  Nothing here to grab you - maybe!!

  Been to this cemetery a few times, mainly because there is a geocache hidden inside somewhere, AND it is supposedly haunted. Explored cemetery and never experienced anything. Neat little cemetery.

  Car Issues in Cemetery

  I remember back in 1980, I rode with my cousin and a few of his friends followed us in their car, to see the White Lady, who supposedly haunts this cemetery. It is also said the main gate is bent from the inside, as it will supposedly close on you when you are inside. It was around 10:30pm and we were driving on the paths inside the cemetery. We made one trip around and our headlights went out. We made a quick b-line to get to the exit. The car behind us, stalled half way in\out the gate. I thought my cousin was trying to scare me, so I pushed the light switch in\out and the headlights would not come on. We got out and pushed their car in front of our car and pushed it about 1/2 mile down the rode to get as far away as possible. Our headlights automatically came on and our friends car started right up. We never saw the White Lady, but something happened that night. I've never been back.

  Goosebumps on a 100 degree summer day

  7/22/2017 - I visited this old cemetery today with my 15 year old son. I've started teaching him to drive a stick, so after a suggestion from a friend I took him to the Wildmead Cemetery for his first lesson. I used to live in Nickerson years ago. Occassionally, I rode my bike from my house, to the cemetery as a teen. So I was tickled to take my son to a place I used to haunt when I was his age. After slowly cruising around the cemetery for a bit, all the while teaching my son the finer nuances of driving a manual, I told my son to pull over so we could explore the cemetery before grabbing a bite to eat at the local cafe. I am a sensitive, it's a hereditary trait that has been passed down through the generations on my mother's paternal side. I have a tendency to pick up on things or maybe they have the tendency to pick up on me without warning. My son and I were walking around, reading names and dates, as well as a few heartfelt engravings on many of the stones. If you ever go to visit this cemetery, you're in for a treat. It is very delightful and filled with many weathered stones of character. We came to a spot in the cemetery were we began to talk about the life of a fellow who is buried there who fought during the spanish American war of 1898. I suddenly started getting goosebumps on my arms. I asked my son if he was feeling funny, he said no. I told him to look at my arms. He saw the hairs on both my arms standing on end. Mind you, it is 100 degrees our, and we've been wandering in and out of the shade of the trees dotting the cemetery for 10 minutes or so. After a few minutes of observing the peculiar gooseflesh on my arms, we proceeded to continue our walk around the cemetery and the feeling slowly went away. Off and on I felt more goosebumps, but nothing near as intense. Next time we go for another lesson, I will conduct a ghost hunt. Maybe I will get lucky and catch something. Becky B.
