Notable Locations

Elysia

Saint Mary's Basilica

• Completed in 1914, Saint Mary's Basilica has the distinction of being the longest standing Elysium of the Phoenix domain. Intially utilized by the Camarilla court, it has served for over a century in this fashion. Through the shadow wars waged by the Sabbat, the tension between the Anarchs and the Camarilla and the eventual taking of the Domain by the Independent Alliance - Saint Mary's has stood as a revered location of peace to all Kindred who gaze upon it.

Spazio Creativo

San Carlos Hotel

• The Hotel San Carlos branch in Phoenix, Arizona, also known as San Carlos Hotel, is both an operating hotel and tourist site. It has been associated with ghost sightings. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in 1983 as San Carlos Hotel. Before the hotel was built, this was the site of the first school in Phoenix, attended by many of the children who died in the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic. The subsequent luxury hotel was the first place in Phoenix to feature air conditioning, elevators, steam heat, and other features. The most frequently reported ghosts are those of 1928 suicide jumper Leone Jensen (aged 22), and an unidentified little girl (aged 6 to 9), although there have been other suicides and deaths on the premises.
