Browlesdon Cemetery

Browlesdon Cemetery is Norrilund's most famous. It opened in 1499 with serpentine paths and a circle of catacombs in Basaami style. Later architects added a Basaami-style avenue with a menacing entrance. This underground avenue features massive obelisks and family values, while the circle comprises a number of crypts sunk in a circle around an ancient cedar. A subterranean set of passages and hoist mechanisms was originally designed so that bodies could be placed in tombs without disturbing the ground, but was never completed. They have fallen into disuse and it is likely that ghouls and other deathly creatures have taken residence. Perhaps that is why they were left unfinished in the first place.
Browlesdon has the reputation of being one of the most eerie and haunted places in Norrilund. There have been numerous reports of possible vampirism and also black magic rituals taking place within its grounds. The combination of occult mystery, literary inspiration and social zeal attracts the members of several of Norrilund's vampiric clans.
Famous people buried in the cemetery include Ivar Dastrom, Charles Maxwell, Alastair Somesworth, Irina Fantos, and the family of Peter Bourke.
