Colorado is a land of clear skies and soaring mountains. Ranchers work the dry land that opens on the Great Plains while, in the high country, skiers, mountain bikers and rock climbers have their fun.
Men first came to Colorado in great numbers in the gold-fevered boom of the mid-19th Century. The bust that soon followed left broken dreams and ghost towns throughout the state.
Over the short span of its history, Colorado has acquired more than its fair share of colorful ghost stories. In this collection, veteran ghost story hunter Dan Asfar explores such paranormal legends as:
· the headless highwayman said to haunt the passes of the South Park region and San Luis Valley
· the infamous Tommy Knockers, believed to be the spirits of dead miners, who terrorized nineteenth century gold miners in the Cripple Creek region
· the mysteriously well-preserved ghost town of St. Elmo, still standing a century after its last residents went mad
· and the haunted Stanley hotel in Estes Park, where Stephen King stayed while he wrote “The Shining.”
These tales and many more make this a must-read for fans of paranormal folklore in the Centennial state.
