Watermark On Main
‘ This past weekend, while in Ventura, my parents, my fiance, and I ate dinner at a newly opened restaurant named Watermark On Main. And, even though my eyes are ALWAYS peeled, I wasn’”‘”‘t exactly expecting to see a celeb during our meal. But, sure enough, we did! As it turns out, Watermark is something of…

The Motown 25: Yesterday, Today, Forever Special
‘ I know, I know – it was just last week that I promised not to let my blog go on Michael Jackson overload, but I’”‘”‘m sorry, this one was a must-post! 🙂 The other day, while reading one of the many Michael Jackson tribute magazines that have been published since the pop star’”‘”‘s death – and yes, I bought them all…

The Marsh House from “Happy Land”
‘ Since we’re on the subject of McDonald Avenue (you can read Wednesday’s post about the McDonald Mansion from Pollyanna here), I figured I should write about another of its famous homes. While doing research on the picturesque Santa Rosa street, one of the area’s most oft-filmed spots, prior to my trip up to Northern…

Mary’s House from “All About Steve”
‘ If you listened to critics, you probably think All About Steve has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. You’d be wrong, though. While the 2009 comedy (and I use the term “comedy” loosely) is not remotely funny, boasts an odd storyline, and fails to properly showcase the talents of its fabulous cast, which includes Bradley Cooper,…

The Tam O’Shanter Inn from “Glee”

I found this location thanks to an eagle-eyed stalker who recognized the restaurant immediately while watching the episode back in May. And even though I no…

The Infamous Ray Pruit Stairs
‘ Since moving to the desert last January (I cannot believe it has been a year!), I have wanted to revisit Rancho Las Palmas, the sprawling Rancho Mirage resort where Ray Pruit (Jamie Walters) pushed girlfriend Donna Martin (Tori Spelling) down a flight of stairs in the Season 5 episode of Beverly Hills, 90210 titled…

The Friends Apartment
‘ Another one of my must-see New York filming locations from my first trip to the Big Apple was the Apartment. The apartment is actually located right in the same neighborhood as Carrie’”‘”‘s brownstone and SJP’”‘”‘s house. I could hardly contain myself as we walked up to the building – I felt like I had…

Dan Aykroyd’s Former Haunted House
‘ Another spooky locale that I learned about thanks to fellow stalker E.J., of The Movieland Directory, and his fabulous book Hollywood Death and Scandal Sites was the longtime home of Ghostbuster Dan Aykroyd and his wife, actress Donna Dixon. The residence piqued my interest due to Aykroyd’s claim of numerous hauntings taking place there…

Chabelita Tacos from “Truth or Dare”
‘ Roadside taco stands don’t usually conjure up images of the macabre. Today’s locale is no different. In fact, the eatery – Chabelita Tacos – is a bright and colorful addition to the Harvard Heights skyline. But since it did appear in a memorable scene in the 2018 horror flick Truth or Dare, I thought…
