Mae West: Phoenix, Arizona

MAE WEST slept here.
• • Mae, Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe, and Spencer Tracy are just a few of the Hollywood stars who have called the Hotel San Carlos (in downtown Phoenix) home – – at least for a night. Rumor has it that the landmark houses more than a few ghouls.
• • Completed in 1928, the Italian Renaissance-designed hotel was built on the site of Phoenix's first school, a one-room, adobe building built in 1874.
• • In May 2006, a ghost visited one female guest who was spending a night in the Marilyn Monroe Suite. Monroe always requested a certain third floor room because of its proximity to the rooftop pool. The guest told the manager that she and her boyfriend noticed that the lights would dim and then brighten. And a ghostly foot rubbed against hers.
• • Whichever hotel suite Mae West used, she would not have been rattled by spooks. It is possible that she stayed at the Hotel San Carlos in 1933 while she was promoting "I'm No Angel" at the Orpheum Theatre in downtown Phoenix.
