Los Angeles -- the fabled “City of Angels,” home to the rich and famous, to palm trees, sandy beaches, orange groves, and most of all, to that wonderful, almost magical place known as Hollywood. But beneath the shiny surface of glitz and glamour in America’s movie capital and behind the doors of lavish homes, luxury hotels, magnificent mansions, and storied studios, there are spirits of the dead who do not rest in peace.
The bloody history of Hollywood is filled with a myriad of scandals, sin, and gore-soaked crime and there is a haunted underbelly that revels in the dark side of the American dream. Troy Taylor will take you behind the scenes — past the glamor and the movie cameras — to reveal the stories of Hollywood’s most famous ghosts.
We’ll delve into stories like:
* Hollywood’s Most Haunted Movie Studios
* The “Fatty” Arbuckle Scandal
* The Many Haunts of Valentino
* Peg Entwhistle and the Haunted Hollywood Sign
* The Ghost of Jean Harlow’s Husband
* The Haunted Mystery of Thelma Todd’s Mysterious Death
* The Mysterious Death of “Superman”
* Marilyn Monroe’s Ghost
* And More!
It’s going to be another spine-chilling and entertaining night as we jump headfirst into some of the greatest mysteries, scandals, and spirits that Hollywood has to offer!
