Magic Castle could vanish if deal isn't approved

The famed Magic Castle in Hollywood could undergo some major changes behind the scenes.

The owner of the building on Franklin Avenue, Randy Pitchford, has proposed a reorganization plan to the Academy of Magical Arts, the Los Angeles Times reports.

Members are voting this month on Pitchford's proposal, which gives him control over castle operations and much of the revenue. The Times reports that there appears to be broad support for the plan.

If his plan isn't accepted, the AMA will have to relocate when their lease ends on Dec. 31, 2028.
