THE STORY
Reported Haunting
The Chalmers Mansion near Ebbetts Pass is said to be haunted by the spirit of Antoinette "Nettie" Chalmers, the wife of the home's 19th-century owner. Local legends claim her grieving ghost wanders the isolated mountain road, forever watching for her husband, who abandoned the family after his silver-mining venture failed. The eerie atmosphere is amplified by a small pioneer cemetery near the house that contains the graves of Nettie's children, including a son who reportedly drowned in the nearby creek. Visitors have described sudden cold spots, the feeling of being watched, and strange shadows moving near the property's historic brick chimney.
