TLDR

One of Wisconsin's most well-known cemeteries — it holds some of the state's earliest settlers, and Chief Highknocker, the last Native American chief to rule the Green Lake area, is buried here too.

The Full Story

Chief Highknocker drowned in 1911 attempting to swim across the river to reach Green Lake, and his spirit reportedly still wanders the cemetery grounds. Visitors report dark shapes moving between headstones, strange sounds, and orbs of light. Those who sit atop a particular mausoleum on the south side say they're pushed off by the ghost of a child.
