HAUNTED & ABANDONED Wardsend Cemetery Sheffield UK - GHOSTS CAUGHT IN GRAVEYARD
All photos were captured by myself
Wardsend Cemetery is an abandoned Victorian cemetery on the the Owlerton district of Sheffield, England, consecrated by the Archbishop of York in 1859 and closed to legal burial in 1968.
The ground on which the cemetery stands was originally purchased by John Livesey in 1857, the Vicar of the nearby St. Philip's Church as an overspill burial ground.
The first burial at Wardsend was of a 2-year-old girl named Ann Marie Marsden in 1857. She is, in keeping with tradition, the Guardian of the Cemetery.
The graveyard is also noteworthy for being the final resting place of George Lambert, a highly decorated Irish soldier, for holding graves of many victims of the Great Sheffield Flood of 1864, and being the only cemetery in Britain with an active railway line passing through it.
Sheffield Archives offers much material on the history of the cemetery, perhaps most significantly a detailed narrative account of the 1862 riot and subsequent court hearings entitled Extraordinary Doings in a Cemetery in Sheffield by Ivor Haythorne,]and a 2013 dissertation project (heavily influenced by the history from below movement spearheaded by E.P. Thompson and George Rudé) called Crisis of Confidence: The Public Response to the 1862 Sheffield Resurrection Scandal by Jordan Lee Smith.
1862 Riot
On the evening of 3 June 1862 the cemetery was the location of a turbulent riot by angry Sheffield citizens, against accusations that the Reverend John Livesey and his sexton Isaac Howard were neglecting to bury corpses, and instead selling them to the town's medical school for use in anatomical dissection. The rumours were proven false and Livesey and Howard were instead fined by York Assizes for reusing graves in order to save space. However both were later paid compensation for the damage caused to their property during the riot, and Livesey was reinstated as the Vicar of St. Philip's Church.
Today Livesey Street, now home to the Hillsborough campus of The Sheffield College as well as the back entrance to Owlerton Stadium is named after the Reverend Livesey.
A memorial stone at the nearby Walled Garden in Hillsborough Park alludes to the unrest; it is a stone four feet long by 18 inches wide, designed to lie flat on the ground and cover a grave. The inscription reads:
To the affectionate rememberance of Frank Bacon.Who departed this life April 2nd 1854, aged three years.Also Louis Bacon aged four months Buried in Wardsend Cemetery April 12th 1858.And was one of the many found in 1862. Who had been so ruthlessly disinterred

This Investigation I investigate the infamous Wardsend Cemetery in Sheffield United Kingdom. The Cemetery was opened in the early 19th century and closed in the late 1960s. The cemetery has long been left to ruin and nature has literally taken over.
When the investigation started I originally thought I was communicating with a child, later things take a turn for the worse. When calling out using the Ovilus device something came through calling itself SATAN and later the device picks up the word KILL.
After this I seem to get attacked by a unseen force. This has left me shaken and I have no explanation for it! This investigation has been a real eye opener for me.

The final burial took place in 1977 and the cemetery was officially closed in 1988. It has been increasingly neglected over the years and has become a haven for wildlife.
