    Bonaventure Cemetery

    SavannahUnited States1846 (Plantation established 1762)

    Perched dramatically on a scenic bluff overlooking the Wilmington River east of Savannah, Georgia, the 160-acre Bonaventure Cemetery is world-famous for its haunting Southern Gothic beauty, Spanish moss-draped live oaks, and intricate Victorian funerary sculpture. Originally established as Evergreen Cemetery in 1846 on the historic site of Bonaventure Plantation, it became immortalized by John Berendt's 1994 bestseller 'Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil'. Visitors and grave-tenders frequently report encountering child apparitions, moving marble statues, and disembodied laughter.

    AtlantaUnited States1850

    Located at 248 Oakland Avenue SE near downtown Atlanta, Georgia, the 48-acre Oakland Cemetery is the city's oldest public park and burial ground, established in 1850 as Atlanta Cemetery. A premier example of 19th-century Victorian rural garden cemetery design, Oakland holds over 70,000 human interments, including 6,900 Confederate soldiers, Union casualties, six Georgia governors, and 'Gone with the Wind' author Margaret Mitchell. Renowned as one of Atlanta's most active historic hauntings, visitors report encounters with phantom Civil War soldier roll calls, disembodied brass music, and weeping Victorian statues.
