Denver International Airport is making a public display out of its darkest and deepest supposed secrets. In large new signs plastered around the main terminal, the airport authority gives props to the aliens, Freemasons and Illuminati agents that are rumored to haunt the facility’s secret tunnels.

“New concessions? Or new conspiracies?” asks one of the posters, complete with pictures of the demonic-looking horse “Blucifer,” gargoyles, a UFO and assorted food items.

The graphics are plastered over temporary walls that surround construction zones in the airport. One hints that that the wall is hiding a “new Illuminati headquarters,” or a “remodeling of the lizard people’s lair” — or just new restaurants.

Emily Williams, a spokesperson for the airport, said the airport is officially embracing the conspiracy conjecture. (The Denver Post previously compiled a guide to the most popular theories.)

“I think that we recognize that conspiracy theories are part of our brand. It’s a fun way that we can engage with our passengers,” she said. The ads, which were created with agency Karsh Hagan, will stay up through the current phase of construction, which concludes next summer.

Len Horowitz, a retired dentist and naturopath who calls himself a “whistle-blower” for public health, said that the new marketing campaign is exactly what a global military syndicate hellbent on domination would do.

“It’s right in your face. They’ve taken all of the quirkiness of those who are considered foolish conspiracy theorists, and conspiracy theories, and blended it into their mixture of propaganda for damage control,” he said. “It’s new. It’s a very unique thing.”

Interestingly, the new marketing campaign doesn’t try very hard to defuse the theories. Instead, the posters direct visitors to a website that explains the lengthy construction process ahead. It also lays out the basics of the conspiracy theories, and says that “if that’s what you want to believe, we’re not going to hinder your imagination.”
