    Hey I really enjoyed this story. I’m a recovering alcoholic now but back when I was in college (1991-1996) I obviously was a severe heavy drinker and on nights that I couldn’t walk home I would somehow barely make it to the town cemetery, climb over the stone wall and head towards the middle of the cemetery and lay down at the base of a couple of trees and take a little snooze till I could get my navigation system up and runnin again to make it home. It was always pretty safe in a cemetery.
    6 years 3 months ODAAT.
    Take care and peace be with the families of the air tragedy last night.🙏😔

    I used to hunt next to an old cemetery like this in the Mark Twain National Forest in Missouri. One morning I was walking to my spot before the sun came up and I passed an old man coming out of the cemetery caring an old lantern that wasn't lit. He just nodded to me as he passed like he was walking back to the road. I was the only one parked at the gate and we were miles away from any house or private land. It was super creepy. Something I'll never forget.

    I live in michigan and we are in no short supply of strange things and places. At one time there was a state mental asylum in northville michigan that has been closed and abandoned for years. My cousin tells stories about sneaking into and exploring this place and other sites. This asylum is on a huge parcel of land with multiple buildings, connected by underground tunnels. He told me that it was super scary exploring the buildings and tunnels with flashlights 🔦 after dark. Another location my cousin told me about was on a steelhead fishing trip along the Clinton River about 30 miles north of detroit. Him and a friend discovered a bunker like structure in the woods. They entered this structure and discovered it to be an abandoned cold war era Nike Ajax missile site. Yes there are some strange things out there, everywhere. Great video 😊😊

    Oh boy...now you are getting my 'what in the world' senses going . The woods is full of all sorts of unknown (by someone) or unexplained stuff that happens. That is what I enjoy about exploring and finding all kinds of places. Some many have been too, but I haven't and I hope I can share all sorts of experiences in the woods and show others. Great experience Craig. Who knows, we may run into each other sometime out exploring. Stay safe and stay spooky- Tony

    There are some strange people who hang out in National Forests and other public lands. In the Ozarks, there was a man who had some goats and walked along his trails with a broom, keeping the trails swept clean. I never saw him, but heard he had once been a banker. I think some of the people around there would help him out with some food. I don't know if he had a tent, or had built some sort of shelter.

    WHEN PEOPLE SAY the mystery man was resting, sleeping, or mourning, they aren't taking into account it was raining. Also not taken into account is the fact that the gravestone is very old, older than any child or grandchild of the deceased. I think that leaves us with somebody who is mentally unbalanced, or possibly into some occult activity. After all, who goes deep into the forest and lies down right above a deceased, long-forgotten body?

    Jim Morrison said it best. People are strange. A person sleeping on top of a grave in an old cemetery
    may seem strange to some folks, but it happens. Unfortunately, my experience in eastern Kentucky is that there are a large number of people with mental illnesses out in the woods, the DB national forest and the other federal and state parks and recreational areas. I had a couple of strange encounters in the Red River Gorge area, as well as the DB national forest. Most of my friends and family who hike and camp across the country have similar stories.
