    ‘ It’s Friday the 13th!  Friday, October 13th!  Could anything be better?  This Haunted Hollywood season, the universe has really been pushing me to watch Death Becomes Her.  I had never seen the 1992 flick and, while I knew it was about two longtime female rivals obsessed with aging, always assumed it fell into the…

    The “Step by Step” House

    ‘ One location fellow stalker Owen has been on the lookout for for quite some time now is the house where the Lambert Family lived in the 1990′”‘”‘s television sitcom Step by Step.  Because of the house’”‘”‘s Crafstman style architecture, Owen was pretty convinced that it was located somewhere in South Pasadena, a city which is known for its…

    The “Empty Nest” House

    ‘ Today’s post is a looooooong-time coming, friends! Easily the location I get asked to track down most often is the supposed Miami, Florida-area house where Dr. Harry Weston (Richard Mulligan) lived on the television series Empty Nest. I have searched for the contemporary two-story residence off-and-on over the years, but never had any luck. …

    Palm Springs City Hall from “Behind the Candelabra”

    ‘ The Behind the Candelabra location that I was most excited to stalk was Palm Springs City Hall, which appeared very briefly towards the end of the recently-aired HBO biopic.  When I first saw the locale pop up onscreen, in all of its retro glory, I was convinced that it was a set that had…
