Memphis, Michigan
THE LEGEND: Memphis Cemetery is a small cemetery, so it is easy to miss. There is a narrow dirt road that
runs through the length of the cemetery. At the very back, in the center of the cemetery, there is a huge black marble stone
called the "witch's ball". If you get close enough you can see faces and shadows in the stone, just like a crystal ball. People
say voices have been heard and apparitions have been seen there.
Please abide by dawn to dusk regulations unless granted permission from local police department
to be here after dark.
Please do not copy our photos.

Memphis Cemetery
It was back in the fall of the year 2000 when I first visited the Memphis Cemetery. I again visited three more times in between the years 2000 and 2002. Then in the year 2007 I visited the Memphis Cemetery again after all those years of being away. It was the summer of 2007 and I was thinking about getting back into ghost hunting full time. I had all my investigating equipment and was ready to collect some evidence that I could go through. It was getting dark around 9:00PM that night. First I got out my digital camera and started taking some
photos. I got a few bugs, then, as the sun was almost gone I started to get some
orb photos. These were taken near the tombstone that looks like the civil war
soldier. I pulled out my tape recorder and started to ask questions. (This would later be scanned for EVP’s and such.) From
the start of the investigation things didn’t seem right. My camera was
taking more blurry photos then not. I started taking audio with my old analog
tape recorder. I asked the spirits in the graveyard to talk. I had all kinds of feelings such as hands touching my back, head, etc.
As the night progressed I had to change the batteries in my digital camera and in my cassette tape recorder. By 11:00 PM the spirits were pushing me out of the cemetery. Wherever
I would go it seemed as if I was being pushed out of the cemetery. I got the
hint by then and packed it in for the night. When I got home I put up my equipment
and went to bed for the night. The next day I was going through the audio tape. The voices on the tape started out very nice.
One said “hello”! Others said things like “Who are you?”,
“I am going to get you Steve” and other things I will not repeat in this recount of the investigation. Then as I was near the end of the tape a spirit that sounded very old and evil says to me “Do not
ever come back or we will kill you”. Then the cassette tape made a screeching
sound as it was eaten up in the old analog tape recorder. The photos got lost
in my old PC as well. Now all I can do is recount this story from memory as best
I can.
