Denver, Colorado · Other
Haunted Places collects Peabody-Whitehead Mansion stories of falling books, displaced objects, unexplained crying and sounds from disconnected bells or telephones. Retellings also name an upstairs woman as Ella or Eloise and describe a pipe-smoking older figure. The page's more sensational death stories are not necessary to establish the building's folklore and are not asserted as documented history.
Empire, Colorado · Other
Haunted Places publishes a contributor's account of a former owner's apparition walking through this former hotel. The account associates him with a fatal carriage accident and also mentions unexplained coughing, localized chills and clothing that seems to move.
Pueblo, Colorado · Other
A Haunted Places contributor reports sounds resembling old firefighting vehicles moving inside the Pueblo Firefighters Museum after dark. Another story describes a dark figure seated in a fire engine near the entrance. The source interprets these reports paranormally, but the profile does not claim the museum's vehicles physically drive themselves.
Golden, Colorado · Other
Haunted Places recounts two Red Rocks legends: a briefly appearing bearded man holding a bottle, interpreted as a miner, and a headless rider said to guard the area. The rider is described as a woman carrying a hatchet. These are reported outdoor legends associated with the amphitheater landscape.

Haunted Places publishes a brief contributor report about a woman in old-fashioned clothing appearing at Durango's Rochester Hotel.
Colorado Springs, Colorado · Other
A Haunted Places contributor associates Rock Ledge Ranch with unexplained footsteps, lights changing without an obvious cause and a rocking chair moving while apparently unoccupied. Its historical explanation is not repeated here because the site's institutional history needs stronger verification.
Pueblo, Colorado · Other
Haunted Places describes Rosemount Museum accounts of footsteps and other unexplained sounds, shadowy shapes, unusual lights and occasional figures. It does not securely identify the supposed spirits. The stories attach to the historic Thatcher mansion now used as the museum, rather than to separate exhibit rooms.
Silver Cliff, Colorado · Other
Haunted Places describes Silver Cliff Cemetery's tradition of pale blue or white lights drifting among the graves and appearing to bounce near headstones. Its account traces the story to miners using the grounds as a shortcut and mentions later magazine coverage. The lights are the reported phenomenon; their cause is not established.

Haunted Places recounts a young girl's apparition playing with a ball in St. Cloud Hotel corridors. Other stories describe missing objects, lights and television sets switching unexpectedly, and chairs rearranged when rooms were empty. The hotel remains a distinct folklore location pending a fresh operating-status check.
Antonito, Colorado · Hotel
Haunted Places carries a contributor's story of resident ghosts in two Steam Train Hotel rooms. Its most specific report describes a floating, cloudlike form traveling between rooms and disappearing into an unused elevator shaft. No reliable identity is supplied for the supposed presence.
Durango, Colorado · Hotel
A contributor to Haunted Places describes a disappearing man beside the Strater Hotel and a figure in railway-worker clothing crossing the lobby. Additional stories concern a shadowy presence and a translucent woman on the upper floors. These accounts connect the hotel's folklore with Durango's railroad setting. The profile does not treat the writer's claims about staff behavior or building history as independently established facts, and it does not authorize exploration of employee-only areas.
Trinidad, Colorado · Hotel
Haunted Places describes a woman in a gown appearing near the foot of the Tarabino Inn stairs. Unexplained footfalls and the smell of cigars accompany the property's ghost reputation. The source connects the building to the Tarabino family but does not positively identify the apparition.
Denver, Colorado · Hotel
Haunted Places describes Brown Palace stories of calls from an empty suite associated with Louise Crawford Hill and a group of formally dressed musicians encountered in the dining room. Other accounts concern a conductor, a waiter near the service elevator, children in the corridors and crying from the boiler area.
Denver, Colorado · Other
Haunted Places records Buckhorn Exchange accounts of voices and footsteps without visible sources, alongside tables apparently moving on their own. The stories attach to the historic Denver restaurant and its longstanding gathering-place atmosphere.
Manitou Springs, Colorado · Hotel

Cripple Creek, Colorado · Hotel
In Haunted Places' account, Hotel St. Nicholas has mischievous spirits associated with its former institutional life. A child called Petey is said to remove objects from guests at the bar. Another figure, described as a gold miner, reportedly appears on the rear stairs or seated in the office. The story connects the child tentatively to the Sisters of Mercy, but does not establish his identity.
Alma, Colorado · Other
Haunted Places records strange lights and an upstairs female apparition at the former Schwartz Hotel. Local retellings connect the building with a fatal dispute between a father and son, followed by a woman's death on the balcony. The account says the woman is subsequently seen in an upstairs hallway. It also repeats a violent family-dispute legend, which has not been historically checked.
Denver, Colorado · Other
Haunted Places records a child apparition at the Tivoli building on Denver's Auraria campus. The story associates her with a house formerly on part of the site. It also reports that investigators interpreted underground noises and recordings as paranormal activity. Neither the child's identity nor the recordings are independently verified here.
Littleton, Colorado · Other
Haunted Places reports furniture being rearranged at Littleton's Town Hall Arts Center. Accounts also describe unexplained laughter and music continuing after dark. The source connects the building's ghost reputation with its earlier civic uses, including offices and a jail, without identifying a particular spirit responsible for the disturbances.
Boulder, Colorado · Other
Haunted Places describes two figures in Macky Auditorium folklore: a woman associated with a historic campus killing and a man in brown connected to a tower. Reports also include unexplained organ music. The page's detailed violent narrative and claims about physical traces are not treated as established facts in this profile.
Victor, Colorado · Hotel
Haunted Places connects the Victor Hotel's fourth floor with reports of voices, footsteps and human figures. A separate in-building legend names Eddie, associated with room 301 and an elevator-shaft death, while the elevator itself supposedly operates unexpectedly. The source's mortuary and death explanations need independent historical verification.
Arvada, Colorado · Other
According to Haunted Places, restaurant employees and paranormal investigators associated unusual activity at the Arvada Yak and Yeti with a former resident called Cora Van Voorhis. Reported experiences include unexplained voices, clinking sounds, flickering lights and a moving chair. The source links Cora to a fall on the stairs, but that historical detail has not been independently checked here.
