Yeah, I wind up in graveyards at night quite often stealing little plugs of native grasses. The older the graveyard, the more likely the grasses in there are native because no one's plowed it under and planted a crop on it. I'm interested in native grasses.

Actually, (yes, I know this is creepy) I have walked through a graveyard in the middle of the night. To make it even more frightening, it was a graveyard that was pretty far away from the main city, nestled under a lone church on a mountain in Greece. My rational side was not at all unsettled...it was beautiful with the huge, ornate tombs that are characteristic of that part of Greece, and there was a full moon, so you could see everything. My more gothic side was just the tad bit disturbed though...

Yes, and I often did when I was living near one. I took my cats for midnight walks there because it was safe from other humans and cars.
I have always found graveyards beautiful and relaxing and still ... I loved visiting the Highgate Cemetary when I lived in London; my friends and I thought of it as a great outing.
Apart from the serenity of such places, often there is lovely art work to appreciate too; Celtic crosses and marble angels etc.
I like going to such places, and at night it feels better somehow. There are no harmful spirits there and it is one place you can be sure to find silence in this mad world.

Depends on where I was. If I was in New Orleans there is no way I would be in a graveyard at night - too many weirdos hang out there with all the voodoo stuff! In New Zealand I would if I had my big beefy husband with me. In England, maybe.

yes. I do believe in spirits and ghosts in a sense, but a graveyard is a place where the majority of the people buried there are someone's loved one. So it doesn't bother me.

Possibly not since I'd be worried about the dangerous living people that sometimes hang out in cemeteries at night, especially in urban areas. It would never be because I was afraid of ghosts, even if there were some in there.

Yes, I've done it all my life. Sound weird. Nope. When we were kids my mom, my aunt and their friends and us kids would do it several times a year. At Halloween we'd walk through and it was cool. No disrespect of the dead in fact in our little country cemetery we know almost all the people buried there.( alot relatives) I walk there in the day to avoid, cars, dogs, and noise. It gives me time to reflect on life, and be thankful I can walk through there.

Sure, I do it all the time. I am a ghost hunter and spend a lot of time in graveyards, but if you do so be sure you have permission so you don't get arrested for trespassing.

Nope. I have an over active imagination and it would be playing all kinds of tricks on me. To many nights of staying up with the babysitter when I was little watching Zombie movies.

I have no fear of the dead so, yes, I would walk through a grave yard at night unless there was a biker gang their making sacrifices of goats or something.
