‘Tis The Season For Morbid Travel Attractions

Some travelers head to Salem, Massachusetts for the month-extended Halloween events, others head to Madison, Wisconsin’s Freakfest or New York City’s Village Halloween Parade for two of the country’s largest celebrations. (And, if you were questioning, I am preparing to be Paul Kinsey from “Mad Men” this year.)

But, as a accurate traveler, you want to make a thing a lot more out of your Halloween plans, appropriate? How about visiting some of the world’s most well-known graves? Morbid? Yes. Kind of intriguing? That as well.

The St. Petersburg Occasions has this guide to some renowned graves, including L.A.’s star-studded Pierce Brothers Westwood Village Memorial Park and Forest Lawn Hollywood Hills cemeteries, to Paris’ Pere Lachaise cemetery, final resting spot for Chopin, Edith Piaf, and perhaps the world’s most well-known grave, Jim Morrison.

A couple additional that I’d recommend? How about Eva Peron’s mausoleum in Buenos Aires, or Baltimore’s Edgar Allen Poe grave where after a year, a visitor areas a bottle of cognac and three roses on it to commemorate his birthday. I dare ask, but what are some of your favourite graves?
