    The Union Theological Seminary Rotunda from “The Ice Storm”

    ‘ Locations have been making impressions on me for ages, long before I even knew stalking was a thing.  Case in point – way back in 1997 while watching The Ice Storm, I became fixated on the ornate stone staircase Libbets Casey (Katie Holmes) walked down in an early scene.  Even though I only saw…

    Lester Siegel’s House from “Argo”

    ‘ Today’s post is the very first blog written from my new home in the desert. The Grim Cheaper and I moved last Wednesday (it took over 15 hours!) and are finally getting settled in to our Palm Springs pad. There is still quite a bit left to complete, though, and, while the hyper-organized/anal/OCD-side of…

    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 “A Few Good Men” Softball Field

    ‘ I don’t know – or care – much about sports.  I do love me some Tom Cruise, though.  So when my friend/fellow stalker Owen, from the When Write Is Wrong blog, sent me his list of Washington, D.C./Philadelphia-area locales prior to my trip back east last September, I was thrilled to see the softball…

    Hollywood Center Motel

    ‘ A few weeks ago, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, called me up to ask me if I knew that my latest Hollywood crush, Simon Baker, had one of his earliest acting roles in the 1997 movie  L.A. Confidential.  And I almost fell out of my chair!  Even though I’”‘”‘ve seen that movie about a hundred times, I never realized…

    ‘ Just got a comment from La on my 90210 post – she wishes I had taken my stalking a little further and stalked Kelly and Donna’”‘”‘s beach apartment from 90210′”‘”‘s college years.

  • Caesars Palace from “The Hangover”

    Caesars Palace from “The Hangover”

    ‘ My recent trip to Las Vegas with the Grim Cheaper was magical, due in large part to the fact that we stayed at Caesars Palace.  Neither the GC nor I had ever stayed there before and, while planning our trip, I decided to see what the rates were.  I happened to find a remarkably…

    The Daisy – Where O.J. Simpson and Nicole Brown Met

    ‘ I love a good true-crime podcast.  One that recently got me hooked is Confronting: O.J. Simpson with Kim Goldman, which just finished its first season.  In it, the sister of murder victim Ronald Goldman interviews numerous key players in the so-called Trial of the Century, including jurors, prosecutors, witnesses and one of the defense…

    ‘ This past weekend, my fiance and I rented the movie Taken – which was phenomenal, by the way!!!! – and I immediately recognized a home featured in it that was originally used in a Season One episode of fave show Beverly Hills, 90210.  I have been dying to stalk the home for the past few years, but, unfortunately, it…
