Key West is a laidback beach community that many people visit in order to relax, unwind, and live the “island” life. However, there is another reason to visit Key West, and it may not be for the reasons you would think. One of the most unique and perhaps the most haunted cemetery in Florida is located within Key West and you need to see some of these gravestones in order to believe them.
The Key West Cemetery is one of the most diverse, most unusual cemeteries in the entire state.

There is also another legend of the Bahamian woman who keeps watch over the cemetery, who will approach you if you’re being disrespectful to the gravestones.
