Did you know that Manitou’s famous Emma Crawford has now gone electronic? Yes, it’s true! New for 2025, the Manitou Springs Heritage Museum is offering a downloadable version of our popular Emma Crawford history book through Amazon.

Emma Crawford was a celebrated concert pianist but has been much more celebrated in her death than in her life. This 23-page booklet tells the stories of her life, her love, her death, her hauntings and her coffin sliding down Red Mountain. It was from this unfortunate coffin sliding incident that the Emma Crawford Coffin Races were born!
