  • Abbot’s Habit from “The Truth About Cats & Dog”

    Abbot’s Habit from “The Truth About Cats & Dog”

    ‘ Last Saturday, after stalking the Venice exterior of O’Hara’s Pub from Bad Santa (which I blogged about here), the Grim Cheaper and I decided to walk around Abbot Kinney Boulevard for a bit.  At one point during our stroll, we passed by a corner coffee shop named Abbot’s Habit and I recognized it immediately…

  • The “Fracture” House

    The “Fracture” House

    ‘ A few weeks ago, while doing some cyberstalking, I came across a fabulous filming locations database named Unreel Locations and I just about died when I saw a listing for what the site referred to as “The Fracture House”.  I immediately recognized the property as the ultra modern abode where Ted Crawford (aka Anthony…

  • Nuart Theatre from “Foul Play”

    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,…

  • Mr. Big’s Church

    Mr. Big’s Church

    ‘ One New York location that I have long been wanting to stalk is the church featured in the Season One episode of entitled “Oh Come All Ye Faithful”. In the episode Carrie, while doing some research on religion for her weekly column, stumbles upon Big and his mother coming out of a church one…

  • The Central Park Boathouse – Where Carrie and Big Went Swimming

    The Central Park Boathouse – Where Carrie and Big Went Swimming

    ‘ One of my very favorite episodes of (oh, who am I kidding – every episode is my favorite episode!) was the Season Three Finale when Carrie decides, after much deliberation and a big fight with Miranda, to meet Mr. Big for lunch. Just before the lunch, Carrie promises Miranda that no matter what happens…

  • Los Angeles Pet Memorial Park

    Los Angeles Pet Memorial Park

    ‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk ever since first moving to Southern California in 2000 was the Los Angeles Pet Memorial Park in Calabasas.  For whatever reason, though, in over twelve years time, I had never made it out there.  Then, this past September, while gathering addresses for my annual Haunted Hollywood…

  • P.S. I Love You

    P.S. I Love You

    ‘ In honor of the big premiere that took place on Tuesday night, I just had to do a little stalking this past weekend. Since my boyfriend and I were out in Palm Springs for a little Labor Day vacay, I dragged him to the Rancho Las Palmas Resort and Spa which was featured in…

  • The “7th Heaven” House

    The “7th Heaven” House

    ‘ Got a challenge a few months back from a man named Glenn who wanted me to locate the house used as the Camden residence on the Aaron Spelling television series 7th Heaven.   Unfortunately, though, this challenge proved to be rather difficult as there are quite a few conflicting rumors about the home’”‘”‘s location floating around online.  The general consensus on most of…

  • Shakers Family Restaurant from “Old School”

    Shakers Family Restaurant from “Old School”

    ‘ Today’s locale is another one of those facepalm spots.  For ages, I had been trying to track down the interior of the diner where Mitch (Owen Wilson) and the boys discussed saving their fraternity in the 2003 comedy Old School.  While I had long known that Montrose Bakery & Café (which, sadly, Yelp is…

  • The Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco

    The Walt Disney Family Museum in San Francisco

    ‘ Last Sunday morning, after checking out of the spectacular San Francisco loft where my bachelorette party was held, my friend Nat and I headed over to the historic former Presidio Army Base to stalk the recently-opened Walt Disney Family Museum.  Knowing what a Disney freak I am, Nat figured that the museum would be…
