Ghost stories

These are reported legends, not verified events. The creepiness score (1–5) is Spook Atlas's own editorial rating, not a measurement.

Room 928 Our creepiness rating 💀💀💀💀💀
The Los Angeles Times reported in 1990 that, according to hotel records, Montgomery Clift rented Room 928 for about three months while filming From Here to Eternity. A hotel spokeswoman said guests had complained of noise from the room at night, and each time security found it empty. Source: Los Angeles Times, 1990.
Marilyn's mirror Our creepiness rating 💀💀💀💀💀
In 2011 the Times wrote that Marilyn Monroe's reflection has often been reported in a full-length mirror from her former cabana suite, by then hung near the lower-level elevators. Accounts differ on which suite the mirror came from. Source: Los Angeles Times, 2011.
