Ghosts lurking in mines, along abandoned railroad grades, in atmospheric graveyards and atop the windswept heights of Mosquito Pass are resurrected on the pages of Lost Between Heaven and Leadville. It is a chilling and sometimes humorous look at the phantoms and their otherworldly mischief that were so common in Leadville during the Victorian Era.
With this book as a guide, today’s visitor to the Cloud City can enjoy atmospheric visits to haunts such as State Street (West Second), The Boulevard, Oro City and the Mikado and Moyer mines. Here, many former residents met a sudden and emotional demise and their restless souls returned to set things right. This volume is required reading for anyone with a love of Leadville history or a “spiritual” interest in the uncanny side of Colorado’s Carbonate Camp.
