The view of the sea is so incredibly beautiful! Never expected to see so many people out enjoying a cemetery, how wonderful to see!

I know this graveyard well. You mentioned the stone with 'Mafter Mariner'...in the 18th and early 19th centuries, 's' was often written like an 'f'. If you go inside St Mary's Church here, you can the same thing on large painted boards with prayers and so on written on them. It's fascinating. Great tour!

I enjoyed this walk - thank you. The plaque about the couple that were born, married and and died all on the same date was amazing!

I know the cemetery well. Spent many hours reading the tombstones as a child. Last time I was there was 1984...I miss it

My arthritic knees are saying "Eff That!" In regards to those 199 stairs at the end!'😄

Awesome Video,.. And I love this cemetery

Whitby is a wonderful place.. Great walks and I often get in car on my nights off and take my Dog Alfie for a day out.. It really is a beautiful and interesting graveyard.. Thanks for a smashing Share, might have a ride out there on Sunday! Kaz 🌻

gorgeous! thankyou for sharing! im jealous! i would love to visit an old cemetery like that. nothing remotely like it where i live! 🖤💀🖤💀🖤

Going to whitby in two days for my birthday. So excited

Very cool cemetery! THe age is amazing!

Awesome view of the sea beside the graveyard

That’s a rather large cemetery, lovely view of the ocean. Gorgeous views! Loved this video, thanks for another great walk.

Beautiful old cemetery! Wow....Just watching you and others going up all those steps about wore me out! haha. Thanks so much, my friend. 🎃

I love whitby especially the goth weekends being a goth myself it's a beautiful place to visit haven't been for a while but this brings back memories thanks for the vid love it

Nice video! I've never seen repairs done to so many stones. Very interesting! Thank you for sharing this.

This was absolutely incredible. The stones weathered so differently than what I see locally. The "noodles" were unbelievable. I wouldn't have made it to the top of those 199 steps without many stops along the way. I can understand the need for the coffin rests along the way. The view from the top was breath taking. I enjoyed this so much. Thank you for sharing.

That is one busy place! Looked like a beautiful day!

Such a beautiful beautiful place! Englands history is stunning..

Grave stones are sad, but very beautiful at the same time. I love the creepy ones the best. Lovely cemetery. Same not all people respect it.

I find it astounding and incredible that Francis and Mary Huntrodds were born on the same day, married on one of their birthdays, and died on their 80th birthdays five hours apart, in an era when the average life expectancy in England was approximately 36 years in the 17th century. In fact it was 35 years in 1600 and 37 years in 1700 respectively. Remarkable!

Been here lots of times as I live here and it never gets old

Great, thank you! I know Whitby very well but since moving to Canada I haven't been able to visit. This video brought back some great memories.

Wow what a beautiful view from the cemetery looking out to the sea. It was a beautiful day but for the spooky view. Just look out to the water and what she has claimed is in the ground. Great video and you have a very nice voice too. 🇺🇸

Memel, East Prussia, Germany, now Klaipėda, Lithuania. Beautiful old Cemetery by the sea. I'm sure the salt water and air have weathered these stones a lot. A lot of the stones look like they are sandstone...not a very hard stone. All things considering, given their age they are amazing stones with gorgeous designs. Such history here ...thank you for sharing !!

It’s good that they are repairing the tomb stones. And the cemetery looks maintained.

What a great video right before Halloween 😊🎃. Thanks 🙏👍

Whitby (and the St Marys/the abbey) are one of the most beautiful places I've ever been to; Whitby is 100% my happy place. I go once a year and can't get enough of the stunning views and the atmosphere. There's also a lovely clifftop walk that goes from just by the graveyard on towards the old lighthouse. You can go further onto Robin Hoods Bay if you fancy a longer walk 😊

This place is magnificent and the stones are beautiful! I’m excited to find the channel I’ll be binge watching the coming weeks 😮

one of the most beautiful old graveyard yet with a view of the sea they loved... thanks for the awesome tour ❤️

Wow awesome watch ⌚.

Oh how I adore Whitby. Ever since I read Dracula as a child. Also happens to be where I had the best fish & Chips I've ever eaten! I'd like to retire there when I'm older.

Beautiful graveyard, thank you for the walk. Might help if you slow down a bit so we can check out the headstones.

Ancient Cemetery, I like your channel very much

What a nice walk & beautiful cemetery. The sky is so blue. 🇲🇾

Uuuhhhh....I'm looking forward to it...🤩 ....when the ground moves...run 🙈😅

Bet this place well spooky at night Especially sea fog great place filming old horrors

With reference to the inscription on the gravestone of Robert Cooper, Master Mariner. At that time the font for S was the 'Italic' f. The stonemason carved it correctly.

Very Halloween with the deep breathing at the end 😂

Puget Sound is just to the south of me, on the American side. I'm on Vancouver Island, so it's closer to Seattle. That guy was a long way from home. I always like to check out graveyards when I'm in the UK. There's so much history.

Wow, im so amaze, so many tombs. I hope can visit this place one day. Thank you for the video dude, nice camera by the way 😊

when it says Mafter,, the f is the old way of doing an S. xx

Am looking forward for this walk just can't wait

Beautiful Whitby 🖤

"Mafter Mariner" is not a mistake. In the 18th century, the letter 's' in the middle of a word were printed and inscribed (as on tomb stones) as what looks like a letter 'f'.

I had the chance to be there, and it was such an amazing experience for me!!

Oh wow this place is amazing 🤩 you need to take paper and charcoal and do some stone rubbings!! 😊

Memel, East Prussia, Germany. Now called Klaipėda, Lithuania

One of my favourite places. I spent a childhood summer holiday there one year. We stayed in the Hotel that is now the youth hostel, behind the Abby. I always remember looking out at night and seeing the ruins littered with fireflies. I wish I’d been more interested in the graveyard back then, I could have spent the whole holiday in there.

Thanks for sharing this 🧛🏻‍♂🧛🏻‍♀

I was in Whitby 3 weeks ago. Saturday was a lovely sunny day. I love Whitby and gave wandered around that graveyard a few times. It's sad thinking about the damaged gravestones and the forgotten people who lie there

I can listen to your sweet accent for day's, months, years 😍 forever 🖤

You sounded knackered after those steps, I would have been put on a respirator,😊😊😊

Beautiful cemetery

Lovely and good walk. I'm happy to see the remains of the remains. Thank you.

Well that was a pretty sweet video thank you for sharing I really love the tombstones

New subscriber here from Philadelphia Pennsylvania in the US. Love your channel. Just wish you'd read more dates on the stones?-where possible. Well done mate! Well done. Take care and be sake on your journeys and glad I can come along.

Whitby is a little Gem of a Place. I love old grave yards. Lived next to one in Gateshead all my life. Whitby Graveyard is very atmospheric. Iv been up there about 6 times in my life. Love to read the old stones. Brilliant views from up there.Wonder what the oldest stone in that cemetery is? You need to read a few more stones out. 👍

Loved this tour. Sad to see the degree of erosion on many of the headstones, but fascinating at the same time the manner in which the salt air erodes the stone. A passage from Puget Sound was inscribed on one of the headstones. Puget Sound is located off the coast of Washington State in the U.S., so that was quite a long journey! Quite a long trek up those stairs - thanks for taking that one for the team 😉

Going to be there this halloween, can't wait.

20K subs!!! That’s awesome. Stoked for you Dead Good Walks.

Love this place was there 2 weeks ago

Very old and interesting cemetery, very big.. wow 🎃

So beautiful thank you so much

such a great video , thanks for sharing

New subscriber in Columbus, GA, USA. Loved this walk, beautiful cemetery. Great job!

I really enjoy ur videos and 😊

I recently found your channel sir and I am playing catchup to all your videos . The grave a 6:15 that mentions " Puget Sound " is a large Port that goes quite a ways inland and gets close to Seattle , Washington . far northwest corner of the USA .. It's pronounced " Puh { the U is pronounced by saying the long form of U , if I could put a straight line ontop of the U it would make more sense .. .. Get is pronounced " jet " .. " Puh jet sound " ... I truly enjoy your content sir , and you have a very cool accent , I wish Americans had cool accents . God bless all that you do !

Simply Red Filmed the Music Video Holding back the years There in 1985

Thanks

The area around that Abby is really beautiful thank you so much for sharing. I almost wonder if those headstones were made of sandstone or limestone. That might be the reason with the Salt Air, the headstones have deteriorated. Anyway what a beautiful scenery around there. Really enjoyed the view thank you.

When I see very old headstones I like to google 'fashion in ----' whatever year a person died, so I can imagine what they must have looked like!

great 👍

It looks really lovely

Hey, LOVE 😍 😍 your walks! They inspired me to help hubby find his ancestors here in the UK. 👻 Will your merch have a *water bottle* selection anytime? Easier to carry in the cemeteries than a cup! 😋 OH! I don't know if you know of this trick to read the engraving in the daylight: Flash your torch on the lettering on it!

Stunning cemetery with stunning views but it does make me feel sad with so many young souls laid to rest bless them all again the grave stone are amazing some of them must have cost an absolute fortune 💜🙏

This is going to be exciting 😁 can't wait 👍❤️

❤ it's real to me ready

Can't wait!!!!👏👏👏

Hi, that place is beautiful, I wouldn't mind be buried there, those old headstones almost looks mid evil, thanks for takinng us with you.

Really enjoyed this Dracula Graveyard Tour! You just needed a Haze machine and a few Goths walking around and you'd have had the perfect Halloween video.

Whitby Abbey Coldplay recorded a concert for BBC was brilliant and lit up when it got dark.

Busy place as well

I can't remember who's grave it is that they actually used in the original Dracula film. FANTASTIC tour. I love Whitby 🙏👍👍💯💯❤️💯💯👍👍🙏

I'll try and be here for the live stream...it's a bit early for me. I may be awake but ☕☕☕

I heard in the original bram stocker novel, the sun never killed Dracula it only paralyzed him. But when it came to Nosferatu in that film orlock who was Dracula, in the movie was able to die by the sun. That’s where the death of vampires getting killed by the sun came from. So any actual bram Stoker novel Dracula never died by the sun he was only paralyzed, and also as a little twist bram Stoker‘s wife sued the production company who made Nosferatu, because apparently they didn’t have the rights to make a film kind of based on Dracula even though the character orlock wasnt called Dracula so when she sued the production company, the judge ordered that all the copies of Nosferatu would be destroyed. All the copies were burned except one copy of the film which was able to last over the centuries and Thank goodness that copy lasted now it is 100 years old. I love silent movies and Nosferatu is one of them. also when you watch Nosferatu you see the guy in the movie walking down the stairs, the main antagonist, you see him walk downstairs and you see this giant coffin, and it has oarlock laying in the coffin, and the guy that looks at the vampires face oarlock who is played by German actor Max Schreck The guy gets scared and runs back up the stairs. I thought that scene was completely hilarious, I was waiting for Orlock do the major pain thing, you know how in the movie major pain Daman wayans is laying there with his eyes open and the fat kid sleeps beside him, and they want major pain to go away because I think he’s mean or whatever, great movie it’s hilarious, and The fat kid is snuggled up to major pain major pain puts his arm around him squeezes the kids shoulder looks at him and says hello Betty, in Nosferatu that’s not what orlock does but my point is in the movie, after that guy‘s looking at him like in his cough in there, I was waiting for Orlock to jump up and say boo that would’ve been hilarious. Or I was waiting for Nas Ferrato to say hello Betty like major pain said that would’ve been hilarious. Also in Nas Ferrato I love how Orlock is laying in his coffin and then all of a sudden for him to rise, he like comes up you get what I mean he just comes up with a mighty stride I guess and he standing there like all menacing it’s just great I love all 20s silent movies that’s why I’m a big fan of them especially of Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, and the hunchback of Notre Dame play by Lon Chaney and also Phantom of the opera as well love it launch Cheney did a great job too.

Brilliant video ❤ I’ve lost track of how many times I’ve walked up and down those steps in the last 40 odd years! One thing that really annoys me is it’s sort of an unwritten rule that you go up the left and down the right, but sometimes people go against the grain, even if there is a mass of people heading towards them! I totally understand that people might not want to walk down next to the edge , but it is so annoying 😂😂😂

Even though I was born in the United States All my life and proud to be an American, all my ancestors are from Great Britain especially in Yorkshire, so I can say also that not only am I in American but I’m also proud to be a Britt. I love my country of Great Britain would love to go there someday visit some family if there’s any still around, if not I’d love to just go visit Yorkshire and take in all The scenery of Great Britain I would love that.

Really good vid, just found you and checking out your vids, really enjoying them, cheers from us in Australia :)

The large number of seafarers’ graves is because Whitby was heavily into fishing and whaling in the past and was an important port. The grave that mentions Port Jackson is a reference to Sydney Australia. The stone cross is a memorial to Caedmon, the first English poet. The cross is 19th Century, hence it’s good condition. The church itself is extremely interesting, being Norman, but having box pews throughout and a triple decker pulpit with sounding board. The local gentry were the Chomeley family, who built their pew with fat barley twist legs right across the chancel arch. Well worth a look. Their hall is now part of the visitor experience to Whitby Abbey. The 199 steps up to the graveyard are unforgettable and have shallow steps to help mourners to carry the coffins up to the graveyard.

Omg please tell me you seen the pirate graves 🙈. Such a lovely setting and great to see the pirates graves here

Missed this one.

Looking forward to this.

The sea air and changes in temperature can do a real number on headstones. It also depends on the material used to build the headstone. Sandstone and other soft materials will erode must faster. One of the reasons I must travel back to Belfast, NI to repair my grandparents and great grandparents headstones.

I live not to far from Whitby. Lovely place and history . Enjoy 😊

First thoughts, coastal erosion maybe play havoc here in a few years. Another interesting video. Thank you

Yo!!!! Amazing!

Very peaceful place,like sitting on the bench farthest from the church on the headland.

Hey That's really Cool, I am looking at My Namesake's town Cemetary. I will need to go there one of these days to check it out. But thnx Dude for the great Video.

Beautiful! Would love to stay over night in there. I’m curious if the caged monument would house urns? Otherwise I suppose they were buried below and that’s the style of marker the father wanted perhaps. Only on our east coast do we have headstones dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. I remember while living in Philadelphia the oldest birthdate I found on a headstone was 1558. Wonderful video, please keep them coming.

Been there a couple of times and it is as beautiful as it looks, my little brother saw three monks in the Abby grounds ( there was no one there) he was only 3 yrs old so couldn’t have made it up, he said they were men with funny dresses with hats
