HOUDINI'S GHOST TRAPPED IN BASEMENT
"Harry Houdini escaped every straitjacket and pair of handcuffs put on him, but he hasn't been able to find the keys to free his ghost trapped in the basement of the Washington Mutual bank building at Sunset and Vine," begins a recently updated article from the LA Daily News reporting of the fate of the Magicians Hall of Fame. The facility has been ordered closed since late 2004 when a Los Angeles Department of Water and Power transformer blew in an underground vault, contaminating the former NBC Radio building and Home Savings bank with carcinogenic polychlorinated biphenyls, or PCBs.
