LOS ANGELES, USA - A second attempt to sell a crypt on top of Marilyn Monroe's final resting place has failed, with not a single bid received for the burial spot in a celebrity-filled Los Angeles cemetery.

Widow Elsie Poncher is trying to sell her husband's crypt to pay off the mortgage on her Beverly Hills home.

On selling the crypt, Poncher had planned to move her husband, who died in 1986, to an adjacent crypt intended for her.
