That sounds like a very nice headstone for your mom. It's a huge place with amazing history.

Excellent video. I was the police in that district (020) for 13yrs.I have been through every corner of that place at every time of day, even midnights. Never heard or saw anything. However, we did respond to an alarm call at night at the mausoleum. We were met with the keyholder and entered. As we approached the area where the alarm was triggered he stopped in his tracks as we all looked at an open door to the basement. He stated " I have the only key to that door and it was locked when I closed up earlier" I was ready to run down and hopefully get the life scared out of me but the prevailing Sgt. called for the dogs to investigate. OK, P.S. to the story. The dog handler said his K9 was going crazy at a couple areas (scent?) but he couldn't see or find anyone/anything....Who knows, that's my only story......

I wonder if anyone has ever been accidentally locked in there. The mausoleum is so big and it would be hard to find someone walking around in there unless there are cameras. I was worried about getting lost in there and locked in because it was getting close to closing time. It's a fear of mine... getting locked inside a building like that.

@@StrangeandSinister1 Good question, never to my knowledge but on a side note if you can get a look - we may have been lucky at the time (or in uniform) but inside/behind the chapel is a morgue or holding area as you described in the video complete with the sliding trays for the deceased. That was something to see. It is visible through the skylights behind the chapel on the hill if you decide to walk up there (it's underground) I was also told the train would drop numerous bodies from the war off. I believe they blocked off some of the pathways to the tracks besides the elevator that you showed.

This was back in the fifties and it already looked ancient then. I usually got caught but never stopped…😎

Thanks for the video. I live in the neighborhood where Roseland is located. It’s actually a lovely place to take a walk in the spring, summer and fall. Many beautiful big old trees and water features. They have tours of the cemetery on a periodic basis. The mausoleum is ominous to walk through but so very interesting from a historical perspective. Likewise if you walk through the cemetery with your phone and just search on some of the names you learn so much about Chicago history. Not just the big names but a lot of regular people and the story of their lives at another time. I’ve heard some of the stories about ghosts or hauntings, but have never felt anything on that level. It’s just a bit eerie when you are by yourself and it is a place with thousands of interred dead people. Lots of people use the cemetery to take walks or for running.

If you like old cemeteries, it's worth visiting.

The clown story made me immediately think of John Wayne Gacy.

It's definitely creepy... a mysterious clown running around a cemetery at night.

Is Gacy buried at Rosehill? I was a little girl in the 70's, but recall the murder cases. If the clown was real, it might be an employee with a strange sense of humor. I thought the ghost of Gacy as well, until the narrator mentioned the person was alive.

No, Gacy was cremated. The clown was a real person. A driver saw the clown at the cemetery gate late at night and took pics before it ran off. The encounter made Chicago news. If you google "clown at Rosehill cemetery" you'll see it. There's a video too.

Around the 2015 time, there was a bunch of sightings of people dressing as clowns across the country, scaring the crap out of everyone.

I think the clown sightings across the US were in 2016, but I could be wrong. I thought maybe it had something to do with the remake of the movie It, but that didn't hit theaters until 2017.

Thank you! It's a fascinating place with so many interesting monuments.

What's really scary is I'm buried there next to my cousins who died on the Eastland

Yes it's haunted. Ghost adventures would be interested in this.

why is the halo theme playing in the background? i keep expecting a covenant jump scare ...

Is incredible how the dead has more importance than the living. I'm looking for a place to live bc I sleep in my car and in the cemetery they get fancy buildings for them to just be there not doing nothing bc they dead... 🤦‍♀️

This is Evanston, correct?

Crawls out of Lake Michigan and crosses the road into the cemetery? It's a cool story. I'll definitely do a video on Calvary and feature the story some time. I'm gonna be doing some true crime videos but the channel will have a mix of true crime and haunted locations with some graveyard tour stuff.
