Is this place they are talking about, the Palmer, IL Cemetery, or the Clarksdale, IL Cemetery?

“Is rural Illinois’ infamous “Graveyard X” simply a publicity stunt that got out of hand, or is it a portal to the beyond?” Michael Kleen.

Most visceral experience I’ve had

“Don’t taunt the unseen. There is a bench between two trees. DON’T sit on it, DON’T stand on it. We had a phantom chase us back to the entrance. Honestly, truly, horrifying. Exercise caution and get home safely..” From Illinois Haunted Houses.

“My experience with sitting between the two trees was listening to them talk to each other. Other than that, nothing else happened”. -Tracie Hicks

Jul 23, 2022, HAUNTED EXPLORING … Stories about a hidden ancient cemetery and an attacking Dire Wolf have made Graveyard X one of the creepiest cemeteries in Illinois. Although I didn’t find these paranormal anomalies, I did get interesting replies, creepy sensations, and a weird shadow orb.

  1. I have a video on my facebook of the witch’s bridge at palmer-anderson cemetery. It was the scariest thing ever! Our car would not start on the bridge until we let the minute pass. Also no matter how many times you try, you can’t get a picture of the bridge…it only turns black on your camera’s screen.
