    Taking Another Day Off!

    ‘ I, unfortunately, bit off a bit more than I could chew once again with the post I had planned on publishing today and did not finish it in time.  But I will be back on Monday with a very lengthy article on a very cool location. So until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

  • Vincent Price in Thriller

    Vincent Price in Thriller

    ‘ At the risk of this site dwelling far too excessively on the recent sad passing of pop star Michael Jackson, I just had to write one more blog post about him.  Or, rather, about his legendary music video Thriller and one of its main filming locations. I received an email last night with the above photograph…

  • The Pasadena Playhouse

    The Pasadena Playhouse

    ‘ My boyfriend and I happened to walk past the Pasadena Playhouse this past weekend, and I just had to walk inside to stalk it. 🙂 The Pasadena Playhouse, although not a filming location, is one of the oldest and most distinguished community theatres in the US. The Playhouse has hosted hundreds of notable actors…

    The “Keep It Together” Park from “Beverly Hills, 90210”

    ‘ Another location that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I visited during our Valley stalking day back in October was the Van Nuys – Sherman Oaks War Memorial Park, aka the spot where Brandon Walsh was “discovered” in the Season One episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 entitled “Fame Is Where You Find It”.    The War Memorial…

  • Skylark Hotel from “Palm Swings”

    Skylark Hotel from “Palm Swings”

    ‘ One of the best parts of starting this blog is the many connections I’ve been able to make with people who share this unique predilection of mine.  I recently had the pleasure of meeting up with mid-century-modern-house-stalker George Smart, of the USModernist website, who was in town for Palm Springs’ annual Modernism Week.  He…

    Dealey Plaza – Where JFK Was Assassinated

    ‘ As most of my fellow stalkers already well know due to the deluge of media attention, today marks the fiftieth anniversary of the assassination of John F. Kennedy.  I was not yet even a twinkle in my parents’ eyes on November 22nd, 1963, so I did not experience the tragic events firsthand, but they…

    The Well from the Manhattan Well Murder of 1799

    ‘ Oh, do I love a good ghost story!  Back in 2014, my friend Owen, from the When Write Is Wrong blog, sent me an article about a well in New York that was the site of an infamous 1799 murder.  The seven-foot by five-foot well, situated in the basement of a SoHo building that…

    The Michael Jackson Auditorium at Gardner Street Elementary School

    ‘ A few weeks ago, fellow stalker and mega-MJ-aficionado David from Spain told me about a King of Pop location that I wasn’t previously aware of – the Michael Jackson Auditorium at Gardner Street Elementary School.  So, of course, I just had to run right out and stalk it!  MJ attended the Hollywood area school…

  • The Millennium Biltmore Hotel

    The Millennium Biltmore Hotel

    ‘ One of my favorite places to visit in all of LA is the Millennium Biltmore Hotel, located in Downtown Los Angeles. The hotel is also a favorite of film producers and it has been used in more productions than I can blog about. The hotel was built in 1923 and at the time was…

    Antonio’s Pizzeria – A Shannen Doherty Fave

    ‘ Way back in September 2011, while the Grim Cheaper and I were out and about doing some stalking in the San Fernando Valley area, we happened to drive past Antonio’s Pizzeria and the GC suggested that we pop in.  He had dined at Antonio’s several times in the past and remembered that the place…
