    Stanley Hotel

    This is the hotel where Stephen King got his inspiration for "The Shining" and is included in the movie. This hotel is in Estes Park and is featured in the show "Ghost Hunters" as well. Guests have claimed to see the piano playing itself, apparitions of people, and noises of children playing. 138 rooms on 38 acres leave a lot of space for some weird stuff to happen.

    Cripple Creek Jail Museum

    Take a trip back to the Wild West to the gold rush town of Cripple Creek. The population of this town grew from 15 to 50,000, which means the jailbirds did too.  You can even see police logs from the 1890s.
