(CNN) — After years of speculation by conspiracy theorists, officials at the Denver International Airport in Colorado have finally admitted that something's going on. The 32-foot-tall "Mustang" statue rears up by the road leading to Denver International Airport Courtesy Denver International Airport It's all very suspicious to some people, who are convinced the airport is part of a plot by the Freemasons, or the Illuminati, or a colony of lizard people. The airport is doing a $650 to $770 million renovation to its Great Hall and has put up temporary walls to hide the mess (or at least that's what they want you to think). They decided to have some fun with the rumors. They put up huge signs featuring gargoyles and space aliens. One poster asks "What's happening behind this wall?" The airport also created the "Den Files" website that highlights some of the wildest theories that date back to the very beginning of DIA's history. It says the airport was dedicated on March 19, 1994, and if you add the numbers 1+9+1+9+9+4 you get 33. Den Files says that is the highest level that one can obtain in the Freemasonry.

This has fueled rumors that the airport is a headquarters for the world's elite, or possibly a cabal of lizard people, to ride out the end of the world, according to the site. Some of the airport's murals are also filled with apocalyptic symbolism. The mural "Children of the World Dream of Peace" features some violent imagery, but celebrates peace triumphing over war.

Travelers will get to see what's really behind all the walls in late 2021, when the final phase of the project is scheduled to be completed.<doc-sep>The Illuminati lizard people in DIA's secret underground tunnels did a great job with their new marketing campaign. You have to give Denver International Airport credit … the folks there have really taken in stride the fact its Wikipedia page has a section devoted to conspiracy theories. OR HAVE THEY? ! Seriously though … the airport launched a new marketing campaign on Friday based around the huge Great Hall remodel taking place. OR IS IT REALLY A CODE? ! The billboards are placed on sections of the airport that have been sectioned off for the renovation, which will bring new businesses to the Great Hall and move the security checkpoints out of the famous white tented area. OR WILL IT? ! The billboards feature a lizard person, those famous underground tunnels, Blucifer with his laser eyes, aliens, the Illuminati and freemasons. Obviously, it’s all a clever joke. OR IS IT? ! “Though we aren’t expanding the bunkers or revamping the lizard lair with this project, we wanted to have some fun with our construction messaging and embrace the conspiracy theories of DEN,” airport spokesperson Emily Williams wrote in an emailed statement to 9NEWS. “Besides, with so many construction walls up throughout the terminal, who is really to say what’s going on back there? Passengers and visitors to DEN can make their own determination after visiting DENFiles.com.” LIKELY STORY. It sounds like there’s something a little … fishy going on here.<doc-sep>
What’s really going on at DIA? Denver International Airport If, like Twitter user Destiny., you are traveling through the Denver International Airport in the near future, you may notice something strange. Which may not come as a surprise. DIA is known as a place that has some suspect features. There’s Blucifer, the apocalyptic horse that stands outside. There are the gargoyles in the baggage claim area. There’s the cornerstone covered with Masonic symbols. Some conspiracy theorists believe the airport’s secrets go even deeper—to a network of underground tunnels, perhaps even a whole buried city, occupied by aliens and/or lizard people. Giant posters now plastered all over the airport hint at what might be going on. Please let it be underground tunnels. Denver International Airport “What are we doing?” one asks. Could it be… building an Illuminati headquarters? Remodeling the lizard people’s lair? Or perhaps adding new restaurants? Emily Williams, an airport spokesperson, claims they’re renovating neither underground tunnels nor lizard lairs right now. “Passengers and visitors can determine for themselves if it is construction or a cover up,” she wrote in an email to Atlas Obscura. Airport officials claim the lizard lair is not being renovated at this time. Denver International Airport The posters went up on Friday, August 31, 2018, as part of a marketing campaign around the airport’s renovation of its “Great Hall.” The implication, as the airport’s “DenFiles” site suggests, is that the aliens, gargoyles, and lizard people on the posters are a joke, and that of course the blank walls all over the airport are hiding a totally normal, not-at-all-strange remodeling project. But of course that’s what the lizard people would want you to think. Would you trust a gargoyle? Denver International Airport Very suspicious. Denver International Airport
