My mom works at the union printers home on pikes peak ave and union blvd in Colo springs, Colo. the building is over 100 years old and used to be a tuberculosis hospital. She has worked there for 9 years and has herd a lot of first hand stories from other employees about a older man who is burned and wears a top hat. Some employees have actually quit after encountering this soul. There are 3 buildings on the site and only one is used today as a nursing home. There are also a series of tunnels under the grounds that are said to be haunted.

A month before Penrose Hospital (on academy) was shut down, I gave birth to my son there. I was relocated to another end of the hospital because they needed to make room for new expectant mothers. My mother had left the room to go the bathroom and I was woken up by a voice calling my name. At first I thought I was dreaming but the voice continued to call my name (about 3 times). I sat up to check on the baby and then my mom walked into the room and the voices stopped. I asked my mom if she had heard anything but she said, “no…I was in the bathroom.” I truly believe there was something in my room that night.

That’s funny, Virginia that you mentioned the footsteps in the basement by the morgue at Penrose Main. When I worked there, I often had to open the morgue for the people bringing the bodies down from the upper floors. I never felt fear in the basement, but I often felt a presence & often heard the sound of footsteps echoing off the walls. I don’t know if you’ve ever been down there, but there are a number of hallways (or at least there were, before all the construction)coming off the main hall by the morgue. Coming from the Silver Bullet (the elevator from the ER) if you go straight instead of turning left to the morgue, there is a hallway to your immediate right. If you go around that corner you come to 2 other hallways. One goes to the Webb Library and the other to some old rooms that were used for storage, dictation & all kinds of other things. Anyway, I used to patrol that area for the occasional transient & I would often feel something brush past me as I rounded the corner towards the library. It felt like a cloak or something as someone rushed by. It was an eerie feeling, but not frightening. I only felt fearful once at St. Francis in the basement in one of the old tunnels. But that was the only time. I have always felt that most of the entities in those hospitals were kind & benenvolent or lost & hurting – never evil.

my best friends mom used to work there and she said creepy things used to happen in the basement where the morgue is. She said supposedly when they were putting down the foundation for the hospital one of the nuns fell into the cement and they couldn’t pull her out so the nun ended up dying there. She recalls running out of the basement everytime always saying she heard foot steps walking with hers and would hear the occasional slap of a ruler.

That is kind of funny being locked out by a spirit! Maybe it wasn’t a ghost. Something might of locked the door.

MeowMix is right about the Security. Both Penrose Main and St. Francis are real sticklers about the safety, security and privacy of the patients, staff and visitors to ANY of their facilities.
