Cuyahoga County Ohio Ghosts and Hauntings - Erie Street Cemetery


 

Erie Street Cemetery
Cleveland, OH 44115

Less than 9 acres, Cleveland's oldest surviving cemetery holds over 8800 bodies.

The land was purchased in 1825 and is home to Jac-O-Sot, a Native Indian who fought the US and then became a fishing guide along the Lake Erie shores. He was buried in Erie Cemetery and some say he wanted to be buried elsewhere so his ghost walks within the rock walls. Shadows of ghosts have been seen darting around, especially near the mausoleums.
