Hollywood loves a good myth, but some "curses" carry a body count. This week, we’re digging into the eerie, the tragic, and the plain old bizarre urban legends haunting the silver screen.

Pop some popcorn, check your contract fine print, and let’s talk about why Tinseltown's darkest stories always seem to come back for a sequel.
