Pappa Don’s Delicatessen from “Modern Family”
‘ I must apologize in advance for the length of today’s post. I spent most of my day yesterday at the Walk of Fame star ceremony for American Idol creator Simon Fuller – an event which I will be writing about later this week – and therefore did not have time to write a very…

Taking the Day Off
‘ I do not have a new blog to post for today as I spent all day yesterday in the South Bay doing some stalking with Mike, from MovieShotsLA, but I do promise to be back tomorrow with a whole new location. So until that time . . . Happy Stalking! ‘

The (Possible) Cafe from Michael Jackson’s “Beat It” Video
‘ [UPDATE – The Monte Carlo Restaurant is NOT where “Beat It” was filmed. The iconic video was actually shot at the Special Café, located just a few blocks away. You can read all about it here. Even though this post contains erroneous information, I am leaving it up as it chronicles an important part…

Angeles Abbey Memorial Park from “Alias”
‘ Today’s locale is one of my favorite Haunted Hollywood locations ever!

The Pierre Hotel’s Grand Ballroom from “Trainwreck”
‘ I know I am in the minority when I say that I don’t think Amy Schumer is funny. And it’s not for lack of trying on my part. I first learned of the comedian when she appeared on Kaitlyn Bristowe’s season of The Bachelorette and found her schtick to be a bit annoying. Despite…

The Cobb Estate from “Phantasm”
‘ One locale that I came across (thanks to an article on Amoeblog) while doing research for my 2012 Haunted Hollywood posts was the former Cobb Estate in Altadena, the gates of which appeared in the 1979 cult horror film Phantasm. And while I stalked the location shortly thereafter, for whatever reason I never got…

Lou Ferrigno’s I Love You, Man House
‘ Another location from fave movie I Love You, Man that I have been absolutely dying to stalk is the ultra modern, ultra large manse that belonged to Lou Ferrigno in the flick. As always, I enlisted the help of fellow stalker Owen in tracking this location down. Ironically enough, though, around that same time,…

The Daisy – Where O.J. Simpson and Nicole Brown Met
‘ I love a good true-crime podcast. One that recently got me hooked is Confronting: O.J. Simpson with Kim Goldman, which just finished its first season. In it, the sister of murder victim Ronald Goldman interviews numerous key players in the so-called Trial of the Century, including jurors, prosecutors, witnesses and one of the defense…
