    Hollywood Tower

    ‘ “The next time you check into a deserted hotel on the dark side of Hollywood, make sure you know just what kind of vacancy you’”‘”‘re filling.  Or you may find yourself a permanent resident… of The Twilight Zone.”  So says Rod Serling at the end of Disney World’s popular The Twilight Zone Tower of…

  • The World’s Most Haunted House

    The World’s Most Haunted House

    ‘ I’ve mentioned before that my good friend Owen, of the When Write Is Wrong blog, and I have an almost eerie synchronicity. So what happened this past Monday shouldn’t have surprised me. Last October, he informed me that there is a pad that has been dubbed “the world’s most haunted house” located in the…

    Grand Central Market from “Bosch”

    ‘ Happy 2019, my fellow stalkers!  I was originally going to write about a different locale today, one that was sadly lost in the Woolsey Fire, but decided it would be best to start the year off on a happier note.  So instead I’m covering a quintessential Los Angeles spot that I have stalked countless…

  • Figaro Bistrot from “Made of Honor”

    Figaro Bistrot from “Made of Honor”

    ‘ As I mentioned in my post about Le Petit Bistro back in early August, one location that I have been longing to stalk for quite some time now is Figaro Bistrot, an adorable little French cafe that has appeared in numerous productions over the years, most notably the Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2009 advertising campaign…

    The 101 Coffee Shop from “Swingers”

    ‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk ever since moving to Los Angeles over a decade ago, but didn’t because there were numerous erroneous reports floating around online which stated that the place had since closed down, was the 101 Coffee Shop which appeared in the 1996 movie Swingers.  It wasn’t until Mike, from…

  • Britney Spears’ Former Santa Monica Condo

    Britney Spears’ Former Santa Monica Condo

    ‘ Got a from Kayli today, who challenged me to find Britney Spears’”‘”‘ house. Since Britney’”‘”‘s current home is located far from public view in a gated community, I thought I’”‘”‘d instead blog about a past residence of Ms. Spears. While Brit did not call this condo home during any of her recent mental breakdowns,…

    Le Chene French Cuisine from “Sharp Objects”

    ‘ I am a very black and white person.  Opinions typically come to me immediately and tend to swing towards either loving or hating something.  I don’t deal much in grey.  For some reason, though, I cannot decide if I like Sharp Objects.  I thoroughly enjoyed the Gillian Flynn novel on which the new HBO…

  • The Bradbury Building

    The Bradbury Building

    ‘ While serving on jury duty a few years back, I had the opportunity to visit one of the most incredible buildings I’”‘”‘ve ever seen in my life.  Since jurors are oftentimes given incredibly long lunches (sometimes lasting over two and a half hours!!), the jury orientation paperwork includes a list of some “Things To Do” in…

    ‘ It is finally that time of year again, my favorite time of year – October!  And you know what that means – it is the start of my annual Haunted Hollywood postings!  What better way to kick things off than with a location from the much-loved movie Teen Witch? Somehow I only just discovered…

  • The Last Bookstore from “Gone Girl”

    The Last Bookstore from “Gone Girl”

    ‘ I love bookstores – and books.  Actual books, not the digitized versions.  You will never catch me reading on a Kindle.  I like the feel of a book in my hands, the physical act of turning the pages and the smell.  I love, love, love the smell of books.  The Grim Cheaper always makes…
