If you're at all intrigued by true crime, you've likely heard of Elisa Lam. She mysteriously disappeared, and the last known images of her, captured at the Cecil Hotel in Los Angeles, show her acting very strangely in the elevator.
That story, and the rest of the Cecil Hotel's dark history is explored in the new Netflix documentary Crime Scene. There are good reasons why the Cecil is nicknamed "Hotel Death."
Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel premieres February 10 on Netflix.
Andy Hunsaker has a head full of sitcom gags and nerd-genre lore, and can be followed @AndyHunsaker if you're into that sort of thing.
