Hollywood has meant many things to many people throughout its illustrious history, but nowadays, Tinseltown is best known for the three G's-Glitz, Glamour, and Ghosts. Read about the celebrity apparitions who touch visitors at the Hollywood Wax Museum with ghostly hands; the phantom bartender at the elegant Yamashiro Restaurant who startles diners; the lively spirits at The Formosa Café who drink right along with the customers. You won't want to miss Montgomery Clift's bugle call at The Hollywood Roosevelt ; Janis Joplin's presence at the Highland Gardens Hotel; Bela Lugosi's daily visit to the famous intersection of Hollywood and Vine; and the final resting place for dozens of Hollywood luminaries at The Hollywood Forever Cemetery. There are curses and murder and mayhem aplenty, for in Hollywood the show still goes on. AUTHOR: From the time she was quite young, Marla Brooks instinctively knew that there was more to this world than the eye could see and always found the notion of ghosts and other things that go bump in the night quite fascinating. As a child, while all of her friends were reading Nancy Drew and Dr. Seuss, Marla could be found scouring the adult paranormal section of the library for books on ghosts and hauntings. These days she is an entertainment writer and author of four entertainment-related books as well as dozens of magazines articles, including several about the ghosts of Hollywood.
