Gothamist learned about the craziest urban nightmare come true: A huge python found in the bathroom pipes. It was also a nightmare for some Yankees fans, as manger Joe Torre declined to come back and manage the Bronx Bombers. At least the city's attempt to give some direction to subway riders was interesting, pranksters went shirtless at the Fifth Avenue Abercrombie & Fitch and the I Heart Brooklyn Girls calendars came out. And just......

Hollywood Hellhouse (you know, witness an aboration, be in a school shooting, etc, see the report from earlier today) was amazing. Check out some of the pics, then go see for yourself: My first tour guide, Pastor Ed My second tour guide -- I thought she was a mannequin when I first walked in but she sprang to life More photos after the jump.........

Jessica got rufied and gang-raped. A Harry Potter-loving nerd beat up his sister then killed himself. And a deranged student fired off a semi-automatic weapon into the cafeteria of a high school. Yes, it was a busy day in hell, as told by the cast of Hollywood Hellhouse. But it was all in a day’s work. Created by Maggie Rowe, Hollywood Hellhouse is a spoof of Christian-themed haunted houses that are put on by......

BOO-ya! There's still time to check out some Halloween events, including the Hollywood Hell House and Bordello's Voodoo Vixens Burlesque show tonight at 10p. This accident on the 5 may tie up traffic until tomorrow: authorities are still counting only 3 casualties, but who knows how drivers will react to the construction and clean-up now taking place. First the water, then the power, now the phones? Mayor Villaraigosa is proposing a 9-percent phone tax.......

There will also be three haunted houses and a Fall Festival. Rosemary's Billygoat plays at 9pm. The CIA (California Institute of Abnormal Arts) in North Hollywood's Fright Night......

This weekend, LAist went to Hell and back. Yes, we finally made it to Hollywood Hell House, and our wicked little souls thank them. If you're still not familiar with the concept, basically, Hell Houses have become something of a fundamentalist Christian Halloween tradition. They’ve sprung up all over the Bible Belt as an alternative to haunted houses, but instead of skeletons and ghosts, they're full of homosexuals and abortion patients, and the "scary"......

We know where we're going this Saturday—straight to Hell! And we couldn't be more excited. Every Saturday from now through Halloween, the Steve Allen Theater in Hollywood presents "Hollywood Hell House." Hell Houses have become a staple of the Halloween season for Christian kids across the country over the last few years, and now LA has one of its very own. Of course, ours is full of snarky comedians like Bill Maher, Sarah Silverman,......
