Highgate Cemetery was a fashionable and stylish burial place for the Victorians and was built in 1839. The cemetery started to decay by 1960s and a couple of vampire sightings were reported. While skeptics have continued to ridicule the idea of vampires existing, the place has been known to house evil beings that are sinister and scary. Many people who walked at night near the graveyard have reported a sudden cold breeze that seems to freeze them.

An unidentified person reported being attacked by a dark figure that had vampire like teeth and she fought him away and the figure disappeared into the walls. The sightings have been consistent and many analysts point out that though the “evil beings” may not be supernatural, the sightings are definitely true and not faked up.Nevertheless, Highgate Cemetery is still a beautiful and charming graveyard.

This brings us to another perspective which reveals the fact that there could be cults within graveyards who suffer from a sort of collective madness and scare people at night and attack them by placing corpses in cars or biting unwary pedestrians. Certainly, the existence of vampires cannot be ruled out but at the Highgate cemetery, it seems like the work of evil humans. Vampires are known to wander the mountains of Transylvania and the Balkans.

Jews all around Europe have been shocked at the vandalization of Jewish graves in Bucharest. Up to 200 graves in the Jewish cemetery have been vandalized and ruined and authorities speculate that many valuable monuments have been damaged in the cemetery. About 40,000 Jews are buried in this particular graveyard and many of them are holocaust victims too.

However, none of the graves that were vandalized belonged to the holocaust victims. The police have launched a thorough investigation and have tried to curb Anti-Semitic feelings among the Romanian youth who could be blamed for the recent anti social behavior. Presently, Romania has a very small Jewish population most of which is elderly.

The police are baffled as to why the Jewish graves were targeted and the authorities have been largely embarrassed and shocked. Jewish organizations worldwide have condemned and accused the Romanian authorities of not safeguarding Jewish interests in the country.
