Join us on our LA Noir Ghost Tour in Downtown LA, where we probe into the dark side of the city, accompanied by drinks at two supposedly haunted bars.

We commence our journey at the Biltmore Hotel, known to be the last spot where the Black Dahlia was seen. We then make a halt at Clifton’s, revealing the unsung secretive side of its Christian founder who led the fight against corruption. Following that is Hotel Cecil, notorious for its horrific history of homicides, suicides and notorious residents like the ‘Night Stalker’. Later, we head to the once luxurious Alexandria Hotel, believed to be still frequented by the spirit of Rudolph Valentino in his former penthouse. From there, the trail leads us to the Barclay Hotel, which has been the dwelling of two serial murderers and has witnessed some savage homicides. Near the end, we visit the site where the Chinatown Massacre of 1871 unfolded. The tour concludes at the ‘Halls of Justice’, the location of numerous trials that includes Benjamin “Bugsy” Siegel and Charles Manson.
