In Midlothian, Illinois there is a tiny longtime abandoned cemetery with not even 100 plots. Don't relate the size of the 1-acre area to the level of paranormal activity. This small area has had so much reported action it is considered one of the world's most haunted cemeteries. Bachelor's Grove Cemetery isn't one of those places where there's a single "ghost" or something minuscule. Over a dozen different experiences were documented multiple times, attracting paranormal investigators from around the globe.

  • Electronic interference
  • camera malfunctions

There are a few headstones with very little information like "Husband" and "Infant Daughter." It is said that a woman in white has been seen lingering in the cemetery, is it believed to be the infant's mother. As you notice in the photo, visitors leave gifts at the grave. This seems very odd but to each their own.

You can see a photo of the "lady in white" here and request to view the cemetery records here.
