Gravestone Stories Novels & Stories

“This coin you see here is one of eight hundred eighty-two identical pieces that the royalist supporters delivered in a stone chest to Don Fabello himself. Blood money was paid to stop the slaughter he wreaked upon them with his armies. But the Don's greed was insatiable and so the heathen gods placed upon the gold a terrible curse. Any mortal that removes even a single piece from that stone chest shall be punished for eternity.” When the group heard another story commonly shared among mariners, they were not sure whether to believe it or not. "I hardly believed in ghost stories anymore." Jace, seemingly bored to hear another folktale, thought his whisper was inaudible. In his head, he was s

The graves' stories now held a deeper significance – not solely as markers of lives past, but as emblems of a larger struggle against corporate greed and environmental degradation. ‌ As they retraced their steps towards their lodging, Carlin and Vanya were infused with a renewed sense of purpose. The tales they had unearthed, from the villagers' hardships to the ecological consequences, formed a mosaic that begged to be unveiled to the world. ‌ "Who would have thought that a cemetery held such hidden truths?"

“Have you forgotten what Miss Agatha taught us? She said a graveyard is the most silent place in the entire world.” “Oh. I get it now.” Smiling at my babies, I hurried after Dashiell. The winding path took us through rows of weathered headstones. Each one told a story of love, loss, and remembrance. I noticed the varying sizes and shapes, some grand and ornate, others simple and humble. The names, dates, and epitaphs blurred together as we passed by, but one grave stood out in my mind—the one we were approaching. Willow asked more questions as we advanced towards the place Mama Kaka was, and I explained some of them. They were eager to know more about the place and I answered to the best of

Still, I don't have any idea why? A strange silence enveloped us when his black SUV halted to stop. My heart was beating nonconstancy rising up and down against my willpower. The scene was dead as our mutual understanding. There was not even a single house, not the stars were gazing at me, nor was the wind mildly floating in the air. Only a hunting scene was there to greet me in its power. There is something strange about this world, and more than that something strange about gravestones, They stood so cruelly, strangely against the wisdom of the modern world without expressing their truth.

They were not the only ones in the cemetery, other people were there, mostly dressed in black just like she and Julie were. The sound of the outside world was muffled when they entered through a door that led to a big field where the graves were. They moved slowly, reverently, between the graves, Megan's eyes were drawn to the rows of headstones, each one a silent marker of a life once lived, now memorialized in weathered stone. The inscriptions, etched with care, told stories of love, loss, and the fleeting nature of the short time on earth. They stopped when they reached a particular grave. The name written on the headstone was Esther Sallow, underneath her name was the date of the year sh

PETER DENTON ANDREWS 1981-2030 Beloved Friend & Hero CAROL 1987-2030 Beloved Friend & Hero A week after the apocalyptic event, two gravestones stood erect above the earthly ground and the inscriptions above had been carved on them. The stones glistened slightly in a glossy fashion as rivulets of water droplets trickled down them due to the light shower that precipitated from the grayish clouds that morning. The cemetery at Brookhaven was packed with people dressed in black—all of whom were standing somberly—a few of them with umbrellas quivering over them.

It would have to be a huge coincidence. Many of the vampire legends seemed to have a common theme: a vampire was created when someone died in a disturbing way, for example by murder, suicide, or disease—or when someone died a sudden, unexpected death. This was especially the case if the person was a low soul, such as a murderer or thief.

“Speaking of things that go bump in the night, did you hear about that thing in the graveyard over in Higganum?” Leesa’s heart rate spiked again as the images from her dream came rushing back to her. Higganum was a small rural community less than ten miles south of Weston College. She hoped Cali wasn’t going to say what she thought she was going to say. “Graveyard?” she asked. “No, I didn’t hear anything.” She was almost afraid to ask about it, but she had to know. “What happened?” “It’s really freaky. Someone dug up a bunch of bodies, and then left ‘em lying right there on the ground.”
