Chase Cemetery - Oh.
Legend has a young woman, nicknamed the Lady in Grey, wandering

Chicago
Graveyards
A comprehensive listing of haunted cemeteries in the Chicago area.
Well worth investigating.
Dartford
Cemetery - Greenlake, Wi.
Having recently seen a re-run of A
Haunting, a series put out by the Discovery Channel. I saw that
Dartford Cemetery wasn't included in ghosthaunts.com
cemetery listings, so we'll include it now. The
show in the series was from a few years ago and the episode was Legend
Trippers.
El
Campo Santo Cemetery -San Diego, CA
Restored El Campo has had a rough past with years of rumors about
unmarked and lost graves. It's believed to be actively haunted. Elkhart Hill Cemetery
The first settler was James Latham. In 1824 he was appointed by President
John Quincy Adams to the position of Indian Agent at Fort Clark (now
Peoria).
Graceland
Cemetery
Chicago's Graceland Cemetery has been known for ghost activity
for over a hundred years. Founded in 1860, it was swallowed by the
city limits.
Highgate Cemetery
Like many of England's most famous places, Highgate Cemetery in Highgate, London is perhaps one of the most actively haunted
cemeteries in the UK. Opened in 1839, Highgate serves as the final resting place of a long list of famous people including Douglas Adams, Karl Marx and Radclyffe Hall. Hollywood
Memorial Park - L.A.
A cemetery occupied by so many stars is bound to generate ghostly
going's on among the Hollywood set. Among the stars of this
shadowy show are Fatty Arbuckle, Valentino and others, some of whom have
been seen disappearing into the Paramount lot, adjacent. Lafayette
Cemetery New Orleans
Unquestionably one of the
most interesting and written-about cemeteries in the country, Lafayette
Cemetery in the Big Easy stands as one of the most haunted. Ghosts
have been seen flitting in and around the above-ground graves.
Resurrection Cemetery -
Chicago
One of the most famous graveyards in America, this cemetery is
haunted by Resurrection Mary, a woman killed near the cemetery after
leaving a dance she'd attended. It is said she asks drivers to let
her off at the gates to the cemetery but usually vanishes once
there. The ghost is believed to be her, considering her description
and history. Silver
Cliffs - Colorado
Even though many seem not to take much stock in ghost orbs and
lights, there are numerous witness accounts of seeing the lights dance
and play among the graves. Studied by prominent scientists like
National Geographic, the ghost lights still remain a mystery. Soop
Cemetery
These pictures were taken in Soop Cemetery located in Belleville, MI. This
is one of the most active cemeteries in the state. Stepp
Cemetery - Morgan Monroe State Forest - Indiana
The most common rumors about spirit hauntings in this forest setting
involve a woman entirely in black who floats just above the ground and
always disappears as she turns to look at you. Western
Burial Ground - Baltimore
This graveyard where Edgar Allen Poe rests, has catacombs that sit
beneath Westminster Hall. Ghosts and full body apparitions have
stoked the fire-side stories of haunted places for a long time.
People swear they've spotted the poet Poe as well.
