What to expect
Expect a steady-paced walk through the cemetery grounds with stops at specific graves and monuments where strange events have been reported or documented. Your guide will recount local legends, historical records, and first-hand accounts without sensationalising—these are stories rooted in the cemetery's real dark past. The 2-hour duration includes walking between sites and standing in the grounds during evening or dusk hours. The terrain is uneven in places, so firm footing matters.
