‘Thrillist’ says this is the most haunted spot in the state of Colorado

Halloween is right around the corner, and there are plenty of ways to get your spook on, but if you want the best chance to see a real ghost, this may be it…

“Thrillist” put together a list of the most haunted places in every state, and Colorado’s is probably nor surprising to anyone… The Stanley Hotel in Estes Park.

The website had this to say about the legendary spooky hotel:

If you’ve read or seen The Shining, you’ll know the feel of this often snowed-on hotel: It’s the location Stephen King based his Overlook Hotel upon. It may not look like the film—unless you watched the 1990s made-for-TV movie version, which was actually shot here—but it holds rumors of haunted rooms and service workers who still wander the grounds. Be warned: There’s a much more sinister danger. The hotel has such an extreme elevation that just walking to your room can drain you, so one stiff drink may have you seeing ghosts.

You can check out their full list of haunted places in every state here.
