“enter the sacred domain to-night without fear” [SHOS]     When the #FreeSherlock movement began a decade ago, there were 50 of the original 60 Sherlock Holmes stories in the public domain in the United States. And now, when January 1, 2023 rolls around, "The Veiled Lodger" and "Shoscombe Old Place" will be the final two stories no longer under copyright. To mark this occasion and the final episode of Season 16 of I Hear of Sherlock Everywhere, we invited Leslie Klinger, BSI ("The Abbey Grange"), Betsy Rosenblatt, BSI ("Lucy Ferrier"), and Ashely Polasek, BSI ("Singlestick") back to the show to talk with us about it from the perspective of one who has sued the Conan Doyle Estate, an intellectual property lawyer, and an adaptation studies scholar, respectively.

George Noory and author Leslie Klinger discuss the 19th century century novel "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde" by Robert Lewis Stevenson, the true meaning of the story about split personalities, and why it has remained relevant in popular culture like plays and movies nearly one hundred fifty years after it was first written.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There's no question that The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is one of the most influential texts of all time. The now-iconic tale, which has confounded and thrilled readers for more than a century, was described by one scholar as the only detective-crime story in which the solution is more terrifying than the problem. And even as its plot gets continually reinterpreted and reimagined in literature, film, and theater, the main themes persist, as do the titular characters, now so familiar as to have become a part of the English language.This new edition gives the classic tale of depraved murder and unrelenting horror its most complete and illuminating presentation yet. Heavily illustrated with over a hundred and fifty full color images from the history of this cultural touchstone—including reproductions of rare books, film stills, theatrical posters, and the true-life people associated with the adventure—and extensively annotated by Edgar Award winning editor and noted Victorian literature expert Leslie S. Klinger, this thorough and authoritative approach is both an invaluable resource for scholars and a sumptuous treat for fans of the text.Introduced by a compelling and erudite essay from bestselling novelist and short story writer Joe Hill, this complete illustrated and annotated edition of The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde is the ultimate tribute to an enduring classic, combining revelatory and surprising information and in-depth historical context with beautiful illustrations and photographs. It is sure to please anyone interested in the Victorian era, mystery fiction, and horror tales.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

Waiting for Cthulhu: Existential perspectives on the work of H. P. Lovecraft and Other Cosmic Horror Authors As a philosophical and literary criticism tradition, Existentialism would seem to be a perfect lens for examining the concerns of Cosmic Horror: The angst and crisis of meaning and authenticity that one confronts when experiencing the impossible vastness of an indifferent cosmos. The absurdity of existence. The impossibility of comprehension and understanding tied to a need to find meaning and identity. Our panelists explore the main concerns of Existential philosophy and analyze their presence in the work of Lovecraft and other classic cosmic horror authors.

Todays Guest is Sue Aikins.  Sue the sole resident of the Kavik river camp in Northern Alaska. The camp is located directly adjacent to the Kavik River, 197 miles North of the Arctic Circle. Her motto is "If it hurts, don't think about it. She is the star of a TV show called Life Below Zero  which is a documentary television series which illustrates the daily and seasonal activities of subsistence hunters as they make their living in remote areas of Alaska. Produced by BBC Worldwide, the show airs on National Geographic. The show follows people who live in the remote areas of Alaska, trying to survive in the below-zero conditions, demonstrating their everyday struggles as they hunt and depend only on themselves and survive using the resources they have. With all of the isolation, you’d think the scariest things Sue has to worry about are weather conditions, ample food and water and wild animals…but what about ghosts and the paranormal?? Turns out there are plenty of paranormal things going on in Alaska as well, and she is going to tell us all about it!  http://www.kavikrivercamp.com   Ghost Magnet Facebook Group:  https://www.facebook.com/Ghost-Magnet-with-Bridget-Marquardt-2480154975336666/   Bridget Marquardt Bridget Marquardt is best known to television audiences and pop-culture connoisseurs as the sweet and brainy star of E!

Todays guest is Dustin Pari. Being on television as a paranormal investigator happened quite by accident, but there is something to be said for accidents being best described as when hard work meets opportunity. Several seasons and years of his life later, Dustin had traveled the world like a “Paranormal Rockstar”, a moniker given to him during an interview, which was then used from that point forward since it symbolized much of who he was.   Regardless of whatever you may call him, or he may call himself, Dustin may be best known as a paranormal researcher and lecturer due to his numerous appearances on such television programs as Ghost Hunters, Ghost Hunters International, and Destination Truth.  He has journeyed up and down the road time and time again appearing here, there, and everywhere. Though a well-respected and highly regarded staple of the paranormal event and lecture circuit, Dustin also delivers his entertaining and educational paranormal presentations to colleges and libraries across America. http://www.dustinpari.com Ghost Magnet Facebook Group:  https://www.facebook.com/Ghost-Magnet-with-Bridget-Marquardt-2480154975336666/   Bridget Marquardt Bridget Marquardt is best known to television audiences and pop-culture connoisseurs as the sweet and brainy star of E!

Hey Everyone! It’s Bridget Marquardt here with a brand new episode of Ghost Magnet! Today’s guest Barri Ghai is a professional paranormal investigator and TV presenter with over 15 years experience. He first became interested in the existence of ghosts from a very early age after personally experiencing supernatural activity. He’s now the star of a hit ghost hunting show in the UK, is married to a witch and and they have 7 girls! Much to unpack on this week’s episode of Ghost Magnet.  Barri founded the Ghostfinder Paranormal Society in early 2006 with the intention of helping more people understand and find answers to the paranormal, by attempting to gather tangible evidence. Although many of his childhood experiences were horrific and can only be described as demonic attacks, he still developed a keen interest for ghosts and the paranormal. As a teenager, Barri began his own research looking into famous hauntings and documented cases. He eventually started carrying out his own investigations of local cemeteries and famous landmarks to try and document his experiences and gather evidence. During the course of his childhood, Barri reports to have seen at least four separate entities, and encountered something evil that has continued to make its occasional presence known to him and his family almost thirty years on.  During his final year at University, Barri saw a young female apparition in his bedroom, which he believes helped focus his interest further and ultimately led to plans to create The Ghostfinder Paranormal Society (GPS). Since establishing GPS, he has experienced many things which he believes defy logic and scientific reasoning. His personal belief in ghosts, and other supernatural phenomena has fuelled his commitment to one day proving, through the use of science and technology, that ghosts do really exist. Barri regularly features on television, radio, and in magazines worldwide. He has appeared in many successful TV shows some of which include; Celebrity Haunted Hotel Mansion Live, Celebrity Haunted Hotel Live, My Ghost Story, Ghost Adventures,  Paranormal Investigation: Live and 'Help My house is Haunted’.  Barri is considered one of the UK's leading paranormal investigators and works with some of the best in the field. @barri_ghai www.barrighai.com   Ghost Magnet Facebook Group:  https://www.facebook.com/Ghost-Magnet-with-Bridget-Marquardt-2480154975336666/   Bridget Marquardt Bridget Marquardt is best known to television audiences and pop-culture connoisseurs as the sweet and brainy star of E!

Todays guest is Andrea Perron she is the eldest daughter of Roger & Carolyn Perron. Her parents and her four sisters: Nancy, Christine, Cynthia and April are the real family from the Conjuring movie.   In June of 1970 her mom found the farm, then known as the old Arnold Estate; two-hundred acres of land with a big barn and a farmhouse; plenty of space to spread out and explore Nature. It was the perfect place to raise a family, according to the owner, though he failed to disclose a crucial element of the experience he endured as an occupant.    For almost a decade the family lived among the dead. There they came to understand that we are not alone and there is something beyond mortal existence.   In 2007 Andrea began writing a manuscript which has now evolved into the trilogy “House of Darkness House of Light” a book about what her and her family went through.   She says writing the book has proved to be quite an excursion in its own right, spawning some nightmares while exhuming the memories of the dead. Often painful, it has been a healing process as well. There was no escaping unscathed, though they thought they had successfully done so at the time.    She says, Many have spoken or written about fragments of the story for decades. Now is the time to tell the whole truth about what happened in the house.  It is a tale worth telling because it is true. Time has come because we are ready to disclose our secrets and the world is ready to receive them.   And, I can’t wait to hear the story directly from her!   Ghost Magnet Facebook Group:  https://www.facebook.com/Ghost-Magnet-with-Bridget-Marquardt-2480154975336666/   Bridget Marquardt Bridget Marquardt is best known to television audiences and pop-culture connoisseurs as the sweet and brainy star of E!

Thank you so much for listening and welcome back!! This weeks guest is Linda the Ghost Hunter.   When she was very young, she realized that she had the gift to be able to sense and communicate with spirits. At first, this was unnerving, but in time, she realized that most spirits are not here to do harm. Often times, they simply wanted to observe and communicate with the world that they no longer are a part of. In the years since, she has expanded her knowledge of, and experience with, the paranormal. She has been brought into people's homes and businesses to help figure out experiences they've had that they don't understand or can't explain. She have been featured on several television shows and worked as a paranormal expert for TV and films.   She started this ghost hunting tour to bring the ghost hunting experience to more people.

Looking for a distraction during trying times? Please enjoy the interview we did Ghost Hunter’s own Richel Stratton. I can’t tell you how excited we are to see the new episodes on A&E starting April 8th.   Over the past few weeks Bridget has gotten unique access to “Ghost Hunters” ahead of their season premier. We’ve had Brandon Alvis, Brian Murray and now Richel Stratton tells her story.  Paranormal investigator Richel Stratton has been ghost hunting for a decade, with most of her investigations conducted independently. She joined her most recent team in Illinois two years ago and has participated in over 40 investigations with the group ranging from private residences to historic haunted locations like the once-spectacular Mineral Springs Hotel, former psychiatric hospital Ashmore Estates, and the storied Malvern Manor. As an investigator, Richel believes there are things out there we don’t fully understand, but she needs hard evidence to prove a haunting is real. When she isn’t investigating, Richel is a dental hygienist and mom to two young boys. https://www.aetv.com/shows/ghost-hunters https://www.instagram.com/strattonrichel/ Ghost Magnet Facebook Group:  https://www.facebook.com/Ghost-Magnet-with-Bridget-Marquardt-2480154975336666/ Bridget Marquardt Bridget Marquardt is best known to television audiences and pop-culture connoisseurs as the sweet and brainy star of E!

The new season of Ghost Hunters starts April 8th and we at Ghost Magnet cannot wait! They say it’s all new locations and they have more proof than ever! Join Bridget Marquardt as she tries to pry loose the paranormal secrets from Ghost Hunters Brian Murray as they discuss his love of the paranormal and scariest cases ever! Former Marine Corps Platoon Sergeant Brian Murray is a paranormal investigator on the “Ghost Hunters” team. Brian uses his military experience to bring an organized, structured approach to each investigation, from creating a plan and assigning tasks to overseeing “the mission” from start to finish. Brian founded his most recent team, Riverbend Paranormal, in 2007 and has conducted more than 200 investigations, many of them in private homes. Because of his day job in construction, Brian has solid knowledge of foundations, buildings and plumbing, allowing him to quickly assess and debunk structural situations that a homeowner might believe to be supernatural.

Photographer Shannon Taggart became aware of spiritualism as a teenager when her cousin received a message from a medium that revealed details about her grandfather's death. In 2001, while working as a photojournalist, she began photographing where that message was received―Lily Dale, New York, home to the world's largest spiritualist community.  Taggart expected to spend one summer figuring out the tricks of the spiritualist trade. Instead, spiritualism’s mysterious processes, earnest practitioners and neglected photographic history became an inspiration. Her project evolved into an 18-year journey that has taken her around the world in search of “ectoplasm”― the elusive substance that is said to be both spiritual and material. Shannon is drawn to what she calls “psychological spaces.” She describes these as “invisible realities, like an interior experience you can’t really see,” and relishes the challenge of making visuals to describe them. Taggart says she values photography’s ability to open up new worlds, and she hopes readers of her new book will be transported while they explore the strange realm within it. Her book is titled, Séance, and Taggart offers a series of haunting photographs exploring spiritualist practices in the US, England and Europe. Supported with a commentary on her experiences, a foreword by Dan Aykroyd, creator of Ghostbusters and fourth-generation spiritualist, and illustrated essays from Andreas Fischer and Tony Oursler, Séance examines spiritualism’s relationship with human celebrity and its connections with technology, and concludes with the debate over ectoplasm and how spiritualism can move forward in the 21st century.  Stay connected @bridgetmarquardt, @ghost_magnet_podcast www.shannontaggart.com Ghost Magnet Facebook Group:  https://www.facebook.com/Ghost-Magnet-with-Bridget-Marquardt-2480154975336666/ Bridget Marquardt Bridget Marquardt is best known to television audiences and pop-culture connoisseurs as the sweet and brainy star of E!

Before George Romero died, he had been working on a brand new zombie novel titled THE LIVING DEAD ( https://amzn.to/2RR7PKM ). He didn't get to finish it, but happily, author Daniel Kraus has done so, with the approval of the Romero Estate, and Daniel is our guest this episode. Daniel has also co-authored books with Guillermo del Toro: TROLLHUNTERS and THE SHAPE OF WATER. One of the questions I asked Daniel Kraus was: "If someone were to come up to you and say, 'Daniel, this looks great, but I'm just sick of zombies, even though it's George Romero', what would you say?" Daniel's beautiful response was: "I know that question because I would have said the same thing... I would say we don't need another zombie book, EXCEPT this one. And the reason is, is that this one is the END. It is the capstone on the guy who started it all. This is his final word on the topic... this concludes the story."

What if the object of your curiosity in that creepy, old antique store comes with its own haunted past? A victorian oil lamp? Letters from a haunted asylum? A shelf that mysteriously crashes? Meet Christian Marcus whose collection of quirky curios can be found at his shop Diehl Marcus & Co. or on the walls and halls of some of Los Angele's hippest bars and nightclubs.  Christian Marcus has worked in the field of interior and set design for over 25 years, in theater, film, theme park, and commercial design. He co owns Diehl Marcus and Co. with his wife Erika. Part shop, part event space, this antique specialty shop was created by the couple in the Edwardian style. The building dates back to 1924 and has been variously a photo studio, silent film producers office, and tailoring shop. Several guests have remarked on sensing the presence of a young woman in the back section. Christian, who hails from Salem, MA has had several odd experiences while working at the shop, from swinging chandeliers, to bells that ring of their own accord. A seance held in the space resulted in items crashing off a shelf.   Stay connected @bridgetmarquardt, @ghost_magnet_podcast @diehlmarcus https://diehlmarcus.com   Ghost Magnet Facebook Group:  https://www.facebook.com/Ghost-Magnet-with-Bridget-Marquardt-2480154975336666/   Bridget Marquardt Bridget Marquardt is best known to television audiences and pop-culture connoisseurs as the sweet and brainy star of E!

Dr. Barry E. Taff holds a doctorate in psychophysiology with a minor in biomedical engineering, and is a world-renowned parapsychologist who worked out of UCLA’s former Parapsychology Laboratory from 1969 through 1978 as a research associate.  During his four-decade career, Dr. Taff has investigated more than 4,500 cases of ghosts, hauntings, poltergeists and conducted extensive studies in telepathy and precognition, eventually developing the initial protocols and methodologies for what was later termed “remote viewing”.  He also, was himself, investigated as a psychic subject, the results of which were published in Behavioral Neuropsychiatry, “A Laboratory Investigation of Telepathy: The Study of A Psychic”, Vol. 6, Nos. 1-12, April-December 1974-January-March, 1975.   One of the cases Dr. Taff investigated in 1974 gained international fame as the book and motion picture, The Entity, starring Barbara Hershey and Ron Silver, released by Fox in 1983.  Dr. Taff served as technical advisor on The Entity as well as being represented in the film by the character “Gene Kraft”. What’s unknown by the media is the fact that, in real life, The Entity followed its female victim for quite some time after our initial investigation, continuing its vociferous nature. Allegedly, Doris Bither died in 1999 of cardiopulmonary failure at the age of 58.   He has consulted for government, business, and law enforcement, including the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), Office of Naval Intelligence (ONI), National Security Agency (NSA), Defense Language Institute (DLI), Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the FBI, Interpol, LAPD, California Highway Patrol, Santa Barbara Sheriff’s Department, and the Westminster Police Department. He has served as a technical advisor or script doctor on the films Logan’s Run, Demon Seed, Altered States, Poltergeist, and The Entity.  Dr. Taff has written numerous articles for magazines and journals, and has been featured in many books on paranormal subjects ranging from precognition to UFOs.   Stay connected @bridgetmarquardt, @ghost_magnet_podcast   Ghost Magnet Facebook Group:  https://www.facebook.com/Ghost-Magnet-with-Bridget-Marquardt-2480154975336666/   Bridget Marquardt Bridget Marquardt is best known to television audiences and pop-culture connoisseurs as the sweet and brainy star of E!

After over a decade of supernatural experiences that still baffle him to this day, Sean continues to search passionately for evidence of the unexplained. Sean was a featured investigator on the pilot series "The Demon Files", which aired on the Destination America Network. As part of a team headed by the well known Denomologist and retired NYPD Seargent Ralph Sarchie, who became the inspiration for the movie "Deliver us from evil", Sean was mentored in the field of Demonology. Ralph taught Sean how to approach cases of the demonic in the extreme recesses of the paranormal. It was while jumping head first into this new realm of the supernatural, Sean had also developed his natural psychic and mediumship abilities and applied them to his new journey into the paranormal. "It is great to be your own piece of equipment while investigating with the  other types of technologically advanced devices we have today to provide evidence". In his first published work "Shadow Chaser", Sean follows the pursuit into the unexplained that he started from the beginning.  Along with Sean's years of experience as a musician,  he has trained his ears to aid in his investigations. "Experiencing a new tier of mystery on every investigation is a privilege that is beyond humbling. Implementing these experiences and ultimately helping people with their spiritual needs is humbling and allows me to share these experiences with the world". Now, in the Travel Channel's TV series "Ghost Loop", Sean is the lead investigator of a team with a mission to assist people dealing with a diversity of hauntings, including helping trapped souls who may be reaching out from the other side. @seandaustin https://seandaustin.com

Welcome to the final Ghost Magnet of 2019 and — oh my — this is a good one! Join Bridget and her new BFFs Tammie and Brice as they talk about the spooky things they have in common! From New Orleans and the Myrtles Plantation, to California and David Oman’s House, The Glen Tavern Inn, The Chaplin Studios and more. THEN be on the lookout for the CRAZY video we shot in our post-podcast investigation!  Tammie Merheb-Chavez is a New Orleans native who moved to Los Angeles in 2009. She’s a full-time costume designer for film, tv and theater and part-time paranormal investigator with a coffee addiction living happily with her hubby here in El Lay. Her introduction to the paranormal started at a very young age while living around the legends and lores that surrounded her home city, New Orleans. It soon evolved more while working in a few haunted theaters and movie sets. When she is not working you might find her investigating haunted places,  obsessing over pet-finder, binge-watching paranormal shows and scaring Brice with creepy stories. Brice Mitchell Williams was raised in various states around the Midwest and moved to Los Angeles in 2011. He was raised in a conservative, Christian community and as such, never really believed in any kind of paranormal activity. However, as he grew up, several inexplicable life experiences have left him more open to the world as we know it. Whether the paranormal can be attributed to Demons, Ghosts, Spirits, Energy, or some other phenomena, he remains optimistically skeptical and loves being proven wrong and discovering new perspectives in this crazy genre! When he isn’t podcasting, he is most likely Instragram-ing photos of his dog, drinking illegal amounts of coffee, or doing CrossFit, poorly.

For fans of The X-Files do we have a treat for you! Meet Dean Haglund, actor, comedian, inventor AND a downtown Los Angeles theater district aficionado! Prior to the show Dean took us on one of his signature tours from VERY SCARY ghost of the Hotel Cecil, The Bradbury, the Hotel Alexandria and many of DTLA’s varied theaters. In this episode Dean takes us on a deep dive of the creepy Los Angeles. Dean fell in love with the renaissance happening in DTLA. He has given tours for the Historic Theater Association and the LA Conservancy. He has lead tours highlighting Hollywood history, silent film locations and vaudeville legend & lore!  He spent the last few fears between LA and Australia, but now he’s shutting between Michigan and his LA lair.  In this episode we are recording from the historic Eastern Columbia Building, also known as the Eastern Columbia Lofts, it is a thirteen story Art Deco building. The Eastern Columbia Building is built of steel-reinforced concrete and clad in glossy turquoise terra cotta trimmed with deep blue and gold trim. The façade is decorated with a wealth of motifs—sunburst patterns, geometric shapes, zigzags, chevrons and stylized animal and plant forms. The building is capped with a four-sided clock tower emblazoned with the name "Eastern" in neon. When driving in or near downtown LA the building can’t be missed!  It opened on September 12, 1930 after just nine months of construction. It was built at a cost of $1.25 million as the new headquarters and 39th store for the Eastern-Columbia Department Store.  The building is widely considered the greatest surviving example of Art Deco architecture in the city. In 1985, it was listed as a historical cultural monument.  In 2006, the building was renovated into 147 condos and it is said the Johnny Depp owns 5 penthouses! But…is it haunted???

Bridget’s back from the Bermuda Triangle and ready for more! Join Bridget and Ghost Hunter’s tech master of Brandon Alvis as they explore explore The Glen Tavern Inn…The Stanley Hotel’s mini me.  Brandon has always had interests and questions about the paranormal.  Over the years he has spoken at historical locations across the United States. Appearing in the New York Post, MTV News, Travel Channel, Discovery and Science Channel. After purchasing a modest camcorder in 2010, Brandon began to produce web content about historical events. Discovering his newly found passion, he wanted to expand his knowledge of the film industry. You have seen him on Ghost Hunters, Ghost Adventures, The Unexplained Files and Haunted Discoveries. Starting with a few friends using standard tools and procedures, he realized the many mistakes "commonly found" when investigating the paranormal. This motivated him to propagate a team specializing in many fields and to develop new methods not only reliable but convincing, introducing the "scientific approach" and naming this team: "American Paranormal Research Association" aka A.P.R.A. This new approach along with his leadership and entrepreneurial skills has propelled A.P.R.A., becoming a highly recognized name. His hard work, dedication and passion to this science are greatly respected, often allowing A.P.R.A. to investigate in areas normally closed-off to others. Pioneering fundraisers and special events, he along with his team, provide participants an insight into the paranormal wherein proceeds go to the preservation of the historical structure. His determination to find "cold hard facts, to prove or disprove" makes A.P.R.A. what it is today.  Today we have a super fun episode, we are recording LIVE from the super cute and charming Glen Tavern Inn in Santa Paula, Ca. But don’t let looks deceive you, this historic little inn has a history of paranormal activity and ghost stories!    About The Glen Tavern Inn It is a tutor/craftsman style hotel built in 1911. During Prohibition, the Inn retained something of its Wild West origins as the third floor - at that time, an open space not yet built out into separate guestrooms - was utilized as a speakeasy, brothel and gambling parlor.[2] Many legends stem from this era, including tales of murdered prostitutes and shootouts between unruly gamblers. These stories, though mostly unconfirmed, persist with a life of their own as part of the hotel's rich lore. In the 1930’s, the Glen Tavern Inn hosted such notables as Carole Lombard, John Wayne, Houdini and canine thespian, Rin Tin Tin, who boasted his own suite long before “pet-friendly” entered the hospitality lexicon. It became dilapidated and rundown before it was rescued and renovated back to it’s original grandeur. The Inns’ motto, is “Where the past comes to life”..and that seems to be a good motto, because the hotel has it’s share of stories! So much so that the Ventura Paranormal Society had its annual convention there and it has been featured on Ghost Adventures and Dead Files.  Brandon Alvis on Instagram @brandonalvis   Ghost Magnet Facebook Group:  https://www.facebook.com/Ghost-Magnet-with-Bridget-Marquardt-2480154975336666/   Bridget Marquardt Bridget Marquardt is best known to television audiences and pop-culture connoisseurs as the sweet and brainy star of E!

This week we are LIVE from Madame Tussauds Wax Museum in Hollywood (#tussaudsla)! There have been many reports of this busy tourist attraction being haunted! So, of course, the first thing I wanted to do was to come here after the attraction was closed, hear all of the spooky ghost stories from the manager and the staff, some history on the location from Lisa Morton and then do a little late night investigation of our own!  And, Guess what?!?! You get join us!   Do these wax figures come to life at night or are they so lifelike that it just feels like it? What’s the history of the building did something horrific go down here in the past? What about the history of the museum itself…how did this come to be? What about Madame Tussaud, who was she and what inspired her to create these lifelike replicas? Or is it the area? Hollywood has a very seedy and mysterious past…we are going to be discussing all of these questions and more!  Madam Tussauds is a 3 story museum with 125 celebrity figures in display.  Our guest today is Helen Larimore, the marketing manager of the museum.  She is originally from Chicago and since she was a child she has been obsessed with all things bizarre and strange.  She has been at Madame Tussauds for 2 years now and she says working within the walls of the Wax Museum is a perfect fir for her.  Her proudest accomplishment was creating a horror themed room for the attraction that covers many classics from yesterday and today.  Like Bela Lugosi as Dracula and IT SET.   She says she has always had a bit of a 6th sense her entire life and working at the museum has sparked her 6th sense on several occasions.
