'Scary City' to haunt the Internet 'LonelyGirl15' producer to launch online mystery

Yumiko Aoyagi, an exec producer on "LonelyGirl15," is getting ready to launch online mystery "The Scary City" as a big-budget follow-up to the popular Web series.

The $5.2 million project, which bows Sept. 15, will involve a storyline that spans several countries.

The U.S. version of the story revolves around a haunted Los Angeles apartment complex and the missing 10-year-old daughter of an architect who battles the building's unseen evil forces. Tenants from all over the world get caught up in the global intrigue.

UPDATE 1: Amanda Goodfried commented: "Hey everyone, Yumiko worked for us for a few weeks a year ago. EQAL has nothing to do with this project."

  4. I could be wrong but I think Yumiko Aoyagi is a former lg15 producer. If this was an EQAL show, EQAL would probably be mention.

  8. Blog authors, please note:

    It's generally frowned upon to copy an entire article from another source onto this (or other) blogs. The reasons for this are many, but basically, it takes hits away from the originator of the content, as well as potential ad revenue, etc.

    The standard approach is to copy a quotation or two, and provide a link to the full original article. This actually drives traffic to the source, and generally avoids copyright infringement.

    I am modifying this article to comply with this approach, but I didn't want to do that without explaining the reason for the editing... nothing is lost as the full original article is still available by following the link.

    This is definitely an interesting news item, so thanks for posting it!
