Very old cemeteries are quite interesting but if you want that uneasy feeling I suggest visiting a pet cemetery. I'm not sure if it's the tiny head stones marked "fluffy age 8" or the thought of the owners going to so much trouble over a cat that creeps me out.

Love cemeteries
been to some really impressive ones and some really old ones,
creepy we have a lot of around here as some are from 100’s years ago.
also been to load of WW1 battle field cemeteries and visited old battle fields, now that makes your hairs stand up.
also have done a number of ghost paranormal stuff at cemeteries.
And other stuff
Nah. There just sad, interesting or fun depending on what i am doing there. Fun be like drinking and hanging in a cemetery. Interesting and sad be reading people's graves, people i've never met but still there story is told or it isn't sometimes there is little left but still makes me think.
No, they're really peaceful places. There is a cemetery close to where I live, and I go there often, just to look at the names on the tombstones. Cemeteries are places that restore proper priorities and perspectives, that jolt you back to the reality that no matter what you do during your time on earth, it will eventually all end here.

Nah they acutally make me feel safe for some weird reason
Honestly cemeteries feel more sacred to me than churches do. There's a certain energy and peace that can be found.
With that said there is only one cemetery I've never gotten that vibe from. Don't know why but I refuse to get anywhere close to it. It's not a creepy thing just a hell no thing.During the spring, summer, and fall months I can be found in several cemeteries taking pictures for FindAGrave. com. as well as for my own project of laying flowers, posting a marker and a flag on my Coast Guard and Lifesaving Servicemen and women. I take care of 400 graves.
No, actually just visited one this Sunday. Drove by and saw, stopped in to read a few stones with my boyfriend. we also visited one in New Orleans.
I find it interesting to know a little about the history.
I don’t watch scary movie for that exact reason. Turns some nice things to s story.
I also like think snakes are really cool.. many fear themNo, generally they don't scare me. I don't believe in ghosts or anything, so there's not a lot to be afraid of. I wouldn't be happy to spend a night there though, especially not at an old one without any lights, because I'd be a bit afraid that I could meet some creep.
For the most part they do not creep me out. During one of my times being homeless, I actually slept in one because most people will not step foot in a cemetery at night. However, there is ONE cemetery that I cannot step foot in. Anytime I go in there, everything feels evil around me. Every time I've attempted to visit this cemetery, I've been injured somehow. I'm not a clutz so this was weird.
Cemeteries are really cool especially the older ones dating really far back. On the other hand Do You Know Why Cemeteries Have Fences Around Them? Because people are dying to get in.
Cemeteries are a place that requires a certain level of respect. You need to enter it with the presence of mind that you with be respectful to everything within. I consider entering one in the middle of the night or taking dirt from a cemetery to be disrespectful and whatever happens to you after doing that is on you.
I enjoy going for a stroll through cemeteries, any type since there are different ones. I've done some paranormal investigations in them, very interesting ✌️
Not until I actually went to one there's nothing creepy about cemeteries but very depressing to see a loved one being lowered into their grave it doesn't creep you out when you have feelings related to the place if anything it's peaceful just cold air blowing in a quiet place.
They don't creep me out at all. If I were to find myself in a cemetery at night, I'd be a bit scared but that's mostly because of the added element of darkness.
Some alive people creep me out and scare me. Cemeteries no. There is no reason to be scared of the ones who eternally sleep.
Those who are live among us are the scary ones.- u
What's to be creeped out about? The faithful departed should be appreciated and revered.
I spent a lot of time visiting war grave cemetery sites as a teenager. I was fascinated in the world war one cemeteries to see how extremely young the soldiers were - youngest I found was 13. It was difficult to see them.
Nope. I used to bicycle home through a cemetery at night, in the dark.
I wanted the exercise so I would bicycle to this group I met with instead of driving because it was close enough. About 30 minutes each way.At might they may be more scary, but by day they are mostly just sad. Sometimes the dates of death (too young, or a particular war or other tragic situation) tell a sad story in and of themselves.
I live right beside an old Catholic cemetery in the woods, grew up beside it, so nope doesn't bother me. I sometimes takes walks and just sit on the bench and read there. I find it very peaceful.
I was born across the street from a cemetery. And I’m not afraid of dead things (even though I have a strong dislike towards it) . I respect that they left their earthly bodies behind, and that it’s nothing but an empty shell of something that was once full of life. To me , cemeteries are empty for that reason , I’m only afraid of the weirdos that lurk their at night.

Yes they do. I know death is natural and it happens to all of us, but cemeteries are still a scary place for me.
I can see a cemetery from my living room window. No, they're a neat place to hang out in. I kinda feel at home there tbh. But I'm also the kind of person who would spend the night in a haunted house for fun so.. 🤷♀️
