    Carrie Fisher’s House

    ‘ I would like to start off by wishing all of my fellow stalkers a very happy New Year!  I hope that 2012 brings each of you joy, laughter, fulfillment, and much good stalking.  And now, on with the post!  When my good friend, fellow stalker Lavonna, visited Los Angeles back in mid-November, she, along…

  • Woodsboro Police Station from “Scream”

    Woodsboro Police Station from “Scream”

    ‘ Happy, happy Halloween!  I can’t believe it is already time to wind down my Haunted Hollywood posts, but here we are.  Another October in the books!  The season definitely turned into a full-blown Scream-fest on the blog (as predicted a couple of weeks ago) and I am a-OK with it!  Amazingly, there are still…

  • Mary See’s Former House

    Mary See’s Former House

    ‘ Another location that I was reminded of while taking the Scott’s L.A. Audio Driving Tour of Pasadena this past week was the Craftsman-style residence where Mary See and her son Charles, founders of See’s Famous Old Time Candies, lived in the 1920s during the time when the legendary chocolate company was first established.  Because…

  • The Rum House from “Birdman”

    The Rum House from “Birdman”

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper typically could care less about filming locations, but he is absolutely obsessed with the movie The Godfather.  So I included a couple of locales from the 1972 Best Picture winner on the itinerary for our recent trip to the Big Apple.  One of those spots was Hotel Edison, a historic Theater…

  • Watson Drugs and Soda Fountain from “That Thing You Do!”

    Watson Drugs and Soda Fountain from “That Thing You Do!”

    ‘ Another That Thing You Do! locale that I dragged the Grim Cheaper out to stalk while the two of us were in the city of Orange in early October was Watson Drugs and Soda Fountain, which popped up twice in the 1996 flick.  And while I really wanted to grab a bite there, sadly…

  • Harbor Steps Apartments from “The Ring”

    Harbor Steps Apartments from “The Ring”

    ‘ I am reaching deep into my stalking vault for today’s location.  I visited the Harbor Steps Apartments from The Ring during a trip to Seattle well over four years ago – shortly after being caught in a torrential downpour, which explains my hat in the above photograph – but somehow failed to blog about…

  • Catalina’s Pavilion Lodge

    Catalina’s Pavilion Lodge

    ‘ This morning my family and I traveled to Catalina Island for a little summer vacay.  We’”‘”‘ve been planning this trip for quite some time now and, let me tell you, I could not have been more excited to finally arrive!  Ever since my grandmother gave me Robert Wagner’”‘”‘s autobiography, Pieces of My Heart: A Life,  for Christmas last year, I…

  • CSI: Pasadena

    CSI: Pasadena

    ‘ My dad is not a big fan of Hollywood. And by Hollywood I mean the industry, not the town. He can’”‘”‘t stand all of the overindulged, self-absorbed actors, even though his own daughter is one (minus the overindulged, self-absorbed part, of course). 🙂 He just barely tolerates my stalking and often asks me why…

  • Clark Gable’s Former House

    Clark Gable’s Former House

    ‘ Speaking of Clark Gable . . . another location that I stalked recently was the Encino-area ranch where the “King of Hollywood” lived for over two decades.  I first read about this locale, as I did yesterday’s (the Playa del Rey house where Judy Lewis, Gable and Loretta Young’s secret love child, was born),…

  • Dancing in the Friends’ Fountain!

    Dancing in the Friends’ Fountain!

    ‘ I’”‘”‘ve done some pretty cool things in my life, but I must say that one of my favorite and most memorable adventures was dancing in the fountain that was used in the opening credits of ! Back in 2002, I attended a seminar put on by my acting school that just happened to be…
