In the United States, there is a hotel dedicated to clowns

The owners assure that they are fans of the circus universe and that they simply wanted to share their interest in the thing. Yeah! The Clown Motel is the embodiment of coulrophobia's worst nightmares:the hotel is decorated around the theme of clowns, you fall asleep and wake up next to clowns, eat next to clowns and wash next to clowns. In short, sleeping there is a real test of courage!

A decoration that thrills

It is in the Nevada desert that we can see a large illuminated sign depicting a smiling clown who welcomes us with open arms. As soon as we enter, we are warmly welcomed by a life-size clown who stares at us with wide eyes. On his knees… clowns, who can also be found on the shelves, in paintings on the walls and observing visitors at every corner of the corridors. In total, the hotel is home to nearly 600 clowns who thrill Poltergeist fans and delight Stephen King fans. Many thrill-seeking travelers have stopped off at this hotel, which has become an internet star. Located 320 kilometers north of Las Vegas and not far from the famous area 51, there are rooms from 37 € per night.

Are you tempted? We are going to pass. It's not that we're scared, but the hotel is located right next to an abandoned cemetery... It's starting to do a lot!
