I Have Got to Get Me One of These!
‘ While driving this weekend, I happened to pass by this interesting contraption and just had to stop and take a pic! LOL! Apparently “Dan, the Handyman” is willing to rent out his boom-lift to paparazzi for picture taking at those hard-to-stalk locations. This device would have come in handy when I stalked Brad and…

Only in L.A.!

Peg Entwistle’s Former House

The “American Horror Story” House
‘ Last week, fellow stalker Owen sent me an email with a tip, as well as this Curbed LA article, about a Haunted-Hollywood-type location that he thought I might be interested in stalking – the imposing brick and marble abode which figures as the focal point of the new television series American Horror Story. And…

Shopping, Shopping and More Shopping!
‘ I spent pretty much all day Friday Christmas shopping (I FINALLY figured out what to get Miss Pinky Lovejoy, of the Thinking Pink blog, thank God! And yes, it’s pink!), so I unfortunately did not have time to write a post for today. I will be back tomorrow, though, with a whole new location.…

The “Rain Man” Convenience Store
‘ Back in February, while doing research on the Hollywood Hills apartment building where Charlie Babbitt (Tom Cruise) lived in 1988’s Rain Man, I came across a September 2004 article on the Palm Springs Life website titled “Quiet on the Set” about filming in the Coachella Valley.
