A woman in rural Texas is tormented by mysterious gnome-like creatures called Duendes.

Some call Hollywood the city of broken dreams. But if urban legend is to be believed, it's really the land of restless souls and unforgiving curses. In this episode of the Castle of Spirits Podcast, we cast the spotlight on four true stories—the ghost of the Hollywood sign, James Dean's "Little Bastard," the haunting of Pickfair estate, and Jean Harlow's cursed home—that make the case for Tinseltown being the most supernaturally infested place in the world. We also delve into the lore surrounding the Three Men and a Baby ghost to answer the question: Did the spirit of a child really imprint itself onto celluloid for all the world to see?
