  • The Ella Strong Denison Library from “Beaches”

    The Ella Strong Denison Library from “Beaches”

    ‘ Libraries are very much on my brain as of late.  It’s all thanks to Matilda and the post I wrote about the Wormwood home last week.  While scanning through the 1996 film making screen captures, I became awestruck by the incredible book repository where young Matilda (Sara Magdalin) regularly hung out.  Though countless websites…

  • The “It’s Complicated” House

    The “It’s Complicated” House

    ‘ This past weekend, I dragged my new husband out to Westlake Village to see a home that I’ve been absolutely dying to stalk ever since I tracked down its location a little over two months ago – the adobe-style ranch where Jane Adler (aka Meryl Streep) lived in the 2009 Nancy Meyers-directed romantic comedy…

  • HarborPlace Tower from “The Craft”

    HarborPlace Tower from “The Craft”

    ‘ Today’s location is a special request from my good friends Katie and Lavonna, who, in a group text, both suggested I blog about some sites from The Craft as part of my Haunted Hollywood postings.  Now the 1996 horror flick is not one of my favorites and its locales have been pretty well documented…

  • Andrew’s House from “Hidden Away”

    Andrew’s House from “Hidden Away”

    ‘ Ah yes, another Hidden Away locale.  I promise this is the last one!  Despite the fact that the 2013 Lifetime Original Movie was laughably bad, I became obsessed with tracking down all of its locations, mainly due to the fact that it was lensed for the most part in Palm Springs.  (You can read…

  • The View from Leonard and Sheldon’s Apartment on “The Big Bang Theory”

    The View from Leonard and Sheldon’s Apartment on “The Big Bang Theory”

    ‘ As I mentioned in Wednesday’s post, while doing research on the rooftop where Howard Wolowitz (Simon Helberg) and Bernadette Rostenkowski (Melissa Rauch) got married in the Season 5 episode of The Big Bang Theory titled “The Countdown Reflection”, I came across a TBBT forum that was an absolute treasure trove of location information.  I…

  • The “Some Kind of Wonderful” Party House

    The “Some Kind of Wonderful” Party House

    ‘ While I was stalking Steff’s mansion from Pretty in Pink, which I blogged about last Thursday, fellow stalker Mike, from MovieShotsLA, texted me to let me know that the party house from another classic John Hughes-penned ‘80s movie, 1987’s Some Kind of Wonderful, was located literally just around the corner on Hudson Avenue.  So…

  • Halloween 2011 with Matthew Lillard

    Halloween 2011 with Matthew Lillard

    ‘ Well, the stalking gods have definitely been smiling down upon me as of late because this year I experienced what was quite simply the Best. Halloween. Ever.  It was an absolute whirlwind and I honestly do not know how any future Halloween can ever compare!  It all started a couple of weeks ago when…

  • Jane’s House from “Big Little Lies”

    Jane’s House from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ I am extremely biased when it comes to my former stomping ground of Pasadena, where I lived for close to 15 years.  Though I’ve heard on more than one occasion from L.A. denizens that the city is too suburban and too far removed from the hustle and bustle of urban life, I think it…

  • Grand Central Air Terminal from “Pee-wee’s Big Adventure”

    Grand Central Air Terminal from “Pee-wee’s Big Adventure”

    ‘ While doing research for yesterday’s post (which you can read here), I came across a page on IMDB that stated that the bus station scene from Pee-wee’s Big Adventure was filmed at the Glendale Amtrak Station.  I knew from previous cyber-stalking, though, that the Pee-wee bus station scene was actually filmed a few miles…

  • The Donna Martin Graduates Protest Site

    The Donna Martin Graduates Protest Site

    ‘ As big of a Beverly Hills, 90210 fan as I am, it will probably come as a shock to learn that up until recently I had yet to stalk the spot where one of the show’s most iconic moments was filmed – Burbank City Hall, aka the Donna Martin Graduates protest site from the…
