"Cheesman Park, this now beautiful park hides a chapter of Denver history filled with scandal, outrage, and horror. This dark chapter of history created what is now considered one of the most haunted places in Denver.

Why would this beautiful place be considered haunted? The answer is simple. This beautiful park is sitting atop the old City Cemetery. But the story of this park it goes far beyond just building a park over old cemetery ground and moving a few graves. It involved the desecration of thousands of graves without regard for those that rested there. It was a scandal that outraged the citizens of Denver, and turned this now peaceful place into a center of haunted activity that continues to this day."
