Main Floor DFM

A number of paranormal claims come from this facility, once Denver’s main firehouse. A small closet in the basement is reputedly haunted by a miner named Caleb, who has a thing about not leaving the door open. We captured an interesting EVP in there when we first investigated a couple of years ago, you can hear it on our Locations page here.  The faucets in the men’s bathroom upstairs  have a way of turning themselves on and off, and there are apparently the spirits of two children rescued from a Denver fire back in the 20′s who were killed when the engine they were riding on turned over in an accident. We may have caught them in a prior investigation - again, see the Locations page for that EVP.

The downstairs office is reputedly haunted by Tom, the DFD’s last horse wrangler – his presence has been evidenced by various forms of mischief on and around the desk. I decided to concentrate my efforts on this office on this investigation, mostly because I wanted to go after some EVP evidence.

One interesting bit, located below. About 11 seconds in length, there is very faint male whisper at about 6 seconds into clip, lasting until I start my sentence about sensing some reluctance on Tom’s part to reveal himself. Sharon and I were the only ones in the room – there were voices outside the office, but there was a distinct echo/reverb effect to those voices, and this sounds very much like an in-room whisper. We are unable to make out what it seems to say.

We have yet to finish all the video, we’ll post if we find anything extraordinary. This investigation was conducted with our friends at Full Moon, and we had a pretty full roster that night. The DFM has alot of wood floors and glass, so the voices and footsteps of other investigators make capturing audio evidence a real challenge.

This is a great facility with helpful and friendly staff, and we look forward to a return trip soon.

I concentrated most of my time in the downstairs office – we’ll see if the horse guy (Tom) made an appearance. Update soon, promise.
