Is this a reference to yesterday's surprise Trump victory in the presidential race? It would certainly be appropriate, but in this case I am referring to an article I recently read about Denver's haunted buildings. Evidently, the old Arapahoe County Courthouse was rumored to be the location of the gates of hell. When prison guards took the elevator to the building's basement, they would see deceased convicts walking toward the entrance to hell. Understandably, a lot of these guards were not too crazy about working there. The building was (very understandably) torn down years ago, and a Sheraton Hotel is now located on that site along Denver's 16th Street Mall. The hotel is now guarded by the ballerina statues seen in the photograph above, festively dressed for fall in Denver. And no, there have been no paranormal sightings in the Sheraton's basement. However, I would strongly recommend avoiding going down there after dark, just to be on the safe side.
