Living near a cemetery

[dieselram94]

I am looking at houses right now for purchase and we are serious about one. However it is across the street from a very large cemetery. It is kind of creeping my wife out. To me it is a bonus because the land will not be built on. What do you all think?

Personally, it wouldn't bother me at all dieselram94! Yea, it is a little different but you will never see a mini-mall, airport, school, etc. across the street. You should be able to get a better price because you do eliminate many home buyer's because of the actual location. Oh yea, first thing to do is make sure it isn't haunted!

Yup, I agree with you 100% Problem is my wife is freaked out. I just got to find a way to calm her fears.

I think the dead can tend to make better neighbors than the living!

 

[arnofarrell]

What is she affraid of exactly, just the fact there are dead people across the street or it could be haunted or something like that?

 

[dieselram94]

As far as I can tell she is afraid of ghosts and being depressed looking at the headstones.

Same thing I told her! Thank you for posting this as it restates what I said.

When we were first married, the first real nice apartment that we had was on a deadend street that had one of the older cemeterys in Burlington. It was a nice, secure and quiet area. The bedroom on the second floor accessed a flat roof that you could sit out on that over looked the whole cemetery,and it was peaceful sitting and relaxing after a day of work. Lived their three years until we bought this house on the Lake, and never experienced anything but tranquility and peace. Don't think your wife should have any problem, as you said before, the dead usually make better neighbors than the living. Good luck.

Very Simple !

at Midnight tell her you have a surprise & Blindfold her.

Take her to the Cemetery and Yell at the top of your Lungs.

"IF THERE IS ANYONE HERE WHO OBJECTS TO US LIVING HERE SAY SOMETHING NOW !"

wait 60 seconds then take her blindfold off & say "See ! not one Complaint"

Disclaimer: if they all stand up & yell YES back,
say "their coming to get you Barbara" to her & run

AGREE!

I'm sure your neighbors across the street will be very quite, and no loud parties

You forgot about The Return of the Living Dead & Linnea Quigley spart

Think of the extra entertainment you'll have every year at Halloween

Diesel, It's not the dead that are going to hurt you. I would not bother me living next to it. Of course this is coming from a funeral director/embalmer. HAHAHA!

The location would bother the heck out of her the longer she has to stay there and will blame you for her depression. I'd say skip the home and look elsewhere because of her fears.

Don't worry people are dying to get there not get out

My son had a place across from a old one we detected his front yard and came up with some large cents Found out when the road was dirt and no fence around the place the people would park their wagons across the street. most 1865's.
