    “The Bedroom Window” Apartment

    ‘ I am always on the lookout for new thrillers and scary movies to watch, especially during this time of year.  While researching Baltimore locations in preparation for our recent trip to the Old Line State, I came across information about the brownstone apartment featured in The Bedroom Window.  I had never seen the 1987…

    The Michael Buble “Crazy Love” Concert – A Second Time!

    ‘ Last Monday night, my mom, my dad, the Grim Cheaper, and I all headed to Staples Center in Downtown Los Angeles to attend the final show of Michael Buble’s “Crazy Love” Tour.  And, as you can imagine, I could NOT have been more excited!  When I attended the cutie crooner’s concert back in April of…

  • Jefferson Market Garden

    Jefferson Market Garden

    ‘ Another Sex and the City  location that I re-stalked while in New York last month was Jefferson Market Garden, the spot where the series’ ever-present cynic Miranda Hobbs finally married long-time boyfriend Steve Brady in the Season 6 episode entitled “The Ick Factor”.  I first stalked this location back in December of 2006, but…

  • Britney Spears’ Former Santa Monica Condo

    Britney Spears’ Former Santa Monica Condo

    ‘ Got a from Kayli today, who challenged me to find Britney Spears‘”‘”‘ house. Since Britney’”‘”‘s current home is located far from public view in a gated community, I thought I’”‘”‘d instead blog about a past residence of Ms. Spears. While Brit did not call this condo home during any of her recent mental breakdowns,…

  • The Cobb Estate from “Phantasm”

    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…

  • Aunt Mitsy’s House from “Rumor Has It”

    Aunt Mitsy’s House from “Rumor Has It”

    ‘ One location that I have been on the lookout for for what seems like ages now is the home where Aunt Mitsy (aka Kathy Bates) lived in the 2005 movie Rumor Has It.  Even though I was never a particularly big fan of the flick, I pretty much fell in love with Aunt Mitsy’s…

  • Louise’s House from “Teen Witch”

    Louise’s House from “Teen Witch”

    ‘ It is finally that time of year again, my favorite time of year – October!  And you know what that means – it is the start of my annual Haunted Hollywood postings!  What better way to kick things off than with a location from the much-loved movie Teen Witch? Somehow I only just discovered…

  • Hyatt Westlake Plaza from “The Karate Kid”

    Hyatt Westlake Plaza from “The Karate Kid”

    ‘ 2014 was definitely the year of The Karate Kid.  Not only did the flick turn thirty, but two of its missing locations were finally found – Mr. Miyagi’s house, which I blogged about here, and the fictional Encino Oaks Country Club, which, as it turns out, was actually the Hyatt Westlake Plaza hotel in…

  • Zipper Concert Hall from “The West Wing”

    Zipper Concert Hall from “The West Wing”

    ‘ Most actors will tell you that extra work is the worst.  But when I first landed in L.A. back in 2000, I did quite a bit of it and couldn’t have enjoyed myself more.  Just being on a movie or television set was surreal and provided an indelible opportunity to observe the inner workings…

  • The Martini House from “It’s A Wonderful Life”

    The Martini House from “It’s A Wonderful Life”

    ‘ As difficult as it may be to believe, even though I absolutely love Christmas and even though I am a huge film buff, up until this past weekend I had never in my life watched the 1946 holiday classic It’s A Wonderful Life. I know, I know, for a person like me, not having…
