  • MK & A’s Alma Mater

    MK & A’s Alma Mater

    ‘ I must admit that I have long been a fan of the Olsen twins. What can I say – they are my guilty pleasure. Even today I still enjoy renting their movies (New York Minute is a personal favorite!) and, yes, I even have the Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen fashion dolls! LOL Currently, I…

  • Halloween 2012 at Dick Van Dyke’s House

    Halloween 2012 at Dick Van Dyke’s House

    ‘ As I have mentioned countless times before, this stalker is just a wee bit obsessed with the movie Burlesque.  Upon first seeing the flick in 2010, I fell head-over-heels in love with the “But I Am a Good Girl” number (which you can watch by clicking above) and Ali’s (Christina Aguilera’s) feathered costume, and…

  • Martin Luther King Day!

    Martin Luther King Day!

    ‘ I will be taking a respite from blogging today in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day. I will actually be spending the entire day with Mike, from MovieShotsLA – one last stalking hurrah before my move to the Desert on Wednesday. I do promise to be back tomorrow, though, with a whole new…

  • The Reichman Mansion from “Major Crimes”

    The Reichman Mansion from “Major Crimes”

    ‘ The weather in L.A. has finally turned and there is now a crispness in the air ensuring that jacket season is finally upon us.  It is also, unfortunately, time to bid adieu to this year’s Haunted Hollywood postings.  Sadness!  For the next eleven months, I will just be writing about regular ol’ stalking locations. …

  • Skylight Books from “Joan of Arcadia”

    Skylight Books from “Joan of Arcadia”

    ‘ Another Los Feliz location that the Grim Cheaper and I stalked two weekends ago was Skylight Books, the bookstore where Joan Girardi (aka Amber Tamblyn) worked on the 2003 television series Joan of Arcadia.  In a very synchronicitous twist of fate, the GC and I had visited Skylight Books way back in October of…

  • The Golden Spoon Cafe from “The Brady Bunch”

    The Golden Spoon Cafe from “The Brady Bunch”

    ‘ My best friend, Robin, is currently in town with his girlfriend for a week visiting from Switzerland, so I will not be blogging about this year’s Halloween activities until next Tuesday. I will also be taking most of this week off, though I will, as always, have an article on Los Angeles magazine on…

  • Just Another Day In L.A.!

    Just Another Day In L.A.!

    ‘ On Monday, I decided to do a little stalking of the horror movie Scream 2, a movie which I am sad to say was nowhere near as good as its predecessor. But since I had found the address of the fraternity house used in the movie and since the location fit in with my…

  • Café Descanso from “Big Little Lies”

    Café Descanso from “Big Little Lies”

    ‘ My mom recently commented to me that the latest season of Big Little Lies is shot very tightly, which she finds surprising being that director Andrea Arnold sought to feature more of the great outdoors this time around.  Even Blissful Drip Café, the prop coffee shop built specifically for the series on a bluff…

  • The “L.A. Story” Brunch Restaurant

    The “L.A. Story” Brunch Restaurant

    ‘ One L.A. Story location that I never in a million years thought I would be able to stalk was the exterior of the fictional Dr. Dalmar’s eatery (said to be located on the corner of Sunset and Crescent), where Harris K. Telemacher (Steve Martin) and his girlfriend Trudi (Marilu Henner) brunched with some friends…

  • Halloween at Dick Van Dyke’s House

    Halloween at Dick Van Dyke’s House

    ‘ While doing research on the Strode House from Halloween a couple of weeks back, I came across a blog post about the extravagant yard haunt that actor Dick Van Dyke hosts every Halloween at his home in Malibu.  And while you wouldn’t think it would be possible, being that I have lived in Southern…
