Author: Kate Cherrell
I'm Kate, a PhD candidate, lover of Victoriana and creator of Burials and Beyond.
Through my articles, I hope to share my passion for folklore, cemeteries and death history, showing that fascinating stories and curiosities are waiting on our very own doorstep! I also hope to inspire others to explore and preserve their local cemeteries and memorials, connecting with the hidden stories that surround us all.
When not lurking around graves or writing, I can be found working with literacy charities, paranormal groups or dressed in widow's weeds, giving talks on the fascinating world of Victorian mourning.
