## Chapter 1: The Arrival

The Hotel Colorado sat ominously at the heart of Glenwood Springs, its ancient architecture guarding the secrets of a hundred years of tragedy, triumph, and tantalizingly bone-chilling tales. Some might call it imposing with its darkened windows and grandiose exterior, but the locals knew it better as Colorado’s Grand Dame, the haunted gem of the mountain town. It was as much a testament to Colorado’s past as it was a playground for its spectral residents.

A shroud of foreboding draped over the hotel, lurking in the age-old archways, and whispered secrets from its Victorian wallpaper. Every staircase landed on questions rather than answers, and each chamber held echoes of unfortunate events. People who came to stay would frequently comment on the unnatural chill that pervaded each corridor and room — an icy touch reaching out from an unseen world.

## Chapter 2: The Chambermaid

A particularly compelling story was that of the chambermaid. She was reported as a recurrent apparition, a remnant of the Victorian era forever imprisoned within the hotel’s darkened halls. It was said that she was once a radiant girl who, tragically, met her premature demise under within the hotel’s cold stone walls. From then on, her ethereal form was often spotted meandering the shadowed corridors, the echoes of her melancholic sighs a chilling lullaby for the guests.

Guests who had seen her reported a woman of otherworldly beauty sporting a traditional maid’s outfit strikingly stark against her pallor. And amongst numerous accounts, the unanimous narrative reported a terrible sadness that seemed carved into her ethereal features, in her spectral eyes that held an eternal longing — one for life that had been cruelly snatched away from her.

## Chapter 3: The Playful Spirit

Then there was the mirthful spirit of a little girl, a ghostly presence so tangible that her gleeful laughter often echoed through the hallways, much to the astonishment of the hotel’s living inhabitants. The innocent symmetry of her mirth often painted the night with drafts of silence and discomfort.

Others spoke of the sound of a ball bouncing against the chapel’s stone floors, resounding through the darkness. It was the innocent yet eerie playing of a disembodied child, the noise often a ghostly serenade that lured the sleepless away from their rooms, weaving through the antique halls, seeking a game that would never show its players. Its melody was the stark contrast to the dread that the hotel exuded, and it created a dissonance so palpable that it rang louder than the laughter itself.
