Our very Scary Spooky Halloween Moon!



BOO!!

Lafayette Cemetery No. 1 in New Orleans









If people did not have enough money for a crypt they would rent one of these wall compartments for a monthly fee. I don't know what happened if you did not pay your rent.



I loved walking through this old above-ground cemetery in New Orleans. It is the 3rd oldes cemetery in New Orleans and is crumbling and weedy but that is what gives it it's charm. People who have old family burial plots there are still being buried in them. They just go in and push the remains to the back and put in the new body. In 50 years there will be very little left of it. There are many many peoples remains in each crypt. I found it hauntimgly beautiful and could have spent all day reading the history in the epitaphs on the tombs. To find out more about Lafayette Cemetery No.1 go here.
