The Haunting
Old Taunton Catholic Cemetery is a small Taunton, Minnesota cemetery known more through local rumor than a documented historical incident. The ghost stories describe a child spirit, figures in or near the cemetery, and a Halloween reputation that appears in regional folklore writing.
I did not find a reliable public founding date for this cemetery. HauntedPlaces and regional newspaper references preserve the cemetery's paranormal reputation, but the historical record available online is thin, so the entry should not invent a tragic origin story.
Reported activity: Reports mention childlike apparitions, shadowy movement, and an uneasy feeling, while some commenters dismiss the legend entirely. Treat it as a respectful cemetery folklore listing and follow posted cemetery rules.
