We visited the remarkable Walhalla Cemetery, the final resting place of James Mitchell — whose grave is known as the “cursed grave.” Mitchell died in a mining accident in 1880 and his now weathered tombstone bears a haunting inscription: Oh! Let my sudden doom A warning be to all E’en while thou bendest o’er my tomb Thou may’st as quickly fall Strangely, an identical epitaph appears on the grave of Joseph Nicholls in Timor, who perished in a mining accident six years earlier, in 1874.

In Walhalla at the moment - but flabbergasted that I’ve failed to find the cemetery old bush trail - had a pretty funny run in with some “ghostbusters” though. Wish If recorded it.
