Black Dahlia is a PC adventure game that was released on February 28, 1998 by Take-Two Interactive.[1]

The story, while fictional, is inspired by the real life Cleveland Torso Murderer and the infamous murder of Elizabeth Short in Los Angeles. [2]

This puzzle-based FMV adventure game ties Elizabeth Short's murder to Nazis and occult rituals which the player has to investigate. The game, being an interactive movie, features Dennis Hopper and Teri Garr.[3]
