Haunted Places: Park

  • Park

    Stow Lake

    Golden Gate Park's Stow Lake dates to 1893, and the news site SFGate calls its White Lady, a mother said to beg passersby to help find her baby, San Francisco's most famous ghost story.

  • Cemetery

    Couch Tomb

    When Chicago moved its old City Cemetery out of what became Lincoln Park, thousands of bodies may have been left behind. By the 1880s, the tomb that still stands there was said to hold a white ghost behind its doors.

  • Cemetery

    Denny Park

    Seattle's first municipal cemetery stood here until 1884, when some 223 burials were moved to other cemeteries. Around 1930, the final regrade of Denny Hill lowered the park about 60 feet.
