Esotouric Tour's presents: HUMAN SACRIFICE: THE BLACK DAHLIA, ELISA LAM, HEIDI PLANCK & SKID ROW SLASHER CASES

April 29, 2023

Saturday, April 29, 2023

10:30 AM - 1:30 PM

Tour meets at Hill Street Patio at Grand Central Market (near Horse Thief BBQ)

Parking: Grand Central Market Garage at 308 S Hill Street

Join Esotouric’s Kim Cooper and Richard Schave; the Skid Row historians featured in “Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel,” and their special guest Joan Renner, on a true crime and cultural history walking tour that explores the terrifying intersection of real estate speculation, housing insecurity and death in Downtown Los Angeles from the 1940s to the present.

You’ll learn about the importance of newspaper reporting to 20th-century crime investigations and the role of internet communities today, hear about how previous generations slept rough in all-night movie theaters, alleys, and under bushes, how the high cost or lack of housing options make victims more vulnerable, and about property developers who bend the rules to transform low-income residency hotels and market-rate apartments into profitable blind spots where people can vanish.

The tour begins at 10:30 am sharp, with check-in time at 10 am at the Horse Thief BBQ patio outside Grand Central Market at 324 S Hill St, Los Angeles, CA 90013. Please arrive on time and proceed to the check-in table to get signed in and logged in to the smartphone slideshow. Scroll down for tour rules and recommendations.
