Denver Ghost Tour | Let’s Get Spooky

Gaslights, Graves, and Gold

The Mile High City of Denver is known for its sunshine, mountain views, and microbreweries- but when the sun sets a much darker history surfaces. If you’re looking to trade your skies for spine-tingling thrills, I found the perfect adventure for you: the Gaslights, Graves, and Gold: Terrors of Denver Ghost Tour by Us Ghost Adventures!

The Best Ghost Tour Of Denver

Growing up I was always into True Crime, Ghost Stories and all things Illuminati. My bff Jordan and I would prance the hallways of high school with our gal pals talking about all the conspiracy theories and spooky stories we could fit in between classes. When US Ghost Adventures reached out about an opportunity to go on a Ghost Tour of Denver and we JUMPED at the opportunity!

Colorado has lots of spooky spots and US Ghost Tours highlights all of the best areas. From Cripple Creek, to Boulder, Breckenridge to Crested Butte, and of course our very own Denver - they have a tour of all types and in all places here.

We opted in for Capitol Hill because growing up here we were more than intrigued about the true spooky stories of our own backyard. We started at the Capitol and I of course also had to make some Ghostie Cookies for the occasion!

Gaslights, Graves, and Gold:The Terrors of Denver

I am a Colorado Native and our Tour Guide Kevin (The best!!) was teaching me so much about our famous Cap Hill! Your tour starts at the Capitol where youll get a true insight on some spooky histroy and recent revelations. You will then walk to other historically haunted places like The Molly Brown House and hear the unsettling tales of the "Unsinkable Molly Brown," the Titanic survivor whose spirit is rumored to remain tethered to her former mansion. You’ll hear stories of the The Acacia Apartments (formerly a luxury hotel) and whose tenants still report strange encounters. My favorite was the Peabody Whitehead Mansion and watching my EMF reader light up RED the second we walked here. A lot of these locations have been featured on Ghost Hunting Shows!

Ghost Hunting 101: Can We Talk to the Spirits?

For the adventurous soul, this tour offers more than just stories. While the experience is primarily a walking history tour, Kevin told us about a number of guests report ghostly sitings, spooky activity, and leaning into the spirits using the EMF Readers. For $7 you can rent the EMF reader for the tour which will provide you an opportunity observe the Electromagnetic Field in real time. These devices are thought by paranormal enthusiasts to measure fluctuations in the electromagnetic field, which can indicate the presence of spiritual energy. It was mind blowing to watch it glow when activity was in our presence and made the tour SO much better. US Ghost Tours also have the option to purchase these readers for your own spooky adventures - check them out here!
