I'm back at Highgate Cemetery in London to visit the famous burials and explore more of the Cemetery! We'll visit George Michael, Karl Marx, Jeremy Beadle, Lucian Freud, Michael Faraday and more...

• Hunting For Vampires A...
The cemetery in its original form - the northwestern wooded area - opened in 1839, as part of a plan to provide seven large, modern cemeteries, now known as the "Magnificent Seven", around the outside of central London. The inner-city cemeteries, mostly the graveyards attached to individual churches, had long been unable to cope with the number of burials and were seen as a hazard to health and an undignified way to treat the dead. The initial design was by architect and entrepreneur Stephen Geary.
On Monday 20 May 1839, Highgate (West) Cemetery was dedicated to St. James[3] by the Right Reverend Charles James Blomfield, Lord Bishop of London. Fifteen acres were consecrated for the use of the Church of England, and two acres set aside for Dissenters. Rights of burial were sold for either limited period or in perpetuity. The first burial was Elizabeth Jackson of Little Windmill Street, Soho, on 26 May.
Highgate, like the others of the Magnificent Seven, soon became a fashionable place for burials and was much admired and visited. The Victorian attitude to death and its presentation led to the creation of a wealth of Gothic tombs and buildings. It occupies a spectacular south-facing hillside site slightly downhill from the top of the hill of Highgate itself, next to Waterlow Park. In 1854 a further 19 acres to the south east of the original area, across Swains Lane, was bought to form the eastern part of the cemetery which opened in 1860. Both sides of the Cemetery are still used today for burials.
The cemetery's grounds are full of trees, shrubbery and wildflowers, most of which have been planted and grown without human influence. The grounds are a haven for birds and small animals such as foxes.
Highgate Cemetery was featured in the popular media from the 1960s to the late 1980s for its so-called occult past, particularly as being the alleged site of the "Highgate Vampire".

lovely monuments. odd fact George Michael's sister melanie died exactly three years after him,.....on Christmas Day.
Very pretty love the beautiful foliage of tree's growing in & amongst the Graves and other plants very natural looking very peaceful & love ❤️ George Michael I still don't understand what happened to him ❤️ I grew up listening to him sing and rest in peace 🙏 gone to soon thank you for your art 🙏 ❤️.
Absolutely, it feels very peaceful at his grave. I have to admit I’d never listened to him that much but since visiting his grave I’ve listened to all his hits and watched every interview on TH-cam, he seemed like a great man. Thank you for your lovely comment
I can never get enough of this cemetery. It looks more cleaned up and in better condition than the last video I saw. Adding your voice to the video is the icing on the cake! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I love hearing the wildlife in these videos too
The intricate details of the mausoleums and some of the gravestones are so remarkable, I would love to walk and read them, it would take the rest of my life but I would try. Loved the one with the dog, thanx
Thank you! Yep, it's probably going to take the rest of mine too
I worked a bit in the funeral industry which is probably why my interests are a bit morbid but I'd love to look in those mausoleums and crypts. It's fascinating!! Death customs throughout time periods and cultures are so interesting
Oh wow Cath, that must have been difficult work, not sure I could do it x
@@deadgoodwalks it's not for everyone but it's amazing to help a family through a very sad time
@@catherinevfrost85 we have a family friend that owned their own mortuary, retired now. When my brother was killed Christmas Eve night in a car accident, the couple that hit him was killed as well and my brother’s family wasn’t killed, but she was a great help to us. She couldn’t do his funeral because she was in a different county. The help she gave us and those of us that had more questions because I come from a large family, she answered our questions. Our sister in law wasn’t going to bury him in the vault in the ground and we all wanted him to have it to keep the unground water from flowing through his grave, she donated one. Which was a very kind thing to do and our sister in law couldn’t turn it down because it was free. Our sister in law wasn’t going to let us see him. So she told us that even if there was some injuries to his face, if we wanted that last goodbye we should because we would always regret it, she had seen it in many families. I’m glad she told us that, his injuries were not that bad. Most of us chose to see him, kiss and hold his hand and say our final goodbye. What was odd when I held his hand it was not cold like I expected. I’m not a Morbid person but I don’t fear seeing death in different stages. Some of it wouldn’t want to touch at different stages. I guess I just see it as part of life and I do believe the body is just a vessel to hold our soul, that life is in heaven after death.
Im a Watford girl ….Met George a couple of times. Was a lovely man. Think Jeremy Beadle is there, also met him…..
Thats brilliant. Beadle is near the end of the video, tbh that grave shocked me the most.
@@deadgoodwalks i haven’t watched whole video….. I have a 5 year old daughter who stalks me 🤣. But I’m kinda creeped out with you saying that. I was 15 when I met him, he was doing book signing in WH Smith’s. We exchanged small talk, but there was something that I can’t explain,even now I still feel uneasy
I go there every time I’m in London. It’s so lovely.
What a beautiful cemetery!! The ivy does give it a dramatic effect! I loved that you showed Jean Simmons grave, she was such a beautiful and incredibly talented actress! Another wonderful job on this video! You're always a joy to watch and listen to!
I've been in their and seen george michael s grave
Very sad
First time viewer, great video! I originally was going to comment on how odd it is to not see anyone else walking around Highgate; but then you went to the East side....whoa!!! Not only were there people, but there was SUNSHINE!!!
Thank you Crystal and for commenting too! I do get lucky with the sunshine most days, but on my first visit to Highgate in my other video, I was the only one there in the pouring rain lol
@0:41. - you walk through a gate that has a no entry ⛔️ on it!!!!
I think old cemeteries are fascinating - so much history.
Never get tired of seeing these videos of Highgate
THANK YOU! LOVE TO WATCH YOU STROLL AROUND ALL THE DIFFERENT GRAVES AND SOME OF THE HEADSTONES ARE JUST BEAUTIFUL! HAVE A GREAT DAY!😊
Thanks Cynthia! I'm Happy you enjoyed another video. Thanks for coming with me again 😁 Have a good day too
@@deadgoodwalks 💀CAN'T WAIT FOR ANOTHER GREAT ADVENTURE! 😃
I went there last week but was charged £ 10 to go in , George’s grave was nice , but shocked at no flowers on any of the graves ,
You were charged to enter a cemetery? I’ve never heard that one, but I’m here in America. Maybe, they place flowers for him and the family during the holidays and Birthdays?
I am in Australia and grew up with the local cemetery just about 1/2 mile up the rd from the house and I have been inside one of the crypts that is in the cemetery..had 4 coffins inside all which looked to be old coffins.So looking in side a crypt from the outside doesnt scare me at all.
G'day! yeah, nothing to fear from the dead
The cemetery looks massive 👍👍
natural deteriorations are beautiful, the crumbling, plants, etc. ❤
Highgate cemetery has something for everyone. It's one of my favorites to see in videos.
Hi sent over by Grave Visitations and Serenity Sue. Nice little tour, I have to go back and watch your previous videos. Thanks for bringing us along
Hi Linda, what a top man he is! Great to have you here
@@deadgoodwalks thank you, 2 very good people indeed. I’m in Brompton now lol. But I’m really in TX, USA
@@lindaball6714 🤠 haha, hope you enjoy your trip to Brompton
fascinating artwork thank you this is so interesting
Indiferent unde esti depus pentru vecie , pamantul e acelasi ... aceea greutate are peste tot in lume ... 💎
SALUDOS A LOS QUE NOS FASCINAN LOS CEMENTERIOS👌AMO ESTE CEMENTERIO ME PARECE EL SEGUNDO MAS HERMOSO DEL MUNDO😎✌

Thank you sir! 🙏
Love your tours!
Magnífico 👏
Hiya Dan Thankyou for another great video ❤️❤️

Thanks for watching!
This video is way better than the previous one you did. I watched both. This one is very clear as well. Very impressive work, D 👍
Great video again, thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it Ian, thanks for watching again
Very Beautiful Video 🎉👌
Hola.Muy bello cementerio.Gracias por el recorrido.Saludos
Brother👦 you have done so much informative🎥 video....
Really liked your vlog,my wife is visiting George Michaels grave next week, what is the easiest way to locate it.many thanks
Sa vizitezi cimitire , poate fi o pasiune pentru unele persoane , nimic mai mult 💎💎💎
Good evening and thank you for the video sir i like the video
Your awesome! Can we get more of the dates.
Lovely place, I bet it's eerie at night
I'd love to go for a walk there, lovely peaceful atmosphere. Should you ever come to Berlin you need to visit the Old St.-Matthäus-Kirchhof. It's a stunningly beautiful cemetery, well kept, with lots of interesting grave art and architecture. The Brothers Grimm are buried there among other famous people. It's not very big but going slightly uphill you can see a lot of it at once and its amazing, especially in spring and summer with all the lush green around.
I am glad to watch very old graves. It is s few centuries grave. It is in the form of house
Great walk around in a lovely cemetery . I’m in South Africa and our cemeteries are mostly dusty and dry, thank you
merciiiiiiiiiiiiii
Thanks for the upload. So interesting and intriguing to see all the different stones and architecture done.
Best wishes. 💪💙
You're welcome H, Thanks for watching another one 💀
First , I love watching your videos. Thank you so much. I always 👍🏽and I’m subscribed 🎉🎉🥰🥰💖💖
At 5:51 you can hear a woman’s voice , say Huh ! Very loud and clear… echoing within the mausoleum itself . You were looking into the mausoleum of COLUMBARIUM and of the Beloved Fanny Harriet Pusey. however there are many cremated ⚱️🏺ashes there as well, could it have been one of the many entombed there?
I must say that the voice come Definitely from inside the mausoleum, because of the way the voice echoes within. I wondering,🤔unless you had somebody walking with you. I don’t believe that you did, please let us know?
Great video, watching from Florida. Have you or plan to cover any royal graves in just one video?
Very elegant place🪦🪦
One of the best
New subscriber here
Thanks for sharing
Welcome Penny! Thank you for subbing!
Sigmund Freud grave there with his family. Thanks, to show us.This is a real jungle cemetery.
Between 🇦🇹 and 🏴 are good relationships over decade's.
I'm always envious of all the history you have in the UK, over here in NZ we have NOTHING anywhere close to what you have. Not so envious of your weather though lol. Have you ever had any creepy experiences on all your adventures??
I know what you mean, I’ve lived in Australia and it’s the same there. The weathers amazing if you love cold raining cloudy days lol. Just one experience so far at Greyfriars Kirkyard in Edinburgh when I caught something saying “hmmm” managed to catch it on film…very odd
my grandmother clara is buried at high gate
if you go there again can you visit Rosetti/Siddal's grave?
Highgate 🥰
Thanks for the video!! Is there a way you can tell me the exact place of George Michael's grave? I really don't want to miss it. I mean, is it near the main gate, for example? There must be so many paths!! Thanks in advance!
He’s now listed on the cemetery map you get at the entrance. But you’ll find him next to freud
@@deadgoodwalks thank you soooo much! Regards from Buenos Aires!!
I am certain that cemetery is a spooky 👻 place at night!
Is there a ledger with everyone’s name and where they are?
John, Paul, George and Richard were very popular names in England i see
I thought you was going to say Ringo when I was reading that
@@deadgoodwalks😂
Carl Rosa was a famous opera impresario.
Me extraña que george michael tenga una tumba tan sencilla con el dinero que el dejo en fin nada nos llevamos y el panteon es muy sombrio
have you ever encountered a ghost on your cemetery walks ? I did notice one or two shadow figures around in your video
Who’s voices was are those of ladies and kids! Heard a lot of voices, must be a lot of people there with kids! Interesting graveyard
Yep its a tourist attraction so you get a lot of day trippers
Corey Haim’s grave is probably the only celebrity grave I would visit, it’s in Toronto Canada I think in a Jewish cemetery where it’s custom to take a pebble with you and leave it to show your respect and as a sign you visited I think …great video Dan
Michael Faraday is not buried at Westminster Abbey?
No sir
@@deadgoodwalks thank you for your vídeos and the info! 👍
Where did they bury jack the rapper's vivtims?
Where did they bury Jack the Rippers victims?
How to Find the Grave of George Michael?
01:35 on the right hand side. His mum is in the middle, sister on the left.
Since when did people get charged to visit a cemetery in Britain ? Someone should query this with Islington council. Someone is on the make. Family’s pay a lot of money for plots and that should pay for the upkeep of the cemetery. I get a lot of George Michaels fans would go there to pay their respects but to charge it’s disgusting. I’ve never seen a cemetery so poorly maintained. Why didn’t George’s family have a mausoleum built it would be there for eternity. I had the honour of meeting Jeremy Beadle many years ago in fact I made him a black coffee . As he’d been to a function the night before and was shall we say a bit fragile. What a lovely down to earth man no I’m a celebrity about him RIP George Jeremy great music great comedy.
Personally I think it should be donation based but charging does help with the upkeep, and provides things like toilets. x
@@deadgoodwalks Yes donation based but to charge a tenner is taking the proverbial. That takes spending a penny to another level.😂
I've often wondered if the Cemetery officials have the keys to open those vaults. What history might be hidden inside of them.
¿How to Find Karl Marx's Grave?
Macabro
I apologize as well, if I’m carefully making my way to get a closer look at a back stone. I often thought, I hope no living person hears me, they’ll think I’ve lost my mind but we’re just being polite, right? 😊
I wonder why Karl Marx is buried in England that seems so weird and have you ever shown Marc Bolan’s grave thanks
I'd like to know too, I've never thought about it before. Not yet but Golders Green is on the list
He loved England 🏴.
I've lived in worse places and I'm still alive 🙃
Would you go there at night?
Alexander was an Ex-agent of Russia, who turned away from the country and walked together with the British Secret Service. He was poisened with a substance that is Polonium, which is radioactive. Before he died in the hospital, he sufferede three weeks, could not speak or walk, poor guy.
I would like to see where jack the rippers victims graves are or does that make me sound morbid haa xx
Seems normal to me lol x
Yea, I'm not scared to stroll around cemeteries at night but I would NOT do it in this one.
I noticed on your videos that the British cemeteries are overgrown with damaged graves, why is that? Also, why are there so many above ground Graves? Not talking about the mausoleums.
Thank-you for these video's, American cemeteries are not like the European ones.
Is Freddy Mercury buried there?
I think he's in Kensal Green (cremated)
No one knows where Freddie really is. There was a plaque at Kensal Green. I believe he is buried at his home, underneath one of his beloved cherry trees.
@@ElleCee62978Possibly
I used to dig graves it was ok but you have to be respectful
(Part 1)
1:22 [Grave of Alexender Litvinenko]"President Putin was not involved."
1:25 "Let's move right now. We better get moving."
2:33 "Who wants to move right now?"
2:35 "How about you go first?"
4:23 "God hate us."
4:25 "I appreciate it."
4:31 "We can appreciate it."
4:33 "You don't think god appreciate everyone?" [The joke is on them. There is no god.]
4:36 "That's tough. I appreciate everything."
5:04 "Outside, we don't want anybody." (right outside of a mausoleum of Hilda Mary)
5:12 "Hey, you don't do that."
5:18 "He's a castrated eunich."
5:28 "He had his pen_s castrated."
5:31 "Look, I wouldn't have done it."
5:34 "It's pride!" (very loud and clear. Class-A EVP for sure.)
5:36 "They call him Patrick Curry the imposter."
5:39 "Right!" (very clear again)
5:47 "They call her Fanny Pulious."
5:49 "This is Ms. Fanny."
5:51 "Ah.. this is wrong." (very loud)
5:52 "Move my business."
5:54 "Did you just called me crazy?"
6:01 "Who's out there right now?"
6:05 "First time on this block."
6:26 "Who the hell is this?"
6:41 "What do you want?"
6:44 "He's just visiting."
6:49 "Not he's not."
6:50 "What you saying right now?"
7:16 "He's at the door right now."
Most of the ones you showed that you say are famous people. Most people could care less about wanted to see somebody like Benny Hill.
Not sure about that. Benny Hill isn’t buried here, I’d like to see his grave too
This cemetery have Karl Marx tomb
this cemetery looks weird, old and poorly maintained, with all this greenery that seems to grow anyhow
Great Video... May need a radiation check after visiting the poisoned Russian guy...Just Joking I believe he was buried in a lead coffin.

Everything is so over grown, It makes it look so unkept.
Now l know what you look like, I've got trying to find a picture of you
Your picture doesn't match your voice
