    Happy Thanksgiving!

    ‘ I am taking today and the rest of the week off to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family.  My mom and I are in charge of dinner this year (it’s my first time ever!), so I’m sure by the time this post is published, I’ll be knee-deep in turkey preparations.  I hope all of my…

    Anthony’s House from Twilight Zone: The Movie”

    ‘ Perhaps no film in the history of filmdom has been as mired in controversy as Twilight Zone: The Movie.  Bring up the 1983 thriller to anyone and talk will likely turn to the death of three of its actors in a harrowing and, what has been argued, completely avoidable accident.  On July 23rd, 1982…

    The Barclay Hotel from “As Good As It Gets”

    ‘ This past weekend, the Grim Cheaper and I re-watched the movie As Good As It Gets, which I had not seen since it first came out in theatres almost 15 years ago.  I am ashamed to admit that I had somehow forgotten what a great flick it is!  While watching, I, of course, became…

    Myra Jones’ Former House

    ‘ Though I love true crime and pretty much all of its facets, there are some cases that I find too sad and disturbing to read about, research, do any stalking of, or feature on my blog.  Today’s locale, the site of the brutal rape and murder of a 71-year-old grandma, is not one I…

    Barney’s Beanery in West Hollywood

    ‘ Another location that has long been stockpiled (or should I say stalk-piled?) in my ever-growing stalking backlog is the original Barney’s Beanery restaurant in West Hollywood, which has been featured in numerous productions over the years and which I visited with fellow stalker Chas, from the It’sFilmedThere website, this past July.  For whatever reason,…

    The Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead House

    ‘ Thought I’d take a little break today from writing about New York filming locations as there is a movie house that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I stalked a few weeks back that I am just dying to blog about – Christina Applegate’s home from fave movie Don’t Tell Mom the Babysitter’s Dead!  I swear,…

    The Infamous Solar Drive Mansion

    ‘ Shortly before Halloween, my good friend Nat sent me a link to an article on the TopTenRealEstateDeals website (an article that I now maddeningly cannot find anywhere online) about the top ten haunted houses then for sale in the U.S.  My interest was immediately piqued at one of the properties featured when I read…

  • The Cat & Fiddle

    The Cat & Fiddle

    ‘ We’ll always have the Cat & Fiddle.  Or so Angelinos thought.  Sadly, the historic restaurant closed its doors this past December.  When news of the impending shuttering hit the blogosphere in late October, I became desperate to stalk the eatery – especially once I read via several online news outlets that it had appeared…

    Charlie’s Angels

    ‘ I must admit that I absolutely loved the first Charlie’”‘”‘s Angels movie, so when I found the location of the headquarters of Charles Townsend Investigations in my stalking tome last weekend, I just had to stalk it. This same location was used in both the filming of the Charlie’”‘”‘s Angels television show back in…
