Spooky Walking Tour of Central City’s Historic People and Places
By David Josselyn
For several years, Central City and the Business Improvement District have put on a walking tour of historic places accompanied by disturbing stories from the past called Creepy Crawl. The Creepy Crawl takes people through the Teller House, Washington Hall, the Williams Stables, the Opera House, and other buildings which add to the ambiance of a good ghost story. Volunteers dress up according to the period of their story and tell the tales of shadowy figures, visitations from the dead, voices in the night, and noises that do not or should not happen. The event is often accompanied by a free microbrew (or root beer and cream soda for the lesser aged patrons) at the end of the tour to heighten the “spirits.”
