When a Cursed Car Killed a Movie Star

There are some movies that seem pretty tame today, but had an electrifying demonic charge at the time of its release. I think that one of those movies was "Rebel Without a Cause" in 1955, starring James Dean. I found a book called, "Cabinet of Curiosities" by Aaron Mahnke which talks about one aspect of his cursed legacy that involves a demonic car.
