Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel
CrimeDocumentaryMystery54 min per episode
When Elisa Lam vanishes during a stay at the Cecil Hotel, her disappearance pulls a notorious property and a fast-moving public mystery into the same frame. Amy Price and Greg Kading are among the interview subjects helping piece together the case, as the series uses archival footage and reenactments to track the timeline around Lam's last known days there. The focus stays not just on the missing-person investigation, but on how the Cecil Hotel's reputation shaped the way the story spread, drawing in police, media coverage, and a widening circle of online attention.
