People claim to hear and see unusual things at this grave but I found this spot in Lake View Cemetery to be peaceful and calm.

This is the Haserot Angel, a bronzestatue that dates to 1923. Industrialist Francis Henry Haserot commissioned the statue to honor his wife who died in 1919. It was created by artist Herman Matzen who was from Denmark but was working here in Ohio

Oxidation of the metal over these last 102 years has caused an effect that looks like black tears streaming from her eyes. The effect is creepy especially since she’s so realistic she could seemingly take flight. Many tourists and ghost hunters claim there’s something otherworldly going on on here.

I don’t know about that but she sure does look sad.

Her name?

The Angel of Death Victorious.

Happy Monday, friends!
