The Clown Motel is a 31-room roadside motel in Tonopah that opened in 1985 and has been called America's scariest motel. Its clown museum holds more than 6,500 clowns, according to the motel, and every room has clown art on the walls. Several rooms carry horror film themes, including the IT Room, the Exorcist Room and the Halloween Room. The historic Tonopah Cemetery sits right next door, where the owner built a gazebo for guests.
