Peyton Place
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Peyton Place may refer to:
- Peyton Place (novel), a 1956 novel by Grace Metalious
- Peyton Place (film), a 1957 film, adapted from the novel
- Peyton Place (TV series), a nighttime soap opera which ran on ABC from 1964 to 1969, also adapted from the novel
- Many locations have been informally termed Peyton Places due to its use as a catch phrase to describe any place known for its sordid atmosphere or nefarious doings, and has subsequently been used as a synonym for a place with gossipy individuals, both of which motifs are prominent in the 1956 novel
