America’s Scariest Motel Is No Laughing Matter
If you’re looking for your next vacation spot, how about considering somewhere unlike anywhere else in the world? Over 200 miles north of Las Vegas sits a hauntingly unique tourist destination straight out of a coulrophobe’s nightmares, the World Famous Clown Motel in Tonopah. Outside of paranormal researchers and ghost hunters, you won’t find many tourists frequenting Tonopah. The town has faced many hardships over the years and only boasts a population of around 2,000 people. Founded in 1900 as a mining community, the locals faced a plague in 1905 and a serious mine fire in 1911. Mine fires were a persistent problem in early Tonopah, and one would eventually claim the life of Clarence David in 1942. David had an impressive clown collection. Upon his death, his children inherited 150 of them. In 1985, they decided to open a motel next to the cemetery that housed their father’s grave. Inside, they proudly displayed their father’s collection. The Davids sold the motel 10 years later, and things really amped up in 2015, when “Ghost Adventures” premiered its episode at the location. Tourists flocked there, and people worldwide donated clowns to the museum. The Clown Motel was sold again in 2019 under the condition that it would continue operations and the clowns would remain. Over the years, the collection has grown significantly. They claim that it now holds over 6,500 clowns. They’ve even transformed some rooms to feature icons from America’s favorite horror movies, adding to the appeal. If you’re interested in staying at “America’s Scariest Motel,” rooms are available at an affordable price almost every night!
