Greenlawn Cemetery

Greenlawn Cemetery is a huge place, (8,000 + square acres)sprawling across southern Columbus, south of the 70/71 exchange.
Contained within are several haunted sites, including Gay's Mausoleum, Hayden's Mausoleum and the small swamp in the middle of the cemetery.

There are several ghost stories, but none really verifiable; statements involving an unknown grave, a witches tomb, murder victims and a lost little boy that died but whose body was never found in the cemetery, are numerous.
I am puzzled that there are not many more stories, given the number of people laid to rest here. This is in all likelihood the largest cemetery in Ohio, and yet it sports the fewest ghosts. Cemeteries that are much smaller, containing maybe a dozen or so graves claim numerous ghost stories.

Greenlawn is so large, that you could easily spend several hours in there and still not see everything. Getting lost is also a very likely possibility unless you know where you are.
