Make The Oxford your favorite haunt

The Oxford Hotel in Denver is celebrating its haunted past by offering an eerie “Paranormal Theater” package, featuring an exclusive performance by famed magician Erick Machamer.
Opened in 1891, The Oxford has purportedly been haunted since 1898, when it was the site of a murder-suicide in Room 320. The theater package will feature two entertaining evenings of magic, ghost stories and turn-of-the-century séance re-creations.

Machamer’s special show will feature stories of Denver’s most well-documented paranormal events, along with psychic demonstrations, interactive comedy and magic — all in the hotel that has been featured in TV shows such as A&E’s “Sightings,” as well as The New York Times and The Denver Post.

Your theater package starts at $250 and includes:

• Overnight accommodations for two in a guest room
• Two tickets to Machamer’s “Paranormal Theater — A Magic Show”
• Two signature Spirit-inis at the Cruise Room
• Complimentary valet parking

The Oxford Hotel is at 1600 17th St., in Denver’s lively LoDo District. The Oxford’s “Paranormal Theater” package is available Friday and Saturday. To book, call 1-303-628-5421 or visit www.theoxford hotel.com.
