  • The Closer Duplex

    The Closer Duplex

    ‘ As I have mentioned before, I am a huge fan of TNT’”‘”‘s crime series The Closer.  As is my whole family, actually.  So, a few weeks ago when my mom challenged me to locate Brenda and Fritz’”‘”‘s duplex apartment building from the series, I accepted the challenge!  🙂  And it didn’”‘”‘t take me long to find it at…

  • The Salem Filming Locations of “Hocus Pocus”

    The Salem Filming Locations of “Hocus Pocus”

    ‘ Today, we have a very special guest post brought to you by my good friend/Hocus Pocus aficionado Katie, who recently took a trip to Salem, Massachusetts to stalk the locations featured in the bewitching (pun intended!) 1993 film.  When she kindly proposed writing a column about her adventure during my Haunted Hollywood postings, I…

  • “The Bodyguard” Mansion – aka The Beverly House Compound

    “The Bodyguard” Mansion – aka The Beverly House Compound

    ‘ After the sad passing of singer Whitney Houston last month, I mentioned to fellow stalker Mike, from MovieShotsLA, that we should try to track down the mansion where one of Whitney’s most legendary characters, pop star Rachel Marron, lived in 1992’s The Bodyguard. For some very odd reason, I thought that the place had…

  • Oscar Weekend 2013

    Oscar Weekend 2013

    ‘ I spent this past weekend in L.A. doing some pre-Oscar stalking and while I did not have as much luck with celebrity photos this year as I have in years past, my girl Miss Pinky Lovejoy, from the Thinking Pink blog, did.  I think she got about 55 celeb pics in total!  I really…

  • Pete Duel’s Former House

    Pete Duel’s Former House

    ‘ Be careful what you wish for, you just might get it.  That adage rings true for today’s story, about actor Pete Duel who shot and killed himself at his Hollywood Hills home in the early morning hours of New Year’s Eve 1971.  I had Duel’s address written down in the Haunted Hollywood portion of…

  • The Site of Sanford and Son Salvage from “Sanford and Son”

    The Site of Sanford and Son Salvage from “Sanford and Son”

    ‘ There’s pretty much nothing I relish more than diving into the nitty-gritty when proving or disproving a location – especially if that location is from an old production and/or is no longer in existence.  I love the challenge of it.  I recently had the pleasure of delving into one such case thanks to a…

    Stuyvesant Square Park from “Sex and the City”

    ‘ At the risk of this blog becoming solely Sex and the City-based, here I am yet again with yet another locale from the hit HBO series.  For those of you non-SATC fans out there, don’t worry, I will be chronicling NYC sites from other productions soon.  I will also be interspersing New York spots…

  • The “E.T.” House

    The “E.T.” House

    ‘ Although I consider myself somewhat of a master stalker (not as good as fellow stalkers Owen, Mike, from MovieshotsLA, or Chas, from ItsFilmedThere, of course), for whatever reason, up until this past weekend I had yet to visit one of the most famous movie locations of them all – the home where Mary (aka…

  • Burbank Town Center Mall from the Season 3 Finale of “The Mentalist”

    Burbank Town Center Mall from the Season 3 Finale of “The Mentalist”

    ‘ While watching the two-part Season 3 finale of fave show The Mentalist titled “Strawberries and Cream” a few weeks back, I just about died when I realized that the Burbank Town Center had stood in for the supposed Sacramento-area “Pinewood Shopping Mall” in the episode’s climatic final scene.  While Burbank Town Center is not…
