At The White House Bed and Breakfast

The 1902 house previously served as a hospital, a day-care and a hotel before suffering fire damage in the 1980’s. The house has been restored to its former grandeur, but there have been many sightings of the gentle apparition of a young woman. She often stands at the ends of guests beds or chat’s to guest’s children, leading many to believe she was the owner of the day care who died long ago.

Velasco Pueblo

This house dates back to the 1850’s, and was renovated a number of times before the death of Senor Velasco. The house began to fall into gradual disrepair, until it was finally restored by owners, who were the first to note the presence of a ghost. While working in the bedroom of the fire-damaged house, an owner saw the apparition of the torso and head of man with a moustache staring at him, before it disappeared. It was later confirmed to be that of Senor Velasco, who has been seen on several other occasions during the renovation process. Furniture and objects are moved around the house by an unseen entity.

Mile High Grill and Inn - Clinkscale Building

The 1899 eight bedroom historic inn is haunted by numerous apparitions. The Clinkscale Building was previously a brothel, which was burnt down in a fire, and the inn was built directly over the top of the old building. The ghost of Madam Jennie Banter moves furniture around and helps around the inn. Her cat has also been sighted on several occasions, and they are both known as friendly presences within the hotel. The ghost of an elderly man in late nineteenth-century work clothes has been seen looking out into the street from both outside and inside the inn, but he is regarded as a friendly presence also. The ghost of a shadowy, unfriendly presence has been seen in the restaurant and in the rooms of guests. Strange music, voices and disembodied footsteps have also been heard.

The Allen House

This Gothic mansion in Monticello was built in 1900 at the turn of the century, and has many recorded instances of hauntings reported. The main ghost, however, is that of a young woman who haunts the upper and lower floors of the mansion. The ghost roams around the house, often standing behind people before vanishing and reappearing elsewhere in the house. Footsteps and voices come out of the fourth floor, which has been closed off. Photos have shown an apparition peering out of a window on the third floor, but his presence can not be attributed to that of the young woman.

Grant-Humphreys Mansion

The palace is haunted by five entities, with the identity of only one apparition known. This is the spectre of Albert Humphreys, who died in a suspicious shooting accident on the third floor, and still roams the hallways of the house. The four other entities reported in the mansions are probably restless spirits from the Mount Prospect Graveyard, which was unearthed and hastily reburied some time ago.
