By day, Cherry Creek North is all boutiques, galleries and patios. Once the shops close, its leafy blocks between First and Third Avenue go quiet, and that's when this self-guided ghost hunt works best. The Questo app turns your phone into the hunt's headquarters. Ten ghosts haunt the neighborhood, none of them real, and each is stuck on how it died: a bride poisoned through her bouquet, a senator lured out on a rainy night, a professor killed by a shelf someone had loosened. You catch each one by solving its puzzle, and each catch gives you a clue. One ghost is lying, and naming it is how the game ends. The loop starts and finishes on Fillmore Street, covers about 1.2 miles and takes around 90 minutes. Go whenever suits you, on your own or with friends. Hints and 24/7 support are there if a puzzle has you stuck.

Step into one of Denver’s most haunted places on this chilling ghost tour of Cheesman Park. By day it looks like a peaceful 80-acre oasis of open lawns, mature trees, and a grand neoclassical marble pavilion with mountain views. After dark, the atmosphere changes completely. What most visitors never realize is that this beautiful park was built directly on top of Denver’s first cemetery. In the 1890s the city decided to convert the neglected graveyard into a public park. The work was stopped amid public scandal, the open graves were simply filled in, and the park was created on top of the dead. Today an estimated 2,000–3,000 bodies still rest beneath the grass and pathways. Exclusive to our tours, every guest receives access to our proprietary ghost-hunting app featuring real-time EMF detection, EVP recording, and thermal/night-vision camera tools. Use these professional-grade features on-site as you investigate the park yourself. Book today!
