Highgate Cemetery - Filming Locations and Famous Graves 4K 

I love how European cemeteries allow the greenery to envelope the graves, almost like the dead are being embraced by nature. So much more preferable than the overly manicured memorial parks here in the US (imho). That's probably why I love the cemeteries in my beloved New Orleans so much. Thank you so much for sharing!

I still can’t believe it when my wife shouted “hey, look who it is” and there were the grim life standing right behind us in the queue. They were the nicest people you could meet. Let us have our picture with them and wrote us a little message with autographs which both are now framed and on our wall. All the best GL, hope you enjoy the rest of your trip.

The fondness, sweetness, and respect that Jessica showed at Bob Hoskins grave made me tear up a little. The whole video was very respectful.

man, Bob Hoskins played Smee in "Hook " I love that movie. When Jessica touches his gravestone I can feel his presence. Such a great actor along with Robin Williams as Pan. Two great actors we all lost in this century.

Grimm and Jessica, you're my heroes. I love that you're covering the best cemetery to represent the Gothic age of Victorian horrors.

I went to Highgate for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and I can confirm that the tour and the catacombs are 100% worth it. Such a beautiful graveyard. And Highgate village is a super fancy part of London too - well worth a visit!

Very somber but yet inspiring. In Philadelphia, I lived near a very old historic cemetery. It had not be funded for decades and the trees literally pushed through the caskets, and pushed the remains out of the ground. To see human bones around the gravesite is something you never forget. It has since been restored, the graves in the overgrown section were moved and it was deemed a registered historic landmark. It's called Greenwood Cemetery.

Glad you enjoy the UK 😊. I feel very very lucky and proud to be British 🙏❤️🇬🇧. Brilliant people ❤️, just shame about the weather ☔🥶🤧😁

Yep - this is literally on my list of must-sees on my next trip to London ❤ So spooky and atmospheric - truly like you’ve stepped into Victorian and Edwardian England. I think that Lucy in “Bram Stoker’s Dracula” was supposed to be buried there.

Brompton Cemetery is equally as beautiful. Set in Chelsea, it’s such quiet oasis. Not many famous people buried there but a great filming location from MI, Sherlock Holmes, Johnny English, Goldeneye and Finding Neverland.

The dedication to getting the most accurate angles as possible is why I love watching these videos.

The natural greenery and the amount of stunning art in this cemetery is breathtaking! Lovely video!

Your UK tour videos have been outstanding. So informative, creative and the places are fascinating. Wonderful job and so glad your enjoying our tiny island

This video was like walking thru a fairytale with you guys! Absolutely stunning! I play the piano, and have a grand, but I’ve never seen one in a cemetery…too cool!! You guys are the best! The opening shot with Jessica walking is very pretty, she fits in so perfectly with her hair! 🎃💀💚

I’ve been watching you both for a number of years now and am very excited to see you have to come to visit the UK, and Highgate Cemetery in particular! You filmed it so beautifully, as always. I’ve spent a fair bit of time in the cemetery over the years - my great-grandparents are buried in the east cemetery. In all the time I’ve spent there, I’ve had just one strange thing happen. Late one night, my flatmate and I were walking down Swains Lane - the steep road that runs between both cemeteries. It was midnight and we’d been at a pub - I was just twenty at the time. I happened to have my camera on me that night (this was back in the 90’s before smartphones) and when we got to the west gates, we thought it would be cool to have a picture taken standing in front of them. I went and stood right up against the gates while my friend was holding the camera. Suddenly, two guys appeared behind me on the other side of the gates. It was dark, of course, but I could see the one nearest me was wearing what looked to be a tweed jacket that looked worse for wear. The other guy seemed similarly dressed. They both wrapped their hands around the bars of the gate and pressed their heads against the bars before saying, “Don’t worry - we’re not going to molest you.”. I instructed my friend to quickly take the picture, which they posed for alongside me. We both ran down Swains Lane at tremendous speed, terrified! Of course, they could have been pranksters/homeless/whatever but the strange thing is, when the picture was later developed, they don’t appear on it. I’ve since scanned the picture, enhanced it etc. and there is nobody there except me, but we both saw them. Anyway, I hope you both have a lovely time in the UK and I look forward to watching more of your adventures.

You both give me great joy. Born in February 1980 and it's nice to know that there are still people like you. Thanks for the videos. 😊

The round,thin headstones are amazing to me. So ancient looking and mysterious. England, specially the ole villages, has this deep spiritual awakening.

The cemetery is beautiful! So much history! I love taking pictures of old churches and graveyards and a little etching from tombstones…Jessica looked so beautiful! Thanks for sharing your adventures! ❤ 🎃

I love that u went to see Bob, he was a national treasure. Highgate is such a beautiful place, all of the magnificent seven are.

There are so many beautiful cemeteries! They are like historical sites, beautifully done to always remember and never forget those who we have lost. I love the details of the grounds of this place, could spend all day long there and bask in its beauty for sure! Thank you for showing us around besties! ❤️🦇💚🥰👻🎃

Another noteworthy grave, difficult to find if you don't know his birth name is that of George Orwell. You can find his resting place in All Saints church graveyard in Sutton Courtenay. People leave coins on his tombstone. As a fan of his writing I was surprised ow moved I was visiting it this year. Great series Mr & Mrs Grimm.

This is a beautiful cemetery! It looks so peaceful to spend there and walking around in cemetery. I will always remember for those who we have lost. Thank you for sharing us as always. Happy Halloween!☺️🙏🏻🎃👻❤️💚🖤

Highgate cemetary is one of the coolest spots in London. I love the parakeets calling in the background of this film.

Bob Fuest, the director of The Abominable Dr. Phibes, was one of my teachers at the film school. I don't remember what he taught us but I remember him being an interesting character. By the way, Brompton Cemetery is another great one.

I'll try not to be a chatterbox here, but as a Brit who has spent most of my life, well, the whole 'work, work, work' thing. You guys have really inspired me to get out and see my own backyard, so much so that I'll be on the Catacombs tour at Highgate Cemetery later this month. Thank you for giving me that inspiration and making me realise how awesome my Country is, I've always been fixated by Hollywood which is how I found you all. Two suggestions: IMAX cinema, Waterloo (biggest screen in the UK and maybe Europe) & The Cinema Museum, near Elephant & Castle. The Cinema Museum will be showing Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell (Hammer Horror, 1974) in 16mm on the 22nd of October with a live conversation with Madeline Smith. An awesome event for anyone that reads this who may be able to go.

I've been to England twice, and never made it to that cemetary. THANK YOU FOR SHOWING IT!!! How beautiful!✌️(the answer to life is 42)

Thank you so much for showing us George Michael's resting place. He holds a special place in my heart. His singing voice is one of the very few that makes me cry. ❤

You two are awesome. So professional and well educated on everything you do. Your videos are better than any Cable Channel documentaries. I love you two......keep it coming!

I grew up in Highgate! Was born not far from the cemetery. We are really enjoying your videos of your trip over here, your excitement is genuinely infectious!

I have always been a Vincent Price fan and had surprisingly never heard of Dr. Phibes until my wife showed it to me about 6 years ago and it instantly shot to my top 3 favorite Vincent Price films. So cool you guys visited this location.

Omg omg omfg.....this is where I will be buried. This is my heaven. 💗

I love walking through big, beautiful cemeteries - and the older, and more unusual and elaborate the monuments, the better. Another amazing adventure courtesy of Michael and Jessica!! Thank you, guys!! 💚🪦💚

An excellent video as always, really enjoyed it guys! Highgate is such an incredibly gothic, ornate and wonderfully atmospheric cemetery, you can almost feel ghosts, and spirits all over the place. Another great cemetery well worth visiting, with a Vincent Price connection is Kensal Green, in NW London. Major scenes from the classic "Theatre Of Blood" were shot there. I love all the brilliant London locations used for that movie, and they're all easily found around the city. Happy Halloween guys, enjoy your trip!

Thank you for sharing this cemetery online. Absolutely stunning and so many beautiful details in the actual cemetery. May all those who are deceased rest in peace. I love seeing how much nature has grown all over the graves of the deceased.

I’m kind of shocked you guys just did a quick little glance at Malcolm McLaren’s grave - guy created the aesthetic of punk rock, cast, managed and created the Sex Pistols, created new wave music, partner of vivienne westwood, discovered Adam Ant - you could’ve done a whole video just on him

What an amazing and beautiful cemetery! Awesome way to start my day with a dose of Grimmlife! Thanks for sharing as always.

I just love how respectful you both are to the dead, no matter who they are, when visiting the cemeterys.

That place is crazy. It's amazing it still exists.

Highgate. Exceptional and beautiful. You couldn't drag me back in there.

I think England would be the perfect home for you both someday

The atmosphere of that place is off the charts

beautiful gothic cemetery, luv how all the plant life grows throughout its like a peaceful garden 🤩

It’s really nice to see the joy and enthusiasm you have in these videos, especially doing the things you love to do. London is definitely rich with horror and true crime locations, looking forward to the next video. Thank you again for letting us come along on your journey. 😊

This really is the most fabulous cemetery ever.

Highgate Cemetery is beautiful and has a lot of character. 42: The answer to life, the universe and everything lol. Good job Grimms!

I love that phibes is getting some attention finally here. Phibes should've been a trilogy but alas, we get two masterpieces

20:35 Imagine having a huge dog like that, resting on your grave, always looking after you, being a true friend forever. Makes me wanna cry. Actually I'm crying right now. So beautiful. And sad. It's absolutely amazing. London's the best. 😎🖤👍

😍 This cemetery is absolutely beautiful. 🪦🌿 The English really know how to impress with their architecture, talent, creativity and landscaping. I love these videos from your time in England! ❤🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Great video. I love history, which is why I love your videos so much. Obviously, Highgate Cemetery has lots of history. You do a nice job of showing the cemetery and explaining it’s history. Oh, and I love Dr. Phibes, too, so that was a big bonus! Thanks again!

I spent a day there a few years ago. Incredible scenery, I love a good walk through a cemetery.

Really appreciate these videos and when you're able to get news clips about the actors death- helps revisit their works and accomplishments. Completely forgot Hoskins was in Hook! Looked like a beautiful cemetery too

Excelente recorrido. Siempre es muy enriquecedor ver los lugares donde descansan personajes famosos e ilustres. Y este cementerio con su estilo gótico en vísperas de Halloween, es increíble. Gracias por realizarlo. Ojalá puedan visitar la última morada de Bram Stoker y algunos lugares icónicos de su libro Dracula. Saludos y feliz Halloween.

If youve never seen the 1973 French movie “The Iron Rose”, you must. Most of it takes place in the creepiest cemetery you’ll ever see. And its a great movie! Psychological horror.
