The story
The Oxford Hotel opened in 1891 in what is now Denver's LoDo historic district, the city's first grand hotel, designed by Frank Edbrooke half a block from Union Station and restored in modern times with its silver chandeliers, marble and antiques intact; its Cruise Room bar, opened the day after Prohibition ended, is an Art Deco landmark in its own right. The hotel's haunted reputation is among the best known in Colorado. The most repeated story concerns room 320, where a fatal incident involving a woman and her lover is said in legend to have occurred early in the 20th century, and where male guests have reportedly felt an unwelcome presence; the details are folklore and should be handled with care. Staff and guests also describe a spectral postman in the Cruise Room, figures in period dress, lights and objects behaving oddly and footsteps in empty corridors. These accounts should be presented as guest reports and legend rather than proven phenomena. Current room and booking details should be confirmed from the official site before publishing.
