In this chilling episode of "Anthology of Horror," our host, Spring Heeled Jack, delves deep into the haunted heart of Hollywood's cinematic crown jewel, Universal Studios. Drawing from Brian Clune's enlightening book, "Haunted Universal Studios," we're taken on a ghostly tour that reveals the studio is not only a birthplace of film legends but also a hotbed of supernatural occurrences.

Our journey begins with a melodious introduction, as Spring Heeled Jack himself breathes new life into "Hotel California" by The Eagles and "California Dreamin'" by The Mamas and the Papas, setting the stage for an exploration of the thin veil between the living and the dead in California's most iconic film studio.

As we traverse the shadowy backlot and sound stages, tales of apparitions and unexplained phenomena are unveiled. We learn of spirits that refuse to leave their beloved sets, spectral presences felt by actors and crew alike, and the eerie legacy left behind by Universal's most famous productions. The episode weaves a tapestry of historical tidbits, personal anecdotes from studio staff, and expert insights, painting a picture of a place where the magic of cinema and the mysteries of the afterlife collide.

The episode's crescendo leads us to a contemplation of why these spirits may linger, exploring the deep emotional imprints left by the creative and tumultuous lives led within the studio's confines. As we reach the end, the atmosphere is charged with a blend of nostalgia and the ineffable, leaving listeners to ponder the porous boundaries between different realms.

Closing the episode, is "Hundred Grand Baby" by Northern League, encapsulating the dreams and dramas that have played out in Universal Studios. The song serves as a fitting tribute to the aspirations, achievements, and, perhaps, the unrest of those spirits that call the studio their eternal home.

This episode of "Anthology of Horror" not only entertains but invites us to look beyond the screen, into the shadows where the stories of the past linger, waiting for their moment in the spotlight once again.
