The Goldfield Hotel is located in Goldfield Nevada. Goldfield is a small town by any measurement. There are about 500 residents. The hotel was built in 1908 and cost about a half million dollars. The building was very ornate with the lobby trimmed in mahogany and black leather upholstery. The building had an elevator and chandeliers made of crystal.

The hotel stopped doing business in 1946. The building was used in the 1971 movie Vanishing Point that starred Barry Newman and Cleavon Little.

The Ghost Hunters air their investigation of the Goldfield Hotel in April 2008. There have been other groups that have investigated the property.

A group called Spirits-Speak has been to the Goldfield Hotel. They apparently went there with the TV show Dead Famous a few years back. The episode was the one where they searched for Howard Hughes’ ghost. Here is their report that include some EVPs, but are not very good.

Another group Nevada Spirit Seekers has also visited the Goldfield Hotel. They actually have investigated twice and have posted their report.

Haunted Goldfield Hotel, Goldfield Nevada

We just had to stop on our way through Goldfield to take a quick look at the haunted Goldfield Hotel. August 23, 2005.
It's not open to the public so I could only look through the windows. There's no one around...........sure feels creepy.
