    Topline:

    Los Angeles hasn't been around for THAT long, but it has its fair share of ghostly history. LAist listeners share some haunted tales.

    Why now: It's Halloween, so How to LA and "Air Talk" asked LAist listeners to share their encounters with ghosts around the city. We hear from folks in Long Beach, K-Town and Pasadena.
