Cemeteries are usually tranquil places where we can visit those we have lost. However, some of those scary places in Missouri are actually its cemeteries – haunted cemeteries.

It holds the remains, however, of serial killer Billy Cook, who was executed in San Quentin in the mid-20th century. His may be the apparition that is seen in the cemetery. Some visitors even tell of leaving the cemetery with fresh scratches on them, but they have no idea how they got them. This is definitely one of the creepiest cemeteries in Missouri.
