One of the single creepiest places in Los Angeles, isn't in some desolate haunted house on the outskirts of town. It's nestled in the coveted quaint area of east-ish LA called Los Feliz. The home had been untouched for years since the murder in 1959. The Los Feliz Murder House, located at 2475 Glendower Place, has been discussed on the Ghost Town Podcast, but for a more verbal deep dive on this murder mystery, I will leave it to Curbed LA:

"The story of the murder-suicide itself is more or less the same one that has been circulating on the internet for ages: at 4:30 in the morning on December 6, 1959, cardiologist Harold Perelson struck his sleeping wife Lillian in the head with a ball-peen hammer, then left her to asphyxiate on her own blood and he went into his teenage daughter Judye's room, where he struck her in the head with the same hammer. The hit was off, though, and Judye started screaming, waking the neighbors with screams of "Don't kill me" as her father told her to "Lay still" and "Keep quiet." Judye escaped, found her mother, then ran out of the house, found a neighbor, and called the police."

Perelson commited suicide around that time using a tranquilizer/acid cocktail.
