The cemetery got its name because of the spider like web patterns on the gates. There is supposedly a tree there called "The Hanging Tree" where someone had committed suicide by hanging themselves to this tree.

There is on tree near the cemetery that if you put a certain type of stone upon it you will be able to see the devil himself and he will talk to you. Children have been heard laughing in the cemetery at night and howling has been heard as well as spirits and mysterious fog. it was kinda weird to see that on the list.. :eek3: Terrapin 09-06-2005, 08:38 PM its listed under Worcester too..(its actually located in Leicester though, about 10 minutes outside)..and the description (about the sightings and goings on)are very accurate Worcester - Spider Gates Cemetery - NO TRESSPASSING - A very dangerous cemetery.

The Ghost Research Society had seen a young woman dressed in old-fashioned clothes and perched on a tombstone on August 10,1991. But even though she seemed to be almost transparent, a camera caught her image pretty clearly. If she was a ghost that picture will prove that ghost are real to people don't believe in them. This is rated as one of the world's most haunted places. I have spent many nights at Bachelor's Grove. VERY COOL PLACE INDEED!!! Next time Dink signs on the DA I will have him tell you guys about one of the coolest nights ever at Bachelor's Grove. :nice: R.Tricky 09-06-2005, 10:01 PM Yea, that is a sweet place to hang out at and drink when we were kids.

They took the bodies out in the woods and buried them deep so that animals wouldn?t get to them and spread the virus. soon after they took the bodies out, they too would die themselves and fall where ever they landed. Now you can see what everyone calls "the white ghost" it will come around only when you do, also how can you forget the painful moans and screams. nobody goes there except for kids it is not patrolled by anyone, so beware... Gotta check this out... I'm surprised my hometown wasn't on there.. But the town next to us has an even better one, its where I got married...and the only Henniker on earth :nice: Henniker - Ocean-Born Mary House - Believed to be haunted by Mary Wallace. The apparition of a six-foot-tall woman, with red hair and flashing green eyes started to appear in the upstairs windows or on the central staircase. Some even saw Mary?s ghost riding through the hills in a phantom coach drawn by four horses. Her apparition was often seen in the yard, throwing something down the well. Many of them reported feeling the presence of Ocean-Born Mary. Her ghost was once seen helping family members repair a garage during a fierce storm, and several subsequent owners believe her presence protects the house from harm.
