Tonopah Historic Mining Park
The Tonopah Historic Mining Park is located on the original site of the claims that made Tonopah, the Queen of the Silver Camps, famous.

Visitors may visit preserved and restored buildings, mining artifacts, equipment, and historic exhibits. Many of these mining process techniques are still being used today.

Tonopah Nevada - Part 8 Lurking In The Darkness
Within a week I return to Tonopah only this time we would spend a night at the creepy, haunted and strange Clown Motel. This clip will start off at room 103 where we bunked up for the night at then will take you just below the Silver Top mine to some haunted dark abandoned miner cabins. Ahead of time the film is dark I could not find my bright light we had driven through a blizzard earlier that morning everyone was simply cold, tired and due to previous issues with locals on my first adventure we had to maintain a very low profile sorry. After we explore some miner cabins I head off to the old very haunted pioneer cemetery along the way giving you a dismal tour of the Clown Motel as we peer into a room filled with clowns. While I visited the graveyard at night during our first expedition this time around I spent a couple hours behind the Clown Motel investigating various grave sites and doing my own paranormal investigation more extensively which produced us some great EVP's and even a few pictures of manifestations. The cemetery may just be haunted by the ghost of those who died in the Belmont Mine Fire, Mysterious Plague and other tragic accidents. I have heard of people being chased by scary clowns here although I did not see any my creep factor was pretty high while trampling around in the darkness between rows of wood crosses. At the end of the clip we have some eerie music and a wonderful gallery of evidence we collected here along with some photos from our night portion of the expedition. This may just be one of the most haunted cemeteries in all of Nevada.
