The Story

A Haunted Places contributor describes several apparitions at Ouray's Historic Western Hotel: a dark figure at windows, a woman in older-style clothing near an upstairs studio, and an unseen presence associated with the cash register. The writer also says guests recorded experiences in room journals. These are collected visitor legends, not an independently inspected set of journals.
