The Leggetts weren’t sure what to make of stories of a buried baby, dogs leaping to their death from the upper windows, the ghost of a supposed suicide victim, or the dead cat the current owners just found, and Jordan says they found mystery in even the most basic history of the place. “All of Denver’s records on the house are contradictory, and a lot of the records have been shuffled around or changed,” she says. “It was far easier to find people who were freaked out by the place than it was to get a firm handle on exactly what the history of the house was. This mansion has learned how to keep some secrets.”
Haunted Denver begins tonight at 7:30 p.m. at the Tattered Cover LoDo, 1628 16th Street; visit www.tatteredcover.com for more in-formation.
