The 'Ghost' of Walnut Hill Cemetery

I love a good ‘true’ ghost story, but sometimes a spooky case of mistaken identity is just as strange, if not more! That’s what happened to John Davis, caretaker of the Walnut Hill Cemetery, located just outside Columbus, Ohio in Hamilton Township.
Strolling through the cemetery one evening, he noticed a spooky figure sitting atop a tombstone. As he approached the figure, he realized that it wasn’t a ghost, but just some guy, wearing nothing but a blanket as almost a cape. The man’s clothes were in a pile at his feet. When he noticed Davis’ approach, the man inquired as to whether the referee was on his way.
Davis wisely told the man he didn’t know, but he’d go check. The man then let Davis know that he was eager for a boxing match. Since he couldn’t just leave a naked man sitting in his cemetery trying to fight people, Davis brought the stranger to the county jail. His clothing was searched for personal items and enlistment papers for the army were found.
It was decided to hold him in the jail until a lunacy inquest could be completed, which begs the question as to whether or not he actually was mentally ill. Was this all staged as an attempt to avoid being sent into military service during World War One? Or, was the thought of going to war actually too much to bear, causing the man’s mind to fracture. Perhaps he was already a little…off, or perhaps under the influence. Whatever the cause, it was clear he was NOT a spirit of the little cemetery and to me, that is truly disappointing. Stay spooky, ya’ll!
