Podcasts about Highgate Cemetery

On this episode, Tony Brueski digs into one of London's most hauntingly beautiful—and paranormally charged—cemeteries: Highgate. Established in 1839, this sprawling Victorian burial ground became a resting place for some of history's greatest minds, including Karl Marx and George Eliot. But beneath its towering tombstones and weathered statues lies a far darker legend—one filled with ghostly figures, chilling whispers, and even tales of a vampire said to stalk its pathways.   Join Tony as he uncovers the strange history of Highgate Cemetery, from its days as a grand garden burial ground to its descent into ruin and rebirth as a paranormal hotspot. With firsthand accounts, historical records, and expert theories, this episode digs into whether Highgate's hauntings are the product of environmental triggers, psychological suggestion—or something far more sinister.

At the same time that the rural garden movement was launching and thriving in Victorian America, the Magnificent Seven were being established in London. The founding of these seven cemeteries was an effort to establish private cemeteries outside of London to alleviate the overcrowding in the city's churchyards. Small parish churchyards had provided burial space for hundreds of years, but with a burgeoning London population, burial space was shrinking and citizens were becoming worried about the unhealthy conditions. These new suburban cemeteries would be Kensal Green Cemetery, West Norwood Cemetery, Highgate Cemetery, Abney Park Cemetery, Brompton Cemetery, Nunhead Cemetery, and Tower Hamlets Cemetery. These cemeteries wouldn't get their nickname until 1981 and the name came from architectural historian Hugh Meller who was inspired by the 1960 western film "The Magnificent Seven."  Intro and Outro music "Stones and Bones" was written and produced by History Goes Bump and any use is strictly prohibited.

In the 1970s, the shadowy depths of Highgate Cemetery, London became the centre of what would go on to become an enduring urban legend. As two men, both with their own views on what the cemetery was hiding, dug deep into their investigations of the grounds, reports spread of a dark, otherworldly figure stalking its overgrown graves. Sometimes tall, sometimes with glowing red eyes, and other times with a dark, top hat, the press reports of the unknown figure stoked a public fear of a secret occult world that lay just out of sight, crawling beneath the surface of an otherwise decent society.

Der Buckingham Palast, die Tower Bridge oder auch Big Ben. Das sind Dinge, die wahrscheinlich jeder sofort mit London verbindet. Die Hauptstadt Englands bietet von Sightseeing bis Party eigentlich alles. Aber: es gibt in all diesem Trubel auch ruhige Ecken. Im Norden Londons, im Stadtteil Camden, am höchsten Punkt 114 Meter über dem Meeresspiegel. Hoch über den Dächern und ein bisschen abseits der trubeligen Stadt. Da liegt der Highgate Cemetery. Ein viktorianischer Friedhof, auf dem die damals reichsten der Reichen, aber auch die ganz Armen ihre letzte Ruhestätte gefunden haben. Eröffnet 1839. Viele Steine und Kreuze sind umgestürzt und nicht mehr lesbar, aber manch aufwändig gestaltete Grabstätte erzählt doch so Einiges vom Leben der dort Bestatteten. Von Volkshelden, wie Tom Sayers, einem Faustkämpfer, aber auch von Karl Marx, dem Begründer des Kommunismus. Der Highgate Cemetery hat eine bewegte Geschichte. Als Erfolgsmodell gestartet, ging er 1960 Pleite, wurde geschlossen. Der gesamte Friedhof wurde sich selbst überlassen. Jahrelang. Als die Sage vom Highgate Vampir die Runde macht, klettern hunderte über die Mauern und richten massive Schäden auf dem Friedhof an. Inzwischen ist der Friedhof wieder in Betrieb. Popstar George Michael ist hier begraben, ebenso der Alexander Litwinenko, der mutmaßlich von russischen Agenten mit radioaktivem Polonium vergiftet wurde. Anouk Schollähn war für uns auf dem Highgate Cemetery unterwegs.

Blurry Photober is late this year, but David is back with an episode all about Highgate Cemetery! An incredible feat of gothic greatness, Highgate Cemetery has an interesting history and hauntings to boot. David had the fortune to take a tour of the Grade I historic location, and also interviewed the tour guide, John Waite. John and David go over the history of the cemetery, including its inception, how it fell to disrepair, and how it was revived. David then gets into the history of the hauntings which are said to happen. Mysterious top-hatted figures, forlorn spectres, and rumors of vampires have plagued the boneyard for decades. David discusses these stories as well as the infamous occultist feud between David Farrant and Sean Manchester. Take a history-heavy tour of a hauntingly beautiful location in this episode of Blurry Photos!Follow me on Twitch!MusicDanse Macabre, Lightless Dawn, Ossuary 5 - Rest, Phantasm, Zombie Hoodoo – Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0SourcesJarvis, Jacob.

Im Norden Londons, im Stadtteil Camden, ein bisschen abseits der trubeligen Stadt, liegt der Highgate Cemetery. Ein verwunschener, viktorianischer Friedhof auf dem die sehr Reichen, aber auch die ganz Armen ihre letzte Ruhestätte gefunden haben. Tourguides führen Touristen zu den großen Familiengruften, den kunstvoll verzierten Marmor-Grabstätten und den zahlreichen berühmten Persönlichkeiten, die hier ruhen. Der Friedhof wäre längst komplett zerfallen, hätten ihn die "Friends of Highgate" nicht 1975 übernommen. Seitdem pflegen sie die alten Baumbestände und geben die Geschichten rund um den Friedhof und seine Toten weiter.

When Muswell Hill resident David Farrant wrote to the letters section of the Hampstead and Highgate Express in February 1970, he had hoped to find others who'd witnessed any unusual or potentially supernatural happenings in London's Highgate Cemetery. Instead, Farrant kicked off a moral panic over vampires, ghosts, and all manner of occult activities that featured prominently in the pages of British newspapers for years. Farrant's letter received a few responses from others who claimed to have had their own supernatural experiences in Highgate Cemetery, but the story would likely have ended there had it not been for Sean Manchester. A self-proclaimed occultist and vampire hunter, Manchester claimed that what Farrant had seen at Highgate was in fact a vampire, and moreover, the cemetery itself was the site of ongoing black masses, vampire gatherings, and other dark practices. Soon, a rivalry developed between Farrant and Manchester over who had the power to eradicate the supernatural threat at Highgate and just weeks after Farrant sent his letter to the newspapers, Manchester led a large mob of Londoners into Highgate Cemetery intent on driving out the evil that supposedly swelled there.Throughout the early 1970s, the war of words between Farrant and Manchester frequently captured the public's attention, thanks to the various news outlets that couldn't resist the outrageous actions of the two men that ranged from benign and silly (a naked fire dance in an abandoned building) to gruesome and disrespectful (desecration of human remains). However, while the antics of the two men at the center of the story may elicit a smirk or an eyeroll, the public's response to the supposed supernatural threat provides valuable insight into a phenomenon of moral panic that go on to fuel, among other things, the satanic panic that dominated the news throughout the 1980s and 90s.

In the 1960s, Vampires were all the rage, with numerous movies and TV shows exploring the horror genre. This obsession had seeped into the public consciousness, making the news of a disturbing act of vandalism at Tottenham Park Cemetery in 1968 even more unsettling. The London Evening Standard reported the incident, and many Londoners immediately jumped to the conclusion that it must be linked to black magic and the undead.Subscribe to our PATREONEMAIL us your storiesFollow us on YOUTUBEJoin us on INSTAGRAMJoin us on TWITTERJoin us on FACEBOOKVisit our WEBSITEResearch LinkResearch LinkVampire Burial?Thanks so much for listening and we'll catch up with you again next week for some more true, scary stories.Sarah and Tobie xx"Spacial Winds" Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com)Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 4.0 Licensehttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

In 1970, a case of vampire hysteria hit London with the alleged sighting of a blood thirsty entity in Highgate Cemetery. Join us for a wild ride full of superstition, occultism, death, media, hysteria, paranormal investigations, and the classic case of 2 men who tried to one up each other with who could stake the claim (pun intended) on this bizarre entity sighting in an old London cemetery. The legend of this entity has been kept alive by those who so strongly believe its existence, even after one of the investigators' deaths. But with the invention of the internet, and inquisitive investigators like ourselves, there are questions - and people want answers. Was it really a vampire? Or a ghost? And where is the *evidence*?

One of London's best-known cemeteries, in fact it's considered one of London's magnificent seven Victorian graveyards. Dating back to 1839, there are believed to be around 170,000 bodies buried beneath the ground here. This graveyard has earned a frightning reputation in more recent years with stories of men clad in all black conducting dark rituals here. Spooks and specters flit about quickly between the 53,000 gravestones, and red eyed demons call this place home. Then most famously of all is the vampire that preys on its victims here, in England's capital. Let's find out together, when we ask How Haunted is Highgate Cemetery? Huge thanks to Della Farrant for helping to clarify some aspects of the Highgate Vampire case for me, and talking to me about her research into haunted Highgate.

Michael Vasey takes us to a haunted church in the Czech Republic village of Lukova. *** A strange figure appears in a photo – but wasn't there when the picture was being taken. *** Ohio has its own strange creature roaming the forests… they call it the Dogman. And one man tells of his encounter with it. Ohio's Silver Creek Dogman – what many consider to be a real life werewolf. *** The first recorded ghost in the United States was reported in Sullivan, Maine, in 1799. And her name, was Nelly Cooper. *** Built in 1839, Highgate Cemetery, in Highgate, London, is now said to be one of the most actively haunted cemeteries in the UK. There were even newspaper stories that there was a vampire at large in there - the so-called "Highgate Vampire". *** When a woman died, leaving no heirs and no will. A couple were brought in to clear out the property after the estate had been settled. When it came time to clear out the deceased woman's shed, what they found was more than disturbing… it was horrifying. *** A neighborhood in old Louisville, Kentucky had a large tree that stood in the center of the court – and served at one time as a hanging tree for various lynchings in the 1800s. The hangings may have stopped – but the darkness surrounding it, hasn't.
