About the author
Stephanie Waters Moding writes regional ghost-lore books published by History Press, covering Colorado Springs and the surrounding Pikes Peak region. Her titles, including Ghosts of Colorado Springs and Pikes Peak and Haunted Manitou Springs, gather local legends tied to specific landmarks, among them Pikes Peak, Cheyenne Mountain, and the Old North End neighborhood, along with Native American stories associated with the area's cliff dwellings. As with her related Manitou Springs title, the writing centers on the town's reputation as a spiritual hot spot, including the recurring figure of Emma Crawford. These are place-based collections of ghost stories and local history rather than instructional or theoretical works, aimed at readers interested in regional folklore and haunted-history tourism in the Colorado Springs area.
