Summary

Many of Hollywood’s older hotels are much like Hollywood itself. They are aging and slightly faded, still trying to hang onto the shimmer of glamour that they enjoyed in the days gone by. Like other parts of Hollywood, a few of the hotels have seen face-lifts in recent years, which have stirred up memories and “spirits” of the past. Not all the ghostly stories, and wicked scandals, are products of recent times, however, many of them have been around for years.
