Reviews
"The view over the Howard Cemetery has ancient headstones and church spires and on this occasion a sky lit up painted by sunset."
"Very interesting and sad, most Graves are unmarked and have footstones. Had a very creepy vibe, but we loved it!"
"Super creepy due to the massive unmarked graves from the witch trials. Most of the historical people from the witch trials are burried here. Don't go at night you'll get arrested"
"A historic cemetary for sure. There wasn't much signage or anything to guide your walk through the area. Most of the headstones are weathered beyond readability. Still a pretty & quiet area to walk and reflect on the history of the area."
"PROS: This cemetery is open for people to walk on at all hours of the day. It has a lot of old tombstones and it even has an elevated middle to see the overlay of the land. Another cool aspect is that it's rumored to have an underground tunnel that has bodies in it CONS: It has no lights on it and it is not monitored making this a good spot for bad people to get together. At times people can be loud in the cemetery since they are fooling around. This place also has no notable people buried here OVERALL: I would definitely see this cemetery if you do decide to visit, just don't mind the others and you'll be fine"
