Join local author Erin Taylor to journey into Colorado’s Wild West past through chilling tales from some of the mining towns where boom met bust. From Cripple Creek’s haunted hotels to Leadville’s legendary mines, explore ghost stories and legends that still linger in the Rockies. Taylor's newest book, Haunted Leadville, will be available for purchase after the event. This program is being offered as a part of the Winter Adult Reading Program and also offered to commemorate the Colorado 150 and US 250 anniversaries.
