It is rumored that the Hollywood Roosevelt hotel at 7000 Hollywood Boulevard, Hollywood, CA is haunted by two celebrity ghosts! The staff claims that Montgomery Clift's ghost haunts the ninth floor (suite #928), where he used to pace the halls back in 1953, memorizing his lines while making "From Here to Eternity." Apparently loud noises come from the empty suite, and phones are left mysteriously off the hook.The other apparition is said to be Marilyn Monroe's ghost. Monroe's image is said to occasionally appear in a full-length mirror which used to hang in her poolside suite (the mirror is now next to the elevator on the lower level).
Marilyn Monroe stayed in Suite 229 in the Cabanas which overlooked the pool side at The Roosevelt Hotel (7000 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, Los Angeles, CA). A full-length mirror which used to hang in her poolside suite, now in storage following hotel renovations, is thought to be haunted by her spirit. A number of people also claim to have seen her ghost dancing in the ballroom of the hotel.
Marilyn Monroe's ghost alledgedly haunts the ladies room of The Hollywood Knickerbocker Apartments, a senior home at 1714 Ivar Avenue in Los Angeles, California. The Hollywood Knickerbocker Apartments was formerly the Knickerbocker Hotel -- Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio often met in the hotel bar, and they honeymooned at the hotel in January of 1954.
Once upon a time, the Knickerbocker Hotel at 1714 Ivar Avenue in Los Angeles, California, played a key role in Hollywood lore. Rudolph Valentino hung out at the hotel bar, and reportedly liked to dance the Tango there. Frances Farmer was arrested in her room at the hotel in 1943, after skipping a visit with her parole officer. Marilyn Monroe honeymooned there with Joe Dimaggio in January of 1954. Elvis Presley enjoyed staying in suite 1016. He stayed there in 1956, while shooting Love Me Tender. Other stars who lived there include Frank Sinatra, Barbara Stanwyck, Lana Turner, Mae West, Laurel & Hardy, and Cecil B. DeMille. Later, the hotel played an important part in the movie, The Graduate (1967), as the scene of Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft's first romantic encounter.
