Death by “H”
In 1932, down-on-her-luck actress Peg Entwistle leapt to her death from atop the “H” of the Hollywood sign. Reports of appearances to hikers of an apparition thought to resemble her, accompanied by the scent of her perfume, have endured ever since.
Morbidly Hollywood at franksreelreviews.com has an exhaustive report about her as well as two dozen other macabre deaths in and around Tinseltown.
