i have been there. very creepy.
That is the wrong cemetery in the YouTube post. The Jonathan Buck whose grave has the foot on it is in a different cemetery in Bucksport.
I grew up in Buscksport. The video above does not show the marked grave stone of Jhonathan Buck. Buck is a very common name in that area and that could be any cemetery. The cemetery where Johnathan Buck is buried is right in town and is completely fenced in. It’s actually located across the street from a large grocery store. The marking is also not in the shape of a footprint but is more like a lower leg and foot. There is also a similar mark on the upper portion if the stone shaped like a heart lying on its side. I don’t find the place spooky, it’s just a cemetery like any other.
Been there and my family and I went to see the tombstone
it is not foot but a leg on the stone I have been there and touch the stone the leg is inside the stone
I’ve heard because the bus monitor I know went in that cemetery once and didn’t see the foot on the tombstone but later when she went she saw the foot on the tombstone
very creepy that’s what I think because I’ve also heard people have died by touching her tombstone but you can touch it now without dying because they wrapped but still I won’t even touch the tombstone
