Secret Items Buried With These Celebrities 

Several people out there have told me that the Elvis TCB ring was removed before the burial. Thought I’d put that in the comments. Thank you all for watching and the support. You all are the best. Subscribe and join us!

I have a friend, a police officer, who was gunned down in the line of duty over 20 years ago. He was well known in the community for his love of Christmas. Every year he would have his house on the Christmas-must-see list and it was covered in spectacular lights. In his coffin, a large Christmas bulb was place in the palm of his hand so he could light up the heavens.

FYI.. Elvis was buried with a bracelet from Lisa Marie that she put on his wrist before they closed the casket..

When my mom passed, I frantically searched the house for her will. Instead, I found the cremains of her two beloved Schnauzers. I immediately realized that they had to go with her on her last great adventure. RIP Buddy, Marcie and Mom.

When Peter Lorre and Boris Karloff attended Lugosi's funeral, Lorre stated, " you think we ought to drive a stake through his heart, just to make sure?"

We buried my Mother with her cat. Before anyone screams about this,keep in mind this cat had actually passed away about 2 yrs before she did,and had been cremated. That cat had always slept with her,sat in her lap or beside her,or sometimes on the coffee table when mom sat on the couch. So when she passed away,I put the small urn the cat was in on my mothers lap.

My mother was certainly not a celebrity, but she received a teddy bear shortly before she died, and she kept that bear with her all the time. She held it like it was a baby. Just before her casket was closed for the last time, the funeral director slipped that bear into her arms, so she was buried with it.

Very interesting. My husband passed in May. He was buried with his dog's ashes and his Gary stuffed animal, his favorite Spongebob character.

Sinatra wasn't buried with just ANY bottle of Jack. He was buried with a bottle of the first batch of Jack Daniel's Sinatra Select. Kinda pricey but worth every penny. And yes, I have it. Also my brother, 11 years my Sr, passed when I was 6. He had bought me a pair of ceramic bunnies one sleeping, the other awake. I put the sleeping one in his casket. 44 years later I still have the awake one.

When my wife died over twelve years ago. Before she died she requested that she be buried wearing her original wedding ring that I gave her on our wedding day 42 years earlier. We also placed a framed letter our one grandson had written for her in grade school.

It was reported that when Humphrey Bogart died, his widow Lauren Bacall had a whistle buried with his ashes at Forest Lawn Glendale, as she had once told him whenever he needed her "all he had to do was whistle!" Also, when celebrity mother and daughter Carrie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds died a day apart, they were interred together at Forest Lawn in the Hollywood Hills. Carrie had expressed a desire to be cremated, but her mother had planned a traditional burial for herself. Honoring their wishes, son/brother Todd Fisher had his sister's ashes placed in his mother's casket to be buried with her.

My grandfather was laid to rest with a deck of cards. He and grandma loved to play and they agreed that whomever passed first would be able to play solitaire until the other arrived. Took almost ten years, but I’m sure they’re pain free and happy now they’re with each other again. What game they’re playing? Not a clue.

I gave my Mom a final box of See's chocolates. Our movie nights were a pot of tea, giant bowl of popcorn w/extra butter, and the grand finale a 1 pound box of See's chocolates. I miss her so much and our movie nights 😢

I read about Bela Lugosi being buried in his Dracula costume. The costume he was buried in is a replica to the one he wore in the 1931 classic Dracula. The original was given to his son. Also, it is interesting that President Andrew Johnson was buried with a copy of the U.S. Constitution as a pillow.

I cared for my very elderly mother in her last days. Though she grew up poor in the depression, she always dressed so elegantly, and carried herself with such grace and dignity. We buried her in her wedding dress, along with her favorite purse. I put her favorite lipstick in it, which she was never without, $1 "mad money", a hanky, letters from my children, and phone numbers of her family.

Tiny Tim was buried with his ukulele, Tony Curtis was buried with his iPhone, JFK was buried with an inscribed whale tooth...... When I was a Funeral Director, we buried MANY odd items. Plenty of golf clubs, bottles of booze, cigarettes, letters & notes, cremated remains of loved ones or pets, changes of clothing, candy bars, expensive jewelry, lit 'flashy-blinky' novelties (how long do the batteries last?), cash, weed, golf balls, playing cards, crossword puzzle books, stuffed animals, irreplaceable photographs, bowling balls, baseballs, footballs, sports jerseys, baseball cards, Bibles, toys, coloring books, cameras, musical instruments, holy statues, items blessed by the Pope, soft drinks, beers, and once, a complete stereo system, including two big speakers and a sub woofer (they were laid ON TOP of the body!). Some caskets we buried were true time capsules. I wonder how long until those burials are "fair game" to archeologists?

Sinatra also was buried with tootsie rolls! He was buried with the dimes for pay phones ( since his boy was kidnapped ) he became paranoid and carried them incase he ever had a need to call right away! Great video

My late husband was buried the day before his birthday, two days before our son’s birthday and four days before our anniversary. He was buried with birthday, anniversary and Valentine’s Day (our anniversary) cards. Lots of of love and something to read 💜💜

My nine yr old little boy Riley pasted away from cancer in 2017 actually it was on mother's day may 14how sad an ironic, he was obsessed with yellow butterflies so he was buried with his yellow butterflies blanket a picture of him with me an his daddy his favorite stuffie a little bear, he was the most precious little angel omg a parent should never have to endure what we went thru . They say time heals all wounds that's a lie. But I know my little boy is in heaven chasing little yellow butterflies with Jesus, someday I'll see my precious little boy again . .... 😓

My dad was buried with his cell phone, and we ( his daughters )called and left personal messages !!

We buried my 94 yr. old Daddy with one of his western straw hats, a pair of winter gloves (his hands were always cold even though we live in South TX) and a roll of John Wayne toilet paper that says "I don't take sh*t off anybody"! Daddy always put his hat on even to walk someone to their car after their visiting. We placed it near his head. His hands were on top of the gloves that he wore everywhere year round. The toilet paper was a joke he thought was hysterical. He passed in May 2014 just 4 days before his 95th birthday. He and my Mom were married for 73 years!

When my Daddy died in 2018. He had a white pair of socks on while in his coffin. Myself, siblings and grandchildren took a sharpie and wrote our thoughts and feelings alone with family pictures. I miss my Daddy so much.

For her father, my grandfather, my mom confided she brought pebbles from what had been his family home farm and from the cemetery in western Mass where his ancestors were buried. She tucked the pebbles in his grave. Later she tucked more in the dirt by his stone. He was buried in eastern Mass where his daughters lived, across the state from where the family was from traditionally for several hundred years.

My late husband wasn’t famous but when he passed I knew he needed everything buried with him that he would need in the afterlife. I was thinking like a Pharaoh would have. Placed in his casket was a half a bottle of Jack Daniels, a deck of Rook cards, a Louis L’Amour paperback, the first season of Mash on dvd, Starbucks coffee, dark chocolate, a cane arrow he had made, unscratched lottery tickets, an orange, Gourmet jellybeans(that the grandkids opened lying in state) letters from family and friends, pictures of loved ones, his favorite pocket knife, a 3 ringer civil war bullet he had dug, the archery magazine he was reading when he collapsed. I hope he has enjoyed it all.💔

I like to hear about the things people were buried with, whether they are celebrities or not. I know many people put items in with their loved ones. My Mom had a sweet tooth for candy, and her favorite beverage was Coca-Cola, so I put some Hershey Kisses and a can of Coke in the casket with her.

Many years ago I had written a poem about my brother, who was a Marine. When it was published, I surprised him with it. I didn't know until his death that he kept that poem in his wallet, and from the shape the paper was in, he read it often. I made sure that poem was in his pocket. It was called MY BROTHER, THE MARINE

A friend of mine's dad was buried with a singing dancing gopher from Caddyshack. He is buried at Arlington Cemetary.

Your videos are so interesting! My first husband and our 3 children were in a fatal car wreck, and I put some of each of their favorite candies with them prior to cremation.

My dad loved Cow Parade cows (look them up if you haven't seen them). He passed not long before Thanksgiving so I buried him with the cow I was going to give him for Christmas. I buried my mother with the book "I'll Love You Forever."

My husband and I loved this! Duane ALLMAN of the ALLMAN Brothers Band was buried with a silver dollar, a lighter and a joint. Thank you for this video!

My daughter was just seven when an uncle she had a special bond with died. She wrote him a note and we put it in his pocket for her. It got buried with him. TFS this interesting video. ~ Betty

Glad to have been with you since the beginning Chris. My grandfather raised horses his whole adult life. His favourite saddle was placed ontop of his casket and buried with him. Ive visited Graceland and Elvis' grave a few times and one time was there at the end of the day and was alone there. It was so peaceful and serine.

My 9 year old is obsessed with cemeteries. In the town my parents live in has a huge old cemetery with a lot of Civil War soldier graves. It also has a lot of family and individual mausoleums. He's asked to walk through it the last couple of times we visited. My parents live in West Tennessee so most cemeteries are over 100 years old.

I did the same for my father in law when he passed, he was buried with a can of guinness, a Shirley Bassey cd and a cigar

My son put a fishing lure in the pocket of his fishing buddy, his grandfather, at my dad's funeral. It was very touching.

I knew about Bela but Houdini with 100$ that was unique. Love how you tell the story. You have such a clear voice. I can listen to you all day.

My sweetheart passed away on June 19, 2020. He had a wonderful Pomeranian named Rowdy. When Rowdy got sick and passed away, I trimmed some of his hair and put it in a baggie. Gene loved Rowdy so much, it really hurt him, when Rowdy died. Anyway when Gene was laid to rest, I put the baggie with Rowdy’s hair in his hand. He had a good grip as if he was holding it. We also had two Pomeranians /Pekingese mix, he loved them very much, so I also put pictures of them in with him. I still have the two dogs. I loved them all and hope they can feel each other’s presence. Rest In Peace Gene and Rowdy. You are truly loved and missed. ❤️🌹❤️

Frank Inn died on July 27, 2002 . He kept the ashes of many of his beloved animals, including Benji, Arnold the Pig and Orangey Cat after they had died, and it was his wish to have these buried with him at Forest Lawn Memorial Park (Hollywood Hills). He had a special coffin made to accommodate the animal urns.

BB King was buried in a specific casket , to house Lucille with his body .

My father-in-law owned a construction company and when he passed away in November 2006 my husband gave his eulogy and placed the hammer he used for many, many years along side of him - just in case he needed one wherever he was.

Well these days it is not uncommon to be buried with mementos. In my Chinese culture we do do this kind of ritual to ensure they have a great afterlife. My favourite memories is when it was my first time crocheting a beanies/hats which I sent to my late grandmother (queen of crochet) she loved it so much she asked my mum she wanted to be cremated with the hats I made.it touched me so much.

When my Uncle passed away in the 1980’s he was buried with his violin as he used to play in a band his music is on RU-vid the band was called the Rocky Mountain Boys.

My Dad and my uncle were identical twins. They grew up poor, had to work very hard, even as kids and were pretty rough. In the 50’s and 60’s they were pretty big time moonshiners on the East Coast. They last batch they made was in 1969. I have some of it. When Daddy died, I put a small amount in a test tube and my uncle placed it in Daddy’s jacket pocket before his casket was closed.

My oldest brother was buried with a Mark Martin race car in his hand. My other brother was buried with a guitar pick, a Clemson Tiger paw and a picture of him and I. Thank you for another great and interesting vlog❤👍

Love the Elizabeth Taylor, keeping the note with her from Richard Burton. Didn’t know that, that’s really intriguing!!

My mother developed a love for Tinkerbell over the years, so she was buried with her favorite Tinkerbell pillow and a few other mementos

So very cool to hear about what celebrities were buried with, I never even gave it much thought til now. Interesting thank you.

That was very enjoyable and when you mentioned Bob Marley, I expected there to be some cannabis buried with him. It reminded me of when my aunt passed several of her friends , made sure she was buried with her blue eye shadow, her beaded cigarette purse, a pack of her smokes & her favorite hair dye.

When my mom passed we put the jelly belly game and skip-bo card game in with her. We had the best time playing those games. When I go all my furbabies ashes will be buried with me.

One missed I can think of off the top of my head, Dimebag Darrell (from Pantera) was laid to rest with Eddie Van Halen‘s original guitar from Van Halen’s 1978 album.

We buried my grandmother with a necklace my mom had bought her the first Mother’s Day I was born. I rarely saw her without it.

I remember maybe 30 or 40 yrs ago a lady was buried sitting at the wheel of her sports car.

My Mama was buried with her cremated Boston Terrier!

Very interesting, but unfortunately, none of those things they were buried with would be needed where they were going!!!😳😔👍🏻🙏🏻😇👏 Thanks for sharing with us...👏

There is an old joke about the immigrant who arrived in the USA penniless, built a successful business, and sent his three sons through college, two becoming rich doctors, and the third a rich lawyer. On his deathbed, he declared "I am not afraid of death, but I fear having to be broke again. So sons, please, each of you put $5000 in my casket before it is closed., so that wherever I go, I will have something to spend." After the funeral son#1 says "I left Dad fifty $100 bills." Son #2 says "I did the same". They turn to son #3 who says: "I removed the cash and left Dad my American Express Card. It has no spending limit, and is accepted everywhere." And he returns his two brothers their cash.

Fascinating video, I look forward to the next one. Thanks for sharing this 😊

When Robin Gibb passed away, the family had 4 blue stones that were made from Maurice's ashes and all the stones were buried with Robin so the twins would be together forever.

My husband was buried with a family pic of all of us. My Mom was buried with her blanket, and my dad was buried with all of the pics of his great grandchildren to show my Mom 🤗

Singer/Songwriter legend Mack Davis is buried in Lubbock, TX. If you follow the lyrics to his song "Lubbock Texas in my rearview mirror" he was indeed buried wearing his blue jeans! :)

Great video!! I am so excited for part two and hopefully even more parts after that!! Keep up the great work!😁

I look forward to your videos! Cemeteries have always captured my attention and your posts are the best!

LOL, you beat me to another one that has been on my list to do for a while. 🙂 You are really cranking them out lately and doing a great job with your topics. Fun video, Chris!

I saw something the other day that said Charles Bronson, the actor, who was married to actress Jill Ireland had a cane that he walked with that contained the ashes of his late wife and the cane was buried with himj

This was cool to hear. Thank you for sharing. Always love watching your videos.

So very interesting, looking forward to part 2. Good job!

I put pictures of my two kids in my mother's coffin. She died a day before she got to meet my youngest son.

Just before they closed the lid on Elvis's casket Joe Esposito removed the ring on Elvis's finger, "you know that big ring Elvis wore on Aloha from Hawaii

Thanks for sharing! Really enjoy your channel!

New to your channel! Love it and ADORE your voice! It was made for this genre. I'm a cemetery freak from Pittsburgh Pa. We have some great cemeteries. Used to often visit Andy Warhol's grave. I remember reading about Bela Lugosi being buried in this Dracula attire. It was said he was so poor and his body so ravaged by the drug abuse this was the best option. Thank you again for this. Looking forward to part 2 and catching up on your other videos!🙂

Isn't Frank going to be surprised when he discovers there are no pay phones anymore?? Great list!!!

I have often wondered about this! My Uncle was buried with a flashlight, a pack of cigs, a lighter, and a 5 Dollar bill!!

This is my first time watching your program and I liked it. I especially appreciated your lively narration.

Thank you. Love it. Keep them coming.

My great Uncle loved to play poker. Every week Him and his buddies had an official Poker night so when he passed we buried him with a deck of cards, bottle of Jack, and one of his favorite cigars.

My grandpa was buried with a can of Pepsi, grandma pieces of my cousin’s blanket and brother in law a scratch ticket

Thank you for this unique cemetery video. This is my first time here. I love exploring cemeteries in my native upstate - New York. So much history , and appreciation and respect for those that have gone before us. Thanks again. I will follow along on your journey. , Dean ( in Syracuse )

I've been with you from the start and still love the videos. You have the perfect voice for this.

according to his widow, Buster Keaton was buried with a deck of cards in one pocket and a rosary in the other, so he would be prepared wherever he went!

Great vlog! Very interesting about President Bush and his socks. My mom was buried with the miscarried remains of my niece's baby... My mom would have been her Great Gramma Gigi.

Love your channel! Great tour of Hollywood Cemetery in Richmond VA as a background for your video today. You paused by the grave of the Richmond Vampire.

Great job on the video, you really have a knack, and the perfect voice for commentary 😃😃😃

Great video! Love your channel! You can do a part 2 solely on what Tony Curtis was buried with! Tons of stuff! Check out the Grunge’s article. There are many on the subject but imho, the grunge’s is the best! Keep up the awesome work! Looking forward to what’s to come!

Great job! Need a part 2

I just happened to stumble upon your channel and enjoyed the few videos I watched so far. You should continue the graves of famous people that are off limits to the public and what famous people are buried with! And possibly the clothing they were buried in!

THANK You for all you do! You're Appreciated more than you know!⚘😊

Very interesting. We put a golf club, ball and tee in Dad's casket.

Always love these insights. I've always been intrigued with those above ground family mausoleums. Something about being underground gives me chills. Now days people can have their loved , lost pets cremated. Makes sense to me as I love my best friend cat that is my constant companion. When we go, would surely love to have him with me after we pass. That and a cell phone! I'm a heavy equipment operator and farmer. Know of a old time Farmer in southern Indiana that has his beloved steam tractor as his tombstone over his grave at the cemetary. Apparently someone has kept it in a decent state of preservation as it still looks nice after some 70 yrs.

Hi! Very interesting! I like to hear about celebrities and what they were buried with . Great picture of Elvis ! My sister buried her first husband with their wedding picture, his ring and new shirt he didn't get to wear. ( They were only married a week ,he died in a car accident) so I quess people do those things for memories, or something! Great vlog ! Waiting for part two! Stay warm and take care ! Deborah. Manitoba Canada.( 29 below overnight brrrrr )

Marvelous and very well done. Thanks!

Always love the way U tell a story thanks for showing us would be nice to hear of what people are buried with. My uncle and his best friend his dog were both buried together from a horrible car accident that was really sad. Thank u for showing this video please show more. Could U also do a video on why back in the days family's were buried in big mosulims and beauty they are.

Sinatra wanted the dimes because when his son was kidnapped, the kidnappers required him to keep in touch with them by pay phone (no cell phones then).

Very interesting and I subscribed. Looking forward to your next session.

New to channel great job, I love cemeteries so many stories to be told . This was really neat thank you

I love cemetery videos and it's interesting hearing about what people are buried with when they pass away I'm new to the channel and I enjoy it thanks

Ah, you forgot, the king didn't die. He and Glenn Miller are living together on a desert island 🏝 somewhere.

Thank you for what you do, it's very interesting to me & I'm sure many others. Keep up the good work please I look forward to watching a lot more of your videos!👍🤗

Great information, thanks!

Hi I'm a new subscriber here. I love this kind of content! Love to see more of of this.

Thankyou for sharing, who would've known! Kinda cute the reasons though... Ever thought about doing one on people buried in their cars/vehicles? That would be cool! Greetings from Australia!

Great video man. I watched one video of a celebrity who was buried in her favorite car. I enjoyed this video very much.. As always you did a great job and keep them coming..
