Lost Cemetery (Winston-Salem)


This area was once an old cemetery that was heavily overgrown. In the 1970's it was a forest of mature trees and thick undergrowth. As we wandered through, we came across a scattering of many crooked and overturned gravestones throughout the forest, many dating back to the 1800's. Apparently it's been cleaned up. Eventually, some poor sod will build a new house on this land, totally unaware of it's past. Much hijinks will ensue.
