When it comes to overnight accommodations, there is no place quite like a historic hotel, as they convey both a charm and uniqueness that you will not find with modern-day chains. However, with this quaintness often comes a sense of eeriness that cannot be explained, like that of the Black Monarch: one of the most haunted hotels in Colorado:

Located in Victor, the Black Monarch Hotel boasts "rich history" and "modern comfort" with an eerie twist.

Tucked away in the heart of Colorado Gold Rush country, the Black Monarch was first built in the late 1800s and has served as everything from a casino to a brothel to a saloon and, finally, a hotel, which has brought in its fair share of colorful (and sometimes shady) characters.

When you visit the Black Monarch (and the town of Victor in general), keep your eyes and ears open, as you may see shadowy figures and moving objects and hear the sounds of screams and other bone-chilling noises.
