After dark, lonely passers-by prefer to pass by abandoned cemeteries almost at a trot. From under century-old trees, hiding the dark unknown, they can easily call by name. Before a busy hearing of the midnight travelers can also be heard or chilling dog howl, or deaf moaning, as if coming from under the ground. Over such places often hangs thick fog, in which it becomes difficult to breathe and think that someone gently touches the face, cold hands...

As the dog from the dead fascist fought back

"The cross on the grave swayed, and quietly got up from her dried up dead. Beard to the waist

Hope you remembered a passage from the works of N. Gogol "a Terrible revenge". It's a wild imagination of the talented Russian writer or something more?

...This story happened a few years ago with a resident of the Bryansk region Nikolay Baskovym. Somehow in the autumn he went to the lake hunting and took a dog.

On the shore, where he was abandoned burial place of German soldiers killed in these areas in the years of the great Patriotic war, he came upon a small dip in the land, he deepened it, covered from top branches and decided to spend the night until the morning zorki, when ducks will begin to fly to the feeding. What you'll sleep in someone's grave, did not frighten him.

The night Nicholas woke furious barking dogs that sleep with him in the old grave. The hunter turned on the flashlight, looked around and saw that from one wall sticking out of someone's feet! The dog barked! His feet were moving and little by little come to the top, and then it seemed the trunk!

Nicholas felt the hair raise his hat on his head, grabbed a backpack and a gun and horror jumped out of the pit, forgetting about the dog. Otbiral one hundred meters from the devil's place, he stopped and, while continuing finely tremble with fear, listened. In the grave dog left by hunter to the mercy of fate, apparently, grappled with the Ghost or dead, or who was there and heard was that between them there is something terrible. Without the break we heard a terrible dog squeal and chilling roar, a little like a human. After another couple of minutes dog strange moaned and... subsided. In the still of the night he heard some Champ, but soon it stopped.

Nikolay all night, Smoking cigarette after cigarette, stood on the shore of the lake, and only with the dawn decided to go to the strange grave. Dogs it was not! Only pieces of wool covered the bottom. The wall of the tomb was whole, and signs that it was somebody out at night, completely absent.

Subsequently familiar psychic told Nicholas that he fell in with a real dead one, only cursed in life. The earth did not make this, and they come out of the graves and attacking the living. Well, the dog dead fascist killed not because he needed it, but because warned the owner and allowed him to run away...

Secret of the tomb of Afghan

Even more incredible case connected with reanimated corpse, occurred in one of the villages of the Volga region. That's how it was told the only survivors of the incident:

"Our team moonlighters built in the village, brick barn. Once brought to the village to bury the man. They said that after finishing school he went to study in the city, so it remained and, apparently, rose to great rank. For some diversity I went to the cemetery to see the funeral. There he met his friend Victor. When the coffin passed by the place where we were standing, I looked at the dead man. In my eyes ran chic gold ring on his finger. I thought, "What good will perish."

The rest of the day I always had the wild idea, and in the evening I shared this thought with Victor. I asked him to dig up the grave, to open the coffin and take the ring: the dead, he still is not necessary, as we can on him to "cut" good "greens". Buddy immediately agreed.

At midnight, and took the axe and two shovels, we went to the cemetery. Upon arrival, I decided to cheer myself vodka. Doing this for us and found saltovskiy on crosses of light coming out from behind the hill to the car. We involuntarily he dropped to the ground.

"The car stopped at the cemetery gates, he produced two human figures and headed in our direction. One of the night visitors, in the bright moonlight, it was well seen, was carrying a big bundle. At the grave of a soldier that died in Chechnya and buried two weeks ago, a stranger stopped and began to push and put wreaths in a heap. Then he unwrapped the parcel

Then happened what my hair stood on end. Unexpectedly strongly smell of ozone. It seemed that this smell swam near the waves, each time becoming thicker and thicker. And there He is! He emerged from the bushes just a few meters from us. A moment was to us sideways, then turned and headed towards our "colleagues". Judging by the attitude to the crosses, growth was definitely above average, neck, it seemed, was not, and the head was sitting on her shoulders. His hands hung down below her knees, but in thickness was equal to his feet, where he moved, not bending their knees. Our colleagues, not noticing it, continued zealously to wield shovels. And only when He got close to the grave of a soldier, they turned at once to his side and stood, frozen.

This silent scene lasted quite a long time. Then It, having made a step towards them and grabbed one of them and with a flourish planted on the jagged metal bars of a fence along the entire length of the spine. When the victim did not utter a sound, and the second was standing all in the same position and silently watched. Suddenly, as though coming to himself, he staggered backward and, swinging a shovel, with the force dropped it on the monster's head.

It would seem that such a blow It was to fall apart into two parts, but a shovel, not seeing the way any resistance, with a whistle pierced the air and cut deep into the ground, pulling the attacker. Monster abruptly flung out a hand and grabbed bent person per head. I heard a terrible crunching, followed by the thud sound. The poor man at once went limp and fell on his knees and fell over sideways right on the grave. Monster for a while stood in thought, as if assessing the situation, then took off as fluff, with the fence of the first, with the same ease picked up a second and, taking them by the arms, slowly withdrew into the depths of the cemetery.

First, in itself came Viktor. He's in a few jumps reached the fence, tripped over it and rushed to the side of the village, and after him - and I. In the morning I learned that my friend found hanged in his own yard

And I'm on the same day left in the city and in the village there".

Wandering dead

Parapsychologists claim that space meteorites, every day falling on the Ground, somehow affect her and called in its interior and atmosphere inexplicable from the scientific point of view processes.

Incredible events are happening today and in the Kursk region, in the village of semyonovskoye. Here at night from the grave up the dead wander through the village, scaring her appearance and published by the sounds of the villagers.

Not so long ago phenomenon interested researchers of anomalous phenomena of the Moscow group "Extrana". Here is told in this occasion one of the group leaders Century Calden.

"As we learned from locals, celebrations of the dead through the village start at around twelve-half twelve nights. Accordingly, we came to the cemetery at eleven o'clock. We explained that arise from the graves same dead, two men and a woman. Men died when they were 49 and 64 years, and the woman died at the age of 57.

Exactly twenty minutes to twelve, I heard some muffled noise and distinct roar, coming directly from one of our graves. I have included a powerful professional SoundFont capture and recording sounds at a distance of one hundred meters.

Gradually the noise and began to be heard from all three graves. Then one of them began to stir the ground and started slowly crumble inside. Our staff forgot his camera and looked at the grave, fascinated. When from this grave was lifting something shapeless, I also froze for a few seconds and then switched on the powerful army lantern. He heard a roar that have ears. The dead man did not expect a bright light, or maybe this light did him some impact, but somehow, he fell into the grave, and the earth itself began with back! I sent a beam of light on the other graves, and the roar from there also was heard all fainter and fainter, and then stopped.

As it turned out later, our photographer still managed a few clicks of your camera, when I pointed the beam at the dead man. But the pictures did not work, they were completely ServiceName. SoundFont also did not record any sounds, even monstrous roar..."

According to the employees of the group "Extrema", now they are preparing for a new, more prepared trip to Semyonovsky...

Experienced pathologists say that the "revival" of dead corpses can be explained from the scientific point of view. Sometimes, doctors say advised that the stiffness of muscles of the deceased is uneven. And then the dead as if they move: bend the arms, legs, head turns, opens and closes his mouth, lifted the body... Spectacle, of course, is not for the faint of heart.

Furthermore, the sequence reducetheir muscles, according to some experts, is stored in memory of the body, even after death. And if there is a request (from Whom or What is already the second question), "including" this memory, then begin truly wonders. Maybe it is this mechanism and should explain some of the many stories about the dead that is chosen from the graves and walking about the cemetery and surrounding area?

Chariots of fire and ghostly hedgehogs

Gnezdovo the mounds located near Smolensk, a well - known archeological monument. But local residents consider this place the "unclean". If at midnight here the lights, growing a strange noise.

A. perepelitsyn, coordinator of the Kaluga study groups of friends, has recorded more than a dozen stories about ghosts in this old cemetery.

One of the witnesses, who in childhood with their peers often arranged at Gnezdovo barrows night ambushes, said:

"At 2 a.m. heard the commotion. Looked out from our pits and see - through air races... the chariot drawn by fiery horses... terrified we began to run. Has not noticed, how has disappeared one boy from our group. Only in the morning they found him in the cemetery unconscious. After that night he never recovered and began to wither and soon died."

There is evidence meetings at the cemetery with a man and a woman in Golden robes. In their arms - a small child. At the moment of appearance of ghosts heard the cry. When approaching with figures they immediately dissolve in the air.

Here is an interesting testimony of a local resident of the Golden hen with chickens. Though quite often in these places appears chicken with a brood of 40 chickens, and once he even took a chicken in his hands, but he... slowly disappeared.

Another abandoned cemetery, which regularly appear ghosts, is located in Orel next to the train station right at the bridges spanning the Moscow highway. For many years here, no one is buried. There is virtually no normal preserved tombs. Rusty fence fallen so that it seems as if someone with superhuman powers were turned out of the land of metal constructions.

Many graves saped side to a depth of one meter or more. Maybe the efforts of local hunters, and can... restless souls are pulled out through these failures on white light.

The tenth one of the Oryol schools told that once a late summer evening it with a friend who is obsessed on mysticism, came to this cemetery. Cost them little deeper into the reserve of the graves as they heard a strange rustling from all sides. The guys noticed with horror that over the grass toward them crawl strange creatures similar to... hedgehogs. At top speed mystically minded couple rushed to the exit, but the branches of trees and bushes as if specially closed, preventing escape.

They escaped, but wow has clawed violently at the hands. Then wound somehow unusually long time to heal.

Night watchman guarding the territory located 40 metres from the cemetery, gypsum plant, convinced that the cemetery became restless, starting in may 1986, immediately after the Chernobyl disaster. Orel region is really sipped radiation, and, may be, it became a kind of impetus to the revival of the impure forces.

Orlovsky researcher of the paranormal Century Starodubtseva the watchman told, that the cemetery is haunted regularly visit and his booth. They appear once or twice a year, usually in July-August. For the first time it happened eight years ago. Then, rainy midnight, the door knocked softly. Guards, suspecting nothing, opened. On the threshold stood a withered old man, dressed in all black.

He never said a word, and only raised a bony forefinger of the right hand. In the nose hit the putrid smell. The light fell on his face and was reflected in... empty eye sockets. Watchman abruptly slammed the door before Ghost and immediately fell on the bed, exhausted. In a strange poluzabytogo he lay until the morning. Dogs, by the way, all night, not just barked, as if crying. In the morning the guard of one of the dogs were missing.

"After that, " he says, " I put in the corner of the icon and that's it "Holy water" was sprinkled. Since then, the "undead" only knock at my window or door. I get cross, and they disappear. I saw their shadows: there are many-headed dead, many-handed. And every time after such a visit disappears one of my dogs or cats. What do you do with them ghosts, I don't know."

Dwarfs in black smoke

Lydia Platonov, resident of the village of Kukmor, located in the Volga region of the Republic of Mari El, once went to pick mushrooms: "When I leaned down for another mushroom and raised up in front of me stood a man. He was dressed in a black coat, on his head was a black hat. The man was old, with a dark beard. He greeted me and started a conversation: "aren't you afraid one to walk in the forest?" Then they said they came from Petelski Church.

It was quite strange, because in the Church I have never seen him, and besides, the Church itself was surrounded mushroom forests is why he came to our area?

We talked a little more and went in different directions. But through the three steps I turned around and saw that the old man disappeared. He literally vanished into thin air."

In the village the case of an old woman commented without much surprise. The fact that a long time ago on the site of this Bereznyak was a cemetery.

Recently I have seen a strange phenomenon in the old Tatar cemetery residents of Ulyanovsk. Several nights in a row over the churchyard saw the pillars of black smoke, which, according to witnesses, goes straight from the grave! And this despite the fact that no heat pipelines under the cemetery is not. As one woman living near the churchyard, saw two ugly ugly dwarf. When they noticed a woman, then laughed inhumanly, and then disappeared in a cloud of black smoke.

On all saints cemetery Krasnodar many rumors goes about the grave Martha Tourischeva, who died on March 19, 1912. Over the tomb of a high gravestone in the form of a Greek columns.

According to local journalists, during the life of Martha Abramovna was fond of spiritism and was a medium. Possibly this is why they say that if at a certain time to get up near the grave and make a wish, it will come true. And in the new moon to the tomb better not go, you can see how over a grave face the Ghost of his dead wife.

"Bad” is a Piglet in one of the most neglected areas of the cemetery. He is practically no different from the surrounding landscape, but those who accidentally come here, almost immediately feel unwell, they dizzy. And if people quickly leave a dangerous place, the case could end up very badly. According to rumors, it is in the area of the cemetery in his time buried the dead from epidemics and contagious diseases.

The caution should wander and abandoned cemetery near the village Vlasivku Tula region. Last year two of the girls who came back from school after the second session. They walked through the cemetery and saw protruding from under the ground a small cross. Not realizing that one of the students kicked cross leg. The next day, the boy lost both legs...
