Ever heard of the Gorilla Villa? How about the "headless" Gorilla Villa? Well, the Gorilla Villa sign in gorilla... 'er...

Unless, of course, the traveler is used to seeing headless apparitions.
The Penn Aire Motel features a few different marquees outside advertising its services. This place is located in Breezewood, PA.
