THE STORY
Reported Haunting
The Lost Graveyard is associated with local legends of ghostly apparitions and unexplained paranormal activity. Visitors have reported shadow figures, mysterious lights, disembodied voices, and sudden cold spots among the forgotten graves. The cemetery has become one of the area's enduring haunted locations.
From approximately 1750 through 1854, there was a graveyard at this location – about 9 square blocks. In 1853 they moved MOST of the bodies to the current Borromeo cemetery, about 1-1/2 miles west. Conservatively, there are still between 50 – 200 bodies still there. Graves were opened there as recently as 1982. Multiple manifestations have been reported here including the well documented “Lady in White” A woman buried in her wedding dress.
