The Journey
Landmark Motor Hotel (Janis Joplin's Death Site)
Visit the former Landmark Motor Hotel, now Highland Gardens Hotel, and specifically room 105, where the legendary Janis Joplin tragically passed away from a heroin overdose in 1970. While the hotel has undergone renovations, the somber history permeates the atmosphere, serving as a poignant reminder of a musical icon's untimely end and a pivotal moment in rock and roll history. Reflect on Joplin's profound influence and the circumstances surrounding her death in this now infamous location.
Michael Myers House (Halloween Filming Location)
Journey to the unassuming house that served as the iconic backdrop for John Carpenter's 1978 horror masterpiece, 'Halloween.' This private residence, though modified since filming, still evokes the chilling atmosphere that made Michael Myers a cinematic terror. Stand where Laurie Strode faced her fears and immerse yourself in the origins of a slasher film legend. While you can only view from the street, it's a pilgrimage for horror fans eager to connect with the film's terrifying legacy.
Menendez Mansion (Former Residence)
Drive past the former Beverly Hills estate, once the site of the horrific Menendez brothers' crime. While the original mansion has been demolished and replaced, the location remains a chilling reminder of the brutal murders of Jose and Kitty Menendez by their sons, Lyle and Erik, in 1989. The story of the Menendez brothers captivated the nation, and while the house is gone, the location continues to draw dark tourism enthusiasts interested in true crime history.
The Viper Room & Sunset Strip (River Phoenix's Death Site)
Pay your respects at the site of the former Viper Room nightclub on the Sunset Strip, where rising star River Phoenix tragically collapsed and died from a drug overdose in 1993. Observe the sidewalk where his brother Joaquin made the desperate 911 call, a spot that has become an unofficial memorial to the young actor's promising but short life. Reflect on the fleeting nature of fame and the fragility of life amidst the vibrant backdrop of Hollywood's nightlife.
