Description
It took considerable effort to make this artwork. I had attempted several times to visit this notorious cemetery, but had been unable to find it. It is located deep in the woods between the Worcester Reservoir and the Worcester Metropolitan Airport down an easy to miss dirt path. While it is commonly known as the Spider Gates Cemetery, technically it is the Friends Cemetery, a Quaker cemetery located in Leicester, Massachusetts. The gates were originally designed to be rays of the sun, though few know that fact as it is the Spider Gates. Rumor has it is the 8th gate to hell, and as one moves closer to the center of the graveyard, one moves closer to hell. It definitely is spooky here!
