Angelus Rosedale Cemetery entered my awareness in 2006 in a most unusual manner.
Background: From 2005 until 2010 and with the help and support of Sander/Moses Productions, I promoted the CBS TV Series "Ghost Whisperer" quite extensively through my website. I had descriptions of episodes, brief character bios, brief bios of the stars, information on music used in episodes, a forum, a chat room, a guestbook and a hit counter with map showing where people would hit my website from.
One particular evening after a rather chilling episode, I decided to go into my office to check the hit counter. One hit came from Los Angeles, California. I excitedly thought that someone from Universal at Sander/Moses must have checked out my website. As I zoomed in on the location, I noticed that the hit came from south of Universal Studios. I zoomed in again and noticed that the it was just a little bit north of I-10. I zoomed in closer and was puzzled as all the streets gave way to what looked like an open field. "What's going on here", I asked myself? Puzzled, yet pleased by the mystery before me, I pulled up Google Earth and matched it with what I had visible on my Map. I found the field and zoomed in closer. As I did and got a good look at the location of the page hit, I got chills from head to toe! It reminded me of an old episode of the Twilight Zone.

http://www.slspencer.com/Sounds/Nightcall.mp3

I checked the time in which the page was hit.
8:30 PM Pacific Time. Three and a half hours after the gates closed and when Los Angeles was in full dark.
That begged the following questions: Who? What? How?

Many have commented about the possibility of raising funds to facilitate the proper placement of some of the stars whose ashes rest unclaimed in the vault. We're actually looking into that, and will keep you posted. Let us know in the comments if you'd like to support this effort.

Arthur I hope you never stop. Your videos are simply incredible! Just wanted to also add that it just feels really sad when someone's ashes remain unclaimed, and they never reach their known final resting place. It also feels sad when someone doesn't have any head stone or marker, unless it was their choice....

I know what you mean. My nana has been dead since December 27th 2015 and she still has no engraving on her headstone, and my mother can’t do anything about it because she doesn’t have the right, only one of my uncles and aunties do, and there both to lazy and stubborn to do anything. It just really makes me angry, because every time I visit her headstone, I feel like I’m visiting nothing and that she’s not being remembered.

Sister Spooky

6y↑2

+A&F Gaming : Though she may not have the right to engrave the current stone, she can buy one and have it placed there. There’s some available online that can serve as a “marker” until the permanent one is fixed.

I’m like you.... there’s no excuse not to mark someone’s grave. How would they like to be just dumped in the ground to anonymity? I highly doubt that. Yet they don’t take care of people they allegedly “love”? That’s messed up. Unless the deceased expressed their will for NO marker to be erected, a marker should be there. Plain and simple.

Once again, Arthur Dark demonstrates that a cemetery need not have green, well-manicured graves to be beautiful. The beauty comes from his substantive narration and the poignant film clips such as that of Hattie McDaniel accepting her Academy Award or the history of Anna May Wong's career. And, of course, the presentation of Dooley Wilson singing "As Time Goes By" made my day. Thank you, Arthur, for another creative masterpiece.

It’s such a shame so many talented actors and actresses aren’t properly celebrated in death.
Through your tours I am now watching a lot of old films and finding new actors who’s talent is immense. I’m in the UK but would be happy to donate money towards getting a plaque or something to celebrate the lives of these people.

Hollywood Forever doesnt deserve Hattie. She belongs where she rests and in our hearts.

Edit: Wow the unclaimed ashes portion was a special kind of sad. 😞

Katheryne Koelker

What happened with Hattie happened under the old management (the previous owner would not allow Hattie to be buried there because of her race). The present management did try to make things right by reaching out to Hattie's family.

@Katheryne Koelker I dont quite remember the whole context of that comment but I know if a business wronged my family member in a major way then returned after new management (not even the same racist staff)...It would change nothing. I dont forget. So thats null to me.

Another superb effort, Mr. Dark. I believe that the actor Herbert Marshall is one of those in storage at Chapel of the Pines. His work was so wonderful, would it be possible to remember him in a future edit? He has a surviving grandchild and great grandchildren, so I don't know why he remains unclaimed and uninterred. What a great he was. No one that great deserves to be forgotten.

Arthur, yet another excellent piece of work. Thank you. I, and I am certain many others, find your work compelling, sensitive and tasteful. I appreciate the fact that you will visit not only the household-name actors, but lesser-known, more obscure performers. To give these persons a little remembrance and honour is a great and kind thing. (It also serves as rather an education in the history of Hollywood celebrity). I hope, as you mention in your pinned comment, that funds can be raised to properly inter some of those actors forgotten by time, alone without family and deserving of a proper memorial. Again, my thanks for what you do.

That’s so sad about Edmund Gwenn. He plays such a huge part of so many peoples holiday traditions yet his ashes are sitting in a basement unclaimed.

Someone should take up a collection or start an online funding drive to get him properly interred.

Thomas Levy

Melissa Yarbrough and jec1ny: I was going to say the same things. Mr. Gwenn deserves more respect than that. I read that he died penny-less in an old folks home and that is likely why his ashes do not have a proper resting place. Merry Christmas, Edmund, wherever you are . . .

Happy Sunday Arthur!!! I was very happy to see your visit of this cemetery. It doesn't have the beautifully manicured lawns of the more famous memorial parks, but those interred there played a vital role in the entertainment industry. Hattie McDaniel's story always makes me so sad...such a great lady. I was shocked about Edmund Gwenn. I love Miracle On 34th Street and THEM! He was such a class act. Thank you very much for visiting this location and sharing it with us. It is sad to think that even though there is a drought, they couldn't try to at least clean up the grounds a little. 😞

Hope you have a wonderful Sunday and I will see you next time! Take care. 😊

The thought of so many people's remains sitting on a basement shelf, without a remembrance, is extremely sad. Great artists such as H.B. Warner, and anyone for that matter, should have a final resting place.😟

I'd be interested in helping if there is some way the courts and cemetery would allow a group (of non-relatives) to get together and coordinate a resting place for these fine people.🕊

Enormous thank you for the respect & care that you give to all of these individuals and their families; and, for the time & effort in researching the information; and, for all the hard work you guys put into these videos. Mahalo from Hawai'i and a fond Aloha.🌺

I just found your channel a few days ago and I am loving it. I've always had a fascination with actors and actresses of people who were born way before my time and what their lives were like during those time periods. I learn a lot about these famous actors and actresses, which most I don't know who they are, but some I have heard of their names. I find it sad that some of the famous actors and actresses are forever sealed away in that chapel never seeing the light of day. I hope their spirits found peace.

If I was in her family I’d ask her remains to be moved. Don’t normally condone disturbing the dead but she deserved it.

For you Tom and Jerry watchers, the first owner of their house Mammy Two Shoes was based on her. It was because of her death that they removed her from the show and her former spot was replaced with George and Joan.

Thks for these tours, they are absolutely fabulous. I hate what happened to Hattie McDaniel, she was a classy woman. I also find it sad that some of the other actors, Edmund Gwynn have no niche and no one or group has had their ashes put in niche of their own. How can we do this to an iconic Santa Clause? Luv your vids.

It’s sad the cemetery doesn’t place these ashes for these famous actors. Surely there is a fund to do this? It’s horrific. All they care about is money and the cemetery isn’t even kept up. Love your videos Mr. Dark!💖💕💖💕💖💕💖

Hollywood Graveyard

6y↑4

Thanks Tamara! In defense of the cemeteries, they have no say as to what can be done with remains. Legally, only the family, next of kin, or the individual themselves can make that call. And because of the drought here in LA, Angelus has made the tough decision to limit lawn watering, for conservation.

I was excited to stumble across this video, as I'd recently heard Jean Hagen (Singin' in the Rain, etc.) was inurned in Chapel of the Pines. A photo request is in place on Find a Grave.

Reading up on Edmund Gwenn it seems he had no family to claim his ashes as he was married and divorced early in his life and never remarried or had children. He was a British citizen so he probably had no other family here in the states. H.B. Warner was also a British citizen but he did have three children so I'm less certain on why he doesn't have a marker. They both played roles in my two favorite Christmas movies. Gwenn as Kris Kringle in a Miracle on 34th Street and Warner as Mr. Gower, the pharmacist, in It's a Wonderful Life. I think it's a good idea to start a fund to get these people the markers they deserve.

Normally I enjoy your videos & while I did like this as always, I can't help but feel incredibly sad. So many forgotten stars & the cemetery looks horrible. Hollywood is always pouring money into tourist attractions & other projects to draw people in, they need to invest & fix this cemetery. People who helped Hollywood become what it is today are there but they're resting in what looks like a vacant lot. This is a disgrace! Who owns the cemetery? Maybe we all should start a gofundme page to get the grounds fixed up & fix the mausoleums?

All of those unclaimed stars should be given courtesy plots or niches & be buried respectfully, not locked away in a dusty store room. If they have no living family, can't someone sponsor them?

Hollywood Graveyard

6y↑18

In Angelus Rosedale's defense, because of the drought they have opted to limit watering the lawn for conservation. And at Chapel of the Pines, as I understand it, some of the stars in vaultage wanted it that way. But yes, others who went unclaimed or who don't have next of kin can possibly be sponsored and moved and placed in a niche, as happened with Mae Busch and Ann Sheridan.

vmj255

6y↑7

ShinbiBelldandy I was just thinking about all of those deceased with no family and/no means for a proper interment. Maybe we (meaning Arthur, 😉) could start a program where people could “adopt a deceased star”, like other programs where people adopt a homeless animal or a mile of highway to look after. Anyone interested could donate to their favorite until enough money is raised for a proper burial. (If I lived closer, I would love to start a program like this, but I would be happy to donate, if I knew that the money was being used for it’s intended purpose.)

What say you, Mr. Dark?

ShinbiBelldandy

6y↑3

Oh wow, thank you for replying!! :) I don't live on the west coast, so I wasn't aware of the water restriction (for a few days, we were practically underwater! Maybe we should send it their way!). This also explains the overgrown plants. That's understandable. I can also understand some of the stars wanting to be unclaimed. I guess after decades of entertaining & being in the limelight, they wanted to go away quietly.

ShinbiBelldandy

6y↑2

I second that idea!! :)

Hollywood Graveyard Yep. Certain parts of L.A. can't water the lawns at certain times of the year or during droughts. It's just the way it is. Also, unless you water daily, most of L.A. would look rather brown in the summer. It's incredibly hot and dry here from May through October.

Sad to think of "Santa Claus" and "Mr. O'Hara" being stuck in the basement. ☹️

Traveling Photographer

4y↑2

The actors who portrayed Santa Claus, Mr. Gower & Uncle Billy (Mr. O’Hara) were all in the twilight of their careers at the time of their deaths. It looks as though Edmund Gwenn (Santa Claus) had no known children and had divorced back in the UK 42 yrs before he died. While the rest of his immediate family in England would likely have learned of his passing they likely never claimed his ashes because they probably thought he had made arrangements.
Thomas Mitchell (Uncle Billy/ Mr. O’Hara) seems a little more sad, he remarried his first wife with whom he had a child after being apart/divorced for 6 years, so in total they were together 41 yrs (until his death). It is possible that he died intestate, he had children with both of his wives and that both kids, who would have been adults at the time, fought over the estate and his ashes for such a long time that like the real case that inspired Dickens’ Bleak House the lawyers ate up all the money so there was nothing left to pay to get the remains out.

HB Warner (Mr. Gower/ Jesus) had been divorced from his second wife for 24 years at the time of his death. They had three children who were all adults at the time of his death but it could be that they were estranged from their father and that is why they didn’t claim the ashes.

It would be interesting what it would cost to have them interned in one of the vaults there. Perhaps fans of Miracle on 34th Street, It’s A Wonderful Life or Gone With The Wind could crowdfund to do it.

Yeah! They probably had no family left alive; who cared!

Unfortunately it was common back then. Families keep in touch these days because of technology. But back then, all you had was letters via mail and not everyone had a telephone. Also, when many people went to Hollywood they left their families & relatives behind.

@Brooklyn Babe That makes sense. So hard to imagine tho. Our families pester us on fb everyday now. 🙄

Sadly it still happens. We had no idea that my Grandfathers ashes were at the funeral home for 22 years. The funeral home never got in touch with my Mother. He was a vet so a group just found his ashes and buried them. They said more than 22,000 remains. Mostly Veterans

I wonder if their families are still alive or if they ever ...cared? 🙄

Both Edmund Gwenn and Thomas Mitchell both played Kris Kringle in Miracle on 34th Street. Gwenn was in the 1947 version and Mitchell was in the 1955 version.

Yet another awesome vlog but so much sadness, not from death but just how people were treated and some are still treated not much better even now :( I do have admit the ending really made me smile though.

Out of all the episodes this one was my favorite. I have a thing about basements. as a general contractor, you always find very interesting things stored away. As like this episode. 😎😇

Though I'm what you would call a Pioneer in the field of celebrity grave hunting, I have yet to go through this particular cemetery. I didn't realize just how much history was contained here. And I've seen this cemetery dozens and dozens of times on the 10 fwy but have yet to stop here. Does anybody know the story of Honorable Wu? There sure doesn't seem to be much online about him. Surprising considering he died so young. Either ways, great job Arthur.

Another stellar video. It makes my day when I get a notification that Hollywood Graveyard has a new video out! It is sad about the unclaimed ashes. I'd be interested in knowing how we can help.

I had no idea there were stars without markers because of money issues. Sounds like a story to be leaked to the media. And, I hope the fans of Mr. Dark' s good work will help support it by donating a few bucks monthly on Patreon.

Its hard to believe someone like Thomas Mitchell, and others been there for years unclaimed.

Your videos have become my favorite series. <3

Another wonderful video, surprised at all the comments about the state of the cemetery, thought it looked beautiful like some of the old ones in London, Highgate and kensal green. Would be great if you managed to do those 2 some time lot of historical figures and stars in those

I honestly wish you could be nominated for an award yourself! The best subscription I have ever made.

I talked to Danny at the chapel of the pines earlier today and he said that unless you are next of kin there is no way of getting the cremains moved to a proper niche. We would have to try to go through the California courts. He is looking into it and seeing what he can do and getting back to me.

Thanks Wendy, yeah, we heard the same thing... apparently through the courts it's not impossible though, if there's no next of kin, or the ashes were never claimed to begin with. Let us know what you hear back!
