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,…

The Mystery of the “Melissa & Joey” House
‘ In February, I received a challenge from a fellow stalker named Jill who wanted to know about the home belonging to Melissa Burke (Melissa Joan Hart) on the ABC Family sitcom Melissa & Joey. The residence looked familiar to her and she was fairly certain that it had been used previously in another series. …

The Guesthouse Hotel from “National Lampoon’s Vacation”
‘ Once fellow stalker Owen, of the When Write Is Wrong blog, tracked down the Town House Motel from National Lampoon’s Vacation (which I blogged about here) a couple of weeks back, he set about trying to find the hexagon-shaped pool where Clark W. Griswold (Chevy Chase) went skinny dipping with The Girl in the…

My Coffee With Andre – Agassi, That Is!
‘ A few years back, an email entitled “You Know You’re From Los Angeles When . . . “ which was comprised of a list of “Only in L.A.” scenarios circled the World Wide Web. My personal favorite item on the list was number 28 which stated, “The guy at 8:30 in the morning at…

The Witch’s House from “Clueless”
‘ One of my favorite sites to stalk in all of Beverly Hills is known simply as “The Witch’”‘”‘s House” and it just so happens to fit in perfectly with this month’”‘”‘s Halloween theme. Although not really a filming location, the house is a Beverly Hills landmark of sorts. Known formally as “The Spadena House”,…

Ronnie and Amber’s House from “Modern Family”
‘ This season of Modern Family brought to life a storyline that is basically my worst fear – nightmare neighbors. Poor Phil (Ty Burrell) and Claire Dunphy (Julie Bowen) had their tranquility disturbed in the episode titled “Won’t You Be Our Neighbor” when loudmouth medicinal marijuana dealer Ronnie LaFontaine (Steve Zahn), his wife, Amber (Andrea…

Aria’s House from “Pretty Little Liars”
‘ I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – stalking begets stalking! One of the Vancouver locations I was most interested in finding from the Pretty Little Liars pilot was the gorgeous Craftsman-style house where doe-eyed beauty Aria Montgomery (Lucy Hale) lived. There was virtually nothing to go on, though – no address…

Hotel Shangri-La from “The Bachelor”
‘ This past Sunday morning (which was particularly cloudy, as you can see above), the Grim Cheaper and I headed out to Santa Monica to run a couple of errands and while there we happened to walk by the Hotel Shangri-La – a historic Art Deco masterpiece that I have wanted to stalk ever since…

Skylark Hotel from “Palm Swings”
‘ One of the best parts of starting this blog is the many connections I’ve been able to make with people who share this unique predilection of mine. I recently had the pleasure of meeting up with mid-century-modern-house-stalker George Smart, of the USModernist website, who was in town for Palm Springs’ annual Modernism Week. He…

Dana’s House from “The Goldbergs”
‘ Brenda and Dylan. Winnie and Kevin. Rachel and Joey. Adam and Dana. All TV couples who didn’t wind up together, but who, in my never-to-be-humble opinion, really should have. Though, since The Goldbergs is still on the air, I guess there’s still hope for the latter two. I mean, any romance that starts out…
