  • Elegant Manor

    Elegant Manor

    ‘ Because there’s nothing this stalker loves more than history and abandoned locations, my BFF Mike, from MovieShotsLA, once took me by a dilapidated old West Adams house known as Elegant Manor that has quite a backstory.  This was years ago, though, and, while I knew the place was a filming location (thanks to this…

  • Lake Arrowhead’s North Shore Marina Beach from “Vanderpump Rules”

    Lake Arrowhead’s North Shore Marina Beach from “Vanderpump Rules”

    ‘ Some television moments are so iconic they cannot be forgotten.  A few that are ingrained in my memory for the long haul – Ross and Rachel’s rain-soaked first kiss on Friends, Sam and Diane’s slapping fight on Cheers, Dylan’s epic tantrum (complete with a shattered potted plant) during his first date with Brenda on…

  • Merry Christmas!

    ‘ I would like to wish my fellow stalkers a very merry Christmas.  I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday with family and friends.  I will be taking some time off to celebrate with my loved ones, but will be back in January.  I also apologize for not having a new post up for a…

    Watching the Filming of “True Blood”

    ‘ Last Wednesday evening I got a text from the owner of POP Champagne & Dessert Bar – my very favorite restaurant and the spot where the Grim Cheaper and I held the rehearsal dinner for our wedding last August – alerting me to the fact that the hit HBO television series True Blood would…

  • Palm Springs Weekend!

    Palm Springs Weekend!

    ‘ This past Friday morning the Grim Cheaper and I headed out to Palm Springs for a little three-day getaway and, while I did manage to sneak some stalking into the trip, I was unfortunately not able to write a blog post for today. But I will be back tomorrow with a whole new location,…

    Holden’s House from “The Good Girl”

    ‘ Another Simi Valley location that Mike, from MovieShotsLA, suggested I stalk this past Saturday after my and the Grim Cheaper’s American Jewish University Brandeis-Barden Campus snafu (which you can read about here) was the supposed Texas-area home where Holden Worther (Jake Gyllenhaal) lived in my favorite movie of all-time, The Good Girl.  Ha, just…

  • The 101 Coffee Shop from “Swingers”

    The 101 Coffee Shop from “Swingers”

    ‘ One location that I have wanted to stalk ever since moving to Los Angeles over a decade ago, but didn’t because there were numerous erroneous reports floating around online which stated that the place had since closed down, was the 101 Coffee Shop which appeared in the 1996 movie Swingers.  It wasn’t until Mike, from…

  • The Cellular House

    The Cellular House

    ‘ Back in September of last year, while stalking the house from fave 80s movie License to Drive, I just happened to stumble upon another famous movie home – Kim Basinger’”‘”‘s residence from the 2004 flick Cellular.  Well, truth be told, “stumble upon” isn’”‘”‘t exactly the terminology I should be using here. 🙂  The real story is that while taking…

  • The Smith Estate from “Insidious: Chapter 2”

    The Smith Estate from “Insidious: Chapter 2”

    ‘ Considering I’ve been stalking full-time for close to a decade and annually covering Haunted Hollywood locales for just about as long, you’d think I’d have the market on spooky sites cornered by now.  That is definitely not the case, though.  I am continuously discovering new-to-me spots, scary and otherwise, which speaks more to the…

  • Elvis Presley’s Honeymoon Hideaway

    Elvis Presley’s Honeymoon Hideaway

    ‘ While visiting my parents in the Coachella Valley last month, Mike, from MovieShotsLA, suggested that I do a re-stalk of the desert home where Elvis Presley and his new bride, Priscilla, spent their honeymoon in 1967.  I had originally stalked and blogged about the property way back in March 2008, when my website was…
