THIS STORY:
He left behind a wife and several children. Supposedly, he died with a fear of catching sleeping sickness, which would give the illusion of death, later to awaken in a cold, dark grave, very much alive.
According to the feature article, there are other legends about the tomb. One is that Smith had it outfitted with “tools for his escape.” Although condensation and plant growth inside the shaft now block one’s view, residents in years past claimed to see the tools along with Smith’s bones. Said one, “You can see the face of the skeleton down there with a hammer and chisel crossed on the ground next to it” (Marquard 1982). Another source claims that when Smith was interred, “In the corpse’s hand they placed a bell that he could ring should he wake up and find himself the victim of a premature burial”

The Angel face you see is the Haserot, named “The Angel of Death Victorious". The stoic angel is seated on the marble gravestone of canning entrepreneur Francis Haserot and his family. Holding an extinguished torch upside-down, it represents a symbol of life extinguished. Wings are outstretched and the gaze is straight ahead.
IN THE END, DEATH ALWAYS WINS. LEST THE FACES NOT BE FORGOTTEN...
This channel is focused on casually walking and viewing a handful of the thousands of forgotten names and faces at various cemeteries near and afar. Seeing their faces up close. And when able, telling the stories behind their names.
Most graves are unknown and lost to history.
Some are famous.
And some infamous....
....and some with tragic endings.

They should honor his final wishes and replace the glass with a new piece !!! The poor guy can't see through that one !!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

We don't have to worry about being buried alive to-day, the embalming will ensure that there are no live one in the box.
Not all religions allow for embalming.
That has always been my fear to be buried alive.I’m so claustrophobic Nowadays most people are embalmed but if you die in a car accident where your face is so messed up you can’t have an open casket I’m sure they don’t always embalm people. I told my son I don’t care how I die make sure I’m embalmed!
@@LindaHancock-ov9ydyou and me both. I’ve had nightmares of being buried alive.
They ask if you want them embalmed if to tell them no then they.dont I learned that from when my parents passed
@@medicgrrl123 I think it's more of a matter of local custom than religion. Finland is mosty protestant and embalming is not really done here. Open casket funerals are also not common, in every funeral I have been the casket has been closed.
When my 38/39 year old son passed I asked to see his body before they prepared him for the funeral. In my opinion he looked so beautiful in death. It was sad yet peaceful and somewhat joyous. Of course then they prepared him for the viewing and my son did not look at all like my son. I preferred the way he looked before they manipulated his face and put the make up on him. I wish people could have seen him in his natural death state. I’m sorry if that seems morbid, it’s just a part of what happens as we pass from this life into the next. I’m so glad I viewed my son before they touched him. Yes I took pictures and cherish them.
I agree, we lost our daughter at 21, killed,
we felt the same when we first saw her at the morgue.
I did the same with my mom, I was lucky to spend a good hour with my mom immediately after she was found and she looked so beautiful and had passed away with a peaceful smile on her face and it was comforting to know that she didn’t suffer and was really chilled out. We had the option of seeing her before her funeral and it was a shock to say the least, she just didn’t look like our mom, we had to literally look at an angle near her head to see her, but me and my sister changed her hair as I had asked them to curl her hair and paint her nails in her favourite nail polish colour. We also took a pair of high heel red “dolly” shoes as my mom was a real shoe addict when she was younger and was gutted when she had to stop wearing them. So we made sure she went looking her best and we put her favourite tea cup and a tea bag and put photos and messages in her coffin. Her skin was still so soft even in death so I gave her a kiss before we left. It was a massive shock but we were so glad we both went to say a private goodbye to my mom. She was cremated which was a shame because of the messages etc but we knew that she was beautiful and all done up and at least in our eyes she would look amazing even up in heaven, and we wanted her to look her best. We put her beautiful suit on that she wore for my wedding 2 years prior and her neighbour had crocheted a beautiful shawl which was placed over here. Then we had her favourite football club shirt over her coffin and we went past all of her favourite places including her favourite shop where she regularly went shopping and met friends for dinner. People shopping that day were very shocked and I know our mom would have killed us for doing that but we knew she would be laughing at us. We also knew that some of her friends would be there. The mad thing was that on the day a man had to step in on his day off as someone was ill, his name was Troy and my moms main song was from the film “Troy” and he was originally from Chelsea which was my moms favourite football club. He came over to us after her funeral and asked if we believed in fate and we said yes and he said that it had never happened to him before in all his years of working but he believed that mom had made sure that he was there that day. He was honestly so spooked by it, and I said “well that was our mom for you, and we always said that when she passed she was to let us know if she was watching over us and with us” and boy she did and that gave us a lot of comfort at the end of the day and the man just couldn’t get over it, bless him but yes I am glad I went to see my mom and luckily I remember her when she passed and I’ve blocked the image of my mom in the coffin due to the shock, but I am so glad me and my sister had those last moments with her. It made it so much easier for us and helped us heal. That was just over 3 years ago now x
@@lisagreenway8410I’m so sorry about your mom. I really enjoyed reading her story. I’ve told my kids when my time comes to put pictures of me on the casket and don’t have it open. People lie to make the family feel good when they say how good they look. Plus I don’t want all that done to my face. My grandma was one of the first to get breast implants when they came out with silicone. She was in her early 20’s. She never had to wear a bra after that. And that’s what she wanted. She would have been so proud because they stood up perfectly & perky in her casket. 😂 When my mother in law passed 2 years ago from a 5 year battle with colon cancer that spread my kids put some of her fav things in her casket. They put a tube of chapstick in each hand because she was obsessed with it. We found chapstick all over the house and her vehicle. My kids said when it comes my time they are going to start the funeral but have them roll me in 10 minutes late because I’m always late! I was even as a kid. My whole life I’ve been told I’d be late for my own funeral. I told them if they didn’t do it I would haunt them! 😂 I also love to make people laugh. I told them I’d rather people laugh at my funeral rather than cry.
I am sure it is tight for you cause you seen him at birth and in death. Sorry you had to do the latter but it is what moms need to know love for your child.
Yes, I know what you mean. My Mother died at 77 yrs old and the funeral home put way too much color on her cheeks. We should have had it corrected.
He was terrified to be buried alive so he decided to terrify the living instead
Don’t be scared of the dead be scared of the living.
@@fireflamesizationYou got that right!
😂😂😂😂😂
😂
If I use my imagination I can see his face (not)
I love the fact that you give respect to those who were also in the cemetery, even after we die it is nice to know that some people will still respect you after death
This may sound wrong of me, but it would be quite an easy job for the correct department to remove that glass and replace it with a clear mega strong new piece. After all it was the deceased person's wish that the glass be there. I'm sure they would have approved if done respectfully.
Think about it: if your glasses were dirty, would you appreciate someone cleaning them for you?.
I agree!!
I'm guessing they don't have the budget or they need permission from the family.
Also, remove the much of the moss from the face so you can see it. It sounds morbid but he wanted his face to be seen and having it almost impossible to see defeats the whole draw of this weird grave.
If it were my city, they'd be blowing the available funds on housing and feeding migrants.
As a kid, there used to be a grave close to my Uncle's house with a partial glass top. You could actually see the man's face. And he was buried with the axe he was using when a tree fell on and killed him. As time went on, all his features were obscured with mold until they finally painted over the glass top. We kids used to go look at "William" whenever I visited. I think the grave has been moved somewhere else, as it was in a farmer's field. This was all over 60 years ago
That actually would be awesome. I think watching videos of things like this and oddly, Kari the Morticians videos, has helped me not be so afraid of death.
That is crazy!!!!
That is Terrifying
I love hearing peoples stories, and their experiences! Thanks for sharing!
U mean a cemetery are a grave near your uncle house
Basically, he's buried in a giant terrarium.
Seriously!

Well put.
In my home town we have a small cemetary that soldiers were buried in that fought in the Black Hawk Indian war . There is a General buried in it and his horse.
Yeh , so WHAT ? 🙄🙄🤦♀🤦♀👎👎
Awww that's nice his horse was buried with him, horses don't get enough credit for their efforts in history!
@@pietjepuk9575 Rude!
Rude ? 🤣😂🤣🖕🖕🖕🖕
@@pietjepuk9575 Do you need a copy of a dictionary to see what rude means?
Can you imagine how horrifying it would have been if someone visited his grave the day after he was buried and saw his face through the glass screaming at them to get him out? I think I would have had a heart attack myself! 😮😮😮 Thanks for the great story!
Twilight zone .
@@pippadot679 they were surrounded by grizzly deaths , i don't think they would have been shocked.
@@lewisbighuber7029 Ray Bradbury Theater
Damn. Well get me out before you have a heart attack sheesh
I’d loot him
The birds are having a great time. love to hear them chirping.. So cool.
yes I loved it....the cemetary was beautiful and peaceful with the birds chirping...
The intense, blinding insanity that would overtake anyone buried alive that awoke before the oxygen ran out is one of the most awful things imaginable. Waking in pitch blackness, dead quiet, barely room to move. I'd assume most people would be able to feel the plush inside of a coffin and realize where they were just before the total insanity set in. Defies description.
As I said in another episode on this, I would rather be eaten by sharks.
@@FacesoftheForgotten Yes indeed
😢
I cant stand mov8es about such things. Such as Dirty Harry Callaham chasing that crazy guy who buried a girl alive.
And Kill Bill.
Wait until you read about John Jones in Nutty Putty. Look it up.
That place is so well taken care of! It's beautiful!
Agree
Are you serious. Most graveyards in America look better than this.
@@GUITARTIME2024 I would have to disagree
@@Jakeheflin5 not sure where you live, but unless its an old abandoned one in the woods,,ours here in North Carolina look good.
Nice but headstone are not level anymore, some are broken in time most will fall if not fix by family or place.
It took three weeks to bury him? I'm sure they knew he was really dead by then. I have heard stories where fearing burying a love one alive, some families waited for some decay before burial. Once you smelled, you got planted.
:,-):-D:-)
Decay happens very fast so can you imagine what they smelled like.😳
@@julieadamson2860 Welllll, they also bathed rarely as well….
@@MrTurtluv yes that is true so that probably sped up decay and the smell for sure!
I mean theres always cutting them to see if they bleed? And going stiff?
At first I could have sworn I saw a skull laying on it's side, then it looked like I saw very briefly a decomposed face. Then I saw nothin but moss. My eyes were playing tricks on me I guess. That window made it hard to see much of anything down there, especially with all that condensation and scratches. I discovered your channel recently I enjoy your videos.
That first tombstone you showed the husband died 6 days after his wife, and they were both born on the 17th of their respective birth months
I noticed that also. I’m really curious about their story.
My parents are both born on the same date in their birth months and my brother and I are the same date one month after each parent. Dates make interesting patterns,
@@BlackStump172 I'm sorry for your loss
I was there in the summer of 2021. I saw the exact grave you’re referring to. There is also a gravesite that has a small stairwell going down to where a little girl was laid to rest. The story goes is that when she was alive, lighting terrified her. So the family had a window (now blocked in) made in to the head of the tomb. When the lighting struck, the grieving mother would go down the staircase and read to her little girl.
I did that story already, an episode when I was In Natchez City, a year ago.
@@FacesoftheForgotten which video is this? I'd like to watch it. Just happened on your channel
@@Mictian1980stairs down to the coffin window
That is so sad! That poor moma!
To me the clearest view of his face is at 26:03. Left forehead, eye socket, nasal passage, cheekbone, and jaw visible. The right side of the face is indeed covered in moss. Fascinating that after all this time the line of sight this man wanted is still there. The sun has shone on the face of his corpse for over a century. Extraordinary.
I bet he get all the women 🎉❤
😂 so sad to the family
W_when i looked at his f_face i_i was _terrified
At 26:16...his face is there in a green light....eyes and nose. I think in person I would have been even more surprised.
@@simonnerosso9420 Why?
We found this very interesting. Before my Mother passed, I would go with her to the Cemetery and we would look at all the stones and find family, ect. It's so nice that you give acknowledgement to those that have died. I bet this Dr. Smith is happy you are checking in on him. Thanks so much. Shelley and Max
? what ? passed ? passed, to where ? they are D E A D .....NO CONSCIOUSNESS. ALL THE WORLD, BELIEVES IN LIES. when your dead/ your gone. dust to dust. The human 'spirit ' which can formulate plans/ideas , be creative with a pile of junk....appreciate music, be thankfull, be cognizant, build super computers, goto the moon, etc.
GOES BACK TO THE CREATOR GOD, WHICH GAVE IT. Humans, are on a totally higher, physical and spiritual plain, than animals: but both, are still DUST OF THE EARTH. WITHOUT THIS, DUST OF THE EARTH.......we could not build, make ANYTHING...... ALL OF IT COMES OUT OF THE GROUND. think about it. FACT . fools.
DON'T BE A BETTING PERSON.......flutterflies.....you are going to LOOSE......big time. Take care ( a fellow air-breather, so far so good .......)
@@petersack5074 We found your reply interesting as well. But, everyone has been lied to in some respect. And from reading your reply you have been lied to as well. But we are not here to argue only say that each person has a right to an opinion. This really isn't the place to put someone down. Yes, when people die they go through the veil so they can see when someone is checking on their grave. No one should call anyone a fool lest you find yourself one.
@@2EternityButterflies So, sir, what did you expect to see, when attempting to peer through the mans' glass plate, on his tomb ? Please don't respond, just wonder why people would be interested to l o o k . (rotting bones, perhaps ? ) There is a total tonnage, of GOOD , WISE AND SMART things, to do with ones' short time, of life.
@@petersack5074 Just makes us wonder why you would choose this video. Have a nice day.
Pls my QA❤
When stones are tall and narrow like the ones you’re seeing there, they had to bury 1/3 of the stone in the ground for support. So if you see a 4 foot stone, 2 feet of it is underground. Stones of that nature are no longer allowed in cemeteries in England and I’m not certain about here in America. As the ground settles, they tend to shift, tilt, sway, and sometimes because of the stress they just break off. There has to be a special footing 2 to 2 1/2 feet underground to support the stone, but even then there can be instability.
Thanks for explaining that.
There is a very old cemetery across from where I work that has a plaque dating it 1784-1885 that has those type of thin ornate stones like that. A Lutheran church is taking care of it and a few American flags are placed. I haven't researched what type of war they would have been in during those dates. Thanks for the info.
@@ericjohnson8001 Yes. It was customary for families many years ago (before TV) to pack a picnic lunch, go to the cemetery and clean family stones, plant flowers. And, kids would climb or pull on them. Many times the stones would fall on them. One woman from the Norway said they now ALL have to be bolted to the ground in a special way so they won’t tip over.
Now they want low stones because it’s easier to mow around them
Just like house building. Because of the constant movement of earth, we augur a depth suitable to hold the foundation in place. We do not just place a house or a headstone to the surface of the earth.
Excellent material!!!!
I can say I was terrified to look but at the same time I really wanted to see him. ( darn condensation) Thank you for bringing us here, I really enjoy all your cemetery adventures!
You can see the head and neck is green with moss covering it in the one shot he was able to get. But I bet if there was a way to clean off the condensation it would have been really interesting to see.
@@JB-zo7ln need to go after a week of nothing but nice weather and sunshine.
Matthew - the nice day and heat is what causes the condensation on the inside of the glass. Better to go on a more gloomy day
@@abstractheory1 guess makes sense.
I’m scared to look!
This cemetery is absolutely gorgeous, breath taking.
I've always wanted to visit Vermont! Looks beautiful!
It is....it very well kept.
The birds chirping the whole was through was absolutely beautiful and relaxing, I always find grave sites so peaceful not scary at all xx
Theyre best at midnight by yourself.
Birds brighten up everything. 🐦
I think they are peaceful too…I took my daughter to a historical cemetery and it was one of the best memories that we have together. It was beautiful there… the tombstones are like works of art. There are fountains, flower gardens, beautiful trees, sculptures and it’s outdoors so the cemetery was an excellent outing.
@@christinacreates2393 🥰
Now I know why they call Vermont the 'Granite State;' those grave stones may be centuries old but in tip-top condition. Granite doesn't deteriorate like limestone.
For some reason the graveyards are not desecrated there by rogue teens! Many beautiful places there to walk through.
New Hampshire is the granite state. Vermont is the green mountain state.
Vermont is not the granite state, new Hampshire is.
One of the stones you filmed...Irena Doud lived to be 99 years, 6 months and 8 days old. So close to hitting 100!
My grandmother died two weeks shy of her 100th birthday. She had her evening bowl of ice cream, laid down, and was gone. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY, was going to keep her from enjoying her ice cream. Even the Angel of Death had better sense than to interrupt her!
@@deborahriley8136 awww bless your grandma hun. May she Rest In Peace 💜💜💜
@@alananalderladywarrior1754 Thank you for your kind words. Memories of her and Grandpa and their little farm in Kentucky are some of the sweetest that I have.
@@deborahriley8136 Awww that’s so beautiful! Hold on to those precious memories 🥰
Some of my best memories are with my grandparents, holidaying in Sorrento Australia (I’m Aussie), and also visiting and staying with them every school holidays as a child. Gosh I miss them immensely!
I’ve never heard this story. Gorgeous! I wasn’t sure I wanted to see him but it wasn’t too bad. I was able to pause the video and zoom in to see him. I wouldn’t have wanted to see him as he decayed. I’m surprised they allowed him to be viewed. Great story! Thank you!!!
Caulk around glass looks newer. Can you imagine all the kids being dared to look in the window over the years?
I wish I could be hired to recall the glass!!!!!!!!!! I would fly back in a heartbeat, no lie. 💪
@@FacesoftheForgotten what does recall the glass mean?
@@sd0384 the putty around the edges on the Frame that holds the glass in place.
@@sd0384 probably meant to "re-caulk"
Also to replace the glass and make it water proof.
It would be hilarious to put a hidden light activated recording saying "Hey...get that light out of my face...I'm trying to sleep!"
and a camera to see their reactions!
Lol 🙀
Haha
Dark but funny
He's been gone many many years, but still deserves respect. Rest in Peace Sir.
I'm addicted to visiting old graveyards. Some of the ones over in America are so beautiful. I always find peace and solace when I'm in an old graveyard.
This was so interesting! Thank you for sharing 😉☘
There cementary in Savannah Georgia is beautiful
Did you see his face? Pause @ 27:43 the dead center of the picture, his head is at a 45 degree upward angle very covered in moss. you can see the sunken eye sockets, his mouth is open, has kind of a big chin.
went to a cemetery with another buddy to see our friend kyles grave and we went walking around and found a little childrens mini play house, all furnished on the inside and we looked through the window, there was a crib and toys on the ground with a grave marker for a little girl. we sat there and shed some tears for the family. but her father built her a 10x10 playhouse after she passed. very sad
@@pippadot679 I’m not sure if the parents were next to her, but yeah sad stuff man
I came across someone on TH-cam who did the same for their daughter…maybe the same family?
@@TammyVee this was in ohio, if you know where that family is from
I think there's an episode on this channel that is about the dollhouse grave.
Yes, she lost her baby girl rather recently. She just had her second baby, so she brings her family out to her dollhouse to mourn her. I think she now has pictures of her baby up on the ceiling
I'm a noob here. It's been about 6 months since I subscribed. I appreciate what you do here. I enjoy the walk, talk, and the history lessons.
I worked at a mortuary in the cremation department for a year while going to school. Many folks who passed asked a friend or relative to confirm that they were dead before we moved forward with the cremation process. Some would ask us to call them just before we started. Others would come in, verify the body and push the start button themselves. FYI - The cost of a basic cremation and urn varies between $800.00 and $3,300.00...
So that's the average cost of a cremation with an urn included? I guess that's still kinda cheap vs the usual cost of a full funeral service.
Around here in Oklahoma in my towns cremation might go for around $600 give or take 🤷. I know I'm doing cremation for myself and a memorial service if my family wants to do that.
I know how to get free, Dont buy anything when my time up. they going bury me in piece of cardboard or something or let family claim my cropse.
My brother in law is the mortician who took care of our daughter's final wishes. While we were always told she would never live to see 40 due to the type 1 diabetes & family history of early death with it (I kept my promise I made her mother on her death bed & adopted her daughter who was 10 at the time. Her bio mother was 40 & 2 years before my daughter died she lost her bio brother to the thing in his early 40's. My daughter was 31. All went within a year of losing their leg. Their cardiovascular systems were that if people in their 70's & 80's )
Bless my brother in law though, my daughter was so terrified of being cremated alive that he promised to sit with her for 12 hours before the procedure. And he kept that promise.
@@KyaniMosaic_Crone An amazing man
@@TheMeloettaful I'm from Oklahoma also, what part are you from?
The little girl who was afraid of storms, I remember that video. Very sad! :( Great job on this one!
I had a weird thought! All those people and I imagine there were several in that day that had those bells hooked up in case they were buried alive you know. Can you imagine what it was like on a very windy day at the cemeteries back then when all those bells were ringing?
Creepy!
I’ve seen other people take video of this grave and they weren’t able to capture anything… but you were able to actually capture some sort of form covered in moss… great job! So cool! 😃
Yes! I was thinking this same thing. ♥️💀♥️
WOW! So interesting! I wonder how many years his face was visible before the moss and condensation took over..
In Newberry Michigan there was a baby buried and on the headstone under a oval lens was a photo of the baby. It’s said the image in the glass aged with every passing year. I saw it in 1997 and it did look like a very old person. I think the locals call it the baby in the bubble. I’m about 20 miles away, I’ll check it out in a few days.
Welcome to VT. If you are around Pittsford stop by the Maple Museum
@Gina1 Same
@Gina1 Come to Vermont its beautiful..
New England is very beautiful!
I am glad to hear you are an architect, because no other profession would be better to document and make these videos in old cemeteries as you do. I have learned that thumbs architecture are the most complex architectures in the World…one must understand many things, great videos! Weld one!
I feel terrified watching all these old graves thinking of my own death
How poor of us to be so helpless after death may God bless us with peace in the grave

Thank you for doing this! I love seeing old headstones and wonder at the story behind them but am unable to physically walk on uneven ground. Thanks for opening the world up!
So nice you can virtually visit! 😀
Terrifying to think about just how many were actually buried alive.

I grew up in Stowe! My friends and I used to walk around the graveyard in between ballet classes. There was a gravestone with cracked glass on it, I think it was a child’s? It’s always haunted me
Wow you did it! I have always wanted to see down there. My father in law lived in New Hampshire so we drove through Vermont all of the time and around the states up there. This is so cool! Thank You Ron❤️ 🤗
thanks Susie. Not perfect...but, I think We triumphed. 😊
At 27:39 it definitely looks like a face and neck. I can clearly see not just the shape, but eyes, nose and mouth features. All covered in moss but they're there. It's visible in other shots as well, but this is the one I stopped on. Very cool and very creepy lol. Amazing find!
I went back and stopped the video at 27:39 and I agree with you, I took a screenshot, zoomed in and studied it, Yep, I was able to make out some features, no doubt he is there.
That’s what I thought
I was once told that the term "Dead Ringer" came from the bell system that was set up to alert people that the buried was alive. Cool video, Thanks
A lot of people get that mixed up. It’s ‘saved by the bell.’ ;)
@@pumpkinpatch5 That sounds right...today it would be replaced with a smart phone with a charging station in the coffin. lol

What do you mean buried alive ?
Beautiful cemetery. Great story. I really enjoyed this tour. Thank you for taking us.
Hello Brenda, hope you’re having a good day?
Its beautiful how people take good care of grave yards thankyou
My town has a story from the Victorian era where a woman was buried alive only to be reawoken by grave robbers cutting off her finger in order to steal her wedding ring. After they ran off, she wandered home in the rain and when her husband opened the front door he died of heart failure due to shock...
That's a pretty demented story!!!
@@crazziechristy yeah
Any TH-cam links?
Shocking
I know I'll be dead but I like the idea of a window! Like being able to see the light. Whole idea of death freaks me out. Simply because there is no way of avoiding it. It will happen and I think that's what freaks me out!
Dont think about it u have to live thinking about death your not living
@@Cjmboo I know it makes more sense. I try not to think about it. But sometimes my ptsd and various other mental health issues tell me to think differently. After being attacked I realised my life could end just like that and it freaked me out ever since. I'm sure eventually the fear will pass I just have to try and forget about it! Sounds sad but my fear got so bad at one stage I wished I would get dementia. Having family with dementia it wasn't something I would just come out with. But it would have meant that I wouldn't have that fear as watching my nan slowly fade away iv learnt she is completely oblivious to anything! I know its stupid. I'm on a waiting list for more therapy. Hopefully it helps somehow!
May I recommend, "Ask a mortician" on TH-cam. Her videos are very helpful in answering death related questions in a matter of fact and non-judgemental manner. Also, she discusses various burial options and the necessary information to ensure your wishes are heard. Death, like taxes, is unavoidable.... But you can have some control over the how. Take care and be safe 😷
@@lost619 I'll pray that you find some comfort and peace, as well as eternal life.
I was born and raised in Tucson Arizona and I love seeing old places like this, so much history. I hope to someday travel to visit such places, till then I watch videos like this. Thank you!
As a child I was terrified of graveyards, My grandmother would tell me it's not the
dead ones you need to be scared of.
My grandfather helped move the city cemetery to another location ... he lost count of the ones they found obviously alive in their coffins
Seriously? How could they tell? I'm horrified to think of it but still feel compelled to ask.
To Jennifer Alvarez........you got it!
Have you guys heard of the mummies of Guanajuato? They were buried alive, so they frantically tried to get out of their coffins/caskets with vain efforts, and they died in grotesque positions.
@@jenniferalvarez4041 most were not lying flat in their coffins, some broke fingernails in the lids ... Talk about Hell?
I WISH PEOPLE WOULD BE MORE RESPECTFUL OF GRAVES AND HAVE RESPECT FOR THE DEAD
Awesome trip.
That is my wife and I favorite thing to do is look at old graves. We like to say there names loud on some, because I am sure there ancestors have been lost if any, so there names have not been spoken of for many years. They should not be forgotten. Thank you for sharing.
I will speak the names next time. Never thought about it the way you put it!
Wish I could do what u do “Satisfying to the soul”
I was walking through a local cemetary . I stopped at a grave of a man that had a long Italian First and Last name . There was a picture of his face in black and white on porcelain attached to his grave stone. It was a old grave . But the picture was mint condition. Something compelled me to always walk by that grave. I told a friend about it , then took her there, Lighting Hit that picture and ruined the picture. This happened in Marion, Illinios.
🙏🇺🇸😪💬oh so sad
Fla.9:45pmFeb.26 ,2024
I counted seeing his face 5 different times at different angles, the first time quite early in the shot. It looks white, not like a skull but a face. Perhaps the skin has mummified. WOW didn't expect to see it like this 👀
The entire face and form is covered in moss, though. There isn't a white face.
U wouldn’t see white that body has been down there so long the bones r most likely brittle due to no embalming
Liar
i saw it too but i think it was just the water droplet reflecting off of the rocks or something
27:27 looks like the best shot of what looks like a face to me, I kinda make out sunken eyes, a nose, and mouth under what looks like moss. Could just be the human mind finding faces/patterns in things where none exist though so it's hard to know for sure. The angle of the 'eyes' looks about right too if you do your best to track it as he lifts the camera, I just kinda left my finger on my screen as he slowly lifted the camera up taking into account angle changes.
I'd be more worried about moss growing all over my face eeeeeeeeek
Cool video
Wow this is a fascinating video and very professionally done. I could absolutely see this being broadcast on television, like the Discovery channel. Have you ever gone into Massachussets places like Lexington and looked at the Revolutionary war graves? Absolutely mind blowing. You are literally looking at graves of people who were there at the founding of the USA
I am From Boston
That Would Be Some Great Videos😊
So your live takes place at 3 a.m SA time. I shall be fast asleep, so I look forward to watching the video on the morrow. Thanks Ron and goodnight
Hello Gail, hope you’re having a good day?
I think a mausoleum with alot of glass blocks you couldn't see through would be very nice.
Remains to be seen?
Very interesting, actually beautiful stones , clean all over, I'd never thought of literally sitting down visiting with a picnic basket and being confatable until my son's were killed among many others . I do so with love, respect, and Pride it's gives me comfort in my soul. I give God the glory for my strength because it's the hardest walk I've ever walked while leaving my footprints and saying, "See yall soon,' never goodbye'
You're like my Uncle Eddie. He was up for anything and always willing to drag us along. Good times, cool find and a nice cemetery. Thanks, again.
I want to meet uncle Eddie!!!!
We all need an uncle Eddie!
👏👏👏
As I remember, my Mother had the fear of being buried alive, she was extremely claustrophobic. She passed away at home, from a massive heart attack.....in her sleep in February, 1991.....I know she was gone......I saw the inside of her mouth, her tongue was pasty white from lack of blood flow......I was talking to my brother, just yesterday....he brought it up, I did not......I was alone with her....the whole thing haunted me for a very long time.
Sorry 😔
Just Pray to your
Decesead Mom,
When you think
about her, so She
Can Rest In Peace🙏✝️
My wife died in 2014 in the hospital. I was there with her every day. Long story "simple operation". She was on a respirator, etc. The last Dr was honest, i.appreciated that. He said she had 1 chance, even if it worked she could still die. I talked to her mother & family. Her mother said, she's not there, that's just a machine etc. So I said wait till after midnight, as it was Mothers Day, didn't want her going on Mothers day. Shortly after midnight, me her sister & youngest daughter were there, they turned off the machine, she was gone in a less than 2 minutes by my reckoning. I know this, I told my family & every one else. Do not expect me to "pull the plug" for any one, ever again. Nothing romantic, nothing great, nothing nice at all. I know she was extremely ill fought 7 yrs, was in excruciating pain, etc. But I will never take that responsibility again. It still bothers me. So much so, I haven't even tried to have another relationship, in 7 yrs. I know my wife is no longer in pain, no more constant visits to the several specialist, etc. So there's that.
@@bluesingmusic3443 ....Its painful to lose a loved one, we never really understand death until we know of it first hand with someone we cannot replace. We see ourselves as immortal when we are young, but until we realize we are not its a hard pill to swallow.
@@gloriahanes5338 very true. I've lost 2 younger sisters, & my little brother (not so little 6'5" around 250. 2" taller than me), & my Mom. But it was different with my wife. At least I've got my grandkids 13, 12, 7. They're all wonderful, but the youngest, she's something else. She's having me teach her guitar, & how to do maintenance on them, as well as repair. There's a German luthier on You Tube, a lady, who she loves to watch build, as well as an older man who builds & repairs. Of course Roblox is still the King!!!
@@bluesingmusic3443 🙏🙏
I had to laugh when you said, "Dr. - owned," instead of drowned. Specially since, from what I thought I heard you say, that her husband WAS a Dr. ☺️
Thank you so much for filming at this cemetery! The Duprey marker you filmed is that of my great-great-grandparents-in-law. For a time in his day, John was a caretaker of this cemetery. It was a treat to visit his and Sophronia's grave virtually with you. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Wow nice!
I was wondering throughout the video if by chance anyone might recognize a name of a distant, long ago relative's name on one of the grave markers.
Very Interesting!
How cool
Thank you caregivers for this place. It’s so nice. The work & time it must take to keep it this nice. Thank you so much.
We have cemeteries like this in my city. I wish the vandals would leave them alone!
Vandals target cemeteries of all places? And I thought targeting abandoned places was bad enough...
When the video says " There appears to be a human head and neck form covered in moss" ...you can see it pretty well for it being old and mossy.
Very spooky!!!!
@@FacesoftheForgotten yes!
@@FacesoftheForgotten Very interesting as it is spooky sir, might I say. I enjoy your videos and how you speak well. Thanks for the insight on the history of those you cover in your videos.
Why am I the only one who saw the face with moss all over it and for a split second it appeared as if he was JUST BURIED WATCH AGAIN CAREFULLY 😱 I am shook!
I totally saw the face too! Eyes, nose, mouth!!
Me three!!!
OMG I think this is one of the most creepy videos you have ever posted! I LOVE LOVE your channel....however, @25:30 i know this i stupid, but I started to twitch my legs with nervousness! I give you so much credit....I am the biggest chicken shit when it comes to stuff like this! And I have a horror channel! LOL. Thanks so much for posting this.
Richard
Sir, that was a pretty good shot especially considering that we thought you weren't gonna get much at all. Thanks for posting this video.
When you froze that camera you could definitely see a face/ teeth covered in grass or something. How cool !
Something was there, or our imagination going wild, I swore I heard a voice say camera, no it was not Ron. It sounded like a female.what if it was his wife 😮.
Moss grow due to humidity. I love Vermont. Some nice people live there that I correspond with at least once a year. They are all nice and polite
There was some good tombstones, still standing after all this time. Wow. Beautiful Ron, love it when you get excited. I'm not afraid of death. I don't want nobody peeking down at me.😁 I'd probably say boo.no disrespect
We all enjoy the live. We all get excited. Just wished they were longer. Minutes seem to go by too fast. Take care. Have a safe trip back. We All waiting for the next video. 👍💯💜🙌🧘♀️🌠🦋🌻🌷🙏🙂🤗🥰. The j family. Love respect and positivity always. Neita james 👋.
@@neitajames6029 more videos this week so make sure your notifications are on 👍🏼
I'm assuming for a good while, after burial, one could probably see his face pretty easily, especially with a bright light. Now, over all the years, it's much harder to see anything.
Wow! I could actually see a scull, as you say everything is covered in moss. I loved this history you told of the area and the views. The people buried in this cemetery would be so interesting to find out some of their life stories, as the headstones are dated way back in time. Thank you for this video, I do enjoy watching your videos because you show a lot of respect. 🙏🇦🇺
spooky it was!!! I had to wait until editing, can't see with naked eye.
I got a big kick out of the animation!! 😆
Oh thank you --I was going to start doing that on a few of the spooky episodes. Next Sunday night we have “New England vampires”, and I have another little animation vignette that I think you’ll like!!!
Pretty cool. You did a great job. I like old grave stones so I appreciate you for showing them.
I don't usually watch videos that are this long unless it's something I've very interested in.
So getting a chance to look through the window was pretty intense.
Honestly I'm not sure if I actually would have been able to stomach a person's dead face but do appreciate your dedication.
Carry on with what you do & I'll continue to stop by on occasion. 😊
I bet you could put a heating pad on that glass and evaporate that condensation off with very low heating.....just enough to raise the temperature above the surrounding air. Nice area. I lived in Mallets Bay for about 7 years.
I was born and raised on Malletts Bay. I miss my home state.
That's a good idea!
WOW I could see him.. Thanks for sharing this Vermont trip with us Graveyard explorer/Lovers! Thanks again ✌🏼
If you like going through old cemeteries, visit Towers Hamlet Cemetery in London, UK. It’s a little bit creepy, but English cool.
Amazing historical story for starters! What a cemetery full of surprises, but this is a first! Ron, Thank you for your diligence bringing to us all what we enjoy, that peace one gets when walking through a cemetery.
Hello Linda, hope you’re having a good day?
I’ve often wondered if the dead spirits wake up at The witching hours just to have a conversation with each other 🤭
Pretty sure they do and have their own little communities, likes and dislikes. (In my experience with hearing spirit box chatter).
It's all so fascinating.
@Sheila Underwood 🤣🤣🤣
@@shirleycoombs7001 🤔???
@Sheila underwood I laughed at what you said🤣🤣🤣So funny.🤣
@@shirleycoombs7001 👻👻👻👻 👻 ✌️
I live in Vermont and was so glad to hear you came here. Great video🌹😘
That's awesome. The moss probably helped preserve the shape of his face over time
That cemetery is beautiful you can tell it’s old but the grass is nice and green and it has the old school tombstones and all the trees very peaceful
This is the first video I've come across of yours and I enjoyed it so much and subscribed. My Cemetery videos aren't nearly as good as this one
Thank you & welcome to FoTF
Awesome! My brother and l have been in some old grave yards back in the 1970s on summer vacations with our parents in North Carolina’s. The graves were old there too. We chatted with some people who were looking at some family also and they told us that back in the early 18 hundred’s their was a terrible fever and some of these families graves had dates on them where the mother was the last to go. She buried 11 children and her husband all in about 3 month’s, maybe more. I cried for her because as a mom myself I couldn’t imagine doing what she had to do knowing she was also going to die. Her grave stone, like all the others were small and she had a stillborn in her arms in that casket. I wish I could remember the name of the place and grave yard. I just wanted to share this story. My brother died in 2011 at the age of 50, way too soon. He would of remembered the name of the town and where the cemetery was.
Stay safe and thank you for sharing many great stories.
I came across a similar set of stones. Six of the same style all in a row, two larger than the others. Parents & 4 children who all died within a week of each other from typhoid. I will never forget that sight. Tragic.
Yes. I heard the Yellow Fever epidemic from mosquitoes was horrible also.
I couldn't see anything
It is very noble of you to spend the time to pay homage to those who are gone...it is done respectfully and you are very informative in your displays and facts.thanks.
Skeletons are so awesome, but you know for a good while there he was rotting and that window view was really nasty for quite some time wayyyy back in the day🤮
I just discovered you today and Cannot stop watching your videos! Great work sir!
thanks!! glad you found us!
Pronounced Her-MI-on-ee like the character in the Harry Potter series!
@@MouseWhite5 me too, lol!
Wow thats crazy they didnt have theskills they have now so they would tye a line from therehand to a bellup above to waer if they waer alive the bell would ring and if someone was out. There to hear the bell ringing they would dig the person up. Thats crazy thank god i wS born in 1974
Pronounced Hermanie as in English.
My grandmother pronounced it her-me-on. It was he middle name
The part about the decedent being buried soon after death wasn't always true. I'm Irish. The Irish community would often have a three day "wake" where the body was in a special viewing casket with ice underneath to delay decomposition.
Being part Irish, I can get away with this. What is the difference between an Irish Wake and an Irish Wedding? One less drunk at the Wake.
@@SteveFlanigan LoL! ☘️
We always had wakes in Kentucky , three days , but a lot of Irish here , now funeral homes charge for every extra day it's becoming less common and sad
@@CannabrannaLammer aren't you prescious. You're presumption knows no bounds. I have, in fact, been to Ireland, and viewed the properties still owned by my family. I visited the graves if my great grandfather, per my maternal line. In other words sweetheart, I couldn't give two shiney shits what you think of the Irish who decided to emigrate rather than starve to death during the famine.
@@RowanWarren78 She is right though, you are not Irish. Just because you have great, great relatives that were Irish doesn't mean you are. You are American. The British, Irish & Europeans hate it when modern Americans claim they are Irish or British ot whatever just because they have distant relatives who once lived there and because they have visited a few times. Americans are the only people in the world who constantly claim to be from other parts of the world because their ancestors came from there in past centuries...its cringeworthy and the rest of the world laughs at you for it. You are American. If your maternal parents were born and raised in Ireland you would be half Irish at the very most...if your family left Ireland in the times of famine over 100 years ago then you are not Irish at all.
I am terrified at that too. I could not even do a MRI. I’d like to see a video on the newest way people are being buried. The natural compost way. Also, another video would be a series on the elaborate graves that spared no expense with their final resting places. Also, I would like to say that my mother passed away this year on 02-14-2023. Valentins day. One of the best “gifts” she left me was that she had ALL her arrangements made down to the smallest detail. All paid in full. When things like this happen, the family is in such a emotional state, but it’s hard to decide, pay for, have everything your loved one wanted done. She was 93 and would’ve been 94 on 02/25/2023. We buried her on her birthday. I can’t tell you what a relief it was to have everything arranged and that’s what I want to do for my husband and children. I think that’s very important that people know this. Of course she comes from the times when people did that. t’s such a crazy world people don’t even think about their final arrangements anymore. She left me the best inheritance ever…… not money, not real estate …… her thinking of her loved ones and taking care of her arrangements. It was a beautiful service.
Being buried alive sounds absolutely Horrific but waking up in the cremation furnace scares the be-Jesus out of me.
