New Hampshire's historic graveyards, from Portsmouth to North
Conway, have bizarre and eerie stories to offer their visitors.
Graveyards often invoke fear and superstition among the living, but
the dead who rest within them may have more to communicate to the
world they left behind. The sands of Pine Grove Cemetery in Hampton
once concealed the tombstone of Susanna Smith, but now its
message--which reads simply "Slaine with thunder"--and her story
have risen from beneath the soil. The Point of Graves Cemetery in
Portsmouth is home to the spirit of Elizabeth Pierce, who beckons
departing guests back to her grave. Along the state's southern
border in Jaffrey, tombstones at Philips-Heil Cemetery caution the
living to cherish life. Author Roxie Zwicker tours the Granite
State's oldest burial grounds, exploring the stones, stories and
folklore of these hallowed places.
