The Legend of the Brown Palace Hotel
The haunted history of this hotel is a long and rich one. It is understood that up until around the year of 1985, there were several people who made this luxurious home their permanent residence. This was made possible by the apartments that were constructed in the top area of the structure. There was one resident, in particular, that seems to draw on the attention of historians and those that are interested in the haunted history. This resident was a lady by the name of Louise Crawford Hill. Louise was a largely influencing person when it came to the society of Denver in the fifteen years that she lived in the Brown Palace.
Unfortunately, Louise suffered from tremendous heartbreak in her life. As the hotel gained popularity, historical tours were given within the structure. When the tours reached the room of 904 where Louise resided, the stories of her devastation were expressed. Shortly after this, despite the fact that there were no lines for a telephone in the room, the individual who worked as the operator in the building began to receive calls that were filled with nothing but static from the room. It is believed that Louise’s sadness was ignited by the historical tours and that she still resides in the building.
At one point in the hotel’s history, there was a room where train tickets were sold to the public who desired to travel from one location to another. In many instances, the conductors of the trains that were served here would frequent the ticket office. There have been numerous stories revealed about visions of spirits that appeared to be railroad conductors walking straight through the walls of the room that sold the tickets. In addition to this, a visitor or an employee of the hotel may catch images of individuals in old time attire that are carrying luggage and appear to be traveling.
There is a room in the hotel that was once referred to as the “ San Marco Room ”. It was a room that was known to provide entertaining social gatherings and music to guests. Eventually, it was transitioned into a hotel dining room. In today’s world, it is referred to as “Ellyngton’s”. Many bands performed in this room throughout the history of the structure, and it appears that one band has elected to stay. When going through the building one evening, an employee identified noises emerging from the room. He went to inspect it, ensuring that everything was in order. What he discovered was a musical band that appeared to be practicing an assortment of musical pieces. While a bit surprised by his findings, he calmly informed the band that they had to dismiss themselves from the location. They appeared to be solid and real, and not ghosts. The spirits then informed him that they lived at the establishment. Shortly thereafter, they simply vanished!

"Poltergeist – The Trailer Is HERE!"
As the original POLTERGEIST was a major influence for us, we were very pessimistic when we first heard about this summer's 3D reboot. After watching the trailer, however, we have to admit we're more than a little excited and hope it does not disappoint. Either way, we'll be there opening night! Will you?

CLOSING THE SEASON
As many paranormal researchers know, business tends to die down after Halloween, when it gets too cold to be out in drafty buildings or outdoors after dark. This doesn't mean paranormal phenomena decreases. As we move into further darkness the veil remains just as thin, straight into the holidays when departed ancestors are hearing their names being spoken during holiday dinners or seeing the spirit plates left out for them. Even the Christmas carol "It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year" references the "scary ghost stories" told during this season when everything in nature appears to die or head into a long sleep.
Most paranormal groups would agree that ghost hunting is a full-time occupation and despite a decrease in events and invitations, they will remain active themselves year-round. Such is the case with us. As Christopher works in retail, his focus is on the heavy sales occurring during this time, leading up to Black Friday and on through Christmas. After inventory and reflection on the year behind, he shifts gears as his dreamtime becomes more vivid and preminatory. From that period onward, we have officially clocked back in. Until then, please look to our Facebook page for the latest updates and news reports. It's been a very rewarding season and we remain grateful for your support and interest!
With love,

Throwback Thursday!
This is an image we took a few years back at one of our favorite haunted hotspots. After we enlarged the orb and ran it through an infrared filter we noticed some interesting details.
On a UFO skywatch once with author Christopher O'Brien, Christopher was told to suspend any assumptions he had about the paranormal and to view things with a higher perception.
He was told to try imagining these unidentified lights in the sky as not simply otherworldly craft but perhaps a point of light connecting our dimension to another.
Perhaps this is what we're seeing within this orb, simply a hole between dimensions where the faces of two beings are looking right back at us.
For more of our photos, go to our Postcards From The Paranormal photo gallery page.

I have always been influenced by great detectives in print ( Batman, for example ), and in cinema, those in search of hidden knowledge ( Clarice Starling, Scully & Mulder, D'anna Biers, Indiana Jones ).
The demonization of "that which is hidden" and other forbidden fruit only made me even more curious to know exactly why some things weren't so easily revealed.
As a child it began with Christmas presents and dark cellars and as I matured it became ancient knowledge and haunted houses ( more dark cellars ).
I love a good mystery, especially those that lie outside the boundary of the easily explicable - the supernatural. Thankfully, pioneers like demonologists Ed & Lorraine Warren had published plenty for me to read in my elementary school library. Believe it or not, my school featured a pretty large occult section back in the early 80's and I took full advantage of it.
One of my favorite quotes comes from a novel and miniseries by Shirley MacLaine: "In order to get to the fruit of the tree, you have to go out on a limb."
James and I, with musician and investigator Brett Leal, did so last summer, during a late-night skywatch with Christopher O'Brien near the Great Sand Dunes National Park. My idea was that we had to offer our fear to the night before we could glimpse any of it's secrets. So, sacrificing our fear, we took a dangerous night hike up through Zapata Falls.
Walking up the rocky trail with unseen creatures and who knows what else making noises in the darkness consuming us, we at last entered a cavernous space of rock. From here we waded through the icy waters of the Rio Grande, over slippery moss-covered stones, with the deafening roar from the 25-foot waterfall at the end of the crevasse.
It was like walking into the mouth of an angry giant, bellowing as our flashlight lit up the powerful falls above us. Upon returning I glanced back at the mountainous terrain we had just left. Did I just see a red spark shooting up out of the mountains? Another observer also claimed to have, then Christopher O'Brien mentioned that people had seen the sky above Zapata full of strange, bobbing red orbs.
From the red Maltese crosses the conquistadors traveling through this area marked their buried treasure with, to the unidentified craft regularly spotted in the the San Luis skies, to the unknown lifeforms known as "prairie lizards" spotted phasing in and out of this dimension on the roads here, this is a place of great mystery.
I am grateful to have stood next to so many courageous souls over the years who have ventured into the darkness and emerged with great treasures of wisdom. I wish you the same bravery in your own pursuits and hope you come back with only the sweetest fruit.
Namaste,
- Christopher

I have always been influenced by great detectives in print ( Batman, for example ), and in cinema, those in search of hidden knowledge ( Clarice Starling, Scully & Mulder, D'anna Biers, Indiana Jones ).
The demonization of "that which is hidden" and other forbidden fruit only made me even more curious to know exactly why some things weren't so easily revealed.
As a child it began with Christmas presents and dark cellars and as I matured it became ancient knowledge and haunted houses ( more dark cellars ).
I love a good mystery, especially those that lie outside the boundary of the easily explicable - the supernatural. Thankfully, pioneers like demonologists Ed & Lorraine Warren had published plenty for me to read in my elementary school library. Believe it or not, my school featured a pretty large occult section back in the early 80's and I took full advantage of it.
One of my favorite quotes comes from a novel and miniseries by Shirley MacLaine: "In order to get to the fruit of the tree, you have to go out on a limb."
James and I, with musician and investigator Brett Leal, did so last summer, during a late-night skywatch with Christopher O'Brien near the Great Sand Dunes National Park. My idea was that we had to offer our fear to the night before we could glimpse any of it's secrets. So, sacrificing our fear, we took a dangerous night hike up through Zapata Falls.
Walking up the rocky trail with unseen creatures and who knows what else making noises in the darkness consuming us, we at last entered a cavernous space of rock. From here we waded through the icy waters of the Rio Grande, over slippery moss-covered stones, with the deafening roar from the 25-foot waterfall at the end of the crevasse.
It was like walking into the mouth of an angry giant, bellowing as our flashlight lit up the powerful falls above us. Upon returning I glanced back at the mountainous terrain we had just left. Did I just see a red spark shooting up out of the mountains? Another observer also claimed to have, then Christopher O'Brien mentioned that people had seen the sky above Zapata full of strange, bobbing red orbs.
From the red Maltese crosses the conquistadors traveling through this area marked their buried treasure with, to the unidentified craft regularly spotted in the the San Luis skies, to the unknown lifeforms known as "prairie lizards" spotted phasing in and out of this dimension on the roads here, this is a place of great mystery.
I am grateful to have stood next to so many courageous souls over the years who have ventured into the darkness and emerged with great treasures of wisdom. I wish you the same bravery in your own pursuits and hope you come back with only the sweetest fruit.
Namaste,
- Christopher

Poltergeist remains one of the most memorable films concerning paranormal phenomena ever released. It is a favorite of most of us paranormal investigators and one of the reasons we still do what we do. Who didn't dream of joining Dr. Lesh, Ryan, Marty and Tangina back in the 80's ( and still do )?
The Poltergeist remake will be released next Valentine's Day ( in 3D, no less ), and will most likely come up far short compared to our beloved original. Until our movie review, we're loving these absolutely absurd vintage foreign movie posters, most likely created by artists who had no idea why these movies were about.
"All are welcome!"

The SpiritChasers would like to wish a very Happy Birthday to Leonard Nimoy!
Nimoy's "In Search Of" program premiered in 1977 when Christopher was just 4 years old. Although he didn't understand all of the mysteries the show investigated, each episode both scared and fascinated him.
He watched them religiously, humming that odd, eerie 70's theme song, enraptured with Leonard's creepy narration, developing an early appreciation for documentaries and documenting the human condition and our responses to the miraculous.
The program inspired Christopher to seek out the great unknown himself, wherever or however he could, and when the program ended after 6 seasons he began watching Arthur C. Clarke's Mysterious World, paranormal episodes of That's Incredible! and P.M. Magazine. Later he followed Unsolved Mysteries, Sightings, The Scariest Places On Earth...but nothing affected him like In Search Of, and eventually he would meet others who shared the same passion.
Christopher founded his own paranormal investigation team several years ago and they have been very successful seeking out the legends they have discovered here.
He was elated when the In Search Of Complete Series was released on DVD last year, renewing and reinspiring him all over again.
Thank you for such exciting and influential cinema, Mr. Nimoy
Yours truly,
- The SpiritChasers

Fellow ghost hunters might want to know that this calendar has so far proved invaluable to our team. Apart from keeping track of upcoming investigations and collaboratory events, each month's haunted castle features not only a brief history of the locale, but a few of its ghost stories as well. What we'd really love to see, however, would be an America's Scariest Places Calendar, something featuring Waverly Hills Sanatorium, the Queen Mary, Stanley Hotel and others. What locations would be in your scariest places calendar? ( Ours would be Devil's Bridge, in the Secrurity / Widefield area - for more info about this grim and perplexing spot, pick up a copy of Stephanie Waters' Ghosts Of Colorado Springs And Pikes Peak )!
Happy holidays!

"Ghost Hunters Burn Down Historic Mansion"
The following article is a clear example of exactly why many paranormal investigators have such a bad name. It also mentions other tragedies related to ghost hunting.
Don't get us started about bloody amateur "investigators" popping up right and left with zero tact or respect for their environment, their associates, the paranormal community in general and the spirits behind the phenomenon.
Even the smallest transgressions in this field of research have a way of spreading. People have done irreparable damage to their reputations without even realizing it and yet still claim to be "professionals".
If you are damaging property, challenging and fighting with other paranormal teams, destroying the credibility of other colleagues or just being all-around insecure divas you are not "professional" and are only adding to the sideshow that has become paranormal research.

Our presentation the night before Halloween at the Celebration Metaphysical Center was immensely fun and we look forward to doing more in the future. 2 hours was not near enough time to share everything we wanted to but we're hoping everyone left with the sense of wonder, awe and the appreciation and preservation of mystery that inspires everything we do. Huge thanks to all of our guests and to those of you who shared your own stories with us.
On Halloween we also joined Greg Moore, the Denver Post's Editor-In-Chief, for an Editor's Desk Halloween podcast, which you can view here:
http://blogs.denverpost.com/editorsdesk/
Greg was warm, humorous and genuinely interested, we couldn't have asked for a better host and we are grateful for the opportunity. The Denver Post offices were amazing as were the many Pulitzers they have been awarded over the years, and our cameraman, Craig Walker, was in fact awarded two of his own.

ON THE RADIO
Special thanks to Bellaire, Ohio's Witchtalk Radio for having us on the air! Christopher met Kristin Lee, one of it's founders, while in L.A. last year filming his first interview for the Biography Channel's ( now the Lifetime Movie Network's ) popular program My Ghost Story. We also had a blast on Kilo Radio ( http://www.kilo943.com/music/listen-live/ ) with author Stephanie Waters. We'll be gearing up for more shows in the near future, so stay tuned!
Christopher has been in the paranormal field most of his years. Before founding The SpiritChasers he was greatly involved in the metaphysical community, managing Colorado Springs' largest conscious living store and being a continuous presence working several of the popular metaphysical fairs.
With his spiritual and esoteric knowledge, witty mind and abstract humor, he has made a very popular guest on the many radio programs he has been invited on.

Prom Night Trading Cards
As giddily announced earlier in the summer, Synapse Films is currently at work restoring 1980's brilliant PROM NIGHT, which stars our favorite scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis. The original negative is reportedly in poor condition and is currently at the Synapse lab undergoing splicing fixes and repairs.
While we're anxiously awaiting the results in full 1080p ( and getting ready to set up our yearly Jamie Lee Curtis shrine for the Halloween season ), Christopher has taken it upon himself to create an amusing set of virtual PROM NIGHT Trading Cards.
These may only be appreciated and understood by true PROM NIGHT fans, who might further enhance their viewing experience with the rare Japanese PROM NIGHT soundtrack playing in
the background.
