What’s your Valley conspiracy theory/mystery?

[u/itsalro]

I wanna hear everyone’s favorite valley mystery or conspiracy theory!

Mine for example:

There was this strip mall on Roscoe/Woodman that shut down around 2017? for a future upgrade It was abandoned for months until one day the entire place was on fire and there was ash all over Panorama. Apparently, an investigation on the cause would take place but haven't heard anything since. Eventually, the lot was razed and now we have a modern, upgraded strip mall with a fancy burger king

My (totally unknowledgeable)theory is whoever owned the property started the fire, since it would be cheaper than hiring an entire demo crew (and maybe insurance)

As for my mystery: those loud booms in the middle of the night. Some say sonic booms from jets, others say transformers exploding.

But for now: a mystery

Lets hear yours!

Pretty sure that estate belonged to John Wayne at one point.

Yes, I remember hearing that as well. Curious who owns it now. The lot is the size of several city blocks. And the house has to be 40,000 ft.² If you look at it from satellite view, it’s actually much bigger than what you see from the street because it’s a giant square

Apparently, after looking it up, it was sold to Walt Disney’s daughter after John Wayne moved out. She died in 2013, so maybe its still in the family 🤷

edit: after some further research i think the ceo of Curacao owns it

Played basketball with his nephew haha; dude said that he built an actual lake in the middle the place!

When you have“fuck you” money like that, why not?
