IMPORTANT NOTE: These tickets sell out FAST... so get yours now!

Denver Botanic Gardens is once again hosting its annual "Ghosts in the Gardens" tour! Once a year right around Halloween the Gardens agrees to open up its 'ghostly gates' and give a spine-tingling tour that is sure to make even the most skeptical person a true believer. For those of you who do not know the history of the gardens, it was built directly on top the old Denver cemetery, and many of the bodies were not moved during its construction. The Waring House will also be opened up to the public during this tour as well. It is said that the home is so haunted that the original owner moved out and donated it to the Gardens back in the 50's, and she never moved back in. The house has many creepy stories and used to be used as an event center, but so many strange happening occured there that they closed it up permanently and only use it as part-time offices. The Waring House is ONLY open to the public during the Ghosts in the Gardens Tour, so this would be your one chance this year to visit!

Here are the details from the website:

Denver Botanic Gardens dares you to join us after dark at our annual Ghosts in the Gardens Tours! Our guides will lead you through one of three separate ghost tours of your choosing. Each tour guide will tell haunting stories of the Gardens’ one hundred years of history and illustrate points of interest inside and outside what used to be called “The Boneyard”. Each tour will be different and subjects will include actual staff ghost stories, real overnight security staff ghost encounters, and intriguing history (including access to the Waring House Mansion that is not open to the public). So conjure your courage and capture your fear as you walk our dark paths after hours and dare the night, here at Denver Botanic Gardens' Ghosts in the Gardens Tours.
