714. Fearlessly Failing: TRUE CRIME LA with David The Medium

TRUE CRIME LA with a PSYCHIC

Premise:

Righto, so here’s how it goes: I take David who’s a psychic and medium to notoriously haunted places or places that are big in the LA true crime world. And I don’t tell David anything! We just see what he feels then I slowly share with him the details of each location. This is our third true crime episode. So if you love this one be sure to check the others out!

Now, in this episode we visited 4 locations, a couple widely known for their dark history others may be a little less known but just as interesting. So strap in my friends and enjoy this true crime tour of LA.

Before we kick off, I do want to pop a trigger warning here, there’s 2 locations we visit where there has been suicides.

LOCATION 1: BLACK DAHLIA MURDER HOUSE

Righto, this is where its suspected that Elizabeth Short aka The Black Daliah a 22 year old Hollywood Hopeful was brutally murdered in January of 1947. Her body was cut in half and drained of all its blood and a smile had been cut into her face. The house from the outside looks really cool. It's designed by Lloyd Wright and today is valued at about 4.8 million dollars (USD).

LOCATION 2: THE CECIL HOTEL

Ok this was hands down the spookiest location, over the years there's been over 30 deaths in this one location. And you'll hear that David and I were feeling a tad uneasy for the entire recording here, its fair to say the energy is intense.

Over the years; The Cecil Hotel has been home to not one, but two notorious serial killers, yes you read that correctly, the most famous being the Night Stalker Richard Ramirez who was't caught til 1985 and he's been convicted of 13 brutal murders, but it's believed there was more.

More recently there was the tragic story of Elisa Lam who's body was found in one of the water tanks on the roof in 2013 and theres really scary foot age of her in the elevator you can find on redit and tiktok. It's sfae to say, this place had a lot of dark energy around it!

Tigger warning; this is a location where people have taken their own lives.

LOCATION 3: THE BEVERLY CENTRE

This location came as a surprise to not only David but anyone i told that we were recording here. For those of your not familiar with LA its a shopping centre. It used to be an amusement park in the 40's and lots of strange happenings have been reported.

We were able to enter this location and record from inside the Beverly Centre.

Tigger warning; this is a location where people have taken their own lives.

LOCATION 4: CULVER STUDIOS

This one is for all the Old Hollywood fans, it's beloved that the ghost of Thomas Ince can ben seen and felt at the still functioning iconic Culver Studios. The where Gone with the Wind and Raging Bull were created and filmed.

There's a couple of theories around the death of Thomas Ince and his death being a cover up. I'll let you decide.
