We Spent the Night at the Clown Motel

hey you all carpetbagger here coming to you live from the great state of Nevada more specifically Tonopah Nevada and there's been something I've wanted to check out for quite some time if you check any list of America's creepiest hotels you'll find this probably as number one at the clown motel a hotel teamed after delightful circus clowns and I don't take anyone elses word for it I want to check this out for myself so me and my friend John where are you John oh gosh me and John are going to be spending the night here at the clown motel follow us [Music] each room has its own clown on the door you can see the happy little clown right there there in 101 all the different clowns on each door [Music] oh wow amazing [Music] more people you walk a massive collection of clowns [Music] look at all these wonderful cloud [Music] we see a lego Ronald McDonald right there it's like a red skeleton Eska clown move it [Music] this clowns got children on his lap [Music] it's not clean Allred for troll clown who that clown is playing the sax on the phone [Music] it's blow glass clowns just a little jack-in-the-box one day this box right here at seventy three clowns in it and it just showed up now shut up in the mail not one of the bro Peters everyone black Wow most things flying up there what's that Ronald McDonald this one this right here yeah that is that red skeleton - it is [Music] that's a long way to go into each other far come on [Music] and I guess you know here how there's museum here my grandmother loved these type of clowns yes the no parking sign has balloons on it look at that there's a cat in the window hopefully that's our room oh look at all these wonderful clowns you know what clown are we gonna get it no clown so yeah I'm pretty excited for the fact that I get to sleep with a velvet clown painting above my head oh look at this we know the toilets clean it's got a ribbon around it I'm pretty impressed here I've known that I've ever stayed in a room with two mini fridges look at that not one but two mini fridges they're both producing cold air you could really pack up stuff in there I'm not as impressed by this a dresser being held together with tape but it's a minor complaint and look at this phone okay this fan in the bathroom it's just a little bit now some people say that the clown motel is the creepiest hotel in the country because of the clowns but they're wrong has nothing to do with it what makes the clown motel the creepiest motel in the country is the fact that it's parking lot also includes a cemetery from 1901 this is the first cemetery and to Nepal yes said 1901 to 1909 after 1911 here they're like old Boot Hill style grave markers wooden gravestones from the early nineteen hundreds they've got like these metal like tin plates nailed to the wood does appear there's a lot of minors buried here okay so that fire 1911 killed how many minors 14 13 oh that like grace almost looks like there's like a bed post Ireland never Maryland cemetery is like huge sprawling cemeteries Old West Cemetery it's our baby graves that says baby bertrand r.i.p this is a baby's grave a six-month-old here's another grave this is curly also known as Norman Coombs says he was a miner you believe they put the word on someone's grave and he died 1996 1996 they put the word on his grave look at this the single grave has three gravestones and they're all like piled up in front of each other Wow he died in the he died in the mine fire chances right there here oh that's a mining pan right there yeah it says he died in the fire as well it looked like the miners headstones are marked with the pickaxe and shovel see what's up here uh-huh looks like some more clowns dang kind of wish we would have gotten the clown suite to sleep with the loving glow of that clown looking through our window all right I actually slept like a baby here in the clown hotel I'm gonna miss I'm gonna miss our little clown here on our door so yeah just look how close this old 1907 Terry is to the motel see it was pretty cold last night there actually is some frost on the tombstones this is interesting someone rigged the top of a selfie stick onto a under an egg timer that's pretty creative guess they're trying to get like a really cool panoramic shot good craftsmanship you can see back behind the old cemetery here there is a trailer park look at that his age it's just been left blank I guess they just didn't know so yeah how can you really go wrong with this you got a yeah the clown themed hotel on the same property as a hundred and twenty year old cemetery oh so cool there's a super old-school carwash called dad and Sons car wash I love that him dad and Sons that's so generic maybe we need to go for a car wash right through oh yeah look at this this is like the manual section put your money in there and then these are like the had these are like the manual ports and here so we're gonna drive our car through all right here we go this is kind of frightening I don't know what it's spraying out maybe oh geez you got a good view of the clown motel from this this carwash only that did you dig in this job he's got a rhythm to it oh here comes again watch out John a spray of more foam on oh we should do the car wash open window challenge no no no not right now we were in your car here comes the scary part what are those one of those tubes right there that's when we pull out that like the later whoa air to dry here goes that John is heating up his drone battery there on the on the heating vent I'm off on my drone but it's too cold what's this that's this is probably not as intense it's a it's like a filtered rinsing agent that like keeps you from another I say it you don't get spots all over your car huh no a lot of my car washes yeah I wash my car I don't this is still probably 20 years old it's a nozzle right there all right it still says still so stop cuz we gotta follow the instruction execution the drivers aren't working dude if they kicked on right now I want my I want my $10 back so what'd you think of the old clown motel there that was definitely a very unique very unique you've got a creepy experience you need probably the best word to describe it yes it's a essentially it's a clown themed hotel lobby is full of clowns and the parking lot connects to a hundred and twenty year old cemetery so really what more can you ask for then you can get your vintage car wash on your way out so it's a perfect little stop I mean not a five-star okay but they're very unique and cool yeah it wasn't like obviously the rooms were injury will run down it's an older place they've not modernized but it wasn't like it's not like I felt like I was going to get killed while we were there I was gonna step on a syringe or anything it's not a not another dirty room Dan Bell special it's a it is what it is and it is amazing yep anyways first you guys come along with us I've likes the other sketchy motels as well as other roadside attractions I've been to check down in the description I've interactive maps will show where I've been and you can tell me where I need to go and I'd like to
