Evans City, Pennsylvania: Night of the Living Dead Cemetery

The graveyard where the opening scene was filmed from the movie that eventually turned zombies into a pop culture commodity. A zombie fan pilgrimage site.

Gary Streiner (sound technician on the original 1968 movie) kept the old chapel at the top of the hill from being torn down. Redone in 2012, in movie.

Turn left at the chapel, then walk down gravel road until you see the Blair stone on right side of road.

As we were cruising down the road, we happened upon the cemetery where the original Night of the Living Dead was filmed. It's located on a winding road just in Evans City. Atop the hill the cemetery sits where it was founded in 1891. As you wind through the gravel roads between graves you can't help but get an eerie feeling that the rich history and characters could really be "coming to get you Barbara."

In the movie, Barbara and Johnny are actually visiting the grave to the right of the "Blair" stone. It is marked "Cole." The "Nicholas Kramer" stone which Barbara clings to is the tall, white one off to the left. It has other names on it as well.
