My back yard, sorta.
It was really fun to get to walk around in what I considered to be my back yard, though I didn’t live up in the hills I’d head up from the entrance of Griffith Park. I never saw any of my friends or other people from school here so it was like going on a retreat. I heard about Peg Entwistle jumping off the ‘H.’ About James Dean filming the knife fight scene in “Rebel Without A Cause” right behind where I was standing there. I didn’t know it but the Hillside Strangler probably did some of his work right around here. By the time I moved to LA they had just replaced the deteriorated old ‘Hollywood’ sign with a brand new one. These hills have alot of stories, like we all do. But also like us, not all of them are happy.
