Here’s your chance to spend eternity with Marilyn Monroe.
A mausoleum crypt at Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park & Mortuary in Los Angeles is going on the block in March, according to Julien’s Auctions of Beverly Hills.
The spot — which can hold a “full body or ashes” — is located in the Corridor of Memories, Wall B, Crypt 3 — one row above and four spaces to the left of the “Some Like It Hot” and “The Seven Year Itch” bombshell.
“It’s the ultimate way to embrace Hollywood’s glamour and history,” gushed Darren Julien, CEO of the auction house.
The opening bid for the crypt is $50,000 and it is expected to fetch as much as $400,000, according to the auction house.
Monroe died tragically of a drug overdose at age 36 on Aug. 4, 1962.
Her ex-husband and baseball legend Joe DiMaggio organized a private funeral at the cemetery chapel four days later.
The Yankee reportedly chose the location because two women — Grace Goddard and Ana Lower — who had both helped care for Monroe as a young girl when her mother became incapacitated, were buried there.
Hugh Hefner, who famously launched Playboy magazine in 1953 with a nude Monroe on the first cover, was interred in the crypt to the immediate left of hers after his death at 91 in 2017.
In a 2009 interview with the Los Angeles Times, Hefner — who never met the woman who helped turn him into a publishing mogul — discussed his crypt purchase, saying, “Spending eternity next to Marilyn is an opportunity too sweet to pass up.”
Hef and Marilyn are in good company. Among the other show-biz luminaries eternally resting at Westwood are Natalie Wood; Farrah Fawcett and her husband Ryan O’Neal; Dean Martin; Truman Capote; Walter Matthau, and Monroe’s “Some Like It Hot” co-star Jack Lemmon.
“I believe this is a rare opportunity to spend your eternity in the company of Marilyn Monroe and Hugh Hefner,” said the seller, who wishes to remain anonymous.
The crypt is part of the “Hefner, Marilyn and Playboy Archives” auction slated for March 28-March 30, Julien said.
