Haunted Hotel: Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood, California

By Charlyn Keating Chisholm, About.com

The Bottom Line:
Some say the Hollywood elite who stayed at this hotel left a bit of themselves behind. Located on Hollywood Boulevard across the street from the Chinese Theater, the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel was a focal point for the movie business in the 1920s and 1920s.
The Story:
Ask for Room 928, where Montgomery Clift stayed during the making of "From Here to Eternity." Rumor has it you can still hear Montgomery Clift play his bugle.

Cabana 246 is where Marilyn Monroe lived on and off. Her personal mirror is in the lobby of the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel, where some say they still see her image gazing back from time to time.
