Lauren Conrad’s Park La Brea Apartment
‘ Since LC will soon be moving on up, I thought I’”‘”‘d put up her old address for people to stalk while they still have the chance. On , Lauren’”‘”‘s apartment was always referred to as “The Hillside Villas in West Hollywood”, but LC’”‘”‘s apartment was actually located in Los Angeles in a complex called…

Johnson Lake in Pasadena from “Celebrity Rehab”
‘ A couple of weeks ago, while trying to track down the lake house belonging to Donna Meagle (Retta) in the Season 4 episode of Parks and Recreation titled “Sweet Sixteen”, I discovered that there was a lake in Pasadena and just about fell right off my chair! Having lived in the area – as…

The Zane Grey Pueblo Hotel
‘ While in Catalina this past week, as much as I wanted to stay at the Pavilion Lodge, my family instead opted to book a room at a little place called the Zane Grey Pueblo Hotel. And even though it’”‘”‘s never been a filming location, because the hotel was once the private residence of world-renowned author…

The “Why Him?” House
‘ I don’t like to think of myself as a brat, but I’d be lying if I did not admit to having brat-like tendencies when it comes to choosing what movie to watch with the Grim Cheaper on any given Saturday night. Typically I veto all of his recommendations straight out of the gate and…

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…

Nuart Theatre from “Foul Play”
‘ I was hesitant to include today’s locale in with my Haunted Hollywood postings being that the Nuart Theatre is neither haunted nor a horror movie location, per se. But the small arthouse venue did cameo in one of my favorite thrillers/comedies – 1978’s Foul Play – as the site of a murder, no less,…

Insomnia Cafe – The Inspiration for “Friends”
‘ Oh, to be able to visit a coffee shop, order a steaming latte and sit in a secluded corner sipping away! Hard to believe that is something unattainable right now. These certainly are strange days we are living in. When things do get back to normal, one spot I am itching to re-patronize is…
