The 1920s and 30s were the golden age of Hollywood.

A time of glitz and glamour, where movie stars were treated like royalty.

But amidst all the glitter and fame, there was a dark side to the movie industry.

A side that often saw stars fall from grace and suffer tragic ends.

Thelma Todd was a shining star of the silver screen known for her comic chops and stunning beauty.

She was the epitome of the old Hollywood glamour, but her life was far from a fairy tale.

On the morning of December 16, 1935, Thelma was found dead in her car, parked in a garage.

The cause of her death was ruled as carbon monoxide poisoning.

But to this day, the circumstances surrounding her death remained shrouded in mystery.

Unlike the end of a movie, the story of Thelma's mysterious death was never resolved.

Was it a tragic accident or was it something more sinister?

Thelma's story is a reminder that even the brightest stars can burn out and sometimes the truth is more disturbing than fiction.

This Hollywood murder series, on foul play, contains mentions of suicide.
