Drawn by the allure of the unknown, I ventured to Glenwood Springs for a ghost tour that promised spine-tingling tales and a thrilling after-dark adventure. Join me as I explore the haunted history of this charming town.
A Haunting Prelude in Glenwood Springs
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting an eerie glow over the quaint town of Glenwood Springs, I found myself drawn to the whispers of the past. The allure of the unknown and the promise of spine-tingling tales led me to embark on the Glenwood Springs Ghost Tour. Known for its vibrant nightlife and underground scenes, I was eager to explore a different kind of after-dark adventure—one that promised to be both mysterious and thrilling.
The tour began at the iconic Bullocks Western Store, a place steeped in history and intrigue. As we gathered outside, our guide, a charismatic storyteller with a flair for the dramatic, set the stage for the evening. The building, once the final resting place of the infamous gunslinger Doc Holliday, exuded an air of mystery. Inside, the basement housed a collection of artifacts and photos that painted a vivid picture of Doc’s life and untimely death. The stories of his restless spirit lingering in the shadows sent shivers down my spine, a perfect prelude to the night ahead.
Ghostly Encounters and Eerie Echoes
Our journey through Glenwood Springs continued as we strolled through the historic downtown area. The streets, lined with vintage buildings, seemed to whisper secrets of the past. Each stop along the way revealed tales of notorious outlaws and ghostly apparitions, weaving a tapestry of history and hauntings that was both captivating and chilling.
One of the most memorable stops was the vintage railway station, a place where time seemed to stand still. Our guide recounted stories of spectral sightings and strange happenings that had been reported over the years. The atmosphere was electric, charged with the energy of the past and the spirits that still lingered. As a DJ and music producer, I’m no stranger to the power of a good story, and these tales were as compelling as any beat drop I’ve ever experienced.
The Haunting Finale at Hotel Colorado
The tour culminated at the historic Hotel Colorado, a grand building with a storied past. As we gathered in the dimly lit lobby, our guide regaled us with tales of Al Capone’s rumored visits and the hotel’s transformation into a naval hospital during WWII. The stories of hauntings that dovetailed with the hotel’s history were both fascinating and unsettling.
As the night drew to a close, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of awe at the rich tapestry of history and hauntings that Glenwood Springs had to offer. The ghost tour was a thrilling departure from my usual nightlife escapades, yet it resonated with the same energy and excitement that I seek in my after-dark adventures.
