Alleged hauntings

Marilyn Monroe was a resident at the Hollywood Roosevelt for two years when her modeling career took off. Her first magazine shoot was taken on the diving board on the pool which was recently removed. Monroe stayed in suite 1200 which overlooked the pool side. A mirror which once hung in her room is now in the lobby and 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. Montgomery Clift, who lived at the Roosevelt for three months at one time, is said to haunt his old room, 928. People claim to hear him playing his bugle and see him walking the hallways of the 9th floor.
The Blossom Ballroom, where the 1st Academy Awards were held, is said to have a 10 degree temperature drop "cold spot".
