Yep.
Twice in my life I've lived within 100 feet of cemeteries.
And I've spent many nights wandering through them.
No big deal.

ETA: It ain't the dead ones you need to worry about...

I grew up next door to the town cemetery so it served as the neighborhood playground.  I've never seen anything spooky, weird, or unexplained over there.  Might be part of why I do not believe in ghosts or the supernatural.

I was handcuffed in a graveyard one Halloween, does that count?

I went to one at night on Oct 12th.  Several dead people spoke to me and told me about their lives.  It was pretty cool.

Try sitting in a graveyard alone at night so you can do a stakeout on some dope houses???

Been there, done that.  A lil creepy when the lil led lights on some of the graves start popping on.

Or when some homeless guy gets up out of hole in front of you!   He was homeless, right fellas??

One of the buildings where I work was built right over a graveyard. They supposedly relocated the graves but there was a minor stir a couple of years ago when they did some construction there and unearthed some remains.

Yep, and my Dad asked:
"How many dead people are in there?"
and I said...
"All of them :D "

Used to sit in a graveyard at night and smoke cigs, drank beer.
Never seen anything spooky.

Worked in a graveyard (huge city owned cemetery) cutting grass for
about a year after HS. No spooks, just fucking hot as hell.

About 20 years ago when I was a free spirited young man, I was walking out alone to still hunt in the swamps of NE North Carolina. My path took me through an old family cemetary in the middle of a field of crops. It was 4am and pitch dark in November and bitterly cold.

As I made my way through the fields by moonlight, only, I decided to cross through  the gravestones. No sooner did i get among the stones then  a heavy fog rolled in. It went from hazy to pea soupy in seconds. I was  struggling to find my way and thats when I heard it. There were sounds of many sets of feet walking all around me just out of sight. I do not scare easily, but that shotgun i was carrying was instantly brought to low ready and stayed there until I got clear of the graves and the creepy fog that clung to them. Once I got back out to the fields, the fog lifted and the sounds died out.

Pulled about 3 -4 weekends working overnight dusk to dawn shifts in one when working in security years ago. The cemetery management had hired security to watch for trespassers since kids occasionally snuck in late at night.

Nothing interesting happened. Just drove around real slow, listened to the radio, saw the occasional rabbit or raccoon, and checked in at the office every couple hours.The caretaker and his family lived in a house right in the middle of the cemetery.

As a child, my yard butted up to a cemetery.  I was in there all of the time.  I never saw anything out of the ordinary, although I did hear a fox "screaming" out there at about three in the morning.  It certainly startled my out of my sleep.

Another time, in a nearby cemetery, I encountered a great horned owl doing some tree-hopping.  If one didn't know what it was, it would probably be frightening.

There was one time, though:

When I was on night shift, we would patrol one cemetery that was right in the middle of the ghetto (Woodland Cemetery).  It is actually a very interesting cemetery, dating back to the mid 1800s, and being home to many ornate mausoleums, and towering memorials, many featuring marble angels.  One rainy night, a shadowy figure emerged from amongst the crypts, and started making its way toward our car.  It slowly ambled toward the small road that bisected the cemetery, twitching and limping along.  Finally, it revealed itself under the pale glow of the only working light in the cemetery.  

It was...



...a cracked-out prostitute taking a shortcut to her housing project.

Yes, many times.  There was a cemetery up on top of the hill behind dads house.  You had to walk by it on the way to one of our party spots.

It had two ( husband and wife) tombstones that where shaped like  lounges.  Headstones and then a large slab of connected granite that formed the "lounge".

We would dare one another to lay down on them for varying amounts of time.

Never saw anything more spooky than some ugly chicks in that cemetery.

We used to "sleep out" a stones throw from it.

Overrated. There actually aren't that many dead bodies in most cemetaries. The ghouls usually clear them out pretty quickly.

Been there at night, saw nothing interesting.

We did do some night sledding at a cemetery, those stone thingies are very hard, on impact.

Yes.

Fitch Cemetary in Eureka. The only "spooky" thing was the fact that it's single point of entry had a swinging meter-style gate on it, so only one person at a time could enter or exit.

Does it count as a graveyard if they're in the basement?

early morning PT at Ft Sam, drills liked to run us through the cemetery at least once a week, never saw anything weird, kinda spooky though.  I didn't pay much attention though, usually I was too busy sweating out all the liquor  I drank the night before to notice much though.

Only once. Many years ago. There's an old Revolutionary War Era cemetary somewhere off of Longstreet at Bragg in the middle of the training area. I took a girl I was dating one night in the spring with the sole intent of getting naked and getting busy. But when she saw where we were going, she got so freaked out that I thought she was going to shit herself! Nothing spooky there, although I could see that she was white as a sheet.



I knew I wasn't going to win that fight, so I took her home. Ya can't win em all.
