In the 1940s, cities like Los Angeles were deceivingly glamorous. Sure, there was sunshine, shoreline, and nightlife,

but that was just what people saw on the surface.

In reality, that facade was upheld by conmen, conspirators, and killers.

Hollywood explored its own seedy underbelly through a new genre called film noir,

and while these black and white crime

thrillers were mostly fiction, they drew inspiration from real life. When 22-year-old Elizabeth

Short was found murdered in Hollywood in 1947, she was dubbed the black Dahlia for her ink-black

hair and all-black clothes.

The investigation into Elizabeth's death unearthed details that were so shocking,

they seemed like a film noir movie.

The fact that they were true only made Elizabeth's death all the more horrifying.

People's lives are like a story.

There's a beginning, a middle, and an end. You don't always know which

part you're on. Sometimes the final chapter arrives far too soon, and we don't always get to know

the real ending. I'm Carter Roy, and this is Murder True Crime Stories, a crime house original.

Every Tuesday, I'll explore the story of a notorious murder or murders.
