The cemetery is split into two halves—East and West—and you need a tour for the West side unless you want to get lost for three hours. (Trust me, I’ve done it. It’s fun but cold.) The East side is free and open to the public, so you can wander aimlessly and discover surprise graves, like the one of John Galsworthy, the Forsyte Saga author. Or the spooky catacombs that are locked up because—you guessed it—too many tourists tried to take “haunted selfies.”

So next time you’re in London, skip the British Museum for an afternoon. Grab a hot chocolate, put on your best brooding coat, and go say hi to Karl Marx, Douglas Adams, and a few thousand other people who’d probably be horrified that you’re reading a blog post about their bones. Just don’t step on the ivy—it’s really old, and it might bite back.

P.S. If you see a ghost in a turtleneck carrying a copy of The Hitchhiker’s Guide, don’t panic. It’s just Douglas. He’s looking for his towel.
