Description

Step through the haunted gates of Tolomato Cemetery with The Grim as host Kristin explores one of St. Augustine's most historic and ghost-filled burial grounds.

Beneath ancient oaks and Spanish moss rest displaced Guale Indians, Spanish settlers, Menorcan refugees, Cuban priests, and restless souls who never found peace. Once a Franciscan mission site, this cemetery holds over a thousand souls—victims of yellow fever, premature burials, and dark colonial history.

Discover the hauntings:

  • The Rebel Bishop Augustin Verot—whose explosive funeral left the dead refusing to rest
  • Venerable Félix Varela—Cuban priest and freedom fighter whose spirit lingers
  • The Lady in White—saved from premature burial, still wandering the grounds
  • Little James Morgan—a child ghost in the branches of his favorite oak

Open to the living only hours each month—but the spirits appear far more often.

📍 Tolomato Cemetery, St. Augustine FL
 ⚰️ Founded: 1777
 👻 Open once a month—haunted every day

Perfect for: St. Augustine tourists, paranormal seekers, Spanish colonial history enthusiasts, ghost hunters

🎧 Descend with The Grim into America's oldest city's most haunted cemetery.
