5. Hotel Colorado – Glenwood Springs

4. Central City Masonic Cemetery – Central City
If you’re in the mood for an annual ghost sighting, head to the Central City Masonic Cemetery. Every year, a mysterious woman in black appears to lay flowers on the grave of John Cameron, a man who died in 1886. No one knows who she is or why she keeps coming, but she sure does keep things spooky.
3. Cheesman Park – Denver
Nothing like enjoying a sunny day at the park—except when that park was built on top of thousands of graves. Cheesman Park was once a cemetery, and not all the bodies were moved before it became a public space. Visitors report seeing shadowy figures and feeling watched. Great for picnics, not so much for peace of mind.
