Neve Campbell’s Former Haunted House
‘ I love a good haunted house, especially at this time of year. One owned by a celebrity is even better. One owned by the star of my favorite horror film of all time? Well, I can’t think of anything more thrilling – or more perfectly suited to my annual October postings. So when I…

Voletta Wallace’s House from “Unsolved: The Murders of Tupac & the Notorious B.I.G.”
‘ I have never been a fan of rap. My musical tastes tend to run far more tepid (read: Michael Bublé, Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, and ‘80s pop). The Grim Cheaper likes to joke that my iPod song list hasn’t been updated since I first got the device back in 2001. Regardless, when I heard…

Where You Are Almost Guaranteed A Britney Sighting!
‘ Ever since she shimmied down a hallway in her video (which was filmed entirely at Venice High School, by the way) I have been obsessed with BritBrit. I can’”‘”‘t tell you how many times I have dressed up as Britney for Halloween! And I was even an extra in the Britney Spears movie! Nowadays Britney…

Andy’s Coffee Shop from the “Cups” Music Video
‘ There is nothing my mom likes better than a greasy spoon-type restaurant.

The Central Park Boathouse Cafe
‘ One of the locations that I was most excited about stalking while in New York last month was a little restaurant named the Central Park Boathouse Cafe, also known as the Loeb Boathouse.

The First Beverly Hills House
‘ As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, fellow stalker E.J., from The Movieland Directory website, recently published an e-book about Old Hollywood titled Unscripted: Hollywood Back-Stories, Volume 1 (which you can purchase on Nook here and on Kindle here). I read the entire tome – which was fascinating, by the way – in…

The Evers’ House from “The Haunted Mansion”
‘ My Los Angeles magazine editor is on vacation this week, so I will not have a post on LAmag.com today. To make up for it, though, I’ve got a Haunted Hollywood locale for you right here! One of my favorite parts about the Halloween season is watching scary movies. (And of course stalking their…

Pasadena Central Library from “Foul Play”
‘ It’s my favorite day of the year! No, it’s not Halloween already – it’s October 1st, which marks the start of my annual Haunted Hollywood postings and the beginning of the Halloween season (well, it marks the latter for most people, anyway – I started decorating for the holiday weeks ago!). To kick things…

Jack Ryan’s House from “Clear and Present Danger”
‘ The Grim Cheaper was anxiously awaiting last Friday’s premiere of the new Amazon series Jack Ryan. There was practically a countdown going on in our house. When we finally viewed the first episode, though, my only thought was ‘I want that hour and four minutes of my life back.’ Needless to say, we were…
