DEAD IN HOLLYWOOD |
https://deadinhollywood.com Created by Castroburger “Dead in Hollywood” is a true crime zine documenting strange and tragic Hollywood deaths. Castroburger’s been fascinated with the dark side of Hollywood and the cult of celebrity since he was a kid reading back in Texas reading the Manson book “Helter Skelter.” When Castroburger grew up he moved to L.A. He didn’t know anyone. He found myself reading books about Marilyn Monroe’s death and Sharon Tate’s murder at their grave sites. What better place to read up on your idols? Years later Castroburger was giving his friends “Hollywood death tours” around L.A. to the actual locations where these stars lived and died. It wasn’t until recently that Castroburger discovered his love for zine making. The name ‘zine’ comes from the abbreviation of the punk-era ‘fanzine’ - itself a corruption of ‘magazine’ which itself dates from post-war Hollywood. Within this medium Castroburger was able to turn his obsession into something creative and informative. He is currently working on issue #7. Each issue centers on a Hollywood star cut-down in their prime with their real contributions often forgotten. CONTACT CASTROBURGER @ thehellfirepress@gmail.com ![]() ![]() | ![]() |
