Hollywood Forever: Cemetery to the Stars! With Special Guest Mark Masek

Ghost Magnet with Bridget Marquardt - A podcast by Co-Conspiracy Entertainment - Mondays

From Rudolph Valentino and Judy Garland to The Ramones, Chris Cornell and even Nicholas Cage? Everyone’s dying to get into Hollywood Forever Cemetery. Join #GhostMagnet Bridget Marquardt and her guest Cemetery Guide Mark Masek and get the story behind the stones on this week’s episode of Ghost Magnet.    Mark Masek combined his love of history, old Hollywood and storytelling by researching and writing about the cemeteries of Los Angeles, and the people and stories buried there.  After a career as a newspaper reporter and editor in Illinois, Mark moved to Los Angeles and started visiting cemeteries to pay his respects to the departed entertainers he enjoyed on TV and movies – but it wasn’t always easy to find them.  So Mark wrote “Hollywood Remains to be Seen: A Guide to the Movie Stars’ Final Homes,” covering 14 cemeteries in the Los Angeles area, and featuring easy-to-follow walking tours of the properties and directions for finding more than 300 TV and movie stars.  Mark has also written ebooks on the most popular cemeteries, with up-to-date information on the latest residents.  In addition to celebrities, Mark also documents the lives of lesser-known people in the “Stories Behind the Stones” section of his website, http://www.CemeteryGuide.com   Stay connected @bridgetmarquardt, @ghost_magnet_podcast   Ghost Magnet Facebook Group:  https://www.facebook.com/Ghost-Magnet-with-Bridget-Marquardt-2480154975336666/   Bridget Marquardt Bridget Marquardt is best known to television audiences and pop-culture connoisseurs as the sweet and brainy star of E!
