The Rev

Massachusetts · United States · Cemetery

A Revolutionary era burial ground on a dead end dirt road in west Fitchburg, inside a stone wall.

This burial ground at Fitchburg, Massachusetts dates from the Revolutionary period, which is where the local name comes from. It sits at the end of a dead end dirt road, surrounded by a stone wall.

Driving past, people report loud screaming, particularly at night, and describe the cemetery itself as uncomfortable to be in.

There are rumours of devil worship in the woods around it.

That last claim attaches itself to almost every isolated New England burial ground and is almost never supported by anything. What is usually found in those woods is beer cans.

What is genuinely there is a colonial graveyard with stones that predate the United States, in a walled enclosure that the town has largely forgotten, on a road that goes nowhere.

It is a burial ground and should be treated as one.
