Could you live overlooking a graveyard in an old house?

The graveyard probably wouldn't bother me, unless it was a magnet for winos, druggies or teenagers! But I couldn't live in a very old house, I'd be too worried about picking up past echoes. (Read too many Erskine and Kearsley books, I think.)

Don't think it would bother me, I love walking round graveyards and looking at the inscriptions, gives you so much history. However I can think of better views from my house.

I don't think it would bother me because I love old graveyards. I do think graveyards draw a lot of mischief makers so I would be concerned about troublemakers that close to my house.

I'm not sure. Depends on the graveyard and the house. As long as the grounds are well tended and it is not a place for ghouls and mischief, I don't think I would mind.

I would think it could be very peaceful and better than some neighbors you could have. lol

I wouldn't mind either one. I also love walking in old graveyards. We went through some in Virginia and North Carolina that dated back to the early 1700's. Love some of the markers.
