Melting Pot: The Urban Legendary Cecil Hotel

This episode is not at all what we intended to cover, but the storied past that is The Cecil Hotel sucked us into a vortex that was inescapable, and so we bring you a quite convoluted ride along through the catacombs of everything from urban legends loosely bond to this hotel, to the agonizing death toll it has racked up. 

This is just a very brief look at the hotel as a whole and all the stories it has produced. We touch on the history of Skid Row and the epidemic of the unhomed in Los Angeles, the Cecil in its prime and its fall from grace in present day, alleged hauntings, serial killers, and of course, the arm chair detective theories. 

It would not be a complete story without including a lose thread tying speculatively to what we originally intended to cover, urban legends. Either unknowingly creating some or conspiring commonalities to old tales, The Cecil hotel is without a doubt a melting pot for all of these thoughts.
