I was so glad when I saw you include the grave of The Little Mouse. My Dad worked as a grounds keeper and guard at this cemetery for 17 years. He would point out interesting head stones. On Tuesday nights he locked up the Mausoleums and he would walk all the way to the back and turn out the lights. The windows gave enough light for him to see to get out side. We said "Daddy, aren't you scared to be by yourself?" He said " The dead won't hurt you , only the living can do that" I actually gained a healthy attitude about death from him and respect his wishes of not wanting us to keep going to the his grave, but to go on living. Also you missed the circus performers grave. She was a trapeeze performer and the rope broke. She fell and was killed. Her headstone has a broken rope on it. And Ringling Bros. Barnum and Bailey Circus performers would visit her grave when they came to town.
07:05 Its hilarious he just had a puppet and talked there was no ventriloquism!
He just posted another video that featured her.
The beautiful lady vocalists Etta and Ella together at Inglewood.❤️
Ray Charles has a voice that makes chills run down my spine. Rest well Ray.
What a voice Ella Fitzgerald had. Thx for putting a sample of her singing here. Concerning Caesar Romero, he had a likable way about him. I think I liked his personality better as the Joker than I liked Batman's.
I walked down the isle to Etta James "At last" when I hear this song my heart melts! The words mean a lot to me & really speak of the love I have for my husband.
My mom is also buried there. Didn't know that many famous people are buried there. I knew about Robert Kardashian but not the others.
The Etta James album on vinyl is amazing. Boy could that lady sing😊
I loved Etta James as long as I can remember. In the early 2000's, I lived in Las Vegas and she was scheduled to do a show at the House of Blues, which is one of the best venues there. She was already sick and had to sit during the show but it was still a wonderful show.
She sure could!!! AT LAST is my favourite song of hers
Etta is #3 on my top 40 favorite female musicians
Vinyl gives a better experience than cds
My favorite Etta James song is "I wish someone would care"
a kid, Gypsy Rose Lees talk show she did in San Francisco , it came on in the afternoon after school, it was always pretty good, I saw later she lived in Beverly Hills and flew between LA and SF to do this show
No idea how I even got on here... But I've learned a lot about Hollywood and you do an amazing job with narrating!
Fun fact: Betty Grable was pregnant when that iconic pin-up photo was taken, hence the reason for the over-the-shoulder pose.
Fun fact: that’s a horrible and patently false rumor that’s been creeping around for years. She was NOT pregnant (with George Raft’s or anyone else’s baby) and people need to stop believing vicious old wives tales that are not substantiated. What IS true is that in the photo, she was wearing the ankle bracelet Raft gave her while they were dating.
Did not know that
I did
All I know is I have skinny legs like hers so I always felt good knowing I have legs like hers. Definitely helped me as a teen studying old Hollywood. I love her.
@@mooseymcflurffycat3018
My grandparents and mom
passed away 2:38
My great grandparents and my 16-year-old babysitter were buried in this cemetery
Sorry for you loss
there is one star that was overlooked, his name was Wm Bud Jamesison, he was a regular with the three stooges passed Sept, 1944 i just feel bad he was overlooked as he was quite a good comedy actor.
Another famous person in Los Angeles history that is buried there is Tom Bradley, he was mayor of LA for quite some time.
My mothers is resting there in the Golden West!
A beautiful location.
Oh my... CORRECTION Note: my Mother's Father is there. ugh, thankfully I spent this evening with my mom.
Stfu lying
@@malenursetbay Glad you corrected that and I'm sure your dear Mom is, too. Haha!
@@r.mcbride2837 my grandfather Robert MacLeod, and I dare mother shares the same Crypt with her father
Ray Charles attained immortality with his incomparable music.
Your cemetary tour vids are SO beautifully filmed, edited, and narrated..wow, I drive by this cemetary all the time and never realized how many greats of Old Hollywood are laid to rest here. One of my favorite things to do on a nice sunny day is to spend hours walking around a cemetary and reading the headstones..this will make a perfect one to visit..thank you for taking the time to make these!😊🎬🎥⚰
the crypt
LOVE your tours! I was wondering if you could revisit Inglewood to look for other stars like Lawanda Page who played Aunt Esther on Sanford and Son, and other stars? Thanks.
Bud Jamison, the actor who frequently starred in "The Three Stooges", is also interred in Inglewood Park Cemetery. It's amazing you didn't stop by his grave, perhaps because his name did not register as you toured that cemetery.
Wonder why it says World War II on the headstone of the William B Thomas grave? He was born in 1931. His bio says he enlisted in the US Army in 1954. I adored his "Our Gang" character!
Two of my favorite singers are in this video, Ella and Etta, RIP to both 😢 So sad what is happening to music nowadays 😢 Also, as always great video, Arthur 💜 love that you named the baby gesse 😊
Aww that sound of Ella Fitzgerald was so sweet n bold ..RIP
Auntie Fee is also interred here. RIH and Happy Birthday, Felecia O'Dell!
oh i loved her. RIP Auntie, may you cook and have fun in heaven!!! i remember her hilarious ALS challenge. she was wonderful!!!
I miss her 😢
Her grave is unmarked I believe
she's everyone's favorite aunty! May she rest in peace,
Another great tour I am " dying " to see the next one.
Ha, nice!
I see what u did there! 😜
Lol
I applaud you for that pun. 😂
@@HollywoodGraveyard
My mom name is Mrs Tammy wilkinson Died heart attack 04 years ago
I think Lewanda Page "Aunt Esther, " from Sanford and Son is also buried here.
Etta James song " At last" was mine and my husbands 1st dance song @ our wedding.
Tom Bradley (mayor of Los Angeles, 1973-1993) is interred there too.
Beautifully done and classy!
Etta James, at first I could not put the name together in my mind. The moment her voice rang out in the short audio clip, bursting into tears I dropped my device. One of my most favourite songs to blast whenever I get something awesome or return home after a long day... oh man...
I have family here. This area of L.A. is so tough that if a single woman enters the park, they insist to accompany her while there. My favorite stone there is a monument to a family of circus performers, Alfredo Codona. The carving shows a ring with a broken rope, which was the cause of his deatch.
Once you said Etta James I about just cried my eyes out
Loved what Chet Baker could do with a trumpet, magnificent.
My grandparents, aunts and uncles are buried here - Inglewood is a very pretty cemetery. Old style monuments and Spanish architecture.
My favourite segment was on the beautiful, stunning & talented "Betty Grable" ❣😘
I’ve visited Ray Charles’ tomb a few times. I’ll check out the rest as well!
ok but the spirits in this cemetery could put on one hell of a show for the rest of the spirits. Ray Charles, Etta James....Ella Firzgerald....Chet Baker... a soul and blues paradise
This is so tastefully done it's beautiful. Ray Charles gradually lost his eyesight after watching his younger brother drown in a tub of water in their backyard.
Oh sorry, I thought everyone knew about Ray Charles. I did not say it to upset anyone.
Kay Robbie Ray lost his sight to glaucoma, not to the trauma of witnessing his younger brother's drowning.
It was a sad life of Ray Charles looking his brother drowned and lost his sight I liked him beautiful voice I my favourite song was take these chains from my heart brilliant voice may he rest in peace God rest there souls it makes me sad that some of them died so young committed suicide
Your videos are excellent, so well done and so much knowledge. I found it intriguing learning about people who i had no idea about. Just spent my whole morning watching all your videos, cant wait for more! keep up the great work!
Your videos are the BEST of their kind - keep up the fantastic work!
I appreciate that Greg!
Hollywood Graveyard 😢😢😢😢
I love your videos please make more!
Please keep doing videos like this. I love your channel. I never thought I'd be able to see such a detailed tour video, thinking no one would relate to my obsession with Hollywood graves. Much love!
Thanks Charles!
@@HollywoodGraveyard Where do you purchase the music of GV to use in your videos?
i just discovered your series and I love it. I really enjoy that you don't focus on the "spooky" aspect of cemeteries. They really are beautiful places.
My favorite was Edgar Bergan he really did great with his puppet Charlie MacCarthy. And he was also seen as the narrator for Mickey and the beanstalk in Fun and Fancy Free
You certainly have beautiful cemeteries in America, love your videos
Fascinating! The old stars of Hollywood just intrigues me. New subscriber here. Great work, can't wait for more! Many thanks!
You forgot LaWanda Page who played Aunt Easter on Sanford and Son
Actually he did visit her in another episode of grave tours.
She's interred under her birth name of Alberta Peal.
Do a Motown/Detroit edition featuring greats like The Temptations
I've recently found these videos and Woodlawn Cemetery was one of my favorite places to visit while I lived in Detroit recently laid there the queen of soul herself
Richard Davis 6
That would be terrific!
what a great idea!
My neighbor works at Woodlawn Cemetery. I've been thru it a couple times. There's Aretha Franklin, The Ford's, Dodge brothers. I even seen where Diana Ross will be laid to rest once she dies. Her mausoleum is already built.
Call me morbid but I just love these famous graves tours you do!! Thank you so much!! Love it!!💯💋🍒🕸!
you don't just show the header but tell some interesting facts too.
Ur NOT MORBID AT ALL!!! I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN INTERESTED IN THESE VIDEOS! AND THEY'RE DONE EXTREMELY PROFESSIONALLY BY THIS GENTLEMEN!
Wow. Inglewood is very beautiful. It sort of reminds me of the cemetery from the film it's a mad mad mad mad world where they kept trying to find the big W.
So........ That’s where Kayne West got his song “gold digger” from Ray Charles
That was actually jamie fox pooh 😐❤
Umm that was a Kanye song featuring Jamie Foxx with a sample from the Ray Charles song! All a collaborative effort ☺️
Yes
I remember when my first French teacher played I got a woman in class one day on her computer to help us study or something and I had some wicked deja vu when "you hear me ma, we're harmony" came on.
this is crazy because I stay right down the street from there and one day I will be lay there in peace
Me too
My doctor's office is right across the street on Prairie
My great grandmother is there to he was 96 when she pass and she was a slave up until she was 7 years old
mikeandmars2345 So sorry
mikeandmars2345
I'm so glad she was freed at such a young age. Also, sorry for what she saw and suffered.
+GiGi W. thank u
+The Real Dewayne (DewayneIzHere) thank u 🙏🙏
WOW RIP GREAT GRANDMA AND THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING A PART OF OUR VALUED HISTORY
My Dad,his Dad , and Mom together forever there miss you ❤
Amazing! Amazing! Amazing! Once again! Thanks for naming the goose after me!
Really enjoy your videos. Puzzling that on William Thomas's grave marker that he was in WW2. But being born in 1931 he would have too young. He did served though in 1954. keep the videos coming, thanks.
Another great job!
I am really enjoying these tour videos. Such a beautiful cemetery. Their legacy will totally live on. Keep it up, so entertaining.
Two key players in the OJ Simpson trial are also buried there: Johnnie Cochran and Robert Kardashian.
FilmFella Daniels goldberg goldberg
FilmFella Daniels.....Yep you're right. I read somewhere when Mr. Kardashian was dying o.j. called to talk to him & Mr. Kardashian refused his call.
Peggy Hill yes. I heard that once the trial ended, Robert didn't have anything to do with oj.
Toni Pony.....I think Mr. Kardashian was a fine man. Straight-up kinda guy. (My opinion only.) Thank you for your reply.
Peggy Hill you're welcome. have a great day. 😃👌🌞
You're videos are really fascinating! I look forward to seeing more of your amazing work :)
Really love your films! Very tastefully & respectfully done! Please do more of them! It's strange that I've never seen any one doing films like this when so many fans would love this! Also, a bit of trivia, if you didn't already know...that photo of Betty Grable in her bathing suit with her back to the camera was taken that way because she was pregnant at the time!🙂 Thank you for your fantastic films!
This was well done. However, you should really consider doing a part two, because you missed several luminaries. T-Bone Walker, Rocky Lane, Jheryl Busby, Sylvester, Lawanda Page, Syreeta Wright, Robin Harris, Robert Kardashian, MC Trouble, Bebe Campbell, James Cleveland, Big Sike--just to name a few. I have several family members interred here. Thank you for being tasteful and respectful.
Part two please Lamont Bently auntie fee Robert Kardashian Johnnie Cochran deck ellis curt flood robin harris lawanda page.
Really like your videos I live in England so I would never be able to visit any of sites
Ricky Harwood....I'd LOVE to check out cemeteries in England. I'm sure they're lovely!
Me to.
Have you ever visited the grave of Carolyn Craig ? she was in House on Haunted Hill.
I cant listen to Ray Charles without bobbing my head side to side like he did lol. Love his music!
I love you're show. You should do Inglewood again. There are some people that were missed like Johnnie Cochran, Tom Bradley, Lawanda Page to name a few. Thanks for doing these, they are always so interesting.
This is where I'm going. It's all arranged. Nice to know I'll be in such talented company.
Wow figuring out that Chet Baker died like that... very sad. and I did not know he sang! beautiful voice.
Very well done. Would also have liked to seen love for Ferde Grofe, Dock Ellis, "fifth Beatle" Billy Preston, and Nacio Herb Brown.
Thank you for remembering them. We plan to re-visit many cemeteries down the road to visit any stars we may have missed.
Just want to say love your videos, keep em' coming' 😃👍Can't wait for the next episode!
Thank you for the upload.
Watching from Australia.
Graveyards are really popular.... *everyone's just dying to get in them*
Your commentary is so relaxing and educational. I absolutely adore your videos!
I love the names. Who wouldn't want to be buried at the Sanctuary of Dreams or Garden of Chimes?
Chet Baker! OH, I love him! Thanks for including him.
Saludos amigo Arturo Dark-Wonderful. I was a big fan of Ray Charles and César Romero.
I enjoyed my Double feature visiting Inglewood Cemetery Twice! Loved the selection of those you chose to visit! What a treat to see Ryan and Emma as babies now all grown as Geese. Really funny epilogue with ALF! Thanks for the Tour Arthur! Inglewood is truly a Amazing Beautiful Cemetery. 😍
i LOVE these series!!! I am definitely going to stay tuned for more. Thank you!!!!
this channel rocks dude, keep up the good work 👍

Did anyone else notice that the large stone by Edgar Bergen said BERGREN?
Allan 'rocky' Lane the voice of mr ED,I loved this show ,his voice made it such a success in my opinion and of course the witty scripts
I miss him my grandad See's pass all year born 1918.AND died here 2010
Grandad name James Edward odom jr Date Birth july 24 1918. & Date Death September 13. 2010😇

Another fantastic video! I loved the Alf bit at the end :D Looking forward to the next installment.
My grandmother and cousin are berried there, I visit them at least every other month. Now I will check these other resting places out. Ray Charles and Boxer Robinson? Wow
🍓
This is my third time around watching all of your videos, and it's like seeing them for the first time. There is so much history and a touch of awe and sweetness in the way you present them. I've always loved cemeteries, but I've never seen any as elaborate and spiritual as these, and would never have known about them without you.
My dad is there at the Chimes! No idea about the stars there. I only have eyes for him when I go!❤
So glad I stumbled upon your channel, just subscribed. Super great job, love your style.
Absolutely fantastic video my friend you have talent thank you for making my day. your videos gives me smile on my face looking forward to next amazing video thumbs up.

Great video's always interesting watching them - andy from England
True story: One year to the very day of William "Buckwheat" Thomas' passing was when Eddie Murphy portrayed him for the very first time on Saturday Night Live. It is likely they didn't know at the time.
So glad I came across this channel! Cannot wait for more videos!
Love these! Keep 'em coming! Thank you so much for them!
Time for a second visit to Inglewood Cemetery. You could visit Hoot Gibson, composer Gerde Grofe, Joseph Keaton, Kirk Kerkorian, Tiny Kline, Billy Preston, Robert Riskin, T-Bone Walker, Walter Lang, Lucille LaVerne and many others. At least two of these have Disney ties..
Do you know which two? 😉 Certainly worth a second visit. ⚰⚱
Thank you so much! What a treat as alway. Please keep them coming! You do such a good job. You really do your homework!
I truly enjoy your tours, well done!
I enjoyed your tour Arthur! Thank you! 👍⭐👍
I love your videos not only do you recognize film stars but also producers and other people in the industry. Keep up the good work.
I have to be honest, I completely stumbled upon this channel and associated videos.... Totally hooked. Just so much fun to watch and listen to. Massively appreciated.
I'm new to your video and I love them you show a bit of everything where they are buried and a little bit of history about them excellent work keep them coming
You do such a great job on these videos I like how you show clips of what these people were famous for. Very nice job!
