Denver's Fairmount Cemetery serves as the final resting ground for at least one colorful character — Helen Peters Nosworthy, the woman who named the Ouija board. Born in 1851 in Baltimore, Md., Nosworthy died in Denver in 1940, and is buried with her husband and close friends in a family plot. It wasn't until 2013 that her fraught history with what were first known as talking boards was discovered, thanks to Robert Murch, a lifelong Ouija board afficionado.
