Scileppi's at the Old Stone Church
Scileppi's is a family-owned Italian restaurant operating since 2018 inside an 1888 rhyolite-stone Catholic church — Castle Rock's first — where the bar sits over what was once the church cemetery and regulars report a ghost girl in white haunting the old choir loft upstairs. The combination of genuinely good pasta, stained-glass ambiance, religiously-themed menu sections (including a two-top dubbed "the Confessional"), and well-documented paranormal lore makes it one of the most atmospheric dining rooms on the Front Range.
The move: Make a reservation for the upstairs "Last Supper" table in the former choir loft — the most-reported ghost hotspot — then linger over pasta and a bottle of wine while daring each other to watch the mirror at the base of the staircase; close the night with a drink at the bar built directly over the old cemetery and see if anything moves.
📍 Before you go You will find it in downtown Castle Rock — the unmistakable 1888 stone church on Third Street, a short detour off I-25 about halfway between Denver and Colorado Springs. The lot is small, but there's a free multilevel parking garage behind the building; street parking downtown fills up on weekends, so leave a little buffer. Reservations are the smart move, especially if you want a specific room — note the upstairs "Last Supper" table in the choir loft is a communal group seating, while the cozy two-top "Confessional" is the better bet for two. Hours shift seasonally, so confirm ahead. Pair it with a wander through downtown Castle Rock and a look up at the lit Star on the bluff.
