ I don’”‘”‘t know about you all, but I have been glued to my television set the past two Monday nights watching Whitney Port’”‘”‘s new Hills spinoff entitled The City. I must admit that the show has been quite lackluster and nowhere near as enthralling as The Hills, but I just can’”‘”‘t help myself. I…

  • The Filming Locations of “Dawson’s Creek”

    The Filming Locations of “Dawson’s Creek”

    ‘ Many, many moons ago, I began to compile what I call my “Stalking Bucket List” – a catalog of far-off filming locations that I would like to visit at some point during my lifetime. At the very top of that list is Wilmington, North Carolina, which masqueraded as the fictional “Capeside, Massachusetts” on one…

  • Now! Clothing from “L.A. Story”

    Now! Clothing from “L.A. Story”

    ‘ My second most-wanted location from the 1991 classic comedy L.A. Story was Now!, the ultra-hip clothing store with unisex dressing rooms where SanDeE* (my girl Sarah Jessica Parker) worked.  (My first most-wanted was, of course, the iconic freeway sign that I blogged about last Thursday.)  So I was floored to see that the locale…

    The Evers’ House from “The Haunted Mansion”

    ‘ My Los Angeles magazine editor is on vacation this week, so I will not have a post on LAmag.com today.  To make up for it, though, I’ve got a Haunted Hollywood locale for you right here!  One of my favorite parts about the Halloween season is watching scary movies.  (And of course stalking their…

  • The Great Wall Chinese Restaurant from “I Love You, Man”

    The Great Wall Chinese Restaurant from “I Love You, Man”

    ‘ In Pretty Woman, Edward Lewis (Richard Gere) states that very few people surprise him.  I could say the same about filming locations.  One that did recently surprise me, though, was The Great Wall Chinese Restaurant in Reseda.  For years I had been under the impression that the engagement party scene from the 2009 comedy…
