Episode 23: I Have a Favorite Cemetery
from Odd Things I've Seen: The Podcast · host J.W. Ocker
I take you back to where my love for cemeteries first started...Highgate Cemetery in London. I met her in 1999, returned to her in 2017. We go to both West and East Cemeteries, finding the graves of Douglas Adams and Karl Marx and the guy who wrote The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, to the parts that inspired Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book and The Abominable Dr. Phibes with Vincent Price, into crypts and through plots of stones invisible under creepers. I hope you fall in love with it, too. Highgate Cemetery website. My photos of the west section of Highgate Cemetery. My photos of the east section of Highgate Cemetery. My Cursed Objects book is up for preorder. Want to learn about the oddities I visit in real time? Follow me on Twitter, Facebook, or Patreon. I also write other books that you can buy. Spooky books.
