Episode 94 - The Mysterious Death of Elisa Lam

Wicked Within

The Cecil Hotel has been sitting in the heart of Los Angeles, California since 1924. Located at 640 S. Main Street, the Cecil Hotel started as a luxury destination for wealthy businessmen, but the hotel was hit hard during the Great Depression and never truly recovered. Throughout its 99 year history, the Cecil has seen over 16 deaths due to murder or suicide. It also served as a temporary home for two notorious serial killers (Richard Ramirez AKA The Night Stalker and Jack Unterweger AKA The Vienna Strangler), and the last known sighting of Elizabeth Short, the Black Dahlia, was at the hotel’s bar, but those old stories had faded into obscurity for many people until 2013, when 21-year-old Elisa Lam went missing while staying at the Cecil Hotel.
