Creepy Photos in October #1

I gave myself an assignment for October since I seem to do better setting goals for myself. It being October and Halloween month, I decided to search around the area where I live and find some "haunted" locations (legends and myths.....or so they say!). This is the first one I've done. It's in a very small, very old cemetery rumored to be haunted by a young civil war soldier, who was killed when his steamship exploded as he was coming home from battle. (this photo is not his grave...better in download). I spent a lot of time in this cemetery....no ghosts that I saw. But did they see me??

That's a Creepy Photo but nice.
That steamship was probably the Sultana that exploded April 27, 1865 killing an estimated 1800 people.

That is a great shot. I like old cemeteries. It's so peaceful and quiet. I've been in over 80 doing genealogy. The ghosts are usually quiet unless they are looking for you.

Thanks, everyone!

EdJ0307: You're correct! It was the Sultana. Lots of lives lost in that explosion. This soldier's body happened to make it back home, but a lot were lost.

rubreuil: Cripe! Next time I'm in that cemetery I'm keeping an eye on that tree! Thanks for pointing it out (I think...)....


Thanks for taking a look and all your nice comments. I have more I'll be posting soon.

Oh, they saw you, Audrey. They just chose to not have you join them. I hope you sleep well.

It certainly looks like one of them bent back the bars and escaped.

That section of fence broken away from the pillar is a dead give away that there are ghosts there.
