You Might Just Spot A Ghost At The Oldest Cemetery In Florida

With October in full swing, it's hard not to let our minds start wandering toward the side of the scary and spooky. Luckily for us in Florida who like to indulge in a little bit of haunt every now and again, our state is chock full of awesome adventures and historical happenings. From haunted hotels to haunted lighthouses, Florida has quite a few places to spot ghosts. In fact, one of the oldest burying grounds in the entire state might just be the perfect place to see an apparition or two.

The Bosque Bello Cemetery, nicknamed "Beautiful Woods" is perhaps one of the most stunning cemeteries in the state of Florida, not to mention one of the oldest.

Rumored to have been established by the Spanish back in 1798, the cemetery has been growing ever since with a new section established in the 1940s.

But despite the newer section of the cemetery opening, visitors can still wander through the historic old portions of the cemetery and see what kind of spirits they come across.

Indeed the cemetery has a certain beauty to it, especially being surrounded by such beautiful pockets of nature…

…but there also is a spook to the aesthetics, not to mention a history that many locals believe to be haunted.

Throughout the years, visitors have reported hearing disembodied voices and laughter, especially once the sun sets on the cemetery.

Apparitions too, have been reported, for those brave enough to visit the cemetery during evening hours.

There are rumors of ghosts in the form of children, wandering throughout the grounds, some even sitting high in the treetops watching your every move.

It has been said that if you stand beneath the child apparitions in the treetops they will scream at you, scaring you half to death.

If you are brave enough to visit Bosque Bello Cemetery in Fernandina Beach, then make sure to keep your eyes peeled for any apparitions who call this place home.

The address for Bosque Bello Cemetery is North 14th Street, One Mile North of Atlantic Avenue, Fernandina Beach, Amelia Island, FL. As always, remember to be mindful and respectful when you visit.
