  • California Market Center from “Cruel Intentions”

    California Market Center from “Cruel Intentions”

    For such a quintessentially “New York” movie, quite a lot of Cruel Intentions was shot in L.A., which I’m only just now discovering.  A few of the more prominent West Coast locales include the modern pad where Blaine Tuttle (Joshua Jackson) lived (it’s actually the Benton House in Brentwood), the Rosemont Estate’s ornate indoor pool…

  • Grand Central Air Terminal from “Pee-wee’s Big Adventure”

    Grand Central Air Terminal from “Pee-wee’s Big Adventure”

    While doing research for yesterday’s post (which you can read here), I came across a page on IMDB that stated that the bus station scene from Pee-wee’s Big Adventure was filmed at the Glendale Amtrak Station.  I knew from previous cyber-stalking, though, that the Pee-wee bus station scene was actually filmed a few miles north…

  • 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 to…

  • Whitey Bulger’s Former Apartment

    Whitey Bulger’s Former Apartment

    It is finally that time of year again – October 1st, the start of my Haunted Hollywood postings.  And I could not be more excited, so let’s get to it!  The October 2013 issue of Los Angeles magazine featured an absolutely enthralling article about the arrest of the infamous Boston mobster James “Whitey” Bulger.  I…

  • The Closer Duplex

    The Closer Duplex

    As I have mentioned before, I am a huge fan of TNT’s crime series The Closer.  As is my whole family, actually.  So, a few weeks ago when my mom challenged me to locate Brenda and Fritz’s duplex apartment building from the series, I accepted the challenge!  🙂  And it didn’t take me long to find it at all.…

  • A Filming Location Tour of “Schitt’s Creek”

    A Filming Location Tour of “Schitt’s Creek”

    I’m interrupting My Guide to Palm Springs to bring you a very special guest post about Schitt’s Creek’s filming locations penned by my BFF Nat.  I’ve dragged Nat out on many a stalking adventure throughout our long friendship, but it was not until she recently fell in love with the Pop TV series Schitt’s Creek…

  • Lana Clarkson’s Former House

    Lana Clarkson’s Former House

    Way back in July, Mike, from MovieShotsLA,  and I took a little stalking trip to the Venice Beach/Marina del Rey area.  Now I should explain here that stalking with Mike is an experience in and of itself.  The guy has lived in Los Angeles his entire life and has absorbed so much location information during…

  • I Heart New York!

    I Heart New York!

    Tonight I am taking the red eye to New York City, leaving behind the land of tank tops and cutoff shorts for the land of down parkas and thermal underwear. My family and I are taking our annual winter vacation to my favorite city in the world – the Big Apple! So today, before my…

  • Downtown Christmas Shopping District from “The Brady Bunch”

    Downtown Christmas Shopping District from “The Brady Bunch”

    Today’s Christmas-themed post comes, once again, courtesy of Michael, the fellow stalker who gifted us with the fabulous write-up about The Golden Spoon café from The Brady Bunch back in November. While visiting L.A. last week, Michael tracked down and stalked another BB locale, this one with a holiday slant.  After returning home to Minnesota,…

  • The Former Site of Mulholland Farm

    The Former Site of Mulholland Farm

    Another locale that fellow stalker E.J., of The Movieland Directory, mentioned in Hollywood Death and Scandal Sites was the spot where Mulholland Farm – the former home of actor Errol Flynn – once stood.  And while I knew next to nothing about Flynn at the time I read the book, the blurb caught my eye…
