Last year I had a rowdier time with friends, but this year was genuinely spooky, and I don't mean fake slasher film scares.
I went to the Hollywood Museum of Death, which is so much more authentic and disturbing than what I expected. I think some people walk through too fast, but you can't do that, because there is an insane amount of detail in the place...coroner's photographs and funeral parlor matchbooks, actual fucked up letters and art made by serial killers, taxidermy provided from the private collection of Anton LeVey, and I probably shouldn't tell you everything and spoil it in case you too would like to visit. I cant fully shake it almost twelve hours.later. It's honestly almost too much to take in at once, not to mention that Hollywood has always felt haunted to me anyway. It's a weird feeling I get there, I like it but then I don't, like I can feel the history of it, Hollywood has strong vibes, and besides that it's aesthetically APPALLING....even when I lived in NoHo for a few months I felt the haunted aura. I have mixed feelings about it because it is a fascinating and seductive aura and simultaneously kind of nauseating and repellent.
Griffith Park is also spooky. It's beautiful during the day, an oasis in the city, but it is cursed land, there is a haunted picnic table where a couple was seriously randomly smashed by a tree while having sex on Halloween in 1976, and after dark its a bit creepy, and not just because I don't want to be eaten by a mountain lion. It's a "cleaner" haunt than Hollywood, though. The Hollywood feeling has deep sinister undertones of suffering, Griffith Park is more like a cozy place to stay and make friends with the place, like the aura there is strong, but not as malevolent...
The hayride was fun, and I thought it would be the highlight of my day, but actually I am more mystified by the persistent supernatural feelings I experienced for most of the day today.
I also had some pretty tasty vegan carnival food. I didn't even know that entirely plant based carnie food existed.
edit: so I did some reading about Griffith Park (I knew none of this before going there, I swear I thought I was going to "L.A.'s Central Park" for a fucking hayride)...apparently they have had problems with things like Satanic cults and animal sacrifices, as well as murder. Well, there is your aura. Of course it has an aura...and that must have been what that woman this afternoon meant when she said some people like to abandon pets in the park on purpose, because they are sadistic, she was telling me about finding Chihuahua ribs and crap like that, she said though she thought the coyotes and bob cats were eating them.
I want to go there again during the day and leave at sunset, and see if I still get the feeling. I have picked up on heavy auras in places since my teens, the most recent significant event before today being in NoHo where I felt a ridiculously strong presence, and found out that Russian guy had been bludgeoned downstairs in a drunken brawl.
I don't think I would ever go to Griffith Park at night again though. Mostly because of the actual stupid alive people not so much because of the aura. I swear it did not seem that malevolent...just spooky, like there is something else there under the curtain. I figured it was mostly innocent dead people. I mean it's.pretty obvious that downtown Hollywood has a nastier feeling because of a nastier and more intense concentration of evil. You can even see it in the tabloid lives of famous people, maybe they should start calling it Hellywood.
