Plot:
In 1939, in Los Angeles, four guests of a party and the elevator operator disappear on the eleventh floor of the Hollywood Tower Hotel in the Halloween night. Sixty years later, the journalist Buzzy Crocker writes sensationalist stories for the tabloid The National Inquisitor after being fired from the Los Angeles Banner for writing fake news. His former girlfriend Jill Perry is the Banner's editor, but Buzzy fell in disgrace and now produces fake news using his teenage niece Anna to help him. When the elderly Abigail Gregory visits Buzzy at home, she tells an amazing story to him about the mysterious disappearance of the five people: the actor Gilbert London, his girlfriend and singer Carolyn Crosson, a.k.a. Claire Poulet, the child star Sally Shine, her nanny Emeline Partridge and the operator Dewey Todd. Abigail says that Emeline was a witch that hated Sally and put a spell on the girl, trapping the ghosts in the hotel. She would need a book of spells and belongings of the five people in the elevator to revert the curse. Buzzy and Anna meet the present hotel owner and mechanic Chris 'Q' Todd, who is Dewey's grandson and is afraid of the haunted hotel. Soon Buzzy and Anna encounter the ghosts and together with the skeptical Jill, they learn the true story of the curse.
