6:04 Interesting a lot of people don't know why rocks are placed on headstones, especially those with a star of David atop the name. In the Jewish religion, it is said that one leaves a rock on top of the headstone of a loved one. The rock represents love. No matter how many times you break down a rock, it is still a rock, even at its most miniscule state of being. Thus, love cannot be destroyed. Always touches me when I'm in a cemetery and see a headstone with rocks on top. Thanks for showing this place!

Does anyone else like to frequent or "hang out" in cemeteries? I find them blissfully serene and a great place to contemplate anything and everything. They are often some of the most beautiful places with the mausoleums, statues and grounds features. I loved to element that the different animals add in Hollywood Forever. I would love to pay my respects here personally one day.

I use to for awhile. I was intrigued by some of the statues etc and it was interesting to see the old grave dates. But I've encountered so many haunted ones that it's quite disturbing from experiences i had including sometimes when friends were with me we all heard/saw the same. I learned a lot from that but since then it's really rare for me. I only visit tourist attraction ones now beside family. When i was most interested in visiting a few random ones i was experiencing death and renewal in my life. So it was like symbolic for me. And I got over it so lost my interest. I tell you what though... I use to live in Chicago and I visited a few there. Turns out Oscar Myler ( sp)... You know the sandwich meat guy... Was buried near by my apt. After I saw his grave I can't buy or knowingly eat any meat from this company.

Those peacocks are gorgeous. I love it when you can encounter wildlife in cemeteries (deer, squirrels, rabbits).
Outstanding. The last time I visited Hollywood Forever, it was still Hollywood Memorial Park. It was in a sad state of repair, but still pretty remarkable. I’ll never forget the creepy feeling I got walking around inside the Cathedral Mausoleum, as if someone or something didn’t want me there. I also remember the strange sounds near the crypts of Victor Fleming and Darla Hood, like tapping up above your head. I’ve always heard the place was haunted, and I’d have to say I agree. I’m so glad the current owners have restored the place to its former grandeur. Great, respectful work, Adam…

I went last year my friends and i felt something unwelcoming too in the Cathedral Mausoleum. We unanimously decided to turn around and leave without even discussing what had occured until we got back to the car. Spooky for sure
So many names there that shaped my outlook on storytelling. I appreciate all of their contributions. Judy Garland, Charlie Chaplin, Victor Fleming, Mel Blanc, Mickey Rooney... What a great way to remember them. So sad about Anton Yelchin... Taken too soon. :-(

This was really well done, thank you. Living in Australia, there is no way I can visit the graves of Hollywood legends so I sometimes watch these videos. Most speed up the footage and race about but you give viewers time to see things properly. I’m sure I’m not the only one who appreciates that. Thank you.
Both awesome and respectful - nicely done, Adam

I toured that cemetary back in the late 80s. I was surprised to see the "newer" sites of those interred since then. Thanks for including the brief look at Hattie Man It's memorial. The former owner refused interment to any people of color, and known Jewish. Sad that discrimination has to follow even in death. I maintain the best headstone/memorial is Tyrone Power's. It's architecturally and esthetically pleasing, functional and non egotistical. A bench with books piled. As I was told, he was an avid reader, and had a say in how he'd like it to look.

I remember when Darren McGavin was at the Federal Building in West LA to do location shots for “The Night Stalker” (a lot of location shots for movies, TV and commercials were filmed there). He was very friendly, and a good-looking ginger, and made my day! Thanks, Adam!
The view inside the first mausoleum is mind blowing. It just amazed me how many people are interred inside just this building alone. Can't imagine how many. Hundreds, I imagine. Stunning.
The cemeteries are very much on my list for April... As morbid as it may seem to some, the amount of history that is distilled into such a small area is just mind-blowing

My wife's parents have their gravesite here! I met Darren Mc Gavin as a kid on the set of Ironside, he shook my hand, smiled, and said, "hello young man", and then walked on. My mom worked at Universal Studios in the 1960's, and sometimes she'd take us on a self-guided tour of the empty TV sets.

Rocky III scene was awesome.It’s amazing what history you can learn by just walking through a graveyard. I especially enjoyed history of a Hollywood graveyard. Great video man
Great video Adam. A peaceful somber reminder on Valentine's Day to always tell those in your life that you love them. Everyday. We never know what day will be our last. Live by actions, always strive for kindness.
What a peaceful video. Thanks Adam.
I started going as a teenager in the 1980's. We would always Hope to see the 2nd "Lady in Black" She would leave flowers at Rudolph Valentino's crypt. I got to see her only once, that was alot of fun.
Thank you for your continued journeys. One of your first videos I watched was a cemetery video. It was curious to me about notable people's burial places, and you were one of the few vloggers that were respectful, and I admired that. Two years later I am still watching. I admire all your material and adventures.

Great video, Adam!! I'm sorry to see that the cemetery is getting a little run-down. The grass around the grave stones needs to be edged, Rose Bushes Cut Back, etc etc. Just after the Cassidys bought that place from Jules Roth's company they really made it look wonderful..putting millions of dollars into restoring the cemetery. I hope everything is o.k. and they're still doing well.
I love how respectful your videos are, I've spent the last few days watching many of them, your doing a great job sharing the world with us Adam, I can't wait to see where else you go! My favorites are your adventures though LA and Disneyland! My heart is lost somewhere in Socal, your videos help so much when I'm missing home! Thank you!
I adore "The Wizard of Oz" and although it had several directors tied to the project, Victor Fleming got the credit in the end. He was known as the "fix it" director. When "Gone with the Wind" needed help, they called him and he left Oz and the rest is history.
Mel Blanc was super talented guy, and went to high school here in Portland ..wow this was such a awesome vlog, great work Adam, you rock so much! 😎
That was so fascinating! Love cemeteries! But this was beyond a regular cemetery! Thank you for having us visit with you!
What a beautiful place. So many people whose work I so admire. Gotta say though, Chris Cornell still breaks my heart to see gone. I guess it always will, I'm a huge fan. Thank you so much for sharing, and for letting me visit, even just on KZread and not in person. Great vlog.

I never did explore this one much..so thanks for this great video... They certainly have improved the old place. I grew up down the road & worked in a different business in media .... My Dad became a funeral director elsewhere. Great tour of this one.
