Colorado has always been a place of mystery. From the ghost towns left behind by gold rush miners to mountain passes that Indigenous peoples have called sacred for thousands of years, the Centennial State holds more stories than most people ever get to hear.
Creepy Colorado with Kai is a podcast that changes that — one spooky story at a time.
Hosted by 7-year-old Kai and her dad Matt, with Bernese Mountain Dog puppy Spooky riding shotgun, the show takes young listeners on investigations into Colorado's most mysterious legends, haunted locations, and paranormal folklore. Each episode balances real history and local lore with Kai's fearless curiosity — and Matt's very relatable tendency to be just a little bit scared.
Built for kids ages 6 to 12 who are obsessed with all things mysterious, Creepy Colorado with Kai proves that the most interesting stories aren't in textbooks — they're in your own backyard. Or your neighborhood park. Or that old trail nobody talks about after dark.
Stay curious. Stay brave. And stay creepy, Colorado.
Send us Fan Mail Denver. Capitol Hill. Halloween night. The Croke-Patterson Mansion was built in 1891 — and the man who built it never moved in. Over one hundred and thirty years later, the rocking chair still moves on its own, workers still won’t go to the third floor alone, and the radio DJ who worked the Halloween broadcast by herself one night packed up and never did it again. This week, Kai and Dad Matt head to one of the most haunted buildings in Denver for the Halloween Special — and M...

The Voices in Ward C — Investigating the Colorado State Hospital
Send us Fan Mail In 1879, Colorado opened its first psychiatric hospital in Pueblo — a self-contained campus that would eventually house thousands of patients. Some graves in its on-site cemetery carry names. Many carry only numbers. This week, Kai and Dad Matt head south to investigate the Colorado Mental Health Institute at Pueblo — and the security guard who heard voices coming from an empty ward in the middle of the night. Ward C. Room 14. The door was closed. And the voices were right on...

Don’t Look in the Mirror — Investigating Riverdale Road
Send us Fan Mail Just north of Denver, there is a road that Colorado drivers have been afraid of for decades. Riverdale Road runs through Adams County — long, flat, and dark, lined with ancient cottonwood trees that block out the sky and turn the night into a tunnel. People have been reporting strange things on this road for as long as anyone can remember. But one legend keeps coming back more than any other. A black Camaro with no headlights. It appears out of nowhere in your rearview ...

Something in the Trees — Colorado Bigfoot Sightings
Send us Fan Mail Colorado Bigfoot sightings have been reported for over a hundred years — and this week Kai and Dad Matt investigate the creature that has been moving through the Rocky Mountains long before anyone was looking for it.

From Rocky Mountain National Park to the San J...

The Harlem of the West — Investigating Five Points
Send us Fan Mail This week Kai and her dad Matt investigate one of the most important and most extraordinary neighborhoods in Denver history — and one that feels personal. Five Points was known as the Harlem of the West from the 1920s through the 1950s. During a time in America when segregation kept Black artists and residents out of most Denver venues and hotels, Five Points was a place that belonged to the community. A place where people could live, create, and celebrate freely. And a...

He Said Goodnight — Investigating Riverside Cemetery
Send us Fan Mail This week Kai and Dad Matt have a very special guest investigator joining the team for the first time — Papa Ne, Kai's grandfather, all the way from Texas. There's just one problem. Papa Ne doesn't believe in ghosts. Not even a little. Tonight Kai takes three generations into the investigation of Riverside Cemetery — Denver's oldest cemetery, established in 1876 and the final resting place of some of the most fascinating and colorful figures in Colorado history. From fr...

Creating the most famous traveling show on earth and performing ...

The Rocks Remember — Investigating Red Rocks
Send us Fan Mail This week Kai and Dad Matt drive 25 minutes west into the foothills to investigate one of the most extraordinary places in the entire country. Red Rocks Park and Amphitheater has been drawing people to its ancient red sandstone formations for centuries — but long before it was a world-famous concert venue, long before anyone carved seats into the earth between those massive walls of stone, the Ute and Arapaho peoples knew something about this place that most people are only j...

The Unsinkable — Investigating the Molly Brown House
Send us Fan Mail Today Kai and Dad Matt don't have to go far — they walk right down the street to investigate one of the most remarkable homes in Denver history. The Molly Brown House sits in Capitol Hill just a few blocks from home, and inside its walls lives the legacy of one of the most extraordinary women America has ever produced. Born with nothing in Missouri, Molly Brown moved to Colorado at eighteen, believed in a miner nobody else believed in, watched him strike gold, and became one ...

The Man, The Legend, The Stanley Hotel
Send us Fan Mail Today Kai and Dad Matt head north to Estes Park — right at the edge of Rocky Mountain National Park — to investigate one of the most famous haunted buildings in the entire United States. The Stanley Hotel was built in 1909 by a man named F.O. Stanley, an inventor who came to Colorado sick and dying and was saved by the mountain air. He loved this place so much he built a grand hotel to share it with the world. But the Stanley is famous for more than its history. Guests report...

The Girl Who Stayed — Investigating St. Elmo
Send us Fan Mail Today Kai and Dad Matt leave Denver and head deep into the Rocky Mountains to investigate one of Colorado's most famous ghost towns — St. Elmo. Tucked into Chalk Creek Canyon at ten thousand feet, St. Elmo was once a booming silver mining town of nearly two thousand people. Then the mines closed, the families packed up, and the town went quiet. Almost everyone left. But one woman — Annabelle Stark — refused to go. She kept the lights on, kept the doors open, and watched over ...

Episode 1: A Little Something About Cheesman Park
Send us Fan Mail In our very first episode, Kai and Dad Matt investigate something close to home — a neighborhood park right here in Colorado that locals say isn't quite what it seems. Floating lights near the tree line. Footsteps on the grass when nobody's there. A caretaker who some say never really left. Kai breaks down the lore, shares her three rules for safe investigating, and drops a Creepy Colorado fact that will make you look at the state completely differently. Plus — Spooky the dog...
