Summary
It's officially October! Join us for the first spooky spooky Halloween special episode, where Amanda aka The Black Dahlia goes over the sordid history of the Hotel Cecil in LA. Part low budget hotel for the down and out, part murder and suicide capital of Skid Row, the Cecil also served as the temporary home of a couple of notorious serial killers. While there are a few haunted happenings reported here, the real horror seems to revolve around the tragic deaths and apparent accidents that befell multiple tenants over the decades. Did I mention that there was a dead body discovered after residents complained of a funny taste to their water? I didn't? Listen to the episode to learn more about what the heck is going on at this real life Hotel California.Be sure to subscribe/rate/review and why not go ahead and satisfy your curiosity and check out our Patreon page at https://www.patreon.com/terriblepeopledoingterriblethings.
