Description

The Pumpkin Patch Burying Ground | King's Chapel, Boston MA

Step through the wrought-iron gates with The Grim as host Kristin explores King's Chapel Burying Ground—Boston's oldest cemetery and one of the most actively haunted sites on the Freedom Trail.

Once a humble pumpkin patch, this colonial burial ground has held nearly four centuries of grief, history, and restless spirits. From John Winthrop and Mary Chilton Winslow to William Dawes, the "other" midnight rider, extraordinary figures rest here—but not all rest quietly.

Discover the Headless Madam, the man buried alive, Captain Kidd's hidden grave myth, and the spectral children who wander after Victorian grave rearrangements moved headstones—but not bodies.

A chilling journey through one of Boston's most storied, spectral sites—where the dead never rest quietly.
