“The Hangover” Wedding Chapel
‘ It is no secret that erroneous (and/or imprecise) filming location information published online and in books is one of my biggest pet peeves – especially when it leads to me stalking an incorrect place, which is exactly what happened while I was in Las Vegas a couple of weeks ago. (Why there is some…

Tracey Ross from “Beverly Hills, 90210”
‘ ‘Tis finally the season – the season for holiday-themed filming locations! As is the case every year, because Christmas locales in the L.A. area are rather limited, I waited to start blogging about them until the end of December. And I should mention here that my postings over the next two or three weeks…

Wattles Mansion from “Troop Beverly Hills”
‘ After re-watching Troop Beverly Hills a couple of weeks back and subsequently stalking the mansion where the Nefler family lived, I became just a wee bit obsessed with tracking down some of the other locales featured in the 1989 flick. Thankfully IMDB had quite a few sites listed on its Troop Beverly Hills filming…

My Guide to L.A. – Shopping
‘ If there is one thing I love almost as much as stalking, it’s shopping – and shopping in Los Angeles is in a class all its own. When I first moved to SoCal in 2000, I found myself in retail heaven. The city boasts a myriad of cute shopping districts, fabulous marketplaces, and one-of-a-kind…

‘ Another location that I stalked while visiting the Pacific Northwest this past May was a famous Seattle-area sculpture known as the Fremont Troll, which appeared in a brief scene in the 1999 teen comedy 10 Things I Hate About You. The Troll, which weighs two tons and was built out of wire, ferroconcrete, and…

Toby’s House from “The Office”
‘ The night of April 28th, 2011 was one of the saddest nights I have experienced as of late due to the fact that it marked Steve Carell’s final appearance on fave show The Office. In the days leading up to the airing of his last episode, which was titled “Goodbye, Michael”, I had a…

The So-Called Houdini Ruins
‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk for just about forever now is the so-called Harry Houdini Estate, or Houdini Ruins, located at the corner of Laurel Canyon Boulevard and Lookout Mountain Avenue in Laurel Canyon. I first read about the site five years ago in fave stalking tome Hollywood: The Movie Lover’s…

Happy Fourth of July!
‘ I will be taking the next couple of days off from blogging in order to celebrate the Fourth of July weekend with the Grim Cheaper and Mike, from MovieShotsLA, who is in town for a visit. (Yay!) I know, I know – I just got back from a two-week vacation! But such is life.…

The “Beaches” Mansion
‘ One location that I have been asked about repeatedly ever since I first started my blog almost four years ago (and I CANNOT even believe that it has been that long!!!) is the large Tudor-style mansion where Hillary Whitney Essex (aka Barbara Hershey) lived in the 1988 tearjerker Beaches. And while it had long…

Los Angeles County Museum of Art from “My So-Called Life”
‘ Since I spend the majority of my weekends dragging the Grim Cheaper out on various stalking adventures, this past Saturday, in honor of our first Valentine’s Day together as a married couple, I decided to create a scavenger hunt for him based on his many likes and hobbies. I do have to admit that…
