The cemetery is nestled just off the road and can be easily missed. |
Much like the Turley Cemetery in Red Ash just about two and a half miles away, there are various ghost stories surrounding this Sharp Cemetery (one of several Sharp Cemeteries in the area). Unexplained shadows and the like along with the morbid tale of the concrete graves being that of vampires make up a few of the campfire stories. Although the cemetery is very secluded and old, I saw nothing creepy about it at all. Sorry to disappoint the vampire hunters. :)
