    “The Princess Diaries” Firehouse

    ‘ My friend Nat is a definite hostess with the mostest.  When I last visited her in San Francisco in October 2016, she not only had champagne chilling in the fridge, but an itinerary of area stalking locales she thought might interest me compiled and mapped out on her phone.  The spot on the list…

    Malibu Hindu Temple from “Beverly Hills Ninja”

    ‘ A couple of weeks back, while doing research on the Calabasas-area mansion where the contestants live on the fabulous Bachelor parody series Burning Love (which I blogged about here), I came across a blurb in fave book Los Angeles Attractions detailing the Malibu Hindu Temple.  I had never before heard of the place, but…

    The Great Quake of ’08!

    ‘ Yesterday morning at around 11:42am a fairly large earthquake hit the LA area. I received a text message from a friend, who forgot that I am currently on vacation in Hawaii, asking if I felt the quake. My first thought was ” OMG! My Marilyn Merlot bottle!” LOL The bottle of Marilyn wine that…

    ‘ Over the years there have been several locations used around LA for the filming of the Peach Pit on my fave TV show, Beverly Hills, 90210. And now there is one more location to add to the already long list. My buddy Mike over at MovieShotsLA gave me the scoop on last week’”‘”‘s filming…

    ‘ Because I spent all day yesterday doing some location scouting with Mike, from MovieShotsLA – including an amazing visit to the WB Ranch!!!! – I was not able to write a new post for today.  But I promise to be back tomorrow with a whole new location.  So until next time, Happy Stalking! ‘

  • The “One Hour Photo” House

    The “One Hour Photo” House

    ‘ Today’s location is not spooky – at all, in fact.  It’s actually quite exquisite.  But it did figure rather heavily in the creepiest scene from one of the creepiest movies I’ve ever seen, so I thought it would only be fitting to include it in my Haunted Hollywood postings.  I am talking about the…

  • Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day

    Happy Martin Luther King Jr. Day

    ‘ When initially writing out “Martin Luther King Jr.” in the above title, I made a mistake, spelling his last name “Kind” instead of “King.”  Talk about an apropos typo!  Today, as we celebrate the birth of the great leader, whose example of compassion and love has proved everlasting, let’s remember to be kind to…

  • Vasquez Rocks County Park

    Vasquez Rocks County Park

    ‘ One location that I have been dying to stalk for what seems like ages now is Vasquez Rocks County Park in Agua Dulce, California.  I first read about the park in fave stalking book Hollywood Escapes: The Moviegoer’s Guide to Exploring Southern California’s Great Outdoors about 7 months ago and absolutely begged my fiancé…

    and Jeremy Piven Nightclub from “Arrested Development”

    ‘ Thanks to Netflix streaming and the boredom of summer reruns, I just recently started watching Arrested Development.  And, let me tell you, I am hooked!  My interest in the show was first piqued when I randomly came across this Wikia article about a fictitious nightclub on the series named “and Jeremy Piven.” I just…
