2. Crane's death was an eerie occurrence in my family.

My father, whose name was Bob, bore a strong resemblance to Bob Crane. Several times when we went out to eat, people would stop by the table and ask if he was Bob Crane. Their misapprehension was no doubt supported if they heard my mother call him ‘Bob’.

The thing is, this happened several times even after Crane was killed, and it was announced publicly. Either people hadn’t gotten the news, or they thought my Dad was Crane’s ghost.
