Past employees have said thet hear mysterious noises, and footsteps, and see ghosts. A ghost has been seen in room 407 in the window, as well as rooms 217 and 401. In room 407, it is believed to be haunted by a person known as Lord Dunraven. He was run out of town by people because he was trying to con them out of land and money. He mostly stands in the corner of the room near the bathroom. The elevator also constantly runs, and makes noise, especially at 2am
-The Old Ft. Carson Hospital/Mental Clinic: the buildings in the area were built in 1941, post-Pearl Harbor. A lot of German and Italian POWs were kept here. There is an intricate system of tunnels beneath the hospital connecting the buildings, and one night an MP investigated na open door to one of the tunnels only to find a whole bunch of kids toys, a small chair and table and other assorted children's items. Also seen were words painted on the walls with no visible way to paint them. On certain nights when the weather is cold, strange noises are heard. Movement is heard throughout the building, as if furniture ie being moved, repeated banging noises, faces being seen peering throught the windows. An older American Indian woman says the building was built directly over the Trail of Tears. There is also a low lying field nearby where nothing will stand, and attempts at construction have been unsuccessful.

-Sand Creek: this is the site of the Sand Creek Massacre. On Nov. 29, 1864, over 200 Native American men, women and children were brutally slaughtered by Col. John Chivington. Him and his men hunted the Indians along the Sand Creek riverbed and in many cases, they tried to find refuge in the small caves. The Indians were used as target practice, mutilated and before death, had body parts amputated as use for trophies. On the anniversary of the massacre, campers have seen ghosts of the Native Americans going down to the Sand Creek bed where they died, appearing for a minute or 2 and then disappearing into the soil.
