Geocache Description:


An absurdly decrepit, easily overlooked cemetery in New Philadelphia is one of that town's best-known haunted places. The fenced-in plot is located at the corner of Ridge Road and University Drive, and it's only recognizable as a graveyard if you open the gate and step inside. Otherwise, the flattened headstones are obscured by the surrounding grass and other greenery. Rehobeth Church stood here from 1850 until 1877. One stone in particular is the focal point of the legends: a black rectangle near the back of the enclosure. They say a warlock is buried here, and they also say that his head was cut from his body and secured into the black stone. Reuniting the two parts will cause him to rise from the dead. My advice is to leave him alone. But that might not be enough; according to the myth, each year the two parts inch closer to one another, subject to the irresistable pull of his will even 100+ years after his death. When the two parts meet and his head mounts his shoulders once more, he'll emerge from the grave and wreak warlock-y havoc on New Philadelphia. Or so they say. It is also rumored that teenagers would come up here at night on dares. They would come up at night and do things to the grave or mock the Warlock. Then bad things would end up happening to them in the near future.

As always NO NIGHT CACHING! Not that you would want to. BYOP. Replace as found. Be respectful to the area. Be aware of your surroundings and creepy noises and spooks. Enjoy
