HAUNTED TOMBSTONE…THE LARIAN MOTEL!Tombstone, and locations in Tombstone make it onto many “most haunted” lists.Today we’re going to talk about the Larian Motel, 410 E Fremont St, Tombstone, AZ 85638, situated directly adjacent to another famous and purportedly haunted building, Schieffelin Hall, at the corner of 4th Street and Fremont.The building was originally constructed on Tuesday, April 22, 1952, Larry McCabe broke ground on what the Tombstone Epitaph called, “...another down-town motel project.” Originally there were four units built on the west side of the property followed by four on the east side. Another four units were added to the first as well as a home for Larry and his wife, Lillian. The name, LARIAN, is a contraction of the McCabe’s names using the first three letters of Larry and the last three letters of Lillian. The location of the Larian Motel has been a huge plus for this business, being a perfect place for tourists to stay, because it is so close to historic downtown Tombstone. The Larian Motel is found along HWY 80 (Fremont Street) that runs through the Tombstone historic district and is located near other “haunted” locations like the OK Corral, Schieffelin Hall, Big Nose Kate’s Saloon, the Crystal Palace saloon, Wyatt Earp’s Oriental Saloon, Undertaker Espresso, the Red Buffalo Trading Company and the Bird Cage Theatre, not to mention the paranormal activity often experienced on historic Allen Street itself!Though there are other locations in the area with ghostly guests, the Larian Motel does NOT disappoint, as it has its fair share of paranormal activity, and makes “most haunted” lists!There are reports of paranormal happenings throughout the motel, but most experiences are reported in the older original part of the building, rooms 1 through to 4. Larian Motel owner and proprietor, Gordon Anderson has said that he has heard faint sounds of old-fashioned music in the vicinity of the motel. He has searched for the source to no avail and yet they continue.As an example, in room 3, a set of twin sisters reported the feeling of a presence in their room, having both awakened at 12:30 am. They didn’t mention their separate experiences to each other until the following morning at breakfast, when they discovered they both had had the exact same experience. Creepy!Whispers and voices have been often heard by folks staying at the Larian as well. The motel site was once the location of a gun shop, a general store, and a Chinese restaurant.Another typical report in this room is of poltergeist like activity, i.e., missing objects and possessions, only to be returned to their original spots at a later time.One example of this is when a gentleman couldn’t find the glasses he had just placed on the nightstand. Being that his eyesight, without the glasses was lacking, he was sure that was the reason that he couldn’t find them. The guest asked for the help of staff to search the room, the Larian’s brand of “Western Hospitality”, but they found nothing. Returning after having dinner and a stroll around the historic Allen Street shops, the gentleman found that his glasses were exactly returned to where he had left them, right on the nightstand! On occasion something that wasn’t in the room or in the Larian Hotel mysteriously will appear as well.In the Doc Holliday room, there is a purported presence, that while rarely seen, is often felt. Guests relate that they can feel someone or something in the room watching themPoltergeist activity and disembodied voices and music are not all the happens at the Larian. The sighting of a large, white-haired man has been seen on many occasions in Room 4 (the Wyatt Earp Room). He’s been seen wearing a white shirt and apparently looking for something or someone.So if staying in a haunted location is your thing (specifically rooms 1-4), the Larian Motel might be just the ticket for you! If not, maybe stay in one of the newer rooms! The Larian is nicely a done motel with modern amenities, and if you’re lucky, possibly comes with added attractions!http://TombstoneParacon.com<3 PLEASE LIKE, COMMENT, AND SHARE! <3#tucson #phoenix #outlaw #scottsdale #okcorral #ghost #cowboy #tombstone #travel #arizona #docholliday #ghosttown #discovertombstoine #sierravista #sandiego #losangeles #wildwest #santafe #west #harleydavidson #london #gunslinger #paranormal #Dallas #lawman #lawdawg #oldwest #visitarizona #haunted #vacation@everyone
