This is me checking into what's known as the most haunted hotel in the US, according to YouTube.
2
Every YouTuber who stayed here shows their insane, life-changing, terrifying experience after just one night.
3
But at the same time, some people say the Clown Motel is nothing more than a
4
gimmick built right next to an old cemetery to make it creepy.
5
So tonight, I'm staying here myself to answer one question.
6
Is the Clown Motel really haunted, or is it just a money-making tourist trap?
7
It's a three-hour car ride to get to the Clown Motel.
8
Josh?
9
Yeah?
10
How you feeling about this?
11
I don't like clowns too much.
12
We got some clowns right here, too.
13
I mean, this is going to be crazy.
14
Three hours and three-minute drive.
15
Everyone buckle your seatbelts.
16
It's about to be a fun ride.
17
Storm's coming right now, too.
18
Storm is coming.
19
We got to go to the circle.
20
I've tried calling the Clown Motel.
21
They don't answer.
22
So we're on the way.
23
Three-hour drive.
24
Hopefully, we don't pull up just to get denied a room.
25
We would be clowns for that one.
26
At least it's not 200 miles away, though.
27
This is allegedly the most haunted room, room 222.
28
We're gonna add room and I'm gonna book it right now.
29
Oh my god last room available I always grew up.
30
I was called the class clown until I was called weird
31
And now I I feel like I'm finally getting to go where I belong
32
Troll Emergency alert national weather service a flash flood warning is in effect in the area until 415.
33
This is a dangerous and life-threatening threatening situation.
34
Do not attempt to travel unless you're fleeing an area to subject flooring or under evacuation order.
35
Whose idea was it to go to the clown motel?
36
Whose idea was it?
37
Someone confess up.
38
It's downpouring right there.
39
Oh, hopefully we don't get a flat tire and run out of gas right now.
40
Nico, why would you say that?
41
Hi boys, we're five minutes out from the clown motel.
42
It is freezing right now.
43
Did not expect this.
44
Oh, I'm cold, Nico.
45
Nico, I'm cold.
46
Guys, Nico's cold right now.
47
Nico, Nico, I'm cold.

Wait away, wait away.

50
BTS, some John's Snapchat story.
51
That's crazy.
52
Across the street is a cemetery.
53
I have a chip in my stomach.
54
What does that mean?
55
Yeah, I don't like the way it feels, but we're gonna get out and check in.
56
John, you gonna spend the night here or what?
57
Me and clowns don't work together.
58
It's time to check in.
59
I'm scared.
60
Yo, this is some crazy stuff.
61
Is this really haunted or what?
62

95
Why?
96
Yeah, because of you?
97
You can keep it your name.
98

99
I won't charge you, but because I'm more famous than anybody, so that we have to have my name.
100
What about Diddy?
101
More famous than Diddy, you think?
102
Everybody.

162
Hey, she's looking for ghosts too.
163

165
You think this place is actually haunted?
166

171
Is there rooms above us?

We are outside of the Tunopah Cemetery this cemetery was canceled in 1911 Let's see how far ash walks
176
What the f* is that?
177
No, seriously, what the f* is that?
178
Don't do that.
179
Guys, I think there's someone here.
180
The graves are probably so small because they're probably not caskets.
181
It's dead.
182
That's probably just the bodies in the ground.
183
As we're exploring the cemetery, I'm gonna keep the ghost app on.
184
Let's head out.
185
Oh, sinful.
186

191
I don't want to disrespect anybody here if it's Israel.
192
But some of these graves is just like it doesn't seem
193
look this looks too new look There's none of rusting I
194
feel like we got a fact check this was struck by a train while walking down tracks He was dead, but maybe I'm wrong.

235
When spirits enter people's bodies, they just feel it out of emotion.
236
They don't physically feel it.
237
He just started crying.
238
Immediately after filming this clip the camera mysteriously stopped recording
239
and we didn't notice until 20 minutes later I figured it was a glitch, but when my filmer pressed record again,
240
it stopped recording instantly This actually scared me and I was having second thoughts that maybe this motel actually is haunted.
241
Did it just go back?
242
Yeah What?
243
No, that's weird bro.
244
Cause when it ended it was when...
245

246

247
It just stopped recording.
248
Woah!
249
Stop recording no, it's got five hours Y'all got the skills hard Yeah,
250
let's leave now Dude I just stopped recording out of nowhere.
251
Why did it do that though Cameron never does that It's never done that though Nico.
252
I've never had to happen So when we were in there Matt started crying
253
and then right after camera just magically stopped recording
254
and then said went to Go do it again
255
and as soon as he pressed record it stopped it cut instantly The ghost app was telling Jaden something.
256
It said, did you feel me right after he was coming.
257
Yeah.
258
Oh, yeah, it did say, did you feel me?
259

262
Like, why me?
263

401
Stop, stop.
402
What if this thing is set up specifically for the cemetery?
403
Like, what if that sh is rigged?
404
No, there's no way.
405
They would never fake anything at this in the hotel.
406
Like, because I'm more famous than anybody.
407
How do they fake that?
408
How would they fake that?
409
There's three.
410

411
Oh!
412
There's three.
413
Who is that?
414

424
It's still going off, bro.
425
If you want to speak with us, we're just here to talk.
426
Yes.
427
Dudes.
428
Well, not all of us.
429
I just asked if they wanted to talk.
430
They said three.
431
They said three earlier.
432
They just said three.
433
When does it go off?
434
Well, it's just going off consistently.
435
Oh, look.
436
It's off now.
437
Now?
438
Oh.
439
Dude.
440
Bro, this is not like from the camera or the phone or anything.
441
Earlier, you saw it.
442
To get it to go off on the phone, you had to f*ing put it right up to the phone.
443
Watch see it's still going off bro.
444
I don't like this room W Dude you made it so sus Went to the hospital man.
445
Oh Las Vegas Las Vegas hospital my mom's down there.
446
The thing about this is he's recording for snapchat with no flash Just put it down there again Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, look it.
447
It's green.
448
I don't like this at all.
449
I just got a headache out of nowhere That's what I said.
450
I said she got a headache.
451
Okay, let's get out of here.
452
Bro, no, I'm done.
453
I'm done.
454
I'm done.
455
Let's go back to the room.
456
It's going off.
457
I'm done.
458
I'm actually done.
459
Bro, I'm done.
460
Oh, God.
461
Dude.
462
Yo, wouldn't be surprised if we go in the room right now and he's in our room.
463
Why is our window open, bro?
464
The window of the room is open.
465
Did something scratch me?
466
Let me see.
467
Bro, you got itchy.
468
It scratches back.
469
It's midnight.
470
We're going to go back into the cemetery.
471
They went in there all alone without the camera.
472
This is terrifying.
473
What?
474
What?
475
I'm done.
476
I'm done.
477
EMF detector rolling so high bro Laura Smith will go step am I by Laura Smith right now can you hear me?
478
What was cause of death?
479
No What shovel stop?
480
I'm telling you it's the power lines right here.
481
Oh you think?
482
I'm so confident.
483
Look at the power lines right over here.
484
Oh you're right.
485
Like directly over.
486
It might have been the power lines bro And that's the whole bit that would make sense actually.
487
Yeah, it's not rigged.
488
It's just power lines It's not going off.
489
After we rented the EMF detector from the famous guy, but because I'm more famous than anybody, we realized it only goes off because the power lines are placed directly above and below the cemetery.
490
So that kind of proves it was a $35 scam, even though it was pretty scary being in an old cemetery after midnight.
491
We're getting out of here right now.
492
Nothing really proves it's actually really haunted.
493
I don't know.
494
It kind of made sense why the EMF detector was going off.
495
If the EMF detector goes off right here, it's because the power lines.
496
It's under the EMF.
497
Yeah, it makes a lot of sense, bro.
498
Yeah, power lines are right there, bro.
499
It's right under it.
500
It becomes super high.
501
Yeah.
502
Oh my god.
503
No, just- No!
504
You're about to get this f*ing.
505
D*.
506
Around 2 a.m we decided to actually leave the motel.
507
But on our way out, we noticed some people in a car with tinted windows knocking.
508
At first I thought these people were trying to scare us.
509
But then I also thought maybe they needed help and they were locked in the car.
510
We weren't sure if we were going to call the cops or approach the car.
511
So after debating in the sprinter for like 15 minutes, we decided to approach the vehicle and see if they needed help.
512
They were knocking when we walked by.
513
Oh, he's right.
514
He's right.
515
He is right.
516
I'm not kidding.
517
Oh my God, they were knocking, bro.
518
No, we should ask them if they're all right.
519
Should we mind our business or try to be a hero here?
520
I ain't no Captain Sabah.
521
I'll f* them kids.
522
Oh my God, we're dead.
523
You guys good?
524
You guys okay? Are you guys okay?
525
You guys alright?
526
I don't know what that was, that was creepy.
527
Bro, we should know what it comes.
528
It's not.
529
You think so?
530
To this day, I still don't know who was in that car and why they were trying to get our attention.
531
But we did end up calling the police just in case it was children inside the car.
532
And now with all of this said and done, it leads me back to the reason I came to the clown motel in the first place.
533
To find out if it's haunted
534
or a money making tourist trap stayed here for 12 hours
535
and the vibe definitely felt strange
536
but at the same time it's in the middle of the Nevada desert where there is nothing
537
so anything you do out there is gonna feel strange.
538
Obviously the clown motel is built directly next to an old abandoned cemetery
539
and now I can definitely see why people think this place is haunted.
540
The fact that Matt started crying in the cemetery for no reason means a spirit entered his body.
541
It sounds crazy but when a spirit enters someone's body they don't physically feel it they feel it emotionally.
542
That would explain why he started crying.
543
So to answer my question, do I think it's haunted?
544
Not completely.
545
If anything, the cemetery is haunted, not the actual clown motel.
546
I'm not into haunted things, so please subscribe.
547
Stop making me do this.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
