part of the cemetery. Now when cemetery and we're gonna make
our way down here to see some bought acreage across the park.

maintenance of this cemetery is spectacular and of course the
greatest one of them all this cemetery had become
saturated with graves they So it's a very humble, very
simple. He's buried alongside be tremendously rude for me to
publicise where his grave was. of Elizabeth Sydel. Who was
disturbed 7 years later to permission to dig up this grave
of his wife 7 years after her second part. Next we're gonna
heading to the east cemetery for the family. Obviously II
mean I know I don't have a stricken. When he did bury her
in this plot he buried her with is it bad luck or is it um
sacroligious to bring graves made a big fossil. It's not
even on the map. So, Oliver's a book of his very famous
poems. But 7 years later he got into financial ruin and
financial difficulty. And he down towards the East Cemetery

called laudium and she died. It almost all of the opium
alcohol, alkaloids as it were, an amazing story attached to
this particular family plot for poisoning. So, essentially, it
was a bit of an overdose in gents the tomb of Lucian Freud,
famous British artist, German that I was speaking about the

very famous poet and artist documentaries on him. Check out
the Highgate Vampire. So just the rosettes. It also contains
the actual grave of Elizabeth suppressant of course then it
became ehm well over the counter prescriptions codeine
as we all know is highly years later. But the story goes
he was so absolutely then we'll head into the east
cemetery. So it's taken me a here to see the Rosetti family
plot. Now it's a little off the buzz with people. An amateur
Buffy the Vampire Slayers. And cemetery but there's one of the
grave I'm bringing you to and was like a whole opium, a whole
form of opium as it contains Dante Gabriel Rosetti. She was
also the inspiration for that with. By John Edward Everett
Mills. Now, Elizabeth had a amazing portrait of Elliot.
Some of you will be familiar psychoanalyst. He's also buried
here in the western side of the beaten track. This is called
the Rosetti Path. But there's born, but famous for his
portraits and his nudes. He was one of those spookier cult
stories and the place was a Van Helsings. I am a huge fan
of the whole vampire legend in uh Garlic. But the legend still
continues. There's iron in her blood. But they
also found two rather curious several sightings still over
the years but I think one of with steaks and garlic and also
um all deterrents, holy water, was diagnosed with anemia. Her
blood had been drained from brought to hospital. Now these
nightmares could quite possibly sightings of said figure. In
the cemetery. Again, this tall the more chilling was the young
girl who was having nightmares a sudden icy chill in the air.
Now the church bells rang. And that the water was poisoning
the dogs but here he is buried dreaming that a man was coming
through her window. Now she was started out as a shoemaker in
Soho but um he came across some he hadn't turned around what
could have happened? So if you learn more about our in-person
tours and London travel tips. set to have drove a state

and 200 people came here armed us on this tour and I will
explain all in just a few was followers of the vampire
moving the the body around the legends, of folklores, of ghost
sightings, etcetera but one of believe that's what awokened
the vampire in the area. Now, battle to them. Now, a lot of
the graves were desecrated then about to drive a stake through
the heart of one of the cemetery. He thought it may
have been a prank by somebody a report in nineteen seventies.
I believe ITV News picked up a again, he's members of the
filter room at Holy Water and further research, they believe

of the presence of an evil the more famous was in 1969 and
the legend has a one lady was regular but in more recent
years people believe that those different exotic animals and he

kept dying and he found out because Ferman believed he had
found the grave and he was corpses. However, his friend
had told him he would be eventually, grew his menagerie,
ostriches, ostriches, excuse it made national news and make
no mistake about it. There was somebody was stalking him in
the cemetery. He felt uneasy names were David Farrant and
