A heavy Victorian door purchased from a salvage yard in North Hollywood to complete a new seance parlor. But as soon as the door was installed, the atmosphere of the shop changed.Staff and customers began reporting the same thing: the sound of a little girl giggling and a figure in a white dress playing "peek-a-boo" through construction barriers.
