Turn off the movie and get ready to go behind the scenes, because today we’re getting a broader understanding of the murder of Poltergeist star Dominique Dunne. This episode contains graphic descriptions of domestic violence, failures of the justice system, and the fact that sometimes the things that haunt us our deeply human. My main sources for this episode our the writings of Dominique’s father Dominic Dunne for Vanity Fair, the writings of her brother Griffin Dunne, the E! true Hollywood story on her life and court testimony of those involved. This is a heavy one for me, I really struggled to record this but I think what happened to Dominique is important to talk about, it’s something that happens every day.
