    Dorothy Stratten’s Former House

    ‘ True crime has always fascinated me.  One case that I had never followed, though (probably because I was barely three years old at the time the events took place), was the murder of Playboy Playmate Dorothy Stratten in 1980.  When my friends Lavonna, Kim, Katie and Kaylee came to L.A. for a visit this…

    The “You, Me and Dupree” House – Revisited

    ‘ Today’s location is one that I have actually already once blogged about – way back in April of 2008 – but because it was a fairly short write-up and because I somehow missed one very pertinent detail when reporting on the place, I decided that it was most-definitely worthy of a re-post.  The location? …

    ‘ My buddy, fellow stalker Owen of the When Write Is Wrong blog, is a huge Jennifer Love Hewitt fan.  Like huge.  He is also a fan of filming locations and, over the years, has managed to track down the vast majority of locales featured in his fave JLH movie, 1998’s Can’t Hardly Wait.  One…

    Weekend Off!

    ‘ Sorry to have been M.I.A. for the past couple of days, but my dad and I spent the end of last week finishing up my closet (pictures to come just as soon as I am done organizing it) and then Miss Pinky Lovejoy, from the Thinking Pink blog, came out to the desert for…

    The “Spanglish” House

    ‘ The Michael J. Fox Theatre in Burnaby, British Columbia, which I blogged about yesterday, was actually the very last Vancouver locale that I had logged away in my location library and, while I have a slew of Seattle area spots that I have yet to write about, I thought that for today I’d mix…

  • The Obsessed House

    The Obsessed House

    ‘ A few weeks ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, called me up and said, “Where is that big pink house in Altadena that you stalked a while back?”  Well, I had absolutely no idea what on earth he was talking about!  For some reason, a “big pink house in Altadena” just wasn’”‘”‘t ringing any bells with me. …

    Taking a Day Off!

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I spent the past weekend visiting my parents in Palm Springs, so I, unfortunately, did not have time to write a new blog post for today.  But I did run into actor Jeremy London while at The Living Desert on Sunday, which was a total thrill!  He was incredibly nice and not…

Conveniently, Lauren‘”‘”‘s new pad is located only half a mile from Speidi’”‘”‘s apartment building on the cutest street in the world! 🙂 Her house is gorgeous in person –…

    Stalking In Pink

    ‘ Got a challenge the other day from Niki all the way over in Greece to stalk some of the locations from her favorite 80s flick Pretty In Pink. I have to admit that before I got the challenge I had never actually seen the movie, so this week I made a special trip to…
