  • The ” . . . Baby One More Time” Costume

    The ” . . . Baby One More Time” Costume

    ‘ One of the most important items on my Stalking Bucket List was checked off last week while the Grim Cheaper and I were in Las Vegas.  Way back in October 2010 (while doing research for this post), I learned that Britney Spears’ schoolgirl costume from her 1998 “ . . . Baby One More…

  • The Salem Filming Locations of “Hocus Pocus”

    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…

  • The “Easy A” Coffee Shop

    The “Easy A” Coffee Shop

    ‘ Last Friday, while reading the latest post on Emily Schuman’s fabulous Cupcakes and Cashmere blog, in which she mentioned a recent overnight trip she had taken to Ojai, I was reminded of a stalking adventure along Highway 126 that the Grim Cheaper and I had embarked upon almost two full years ago.  We had…

  • The “Shadow of a Doubt” Remake House

    The “Shadow of a Doubt” Remake House

    ‘ Let’s be honest – remakes are rarely, if ever, good.  Especially if they’re of the made-for-television movie variety.  Despite that fact, when I heard that the house from the 1991 made-for-television remake of Shadow of a Doubt was located right across the street from the pad featured in the 1943 original, I just had…

  • Dan Aykroyd’s Former Haunted House

    Dan Aykroyd’s Former Haunted House

    ‘ Another spooky locale that I learned about thanks to fellow stalker E.J., of The Movieland Directory, and his fabulous book Hollywood Death and Scandal Sites was the longtime home of Ghostbuster Dan Aykroyd and his wife, actress Donna Dixon.  The residence piqued my interest due to Aykroyd’s claim of numerous hauntings taking place there…

  • Idle Time Books from “A Few Good Men”

    Idle Time Books from “A Few Good Men”

    ‘ There’s pretty much nothing I love more than bookstores.  They run second only to Starbucks and film locations in my book (pun intended).  If I come across a good one, I can get lost amongst the stacks for hours.  So there was no way I was leaving Washington D.C. without checking out Idle Time…

  • Santa Monica Cop

    Santa Monica Cop

    ‘ This weekend I dragged my boyfriend to stalk the mansion that Eddie Murphy and his new cop buddies storm at the end of the movie Beverly Hills Cop. The house is not actually located in Beverly Hills, but a good 20 minutes in Santa Monica. The home is absolutely ginormous – I mean the…

  • Anavrin from “You”

    Anavrin from “You”

    ‘ I loved Season 1 of You, but Season 2 was even more gripping, engrossing and enjoyable!  I think a large part of that had to do with Anavrin (pronounced “uh-nah-vrin”), the impossibly idyllic grocery store where Joe Goldberg (Penn Badgley) landed a job in episode 1, “A Fresh Start,” and worked throughout.  The charming…

  • On the Set of “NCIS: Los Angeles”

    On the Set of “NCIS: Los Angeles”

    ‘ This past Thursday afternoon, my fiancé called me up to let me know that an episode of NCIS: Los Angeles was being filmed at the YWCA building in Pasadena, just a few blocks away from his office.  So, I immediately grabbed my jacket and my camera and headed over to the set with one goal…

  • April’s House from “Glee”

    April’s House from “Glee”

    ‘ As I have mentioned countless times before, I am absolutely, irrevocably, one hundred percent obsessed with the television show Glee.  So obsessed that I’ve been watching my “Road to Sectionals” DVDs over and over and over again to bide my time until the series returns from its absurdly long hiatus on April 13th –…
