When Peet Montzingo, 33, moved into his new downtown LA apartment, he had no idea one of the world’s most haunted places would be looming over him and his neighbours could be ghosts.
Hotel Cecil, often called ‘Hotel Death,’ is notorious for its dark history of murders, serial killers and unexplained deaths – the most talked about being the disappearance of Elisa Lam, whose naked dead body was later found in the hotel’s water tank in 2013.
There have been at least 16 deaths at the hotel since it opened in 1927 – as well a string of disappearances, crime and conspiracy theories, prompting a Netflix documentary in 2021.
