| Friends of Wardsend Cemetery |
Want some really spooky stories to tell this Halloween? These come from an old cemetery in England called Wardsend. It opened in 1857, saw its last funeral in 1977, was officially closed about a decade later, and forgotten and neglected, fell into disrepair. It became overgrown and soon came to resemble the dark, spooky, shadow-filled cemeteries of one's nightmares. Recently, the local council cleaned it up and a group called Friends of Wardsend Cemetery put together this website and now offers tours of the place. The fact that these stories of some of the town's and the cemetery's inhabitants are true makes them just that much better, don't you think?: http://friendsofwardsendcemetery.btck.co.uk/People
