      I like Hollywood Cemetery a lot - very cool…especially this time of the year. I gotta say, the Halloween decorations in the Museum District are just next level! Way cool! Thanks for sharing.

    Vlogtober Day 28 What a fun day ! Lauren, We have been to Hollywood Cemetery and have never heard the stories of the people buried in the cementery as well narrated as you did.
    We need to take a tour with you. The homes decorated so beautifully for the season. WoW! The Harry Potter Exhibit was stunning. We got to get over there this week.
    Have to say this was our favorite blog for the month. It's right up there.👍👍 Sending you much love💚💚 from Jim and Harriet.
    P.S. We understand your touring Alexandria . Our niece owns a home there. Check out old town . Great shops and restaurants that are very vegan friendly. Have Fun !

    I have visited Hollywood cemetery a few times over the years. My great, great grandparents are buried there with a few other relatives. It really doesn’t seem like a cemetery. It’s beautiful, serene, and peaceful. There is so much history there told through the gravesites. I will probably pay a visit to my ancestors on Thursday. The day that the veil is thin. ❤

    That reminds me of Lakeview Cemetery in CLE. That is also a garden cemetery that was built in 1869. President Garfield and John D. Rockfeller are buried there. The headstones and mausoleum designs are very similar.

    Long time Richmond resident (3 score and 4) and Hollywood Cemetery lover. My Dad would take me there when I was young. I've always had a morbid fascination with old cemeteries because of that. I was disappointed that you didn't include the Newfoundland statue in your video though. Thanks also for the Halloween decorations tour. I usually do not get an opportunity to go out to see those.

      ​@@LaurenZRayso the interesting thing there is that families that purchase a large section but then go over 50 years without interring somebody in that plot forfeit their rights to the rest of the available spaces. I'm sure they preserve some plots in Presidents Row or other famous families, but that was how we got such a great view. Which sounds weird to say, but when we had my dads funeral last month it was calming to be able to turn around and just relax by looking at the river. Also of note, Hollywood is the only place other than the veterans cemetery that will bury European style, with the second person placed on top of the first to save space.
