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…

Shooters Bar & Grill from “Melrose Place”
‘ One location that had been on my “To Stalk” list pretty much ever since I first moved to Southern California over twelve years ago was Fellini’”‘”‘s “Old Country” Italian restaurant – the Hollywood-area eatery that stood in for Shooters Bar & Grill on the 1992 Beverly Hills, 90210–spinoff Melrose Place. And while I was…

Late Night!
‘ The GC and I returned home from Palm Springs very late last night due to the fact that we spent the entire day stalking a celebrity golf tournament, so I was unable to complete a blog post for today. But I will be back tomorrow with a whole new post. Until next time, Happy…

Celeb Dining in the Desert
‘ Got a tip from a good friend who lives in Palm Springs that Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell often frequent the Mexican restaurant Armando’”‘”‘s Bar and Grill when they are in the Desert.

The Figueroa Hotel from “90210”
‘ A couple of years ago, while perusing through an issue of AAA’s Westways Magazine, I spotted an article about Southern California’s nicest most reasonably –priced hotels and, because I was dating the Grim Cheaper at the time, I figured I’d best read through it. Of the ten properties featured in the column, the Moroccan-themed…

Mansion Adena – The “A Haunting in Salem” House
‘ As I mentioned back in October during my Haunted-Hollywood-themed-month, while doing research on the Strode house from Halloween I came across a post on fellow stalker Lisa’s Midnight in the Garden of Evil website about Dick Van Dyke’s annual Halloween extravaganza, which I later had the incredible good fortune to stalk. Lisa’s post also…

Alfred Hitchcock’s Former Home
‘ I tend to get a bit overexuberant when it comes to stalking Haunted Hollywood sites each year and typically wind up with more locations in my stockpile (or should I say stalkpile? ) than there are days in October to blog about them. In fact, it would be safe to say that I have…

Aroma Coffee & Tea Company in Studio City
‘ As I mentioned in Monday’s post, despite my drama-filled day on Friday, this past weekend actually turned out to be pretty darn nice. It all started with a Saturday morning stalking trip out to Studio City’s Aroma Coffee & Tea Company, which I had read about the previous week while doing some online research…

Thornton Gardens from “Funny Girl”
‘ I have never been a big Barbra Streisand fan. Sure, she’s an undeniably talented singer – and actress and director, for that matter – but I’m just not that into music. And that whole Rosie-O’Donnell-having-to-rearrange-her-stage-to-showcase-Barbra’s-better-side thing really turned me off. I won’t even get in to her absolutely cringe-worthy Inside the Actors Studio interview. …
