So sad how poorly this cemetery is maintained. I mean Harry Houdini is buried here and gravesite is a mess.
I've heard this called 'the spookiest cemetery in New York City.' Having been to spooky cemeteries all over the world, and this one is a contender. I would have thought it was abandoned if I didn't see funerals taking place almost every time I walk through. Harry Houdini's grave is close to the main gate.
Went there to see the grave of Houdini.
Forgotten charming cemetery. Hard to reach, but worth it once you are there. Some good views as it's on a hilly ground.
Not far from Jewish Center of Ridgewood at 55-39 Myrtle Ave.

I loved it and I wanna think you
The place to finally find Harry Houdini...
I've seen many graveyards all over the world, and I find this cemetery the most devastatingly beautiful. Its disrepair adds to its charm and sense of antiquity. It has the appearance of an overgrown fairy-tale garden, filled with crackled marble slabs, monuments, vines, towering trees, flowers, and birds. It's famous for being the resting place of Harry Houdini.
