I really like the use of vintage postcards on your new Route 66 series!

Justin, thanks for taking us on your journey. This was absolutely beautifully filmed and edited. Thanks for doing your part to educate so many other about this beautiful stretch on the country.

I, too, am a HUGE fan of old motels, signs, n neon especially. This Route 66 series is a gem 💎!!! Attaboy, Justin Scarred!!!

Hi Justin. I'm Lore and I was born and raised in little old HOLBROOK AZ. Born in 1968, and I'm now 54 years old. I really enjoyed your video. Brought me back a lot of beautiful memories. My dad use to work at the old plainsman restaurant and the Butterfield restaurant too. And a few other restaurants you showed. On the opposite side of the Bucket of blood is, there's an old hotel still standing, it was Arizona Rancho also known as Higgins House. Sure wish you would have gone in that direction. It always gave me the creeps, cus in front of the hotel was a huge window, at night they had a lil lamp that lit the lobby. Reminded me of Bates Motel. So hopefully if you ever go to Holbrook Az again try going to that hotel and hopefully you can explore it. Growing up there I never got to go in it. Just always walked by it. Again Thank you so much for that video. I really got a kick out of you when you went to the hotel in Gallup. Looked really pretty and scary. God bless you. 💜

I live in Holbrook, born and raised.. Love it here

My eight year old daughter wants to go to Route 66 to meet the randomland guy. You’re doing something right. Keep up the good work!

I love buildings that were built a long time ago. I've never been to El Rancho, but apparently a bunch of people could stay in that suite for a while if they were filming a movie in the desert or were hiding out from trouble in Hollywood.

HISTORY, HOTELS, HOLBROOK AND HAUNTINGS!!!!!!!!!!

Funny part is I live not that far from el Rancho and I refuse to set foot in that place because when I was younger I was in there to have lunch with my wife and mother and I swear the hairs on the back of my neck where standing on end. I kid you not once I saw something out in the corner of my eye float past the side of me.. Even driving past it in the winter creeps me out. There are a lot of ghosts and other things in that hotel and motel that people who work there have seen. Well brother stay safe in that haunted place.

I love the trains

Justin back on Route 66- life is good! Look for the black Mustang with CA license plates in AZ!

Oh my gosh, a closet with a lock..scary. But I really thought something was going to happen there when you were asleep. I was a little scared until the end when I couldn’t stop laughing. That was the best yet!!

I remember climbing ,playing on that fort when i was 6 , going to Disneyland from Texas . Back then it was the trip. But also stopping for the night was a big deal. Dad would have to do stuff to the 1953 station wagon. Put water in the radirator bag to keep the engine cool it seemed to take alot of effort getting back on the road . 66 was very small highway cars were so slow . I temember looking at the next hill u would see it for 15 mins. Wow, seems like a dream. Always a fight to stop at attractions like the Thing , & jack rabbit. Dad would say. We dont have enough time , by the 4 th day. We were really draging knowing going back we would do it all over again Thanks. JS

As a Pennsylvania guy I live vicariously through you... Thank you for the amazing content!

Great stuff Justin!!! Really enjoy your adventures and humor. In June 2020 a friend and I drove the route from Chicago to the Santa Monica pier in my Corvette. I wish we had stayed in El Rancho too. Keep up the nice work of keeping Route 66 alive.

SO MANY EPIC RELICS!

Really enjoyed how in depth you got in this video. We've watched you for a long while and still managed to learn something new! Thanks!

OMG imagine how near it would be to restore to plainsman and operate a greasy spoon cafe along Route 66. That’s the dream. I’ve never managed let alone worked in a restaurant, I know it’s not easy but any business along Route 66 would be neat. I repair auto interior and cannot seem to stray from the mother route myself. Completely by chance, I’ve found myself working along the route in both my home state of CA and now Missouri. I love the aesthetic of it, the vibe everything

Gotta LOVE Julio!!! Hes too cool!!!

Holbrook might be one of the only towns in AZ I’ve never visited. Literally drove just north of it en route to Gallup and then onto Albuquerque. Thanks for the vlog!

That room you stayed in must have been the proprietor's personal space that was converted to be more rooms at one point in time. Pretty neat! I love how the architecture inside is reminiscent of National Park Rustic/Parkitecture with the Inglenook type fireplace. Think Wilderness Lodge, which is inspired by that style. Great video as always! That hotel is kind of a cool mesh of 1930s Hollywood Western meets 1930s tourist architecture. Glad it's been saved!

i thought the end you would go "nooosferaaaaatuuuu" like in spongebob haha. The amount of effort you put in your videos is nuts man. Inspiring stuff

I really enjoyed this, Justin. Your narrative was entertaining and you showed numerous locations. I actually had reservations here an couple years back but a family emergency kept me from going. (I will say the management was very understanding and charged nothing at all when I had to cancel) Something that I couldn't help but notice was how much you love your car! I saw more of it than I did of you! hahaha!! Be well and safe journeys, my friend!!

I grew up in this area and it’s a shame how it has run down. I remember it in its day and it was a great place to live with amazing people. A lot of my friends owned some of the business shown, the romos cafe and Joe and Aggies are both great. I dated a girl that’s parents owned the Butterfield and in high school re rented and partied in so many of those cheesy hotels … thanks for a blast from the past… it’s rare I get back there and it is interesting to see it from an outsiders view !

Must take a trip out to that amazing hotel!!

Thanks!

Great information

Good vlog and thank you

i rember the Ftroop ty for showing this video

Back in 2005 the Plainsman was still open. We had a our Golf Reception in there. It was a steakhouse like the Butterfield.

Hehehe. Funny love Julio

amazing video

THAT'S A LONG MILE!

1st time I came across your channel it is really cool an exciting 😀

Bucket list!!!

They really had good pan cakes back in the early 70s. Thank you., at the fort

There should be more people there.

Good stuff bradda!

Great video, creepy vibe at the El Rancho, not sure I could fall asleep there

Dude. So glad you back on Rt. 66. Your best and most creative videos are def. your travel stories.

Was there a couple of weeks ago. Walked those lonsome halls by myself, but couldn't bring myself to go up to the 3rd floor...stayed un that Best Western bc I was Not gonna take a chance in El Rancho - already freaky enough in the daytime 😮 good food and dessert at El Rancho

Now, now, now, Justin... You didn't get the "Willys" you got the "Wiletts" .....! See what I did there? ;-) XOOXOX

Hey I believe you saw a ghost. In my apartment I had woken up and other people were awake. I just happened to look towards kitchen doorway and saw someone walking into kitchen. My thought was “huh, how odd that my brother is awake this early” so I want into kitchen to ask what he was doing. There was no one in the kitchen.

nice vid

Love this stuff! Thank you

The El Rancho could give the Winchester House a run for it’s weirdness money #wheredoesthisdoorgo

I kept expecting Julio after those knocks 😅

Haha we were just there about a month ago, stayed a few days at the ok rv park.

I believe you dude. I can't exactly WHAT that guy was, but I believe you saw him. =)

Son.. I think ya got a Career in the Horror🙀😱. Even if Tongue Firmly n' Cheek🤗🤪

I love ur videos

I wanted to stay at the El Rancho in May but a king deluxe room was $200 and then they wanted me to pay EZTRA FOR AIR CONDITIONING!!! I ASSUMED A DELUXE ROOM WOULD COME WITH AC????, so needless to say we are staying at the comfort inn😊😊

Wigwam hotel. Ah yes. It has a private museum and you should ask the office if you can see it. Or maybe you already have....

Love the video man I live in Holbrook and want to meet you so much and how long will be in Holbrook for?

Truly terrifying

A little creepy at times. I had to put my phone in the freezer for a little while. ( Friends shining episode)

Ooooh !!! Now you're investigating 🔎 ? Ready to take me up on my offer to really go in and investigate ? 👻 #HauntedOCFamily

😍

You need some Rain X on your windows

You're such a cool dude, Justin. :)

pretty much the "explanations" for ghost sightings are TOTALLY more outrageously improbable than just admitting a ghost has been seen

Skate the pool.

i believe spirits are real anf if i was in that situation I would run or rebuke.

There is a reason you aren't a billionaire. If you bought up all these old businesses on route 66 you would probably lose a lot of money.

Some buildings you were filming are owned by my godfather 😁

HANDMADE DINOSAURS!!!!!!!!!!!!
