Highgate Cemetery Videos

This morning I discovered some fascinating YouTube videos featuring one of our destinations for next week, Highgate Cemetery. The cemetery is believed by many Dracula scholars to have been Stoker's main inspiration for the one in which the newly undead Lucy Westenra was entombed, and where she is subsequently confronted and destroyed by her former suitors and Van Helsing. Additionally, there was a period of time in the 1970s during which rumors were spread of an actual vampire running about in Highgate. The videos are actually quite spooky, so consider yourself forewarned. You can read more about Highgate cemetery and its famous vampire by following the links posted above.
