Not to be confused with New Grove Cemetery, the Fort White Cemetery is a really old cemetery where most of the gravestones are unreadable or have been buried by leaves or dirt. It is definitely spooky and creepy there, it is really overgrown and goes back into the woods quite a ways, but there is a legend that goes with it. Rumor has it that if you go into the cemetery way back separated from other graves is a tree with a gravestone that has been broken in half under it. You are supposed to put the gravestone back together and read what’s on it and you will hear babies crying or possibly see children running.

This is the actual address of the old fort white cemetery, it took us all day to find it and this is our own home town. Gate has no lock and is open. It’s not very well maintained either.

Also there’s 6 grave stones (not 5) and not one of them is torn in half. We visited at 10 at night. However all three of us heard footsteps from a human behind us that were extremely close but when we turned around with our flashlight there was no one. We have tons of pictures. Had a lot of fun until someone came out with a flashlight toward us. Then we bailed. I recommend visiting in the day time so you don’t get in to trouble.
Me and my friend went and we didn’t see anything but we did hear something such as footsteps. We didn’t see a broken in half grave ,please if you know where it is pls let me know.
