Spooky and SO Interesting! - What an amazing tour! We learned so much history about Aspen, and the ghost stories were great. Dean is an excellent storyteller, and I found that the time flew by. He was mindful of safety as we crossed the street (it was dark) and engaged us in conversation as we walked. This was a great way to explore Aspen's downtown with a very knowledgeable local and learn more about the history of the town.

Every city has a few ghosts, but how do you know if you don’t have somebody tell you their stories?! - Great fun! Spooky history from the origin of Aspen to now. The guide made it fun and easy to see the city while learning about the history of Aspen’s ghosts
