Me and my husband and sister just recently went to Cardiff cemetary and had a paranormal experience. We had a large rock thrown to the side of us when we asked to show us a sign of their presence. I have a photo of a tombstone with what looks like a black bowler hat floating in front of it when nothing was there. My sister said she felt like something walked up behind her and she heard walking and also heard a womans voice laugh in her ear. This cemetery is DEFINITELY haunted.
When my son and I were there some mysterious things took place. I was trying to take a picture of a monument with my cell phone which has never failed. When I snapped the picture a moaning sound came through my phone and my cell phone went dark. My son also heard it. The picture I’m showing here was taken when I was there about 10 years ago with a regular camera with film.
Me and a few buddies went there one night just messing around and things didn’t go like we thought they would. One of my buddies got scratched after sitting on a gravestone, all of us got pushed some point through the night,and the creepiest thing I ever saw was right before we left, the truck headlights were shining on a tree in front of the cemetery so I took a picture and later found a little girl peeking around the tree looking directly at me, we saw shadows everywhere, moans here and there and got an evap close to the woods that said “ ground, foliage, man”.
My relatives are buried there. As a teenager we would go parking there. LOTS of bizarre things happened over the years.. I have some stories of some spooky things Goin on. Yep this cemetery is haunted…. And if you go on up the road to Lynn’s Crossing Cemetery it’s haunted also.. oh yeah. On the side of Cardiff cemetery is an old African cemetery that just in the last 30 years or so was cleaned up and that’s where some lights and orbs show.. My uncle was the caretaker for 50 years so I’ve got lots on info. Good hunting. Be respectful. Kenny
