Overview

This tour takes us through the streets surrounding the State Capitol, where the Who's Who of Denver's society built their mansions and their stories were made. We shall walk Millionaire's Row, visit Molly Brown, and even the two "most haunted" homes in Denver and you shall hear all of the dark, delicious tales of those that lived here and those that still remain... For years I worked at Fairmount Cemetery. I managed the flower shop which was then located in the building that used to be the old train station which brought the mourners there. These affluent Denverites left large amounts of money in endowments for perpetual care of their graves. I heard the stories and the history of all these people. I feel like I know them. Please join me as I walk the streets where they lived. Let me tell you all the history I have learned and all the juicy stories I have heard… And in the "spirit" of the tour, we are always costumed!

Meeting points

In front of the Crawford Hill Mansion, Look for the guide in Vintage costume!

  • N/A

    Millionaire's Row, this is the most haunted street in Denver. These historic mansions act as a facade for restless spirits. In the late 1800’s the wealthy of Denver flocked to “Millionaires Row” on “Quality Hill,” where they outdid each other, constructing luxurious mansions. Architecture that incorporated a variety of classical styles was noted for its flamboyance became known as the “Denver Style.” Each owner whimsically added turrets, spires and porches and the finished home rarely bore any resemblance to the original design. We will look at these beautiful homes that still remain and you will hear the history and stories associated with them and the echoes of the spirits that are said to dwell here.

    This beautiful, historic property is a photographer's dream. Illuminated lighting gives this place an ethereal feel.

    If these walls could talk...this place was the epicenter of Denver's former bohemian period. This former hotel became the playground of the Hollywood elite, as well as eccentric poets, such as Jack Kerouac (famous writer of the book and movie, entitled "On the Road"), Neil Cassidy, Allen Ginsberg, and James Burroughs. Stories of haunts are often talked about, by former and current employees of the notorious Denver bar, Charlie Brown's, which is located on property. Since 1928 this bar has virtually stayed the same. This is one of the favorite stops for the likes of Bill Murray and Tony Bennett. I shall tell you all the history and stories about this place and our tour ends here... may I suggest a cocktail in the haunted bar...

High school girlfriends all from Denver went on a fantastic tour of old Denver! Fantastic tour guide who was so full of knowledge, history and fun facts none of us knew about our city! Madam DeBois is a must!

Walk on the haunted side

Published on Sep, 2024

My husband and I enjoyed our walk. Jules shared many stories about the residents that still roam their homes. The history of Denver came alive with the details of the past. Jules was well informed and at the end we enjoyed a fancy drink at the 12 Spirit Bar at the Patterson home. Great tour!

Had a lovely time. Saw...
