Alleged Malibu serial squatter featured in new docuseries after years of homeowner complaints

An alleged "serial squatter" accused of terrorizing Malibu residents by weaponizing California’s tenant-friendly rental laws is now being spotlighted in a new Hulu docuseries.

After years of complaints, Ellie Mae McNulty is featured in episode 2 of Hulu's new docuseries "Squatters: Get the F*** Out of My House," titled "The Paradise of Malibu."

The series recounted how McNulty, a British actress and screenwriter, allegedly charmed her way into homes, then refused to leave.

Her squatting spree allegedly included Alden Marin, an artist and stage IV cancer patient who let her stay at his home in the fall of 2021.

McNulty allegedly told Marin she only needed to crash for a few days while her own home was being finished. But the short stay stretched into a month, and the once-polite guest turned rude, demanding and increasingly hostile, according to Vanity Fair.

At Marin’s home, McNulty allegedly used his credit cards, changed the locks while he was hospitalized and flushed cloth napkins down the toilet, clogging the pipes, Vanity Fair reported. She also allegedly demanded as much as $20,000 to leave.

"She saw in my brother a kind of perfect storm," Alden’s sister, Mindy Marin, told Vanity Fair. "She has this actressy English thing about her. Super flirty. She’s just got it down—especially the men—by being this English rose."

McNulty has disputed Marin’s account, claiming he had the locks changed while her possessions were still inside the residence, according to the magazine.

At the center is California’s laws which allow guests, even those who do not pay rent, to be treated as tenants after a certain period of occupancy, making it difficult for homeowners to immediately remove unwanted houseguests.

Marin ultimately hauled McNulty to court in 2022, and a judge ordered her to vacate, according to Vanity Fair.

Marin’s sister, Mindy Marin, later uncovered more than 10 legal cases involving McNulty going back nearly two decades, with the most recent tied to residents around Point Dume, the outlet reported.

Her alleged past victims included an 80-something Santa Monica widow, a yoga teacher who said McNulty stiffed her on rent and classes, and others who claimed the accused squatter used California’s tenant protections to drag out her stays, according to Vanity Fair.
