Traditional Wicked Traditional Wicked (formerly Kirei No Shizuka)is dedicated to my cemetery photos, my gothesque art and other darkly beautiful distractions. Please enjoy!
This site contains an extensive photo collection of many well known cemeteries, and some less known as well. From Congressional, Arlington National, Mt. Auburn, and Gettysburg Cemeteries to name a few. In the section on Salem, MA there are photos from area graves, and sites connected to the Salem Witch Hysteria. Along the way you will find the MS Agents Genie, Merlin and friends who narrate interesting burials and tell of spooky tales.
Mt. Auburn in Cambridge, MA is a well known early American garden cemetery. Like that of Pere-Lachaise in Paris, there are many well know graves here. From laureates, statesmen, inventors, and a cadre of others lie here in eternal rest amongst a beautiful planned cemetery. The shakers and movers of Boston found there resting place here.
Forest Hills Cemetery in Boston is another local cemetery that followed the planned design. Resting here can be found many early Bostonians. The usual from famous to infamous. The crematory became the focus of attention when Lucy Stone “was burned” back in 1893, the cemetery’s first cremation. Years later the Sacco and Vanzetti execution witnessed the seven mile “Walk of Sorrow” as many Bostonians followed the funeral procession to the crematory.
Stop by and look around and see what other stories and photos await.
A small site about Sydney's oldest and largest cemetary, Rookwood Necropolis. Dating from 1867, the Mausoleums and gravestones are beautiful. A more indepth history of Rookwood will be added as the information comes to me. Building of the Rookwood site started March 1st, 2002.
