    In the stillness of a dense Newfoundland forest, a hidden cemetery whispers a tale both tragic and triumphant. This week on the Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery Podcast Jennie and Dianne explore the St. Martin-in-the-Woods Cemetery, a plane crash site turned burial ground in the autumn of 1946.
    Among the victims were refugees who had endured the Holocaust, seeking a new beginning, only to face another devastating loss. This November, we reflect on gratitude amidst tragedy, honoring those who came to the rescue of survivors and remembering those whose lives were ended.

    Join Jennie and Dianne for the annual "Beyond the Grave" episode of the Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery, just in time to put you in a spooky mood for Halloween! Wrap yourself cozy, dim the lights and let Mary Shelley's haunting masterpiece envelop you as you venture into 'Frankenstein's eerie world. The tale begins with an introduction from Percy and Mary Shelley before transporting you to 19th-century Geneva, Switzerland. Witness Victor Frankenstein's doomed experiment, the creature's awakening and the devastating consequences for the Family Frankenstein and the monster himself.

    Mary Shelley's classic novel was adapted and performed by phenomenally talented actors live at Evergreen Cemetery on October 4th & 5th, 2024 in order to help raise funds for the preservation of Colorado Spring's historic cemeteries and now we bring it to you for your listening pleasure.

    Beyond the ornate 19th century headstones and crumbling mausoleums lies a world of custom and superstition that dictated death and mourning for more than eighty years. This week on the Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery Podcast Jennie and Dianne explore the complex social norms dictating grief, the rise of spiritualism, and the eerie practices that governed Victorian society. While some of these customs have faded with time, others continue to shape our relationship with death today. Tune in for this Ordinary Extraordinary journey twixt life and death. "Passing out of the shadows into eternal day, why do we call it dying, this sweet passing away?"
