Tour Preview: Where You’ll Go

Hollywood Roosevelt

Named after President Theodore Roosevelt, the hotel’s high-profile history is as star-studded as a Hollywood premiere, with celebs like Marilyn Monroe and Charlie Chaplin gracing its glamorous halls and leaving behind more than just autographs. But don’t let the glamor fool you—some of these A-listers never checked out, turning the Roosevelt into a hotspot for ghostly encounters and spine-tingling tales.

TCL Chinese Theatre

If the walls of the historic TCL Chinese Theatre could talk, they’d probably whisper tales of Hollywood’s golden era, from glamorous premieres to hidden speakeasy rooms where stars once partied in secret. A ghostly prankster is said to haunt the private rooms with his mischievous antics, while the ghost of a TV host gruesomely murdered in an armed robbery attack roams around the forecourt of the theater to this day, adding a touch of mystery to its star-studded legacy.

Hollywood Sign

Not many landmarks in LA are as iconic and recognizable as the Hollywood Sign. Originally erected in 1923 as a marketing stunt for a suburban housing development, the sign was only meant to last a year or two, but it has grown to be a permanent symbol of the city's glitz and glamor. Despite its fame, the sign has a dark side, haunted by the tragic spirits of an aspiring actress, Peg Entwistle, who leaped to her death in 1932, and sightings of her ghostly presence continue to haunt visitors and locals alike.

The Hauntings of Los Angeles

Behind the scenes of the city’s iconic landmarks and trendy hotspots lies a hidden world of intrigue and mystery, where the most memorable destinations harbor disturbing secrets that will leave you spellbound. In the heart of Hollywood, the iconic Roosevelt Hotel stands as a silent witness to decades of scandal and intrigue. Rumored to be haunted by the ghost of Marilyn Monroe herself, it’s said that her spirit still wanders the halls, forever searching for peace in the city where she found fame and tragedy in equal measure.

But the ghosts of Los Angeles aren’t confined to the glitzy confines of Hollywood alone. In the historic neighborhoods of downtown LA, Victorian mansions hide secrets of their own. From tragic love stories to unsolved mysteries, these architectural gems are said to be haunted by the restless spirits of their former inhabitants, who refuse to leave even in death. From the haunted halls of the Hollywood VIP Hotel to the mysterious underground tunnels beneath the city streets, there’s no shortage of spine-tingling stories waiting to be uncovered.

 

The Most Haunted Places in Los Angeles, CA

 

Every corner of Los Angeles holds stories of heartbreak, betrayal, and the unexplained. The Cecil Hotel, infamous for its dark past and the mysterious death of Elisa Lam, continues to draw curious visitors hoping to catch a spooky glimpse, while The Culver Studios harbors its own ghostly residents.

In Culver City, the Entity House adds another layer of intrigue to LA’s haunted history, and the historic Pico House, once a luxurious hotel, now echoes with the whispers of its troubled past, making it a must-visit for those seeking a taste of the otherworldly in the City of Angels. Learn more about LA’s spooky past on a heart-pounding ghost tour with LA Ghosts!
