Haunted Bonaventure Cemetery
Savannah, Georgia©2006 by Fiona Broome and the Hollow Hill Staff
Savannah is one of our favorite cities to visit, and it hosts one of the South's most
beautiful (and eerie) cemeteries.
Bonaventure Cemetery was recently made famous by the book and movie,
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. Sometimes spelled "Bonadventure", this is a large, eerie
cemetery at the bank of the river.
It is well worth a visit when you're in the Savannah area. The gravestones and monuments in this cemetery
are often large, beautifully carved, and unique. We recommend taking a lot of film, because there are many
plots with art that is worth photographing. The color in the cemetery tends to look almost monochromatic in the heat
of the day. We didn't observe the same color anomalies in nearby Savannah, either before or after
our photo session.
We haven't had time to investigate the many ghost stories of that cemetery, but
our daytime explorations suggest that this is indeed a wonderfully haunted location.
Here are a few photos taken at Bonaventure Cemetery. Click any image to see it larger:
