THIS STORY:
“Vampire panic” was alive and well in New England, and they were all too familiar with methods for dealing with the undead. Turning over a body in the grave was the most innocent of solutions, but many resorted to burning the organs, inhaling the smoke or consuming the ash from the organs, or decapitation. But for the villagers of Woodstock, examining the heart was the only way to be sure. When the brothers of the deceased Fredrick Ransom came down with the same affliction, the family and villagers rushed to the graveyard to exhume the young man's corpse. If his heart contained fresh blood, it was removed, taken to the Village Green, and burned.
According to Daniel Ransom, a younger brother who was 3 years old at the time of Frederick’s death, the family had a susceptibility to tuberculosis, which resulted in loss of appetite, a wan appearance, weakness and fatigue - all the hallmarks of what they thought then was vampirism.
“It was said that if the heart of one of the family who died of consumption was taken out and burned, others would be free from it,” he wrote. “And Father, having some faith in the remedy, had the heart of Frederick taken out after he had been buried, and it was burned in Captain Pearson’s blacksmith forge.”
Sadly, the countermeasure failed, and some of Daniel’s remaining family succumbed to the sickness.

The Angel face you see is the Haserot, named “The Angel of Death Victorious". The stoic angel is seated on the marble gravestone of canning entrepreneur Francis Haserot and his family. Holding an extinguished torch upside-down, it represents a symbol of life extinguished. Wings are outstretched and the gaze is straight ahead.
IN THE END, DEATH ALWAYS WINS. LEST THE FACES NOT BE FORGOTTEN...
This channel is focused on casually walking and viewing a handful of the thousands of forgotten names and faces at various cemeteries near and afar. Seeing their faces up close. And when able, telling the stories behind their names.
Most graves are unknown and lost to history.
Some are famous.
And some infamous....
....and some with tragic endings.

My great uncle passed away in 1924. In the mid 1960's, my grandmother did not want him buried alone so had him moved to rest along side my grandfather and herself when the day came. For some reason, his coffin was opened. His body was perfectly intact until the air hit the body. At least now he is resting with family beside him.
Vampires today are called politicians !! They bleed you dry !! Lmao 😂-Great video Ron Thank you 😊
Amen!!❤
Well in Bela lugosi's portrayal of Dracula he was an aristocrat of some sort. So yes your right.
Hello Sir. I am a Danish veteran having been four times down range during which I have worked with some of your countrymen in both green and blue. On behalf of the dead veterans that you always thank for their service I would like to thank YOU for your support. It is not often that popu,lar people on YT publicly express good will towards veterans, so I thought I just wanted to pay my respect to you. Take care and thank you for your excellent channel and the way you present your episodes. Tino, Denmark.
Thank you for your service 👍🏼
Thank you Tino for the kind note. We ALL owe veterans more than we can give, and I will continue to pay tribute, well-deserved!
As a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution, I'm proud to see the flags and markers placed by local DAR chapters. The east coast DAR chapters are very dedicated and honor our Revolutionary War veterans in every cemetery. It is part of our mission to ensure our veterans are not forgotten 🇺🇸
Wow Ron, this was like watching a documentary in Netflix!!! Thanks for taking that road trip for your gang!!!👍🏻👏
Strange he died on Valentine’s Day February 14………the symbol of Valentine’s Day is the heart ♥️
Exactly I thought that too, I didnt read any comments until now, I posted same thing but you beat me. LOL
If I were a elementary school teacher, i would have one class a week that we would watch this channel , so nicely done with respect and true facts of the history of this great country, thank you Ron, I hope that you know that you and your hard tasteful work doesn't go unnoticed and is respected,
What a nice thought 😊
I like that idea Bruce.
Ron, you should really consider writing a book ! Your life sounds very interesting.
Thanks, actually there’s a San Diego author that’s been working on my story for about a year and a half that should be done next year of all of my adventures, so I think I will announce it on the channel when it comes out, why not right?
@@FacesoftheForgotten can't wait!
@@FacesoftheForgotten I’m excited!! I’ll read your book
@@FacesoftheForgotten I just received one from the Raccoon Whisperer and I m really enjoying lol
Thank goodness
Oh my god the editing kills me sometimes lmao. That burning heart in the forge scene was gold, Ron
thanks, this was an intriguing one!
Ron you are a amazing story teller. I so enjoy watching you videos. My 20 year old son came out the other day when I was watching the Memphis Belle video and he sat down and watched it with me. I would love to hear about your trips to the Arctic. Many thanks for the time and effort you put in to make sure these people are not forgotten. Hello all from Australia. Stay safe.
It’s so fascinating to me to see the grave stones of people from the 1700s! Imagining their lives, learning about some of them is just fabulous. Another great story. 👍 Excellent animation & sounds added Ron!
If only we could back in time…..
It’s so interesting how the older generations dealt with diseases and issues. Those old practices have become our legends.
FYI - Rockford Illinois just held a Memorial Service for over 600 forgotten people buried on the Northwest side of Rockford at the Poor farm behind the River Bluff Nursing Home. A 13 year old Boy Scout found it and got permission to clean it up for a project for the Scouts. No markers just numbers. There was an interesting story on 23 News about it. Thought you might be interested in checking it out.
What a wonderful story!!! Here’s the link
www.wifr.com/2021/07/30/memorial-service-held-more-than-600-forgotten-individuals/
Thank you. I couldn’t figure out how to send the link. I think it’s a great story. I live in Rockford and had no idea this place existed.
ty
we'll see 👍
This was the most interesting episode you have done on AMERICAN history. Very very interesting
I agree!
One of my favourite "Tombstone Stories" was from the South, somewhere near Savannah, GA (1800's) perhaps, where a man was killed by the church bell he was ringing. That it was written on his stone was so odd. The American Colonial cemeteries have some of the best stories.
This winter I’m going to Georgia to do a series like this, and I’ll be stopping first at Bonaventure looking for the bell!!!
@@FacesoftheForgotten Roswell GA was one of fav cities for Union generals. So not burned down. They have a ghost story night, great little city in orginal structures and different almost unknown tiny cemeteries very old. can tell you more if interested
So many interesting stories! Love your channel Ron!
That is some old graves. So interesting Ron. Ty for all the hard work.
For such an old cemetery, its beautifully maintained
My dad had TB when he was a young boy. He survived, but his lungs have scarring. Great episode, so far. Thank you!
Love this
@@jeanoch8125 1qqààqàààaaaaaàà1a
Wow , really. I haven't heard from anyone having that in the last 70 years or so
I googled it and I was so wrong, there is like 7 thousand cases a year even more in 2020, wow, had no idea
@@brucegwynn8509 Rife in South Africa
I've never thought about the correlation between a consumption patient and how much they resemble drawings of vampires. That makes sense! I'm loving the Revolutionary War graves as well. Wish I could go back in time and meet a few of them. Great video! ❤️
I’d LOVE to meet them as well!!!
Been sick with lupus flare ups didnt have the energy to watch the recent posts now I'm catching up. Great work Ron 💞💖👍
Wishing you well 🌺
I have Lupus too. Hoping you feel better soon!
@@healinggrounds19 thank u so much. U know the everyday struggle that we go through.
love the old graves. thanks for bringing this unusual story to light.
Oh wow those dates are unreal!!! there are a lot of cemeteries in my home town of Milan, Indiana including a civil war cemetery that's is very small on a hill ,they put a guy there every 4th of July who stands watch all day . Would love to show you sometime .
Here in Kentucky there some so old you can't read , of course a lot too poor for them and its eroded rock ,family cemetery just a walk from here has some that old
WOW! If you are ever in Calif or New Orleans you should do a vlog on Gram Parsons. He was a signer that influence artist such as the Eagles. He found and got Emmlylou Harris her start. After his death his body was stolen and taken to the desert and burned. Him and his music should not be forgotten! RIP Gram Parsons!
Interesting indeed!
That was interesting, old myths were what they lived their lives by in those times, plus lack of our medical knowledge we have today. Lovely old cemetery with so much history. Thank you Ron. 🇦🇺
Ohhhh to be a fly on the wall back in those days! This was great Ron, thank you!
What a fantastic episode.The old tomb stones ate so fascinating
The way you narrate really brings these people back to life. It's a great thing. 😊
Etching of people's names, other details, date of death, etc still remains so clear on those stones. The lettering and decorations are painstakingly done and have withstood the test of time. Just fascinating to see!
Wow ron, I could stay in that Cemetery and look at all those pre Revolutionary war headstones from morning til closing, maybe even the next day as well!!! So much of our precious history there, that's priceless
Ron your art work is great! Some day you need to a short montage of your drawings.
Great info on interesting topic.
Thank you, and thanks for the feedback I wasn’t sure if people would like the animation but it seems like they do, so I will sprinkle it in once in a while
Superstition, mixed with American history,now that’s a recipe for some great stories! Thanks Ron
I was born and raised in the area. I got homesick watching this. It very beautiful. You do a wonderful job with your channel. You are an artist. There's alot of history up there
Thank you Debi. Actually I’m pivoting more to this kind of stuff; vintage stories.
I am here in New England now so I’ve got several of the like coming up -- developing more of my my artistic composition more and more, as I produce more episodes. I think you’ll like them.
Hi Ron. Great video. Beautiful place. Ignorance still remains a problem today. How sick these poor people were and they must have suffered for a long time before dying.
I always love seeing what band T-shirt you have on 🤣
Great, great video. I absolutely adore you. I was telling my husband, no one can tell a story like you. God bless!
He’s a great storyteller 😊
Even there’re dead. All those spirits are always there…” what amazing stories! Thanks for the information about this heroes . God blessed
I could walk all day, everyday in silence behind you listening and looking and all these old cemeteries, I walk the old cemeteries myself as the old gravestones are the most beautiful. Your passion really shines through with the work you do on your channel! BIG THANK YOU, I just found your channel, I'm addicted❤
glad u found us, welcome to our Gang!!
Ron, I am so glad you stopped at this cemetery!! 😁🦇🧛
Ron, great video and story and thanks for sharing. God bless you.
Great episode. Love the old ones. Hard to wrap your head around the fact they lived in the 1700s. That is almost 400 years ago - some were born. Can you tell me the brand of your 9000 flashlight?. I want to get one. Thank you for entertaining us and i am glad you didn’t get zapped by that electrical fence. You would have had to do the show in a soprano voice. 🤣
Looking forward to this. Sorry late ti this video Ron.
I love your videos. I could explore cemeteries all day everyday myself. And, thank you for being so respectful.
Loved the inserts there fearless leader....great show tonight 😎. Have a safe week traveling and finding more intriguing goulish stories for the FOTF GANG 💗🕊️
Glad you like the inserts, was looking for input. I’ll be doing that from time to time, when the context of the episode fits
@@FacesoftheForgotten awesome sauce ☺️
I feel really bad for the family that had loves ones dug up then had stuff like that done. I hope He at peace and I love vampire legend and at one time was into vampires a lot. What a background story lol. Great show I really did enjoy Sir Thank you so much. I also love old graves the tombstones that were made is amazing. The ones of today will not last to 200 years trust me on that story. Have a wonderful week. Until next time take care.❤🇺🇸
A little taste of home. So great.
I hope one day you can visit downtown Boston’s Granary Burial ground, where the fabled Mother Goose is buried and quite a few historical figures.
Kings Burial Ground is down from there on Tremont Street.
I miss the New England area so much.
I lived in Massachusetts till 2006 I've been to that cemetery full of history. I now live in Maine miss Massachusetts but Loves Maine
@@deboralavalley2577 When I lived there I took all that history for granted.
Now I visit and can’t get enough. I used to pass by the Old North Church everyday. I never cared. Now I’m amazed by it.
Maine is awesome too. History everywhere.
What an awesome video and story. I liked all the additional pictures and animation you did. I like spooky and eerie stories. You always have the history and facts. You're awesome.👍❤
Oh thanks for the feedback on the animation, I’ll do a little more of that from time to time here and there, when it fits the context of an episode. 👍👍
yes - I remember we children in school received the vaccination that was checked every year for what was then called Consumption for later Tuberculosis.
I had TB when I was 18. Never got to the point that I was coughing up blood, but I lost a lot of weight.
It was pretty neat to see the gravestones of soldiers from the Revolutionary War! People from that era could never imagine their resting places being filmed and viewed by people all over the world.
one of my favorite episodes here....never heard of the Corwin bothers case until now and im totally intrigued .....Strigoi folklore is the origin of most tales and cases like this, i hope someday you embark on european adventures ...this Vermont trip was so much fun thanks for takin us along sir......I predict you hit 100k subs before labor day brother ROCK N ROLL!!
ty 👍
Me neither the only case I heard like this is the Mercy Brown one
I absolutely love these videos! Thank you so much for all the work you do!
Great video ty R.I.P. to all in grave yard. You think back in those times I’m sure somethings happen like a new sickness un telling what those poor souls thought. Very interesting loved the older years on the tomb stone and to see what shape they are today amazing.
Interesting stories, thank you for sharing them,
Revolutionary War and times....what a find of a cemetery. I think these dates are the oldest I’ve seen you report on. The visual effects of the heart and fire are amazing. Brings excitement to the story.
Thanks again Ron for a great cemetery adventure!
Both my parents had TB and were in hospitals specific for Tb patients. This was in the 19 late 1930s early 1940s and each one had a long removed because of Tb
😮
This was awesome! I loved seeing the Revolutionary War gravestones, I live in Wa state so I can’t go to a place like that graveyard, but I can go to Pioneer cemeteries here!
The Revolutionary War stones were awesome!
Oh wow, that's an old cemetery, it's so interesting to see how far back a lot of those stones date back too. It's sad that so many people back then died so young due to all those different diseases that there were back then. I'm so glad you did this video Ron, getting to see those 200 year old gravestones was really nice. I enjoy getting the chance to learn about the history of the past. Stay safe on your trip Ron.🙂💟
Dang, they were like OH MY GOSH HE MIGHT BE A VAMPIRE
WE SHOULD TOTALLY EAT HIS HEART. THAT'LL WORK
So wild!
Strange times back then for sure.
Always enjoy your cemetery walks and story telling which brings the places alive 💕💕
This is going to be great
Very nice animation. I appreciate all the efforts and travelling that you are doing to bring us all of these amazing documentaries. Thank you sir.
I love the heart on the mason fire!!! Lol! That's great!
Wow Ron! Awesome video!! I love hearing all your stories. This one was especially outstanding. Thank you!
What a great cemetery! Thanks Ron!😮😊
Most anticipated moment!!!
Ready...set.....go!!!!
If you have any time, the Bowman mausoleum in Cuttingsville, VT is absolutely stunning and has a fascinating backstory.
Tuberculosis is very contagious. I could bing watch your videos all day long. Thank you for all the traveling and research u put into your channel to inform us and entertain I appreciate it.👍😊💖
Missed Yr vlog sorry I work nights had to go to bed was shattered but I'm catching up now looking forward to it
Thank you Ron! I enjoyed the video. That was so cool seeing all those really old gravestones. My grandmother had TB when she was young. I had no idea they actually performed a ritual by removing the person's heart and burning it in a forge and even sometimes eating it. Talk about ritual cannibalism. I'll stick to holy communion.
Excellent video. Absolutely beautiful cemeteries. Thank you for all the history and work you do. Cant wait for the next.
You're really cranking out a lot of videos! That's impressive! I've never heard the story of these brothers. There are certainly some old graves in that cemetery.
Yeah I was in Vermont, so I thought I would just do them all in sequence so people could stay attached to the overall location. This week I’m going to pump some out and then will go back to slowing down a little …ha ha Ha. Great to see you here Rhetty!!! 👍
This is some great history, Ron. Love it!
I have been a cemetery explorer as long as I can remember. My sister was my partner but she has passed away. I haven't been exploring since.
I’m sorry, Karen. I understand 🤗
You would make an excellent paranormal investigator, thanks for all the great stories and graves.
That was so interesting...Wowzers!
Excellent location for a spirit box session , so many ghosts. 😮
I just wanted to share that I love your channel
it is so interesting and fun
it gives me shivers sometimes lol !
But I am a crocheter and so I sit down with my crochet Project and I listen to your stories and I just enjoyed so much I thought I’d share
thank you
your friend Sue. 🧶
I can picture you doing that! What a wonderful way to be mindful instead of mind full 🌼
@@KimberlyLew thank you!
Greetings from Arizona! Thank you for this, Ron. Such great history!
Looking for a house right now in Tucson, can’t wait to get out there!!!
@@FacesoftheForgotten Tucson is close to where I grew up and is a beautiful city. You will love it there!
You will love Tucson! I moved to Tucson 6 years ago!
Great story Ron. Beautiful cemetery. A lot of old tombstones that actually are in great shape. Funny thing the bugs flying I’ve smacked my ears several times thinking they were buzzing me lol 😂
I always look forward to your next video
That was so interesting ! And loved the animations put in , gave me a fantastic excuse to stop the housework lol ! I actually am fascinated by vampires & have watched & read SO SO much on how they used to think people were vampires & put a stake through their hearts in the coffin , but I have never heard of the heart being taken to the blacksmith ! Amazing story & so well done , thank you as always 💜
Those headstones of our Veterans are just amazing!!!! thank you for sharing all these amazing trips!!
Great story … thx for sharing. Wish I lived in that adjourning beautiful farm!
Greets from Holland and the Philippines...i love your movies. About relgion...i believe its responseble for a lot of misery in this beautiful world. If you ever come to Holland or The Phillss. You can stay with us for free. Take care...Peter, Maritess and LG...Litlle Gerritje our son. 3-8-2021 at 02,30 dutch time.
Hello Peter and L.G. 👋🏼
Heard of this for sure ,thanks , keep the stories throughout time coming!
Hit the bell, but I’m really tired tonight (11:30pm in Sweden as I’m typing this) so chances are I’ll already be asleep and miss the premiere :( But if I sleep past the premiere, I’ll most definitely watch the video tomorrow when I wake up!
I totally get it, sorry we’re running so late.
@@FacesoftheForgotten It’s not a problem :) It is what it is with the different time zones of the world. Normally I’d be awake still at that time as I’m a hopeless night owl and my sleep pattern is more like American east coast even though I’m in Sweden (so Central European time) lol Just tonight I’m tired, blaming the recent weather change here, I can’t stand when it goes from nice and warm weather to cold and unstable and rain, and we’ve literally gone from a heatwave to only hitting mid to high 60’s within just a few days, and from drought to getting almost 40mm of rain just during one evening and night this week
Just loving all this history! Thank you Victoria!
Staying in an watching all the Halloween movies 🍿 an watching all these great Halloween episodes from You .That cemetery definitely has a Gothic feel to it .
Thank you Tommy the cat an Ron for this great tale . Always appreciate these episodes
Hi Ron, Fangs for this AWESOME video on vampires!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVED this!!
Take care and stay safe everyone!! XXXX
We’ve just had news of graves being robbed in Aussie. So disgusting. One being a mausoleum . All they have been taking is the skulls. There’s talk of it being for rituals but so awful for the families . TFS . These old graves are amazing are in great condition.
Incredible video, Ron! Thank you so much, this was very fascinating.
I love those hidden cemeteries. Such a peaceful place.
Love this episode, art work is fantastic and the way you tell is story is mesmerizing! Thank you!
You Sir are fantastical! I could listen to you all day! Great story telling , enjoy your channel so much! Thank you for sharing .😉☺️
Another great adventure!! Thanks for taking us along!!
Well that was spooky @ 27:30ish.. A man yelling..
The slate stones really are amazing and hold up really well.
A horse.. “yelling”
Lol
I would of loved to grow up & gotten to know this man, & then became close friends with him, as in fascinated by his work he does. From the research, to his travels, to these very old Cemeteries! 😊 Thank You again Sir! Great Channel!!! 👍
There is so much history in this cemetery. I liked the ending. Gave me absolute chills. So glad I did not live in those years💜💜💜
Im catching up on videos ive missed. Its great to back with yall!!
Waiting in anticipation ☺️
I think you Will like it!!
Oh, yes, very interesting! I love exploring cemeteries, especially historic ones. I've gotten my mother addicted to your channel too.
Remember, if you're ever near the east end of Kentucky, check out historic Dills Cemetery in Pikeville, the Octavia Hatcher monument in the Pikeville City Cemetery, and the various Hatfield & McCoy cemeteries.
Meanwhile, I'll keep climbing hills looking for ancestors' graves.
Be safe, & God bless you and yours!
