     | 39,605 views

    Graveyards are not my most favorite places. There’s just something about graveyards. They speak of the dead. There is such a sense of finality associated with a graveyard.

    INTRO: Graveyards are not my most favorite places. There’s just something about graveyards. They speak of the dead. There is such a sense of finality associated with a graveyard.
