The sixth season of BuzzFeed Unsolved: Supernatural is back with another thrilling episode called "The Hollywood Ghosts of the Legendary Viper Room." The episode is a classic spooky and supernatural adventure of the two hosts, Ryan Bergara and Shane Madej, as they explore the depths of one of Hollywood's most infamous nightclubs.
The Viper Room is an iconic nightclub located on Sunset Boulevard in West Hollywood, California, most well-known for its association with the death of actor River Phoenix. Ryan and Shane begin their investigation by exploring the history of the Viper Room. The club was opened in 1993 and has since then been a popular destination for musicians, celebrities, and eager party-goers alike. During their exploration, Ryan and Shane encounter unsuspecting employees who share their eerie experiences of seeing ghosts in and around the club.
According to local legend and numerous eyewitness accounts, the Viper Room is said to be haunted by the spirits of the deceased, including a former Hollywood elite, Bugsy Siegel, who was allegedly gunned down in the alley behind the club in the late 1940s. Another common sighting is the spirit of actress Jean Harlow, who apparently haunts the bar area of the club with her signature platinum blonde curls. These ghostly happenings have made the Viper Room a popular destination for paranormal enthusiasts.
Ryan and Shane talk to staff members, former employees, and guests who have all had supernatural experiences while in the club. One witness claims to have seen a ghostly figure walking through the walls of the club, while others have reported hearing unexplained noises and experiencing intense feelings of dread while inside.
The most chilling story, however, comes from a former bartender who claims to have experienced an encounter with a ghost in the infamous "green room." This room is known for being the place where River Phoenix died of a drug overdose in 1993. The bartender describes feeling the presence of an unseen entity and hearing unexplained noises before finally seeing the ghostly apparition of a young man in the doorway.
As the investigation moves forward, Ryan and Shane decide to take their exploration outdoors. They venture out into the alley behind the club, where they interview local residents who have all had their own run-ins with the supernatural. The alley becomes a hub for discussion about the history of the building and the curious figures that once roamed its halls.
In the end, the ghosts of Hollywood's elite continue to haunt the Viper Room, making it a hotspot for paranormal activity. Ryan and Shane leave the club with new insights and experiences, but the mystery of the Hollywood ghosts remains unsolved.
