Marilyn Monroe has been 'haunting' a famous Hollywood hotel since she died tragically at age 36

The ghost of late screen legend Marilyn Monroe is said to be haunting a Hollywood hotel.

The Some Like It Hot star - who died in 1962 at age 36 under suspicious circumstances - is believed to have spent two years living at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel in Los Angeles at the start of her career.

Now it has been claimed her spirit has returned to the building.

The costar of Tony Curtis and Clark Gable has been sighted there many times over the years, it has been suggested.

Singer Brocarde - who claims to have spotted Marilyn's ghost by the pool - said on her Instagram account in October: 'So many psychic mediums have told me that the Roosevelt Hotel is charged with paranormal energy.'

She added, 'I've heard multiple reports of psychics seeing the apparition of Marilyn over the years, but I thought seeing her was unlikely, so I was quite bemused when I did. 

'Nothing surprises me any more.'

She went on to add: 'I think realistically when you're somewhere with as much Hollywood history as the Roosevelt you are more likely to encounter the spirit of a celebrity than a human. 

'This was home to many huge stars, it's reported that Marilyn lived in the hotel for two years and the hotel hosted the first ever Oscars ceremony, so many have seen her hanging around the Blossom Ballroom...

'It's a great place to go if you want to spot the ghosts of Hollywood royalty.'

Monroe was born Norma Jeane Mortenson in Los Angeles in 1926. She spent most of her childhood in a total of twelve foster homes and an orphanage before marrying James Dougherty at age sixteen. 

She was working in a factory when she met a photographer from the First Motion Picture Unit. 

That led to a successful pin-up modeling career.

Next came her movie career that kicked off with parts in As Young as You Feel and Monkey Business, and in the dramas Clash by Night and Don't Bother to Knock. 

Then came leading roles in Niagara, Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, How to Marry a Millionaire, The Seven Year Itch, The Prince and the Showgirl, and Some Like It Hot. Her last completed film was the drama The Misfits in 1961.

She was wed to Joe DiMaggio and Arthur Miller.

On August 4, 1962, she died at age 36 of an overdose of barbiturates at her Los Angeles home. Her death was ruled a probable suicide.

Brocarde claims to have encountered several celebrity ghosts over the years.

That includes the spirit of Britain's wartime Prime Minister Sir Winston Churchill onboard the Queen Mary ship.

The ship has been turned into tourist attraction in Long Beach, California.

She said she encountered the ghost as she headed towards the bathroom, explaining: 'I was over come by an intense sensation of fear, I opened the bathroom door, and it was filled with a thick mist, I felt like someone was following me, as when the door slammed behind me, it slammed twice, like someone followed me in.

'Then I saw the full apparition of a heavy set man, with a cigar, he looked exactly like Winston Churchill. 

'I darted out the bathroom door like a flash of lighting, it was the quickest bathroom visit I've ever made...

'It later occurred to me that the fog, or heavy mist, could've been cigar smoke. 

'Later on that evening a member of staff told me that Winston Churchill's ghost had been spotted on board a few times, I was told that one member of staff got so spooked that they quit on their first day and never returned to the ship.'

She also claims to have seen the ghost of late Motorhead rocker Lemmy during a seance at the Wacken Open Air festival in Germany, where his ashes were scattered following his death in 2015 at the age of 70.
