The Ghost of Union Cemetery

In Easton, Connecticut lies Union Cemetery which is haunted by the White Lady. She has been spotted along Route 59, Sport Hill Road, and of course inside the actual cemetery itself. One thing that people have noticed driving along Route 59 is the White Lady jumping in front of cars, as well as getting hit by certain cars causing damage to the vehicles. One day, a man thought he had run over a woman, he looked all over the road and found no one, yet there was a large dent in the front of his car.
The cemetery dates back to the 1700s. One could imagine how outdated some of the sections could be. Many of the gravestones are rotted or falling apart. This gives Union a very eery feel, one that only an old historic cemetery can give. The White Lady was caught on camera once in 1990. Her form was clear, and she had long dark hair, dressed in white, with no form of facial features.
Later in the video, as the ghost is walking towards the camera, a dark figure comes out from the floor and seems to grab the ghost by the leg. Once this happened, the ghost disappeared into the ground. It is believed that the White Lady was a murder victim from the 1800s. Her body was then dumped behind the Easton Baptist Church, which is on the grounds of the cemetery. To this day, the White Lady is always a figure that is looked for as people drive pass the cemetery and has remained in American folklore for many years.
