    The Salem Filming Locations of “Hocus Pocus”

    ‘ Today, we have a very special guest post brought to you by my good friend/Hocus Pocus aficionado Katie, who recently took a trip to Salem, Massachusetts to stalk the locations featured in the bewitching (pun intended!) 1993 film.  When she kindly proposed writing a column about her adventure during my Haunted Hollywood postings, I…

    Bemelmans Bar from the “Sex and the City” Movie

    ‘ I must be in a very New York state of mind because here I am yet again blogging about a Big Apple locale – a city landmark, actually – the iconic Bemelmans Bar, which is situated inside of The Carlyle Hotel on Manhattan’s Upper East Side.  I first learned about the popular lounge thanks…

    Carrie and Big’s Penthouse from the “Sex and the City” Movie

    ‘ I know I am in the minority when I say that I like the 2008 Sex and the City movie.  Was it the greatest flick ever?  No.  But I did enjoy it.  Seeing it was like being with old friends again, friends I’d missed ever since the HBO television series went off the air…

  • The “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” Park

    The “Girls Just Want to Have Fun” Park

    ‘ Today’s post was a true labor of love – one that required stalking a location three separate times and a massive amount of help from a fellow stalker named Michael.  While most of the locales from the 1985 movie Girls Just Want to Have Fun (one of my all-time faves) have been tracked down…

    Two Boots To Go West Pizza from “Sex and the City”

    ‘ There’s nothing quite like a slice of New York pizza!  Just watching characters eat a piece on TV or in a movie is enough to make me drool.  So I, of course, had long been dying to stalk the Big Apple pizzeria that appeared in the Season 6 episode of Sex and the City…

  • The First Wives Club Building

    The First Wives Club Building

    ‘ Amazingly enough, I still have a long list of New York filming locations that I have yet to blog about from last year’s trip to the Big Apple.  One of those locations is the Fifth Avenue building where Dan Hedaya lived with his trashy trophy-girlfriend Sarah Jessica Parker in fave movie The First Wives…

  • Location Scout-ing!

    Location Scout-ing!

    ‘ While in New York, I just had to take a jaunt over to the real life bar which stood in for Scout, the watering hole owned by Carrie and Miranda’”‘”‘s exes, Steve and Aiden, on Sex and the City. The bar first showed up in the Season Four episode entitled “Ghost Town”, in which…

  • The “Sex and the City” McDonalds

    The “Sex and the City” McDonalds

    ‘ Today’s location is a bit of a fail and a lucky twist all in one.  My mom always says to trust in the universe – and she’s right.  Things happen for a reason.  This locale – easily one of my most-wanted ever – is proof of that.  I am a pretty simple girl when…
