Itinerary

Meet your guide at Dolby Theatre — Entrance on the street level at Hollywood Boulevard.

1. 1

   Warner Pacific Theater

   This monument of cinematic history, erected by the pioneering Warner brothers, remains shrouded in an aura of mystery and fascination. Its walls whisper tales of risk, ambition, and spectral sightings of a movie mogul believed to still haunt its premises.

2. 2

   Musso & Frank's

   Hollywood's oldest restaurant, a location steeped in history since 1919. This legendary eatery, featured in Quentin Tarantino's "Once Upon a Time in Hollywood" has been the setting for countless untold stories. Some diners claim to see one of Tinseltown's most famous comedians reflection in the window, a true Hollywood photo bomb from the beyond...

3. 3

   The Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel

   Steeped in the glitz and glamour of Old Hollywood, the Roosevelt Hotel is more than just a landmark; it's a living testament to the rich tapestry of Hollywood's golden era. The inaugural Academy Awards ceremony was even held here. A few of the hauntings here include guests splashing around in the swimming pool, the swing and crack of Babe Ruth at bat, and the ghostly reflection of Marilyn Monroe.

4. 4

   TCL Chinese Theatre

   People report the eerie encounter with an elderly man, lost and confused in the courtyard. Is he a mere passerby or a spectral presence? Who is he? And discover why some say he's eternally pacing back and forth in the courtyard, seeking his killer.

5. 5

   The Vogue Theatre

   This former school was the scene of an unimaginable tragedy in the early 1900s and it turned the building into a hotbed of ghostly activity.

   And much, much more...
