  • 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…

  • The “Splitting Up Together” House

    The “Splitting Up Together” House

    ‘ Being that four of my favorite shows were recently cancelled, I have been on the lookout for alternative series to watch.  So when a fellow stalker named Catherine contacted me last week to ask if I had any intel on the location of the house from ABC’s new comedy Splitting Up Together, I welcomed…

  • JFK and Jackie’s Former Georgetown Homes

    JFK and Jackie’s Former Georgetown Homes

    ‘ Considering how much I love history, I know shockingly little about former President John F. Kennedy and his wife, Jacqueline.  So I was thrilled when the Grim Cheaper gifted me with Jackie, Janet & Lee: The Secret Lives of Janet Auchincloss and Her Daughters Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis and Lee Radziwill last Christmas.  The 2018…

  • The “George Lopez” House

    The “George Lopez” House

    ‘ The Grim Cheaper and I watch a LOT of television – something I’ve mentioned many times on this blog.  Somehow we still miss quite a few shows, though, like George Lopez which ran on ABC from 2002 to 2007.  Nonetheless, when a fellow stalker named Jonathan emailed me back in 2016 to let me…

  • Helen Twelvetrees’ House

    Helen Twelvetrees’ House

    ‘ A couple of weeks ago I picked up a book that is quickly shaping up to be my new stalking tome.  It’”‘”‘s called Movie Star Homes: The Famous to the Forgotten and it features photographs and addresses of over 350 celebrity homes, most of them from the Golden Age of Hollywood.  I have never really been much into the…

  • Hope and Michael’s House from “thirtysomething”

    Hope and Michael’s House from “thirtysomething”

    ‘ I think Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick are two of the greatest television producers ever to walk the face of the earth.  Oddly though, while I am obsessed with both My So-Called Life and Relativity (as evidenced here and here), I was never a fan of thirtysomething, one of their earliest forays into the…

  • The Governor’s Mansion from “Benson”

    The Governor’s Mansion from “Benson”

    ‘ A few weeks ago while out stalking in Pasadena I stopped to take some pics of the mansion that was used as the home of Governor Gatling in the 1979 television series . I had actually stalked this mansion eight years before when I first moved to Southern California, but had yet to blog…

  • Hacienda Palomino – Michael Jackson’s Former Las Vegas House

    Hacienda Palomino – Michael Jackson’s Former Las Vegas House

    ‘ I am not really that into stalking celebrity homes (though I have quite a few of them on my site), the main reason being that typically little else besides a gate can be seen from the road.  There are some exceptions, though.  If there is a star I really like, or if I read…

  • Clark Gable’s Former House

    Clark Gable’s Former House

    ‘ Speaking of Clark Gable . . . another location that I stalked recently was the Encino-area ranch where the “King of Hollywood” lived for over two decades.  I first read about this locale, as I did yesterday’s (the Playa del Rey house where Judy Lewis, Gable and Loretta Young’s secret love child, was born),…

  • The Starsky & Hutch Mansion

    The Starsky & Hutch Mansion

    ‘ A few weeks ago, my mom drove me by what has to be one of the biggest houses I’”‘”‘ve ever seen in my entire life!  The property spans almost an entire city block!  When you drive by it literally just keeps on going and going and going!  LOL  My mom showed me the absolutely ginormous…
