Helper, Utah is one of the most active paranormal hot-spots in the State of Utah. With a very colorful past and a good collection of old buildings, this small historic town located in southeastern UT will never let you down. The old Carbon Hotel is just one excellent example for a memorable investigation. The Carbon Hotel once supported four bars and a brothel upstairs in the hotel part of this historic building. two bars were down stairs in the basement and the other two bars were on the main street level. the brothel was upstairs and was accessible from the sidewalk outside. This building, along with many others was connected to the Helper main street underground tunnel system, which provided not only a safety corridor for the brothel workers, but also served as a way to get alcohol and gambling devices delivered to the towns bars without interference from the local Sheriff. One bar and the brothel stayed in business until the mid 1970's, until it closed down for good. Today the old Carbon Hotel serves as a meeting place for the Clampers, E Clampus Vitus and can be easily be spotted from main street.
