Ep. 273 - Haunted Cemeteries 11

On this Stones and Bones, we are focusing specifically on the cemeteries that name themselves Old Burying Ground. These Old Burying Grounds offer a snapshot of what life was like during the Colonial Period in America and they don't use the term "cemetery" in the name because the term wasn't in use yet. Garden cemeteries were a couple hundred years away from being planned, so many of these cities of the dead are haphazard and wild. And they were never considered hallowed, but rather, common. Many of them are filled with notable people from American history. Intro and Outro music "Stones and Bones" was written and produced by History Goes Bump and any use is strictly prohibited.

Water can be dangerous for anyone, even the best swimmers in the world. Water has a cunning to it and when you add currents and rocks and other things, a mild brook can turn into a raging river. An ocean that regularly meets the beachline and recedes can become a tsunami that wipes out a city. Or it can become a great flood that wipes out nearly all of humanity as so many myths have recounted. Water and spirits go hand in hand. We've heard that ghosts can't cross water, but also that spirits can use water for energy since they are mainly electrical. There are many bodies of water, both large and small, throughout the world that have ghost stories connected to them. Join us as we share these haunted deadly waters.

When most of us think of angels, we picture these figures of light, wearing white with enormous wings on their back. Most people believe that they have a personal guardian angel. We also assume that angels come in a couple of varieties: archangels, standard and fat little babies with wings. When an angel falls it becomes a demon, right? But are any of these assumptions biblical? What the Bible says about these supernatural helpers might surprise you. Diane also shares her own personal encounter with a possible angel.

It seems her spirit haunts the prison where she died. Join us as we share these tragic tales that have left revenants of two bad marriages.

Port Arthur is part of a World Heritage site featuring former Australian jail sites and it is an open air museum. Australia has a harsh history since it was established as a place for Britain to send her convicts. Many of the prisoners from Ireland's Kilmainham Gaol were sent to Australia. Port Arthur's prison became the stop for Britain's worst convicts. Such a harsh place would be a good breeding ground for things that go bump in the night just from its penal history alone. But this area has an even more tragic story. It was the site of a massacre in 1996. No wonder Port Arthur is considered to be one of the most haunted locations in all the world.
