That's super cool that the groundskeeper was able to take you two down under the graveyard like that
It really was a nice unplanned surprise that’s for sure.
Oooo this is like a little teaser!
They do not make actors to the depth that Vincent Price will always be. He is a true icon.
gary oldman is
Mr Price is still my favourite actor. That voice. That face. Everyting.
Vincent Price shares common Ancestry with Arthur Guinness.
When l was a girl, I often wondered if my fascination with cemeteries was abnormal. Now I realize that it wasn't. There's something so calm and peaceful about them.
And full of love
@@Mary-zx9bl I've also been fascinated by cemeteries and catacombs for most of my life. One day, and now thanks to you and Jessy, I will make a point to visit Saint Leonard's down in Hythe.
same here!
Wdym when you were a girl you still are
I love walking through cemeteries looking at the old graves. Looking at the born and death dates. Sometimes wondering what the person’s life was like. Very interesting.
Huge thanks to the groundskeepers for allowing Mike and Jessica behind the fence and for allowing filming in the crypt. It's people like you that allow more history to be documented and told. In this case it also allows the Grimm Life Collective brand to offer that extra something.
Aw Alan Rickman, one of my favourite ever Villains. Prince of thieves, "but why a spoon?", "because it'll hurt more!"
Spot on delivery of that line, and that early 90s interpretation of medieval villain hair will never be equalled.
Alan was indeed such a treasure!
Kindness, respect and professionalism go a long way when attempting to access locations off limits to the public 🖤
As an undertaker from London I find this fascinating, I have family in that cemetery. Great video
Why did they use metal coffins? What was the reason?
As they are not under the earth ,a sealed coffin would be needed to keep the smell in.
@@wstimo That's too bad.
@@BN-ym3fp They are lead coffins - the lead was the lining inside the wood; the wood has simply gone rotten over time so you can see the lead. Lead kept out smells and any toxins that may harm the environment and preserved the bodies for longer. 🙂
@@BN-ym3fp Romans used lead coffins too. They continue to be found in London. Facinating.
“A grounds keeper let us in” - OMG this kills me every time you guys get access to something that’s off limits. I don’t know if it’s Michael’s sweet talking or Jessica batting her eyelashes on those big, beautiful eyes, but you guys always find a way!
Being kind and respectful does wonders. And luck all the way. Thank you for watching and the love.
@@grimmlifecollective Absolutely! But with that being said, I think you guys are working a little magic of your own… :)
Three cheers for the groundskeeper.
You guys do great videos xx
@@grimmlifecollectiveTotally agree and please and thank you's help aswell which a lot of people tend to forget. Those coffins are awesome ⚰️
"Being in England is like walking through you favorite horror movie - it's amazing!" Damn Michael, you weren't kidding.
I live in England. Everytime I see a medieval church, which is all the time - I still think Peter Cushing! Hope to visit Whitby some day. This channel has convinced me I need to go!
Massive thanks to those groundskeepers for the amazing tour. Absolutely amazing.
This cemetery is indeed the best horror spot, it has something haunting over it, but also something magical. And you were so lucky the caretaker let you in! It's absolutely stunning there.
This place still haunts our thoughts for sure.
Brilliant video just brilliant thanks again and keep up your good work. Happy Halloween 👻
@@grimmlifecollective Understandable and you guys were so lucky they had such kind caretakers!
Cemeteries and graveyards are very beautiful. They are a peaceful place of memories. Many of those buried in the catacombs likely have no one left to remember them. A very big honour to have the chance to acknowledge them, to see them. That on its own is beautiful. I’m sure nobody wants to be forgotten. ❤️ you guys are amazing. I love how respectful, how loving and how careful you are while visiting these lovely places.
You all were truly blessed to see the things some of us will never be able to go to. Thank you for sharing it with all of us.
Fair play to the ground keepers for letting you in. That’s amazing!
If there were more people around then it wouldn't happen. Michael did say it was quiet at the beginning. The two coffins under sheeting looked creepy ⚰️ probably very much intact aswell being covered over.
I was in London last August and did a special behind the scenes tour of Westminster Abbey. It included the area where they started to build a new area and discovered a 1500 cemetery for the monks. We got to see and there were skeletons all over with leg bones, skulls coming out of the ground . There were a few that were complete skeletons and one buried in a repurposed Roman sarcophagus.
Fantastic. I was walking through a 12th century church cemetary and found a knuckle bone. Handed it to someone in the church. She said she would place it with all the other bones that work their way up to the surface... Felt humbled and awed.
Again, you both have knocked it out of the Horror Fan Park!! You had me at the opening with the Vincent Price movie. I'm 60 and grew up on Mr Prices films. Thank you again for taking us along with you both and your treks.
Thank you for goin on another adventure with us francisdv. Every part of this video blew us away with what we saw…really happy that you felt the same
Even in decay, there's beauty.
This is my favorite type of content...yes its horror related, but it's also about respecting those before us and the way they are presrrved. It is said there are 2 deaths: the first when you physically pass on, and the 2nd when the last person on earth ever speaks your name. Thanks for this hauntingly beautiful video!! Huge fan from Springfield MO!
I remember going to some Halloween event here when I was a kid and being terrified the entire time. 😂
Love this victorian cemetery garden. So much history and elaborate mausoleums. Freddie mercury was cremated here
But no one knows where Mary Austin released his ashes and vowed never to tell
@@carolynmurphy3697 his ashes are spread I think some in zanzibar and Mary has the rest
Another thing I feel compelled to comment on, even though it's obvious: is to know that most if not all those actors have died but live on in films and on camera.
i have been to kensel green many times and have been on tours including the catacombs,a really inspiring cemetery.
@6:40 - Wow, the artwork of that statue is beautiful!
Yeah I want to know who crafted that statue that is some amazing detail
Diana Rigg, aka Emma Peel, a classic beauty, an incredible actress.
Emma Peel-Dianna Rigg was an idol of mine in college.
Those statues are absolutely stunning! Real masterpieces... this is amazing history and art!
I'm pleased to see that you managed to avoid most of the rain that we have had in England so far this year.
Every adventure is better than your last. Amazing!!! Thanks for all you do and for sharing with the world.
Thank you for the kind words…and thank you for watching
This is a director's dream for a horror/gothic movie set... Awesome episode!!!
Awesome. And I'll never tire of any Black Sabbath locations.
What a priviledge to see this. Thank you caretaker. I love walking a cemetery. It brings such a calming melancholy.
This is such an incredible tour. Those catacombs are so beautiful, that place has to be haunted, imagine going there at night on a full moon. My son and I met you and your beautiful wife at a horror convention and you were both so incredibly nice and cool and inviting. You turned us on to the VIP experience and we had no idea that you were horror celebrities at the time. Thank you both. Keep up the amazing videos.
Spooky Grimm mansion in England when? 🏰 ⛈️ 🕸️
(love your England videos - they’ve been some of your best!)
agreed! England suits them so well
I find it interesting because here in New Orleans we don't do lead lined coffins often because of our lack of space we want the elements to do their thing because we need the space for the next person who comes along. Bones are also common in the older cemeteries that aren't as well kept up or the families have passed and no one takes care of the plot/tombes.
Yayyyyy…
It’s Michael and baby Ghoul. Thnx for the video ❤
Amazing , love old cemeteries and graveyards , you were very privileged to be able to see those old coffins , loved the flower domes just stunning 😊
It amazes me how fast a place can get in disrepair. But even more so people not keeping a landmark like that up, a place that deserves both honor and respect.
I just wanted to tell you guys that you are both so Awesome….ive been sick a very long time and on bed rest for awhile and I turned on ur channel and there were a few new videos from you two. You took me to my favorite kind of places, this cemetery and the vampire cemetery….and high gate has been one of my dreams to see and feel in person and your video was as close as I will probably ever get but you gave me some comfort by letting me in thru ur videos and feeling the peace and comfort there. For a few moments I cud forget this sickness and just float thru these places and feel so quiet and peaceful. Thank You Both so much❤
I used to live near Highgate. It's incredible. Sending you well wishes for a full recovery. I hope one day you can visit all these places and maybe a stone circle or two. 🙂
Just goes to show, when you respect a place, people just allow you to go places, and respect them more
Some see creepy, I see skill... those tombstones and statues are hand crafted... I think it's beautiful...
For all the things I'd love to see and never will. You guys give me a window into the magic. Thank you for the excellent videos.
Y'alls videos make me appreciate all life has to offer again. I'm so inspired and excited to check out all of the spooky things life has to offer, and I have faith that there are still genuine, kind people are out there. Thank you so much.
You have a lot more respect for the dead than a lot of channels who visit graveyards. One in particular was shoving their arms into crypts trying to touch coffins. I got a 3 day ban from commenting after what i said about that on their comments section. Fair enough, look, but nobody needs to touch and i'm glad you don't do what others do.
Good for you. What is that we were told as children? 'Look but don't touch.' Museums say that too.
Thank you for taking us with you. The cemetery was beautful. Now I have to watch Theater of Blood. That is one Vincent Price movie I never saw.
This was peaceful and sad to watch, sad to think about the dead people buried there. But yet greatly job done! Thank you for taking us to most mesmerizing places! You definitely rock Michael. My respect to both of you
Wow! The history, while somber.. but still an amazing history. & to get access like that! Just Wow 🙏🤟😌
Thank goodness for you two; I needed cheering up today!
You both are able to make such wonderful connections in your travels. Thank you for sharing your adventures in these videos.
Absolutely a must see the video , Vincent price’s steps and the vault . Everything, just wow . Thank you 🙏🏼
Omggg I would have loved to see Alan Rickman’s grave! But that’s so cool you guys got to walk through a place filled with such history and beauty! And getting to go underground the crypt was so so cool! The detail down there was crazy! And Baby Ghoul blended beautifully into the nature of this cemetery! Got chills but in all the best ways! Thank you for this both of you! Love you guys 👻💚🦇
He was cremated, so no grave sadly.
That cross headstone at 8:15 into video is gorgeous
Thank you guys for the longer content !!!! Saved to watch later ❤❤
Michael, you had mentioned about loving angels in cemeteries. My husband chimes in very matter of fact, "He doesn't watch much Doctor Who does he." LOL He's so silly. I thought I'd share that with you both. Weeping Angels have kind of ruined angel statues for us a little. I still love them, but now I'm intimidated by them. I did want to say thank you for sharing all those historical treasures. The Vincent Price references were just wow. Who would have thought those tombstones were actually real. I guess I always thought it was just set dressing somewhere that was probably long gone by now. It's nice to know it still exists. Thank you both for all the research and documenting it all. It is appreciated. 😊
I’ve recently come across your channel and I’m so delighted and intrigued by the content you two provide. You two are so adorable! I’m a natural born baby ghoul (Halloween baby 👻🦇) myself and I simply cannot get enough of the entertaining and enthusiastic content from you two lovely creators. Thank you so much for giving me something to look forward to seeing. Love the love between you two and the love you respectfully put into your channel. You two have just gained a new subscriber. Thank you Michael and Jessica for all the wonderful work you put into this great collective. Greetings and much love from Pensacola, Florida. Many blessings! 💜🖤💚
I love "Theater of Blood." Vincent Price and Diana Rigg were so terrific in it! He was alternatively creepy and funny and Rigg was the loveliest femme fatale. It's a wonderful dark comedy and it's a must see for any Price fan! Thanks so much for taking us to the cemetery!
This is One of you’re best video to date very intriguing seeing the coffins ⚰️ in their state like time capsule. Your cinematography/b-roll is outstanding, keep up the great work Grimms.
FYI drone shots would’ve been amazing !
This would be so cool and fun to explore these catacombs! Thank you both very much!
Kensal Green Cemetery is down the road from where I live. Great stuff ❤
Wow, so great that you were allowed in, as always, thanks for taking us with you. That tiny baby coffin got me 😢. Love you both 🖤
The two of you are so incredibly awesome. There are many youtubers but you two are special. I can feel the love that you both put out. That's what separates you two from everyone else. I respect both of you and I think a lot of people who watch the Grimm Life Collective can really feel the energy in your videos. I learn so much from watching your content. I never will get the chance to visit the places you two been two but I really enjoy watching your adventures and cool stories you two tell. I'm down on my luck at the moment and I want to purchase a Grimm Life Collective shirt. What is your Top 5 places that you two have visited? You two are Rockstar's. Thank you Michael and Jessica Kolence. Grimm Life Collective Forever....
Very cool old place to explore would be lots os fun im sure
I love your cemetery and graveyard videos. You both always capture the haunting beauty and peace so well. The groundskeeper was so nice to let you in for sure. I also enjoy Theatre of Blood a lot, its one of my personal favourite Vincent films, him and Diana were so good!
Theatre of Blood is one of my favorite, Vincent Price films. I had seen Price back in the 80's in San Francisco, CA. In a live performance of "Oscar Wilde" (one man show). He was a master of horror and suspense with a on screen performance that drew the viewer in. I would like pay tribute to his co-star: Dame Diana Rigg, who was an extraordinary actress of stage and screen. She was best known for her performance of Emma Peel in "The Avengers" (1965 - 1968). Rigg was literally a icon for fashion and a role model for young girls. Her only daughter is Rachael Stirling, who is also an actress. Before her death (September 10, 2020), Diana Rigg had a role in Game of Thrones. She played: Olenna Tyrell (2013 - 2017). In addition, she held an official title as: Dame Enid Diana Elizabeth Rigg. Rigg also co-starred in the James Bond film: "Her Majesty's Secret Service" (1969). In addition to being a member of: The Royal Shakespeare Company (1959). Alma mater Royal Academy of Dramatic Art. - RIP, Diana Rigg
Vincent Price said that, in his opinion, Theatre Of Blood was his best movie he ever did. 👍
I love Diana Rigg too. Price and Rigg worked so well together. She played blokes so convincingly.
Love this Old Cemetery, Line-up the Shot episode, GriMMs!.... LOVES the Vincent Price, and ALL those Hammer Film gems of the 60s and 70s!.... Interesting cemetery, the way they left it un-kept ----- it does, however, look very romantic, just the same... and spooky. Thanks, for taking us all along for this UK ride, once again..... All the love, and Happy Halloween..... :^)"""""""""""""""
So beautiful, cool and creepy. Thank you guy's again.
"With that being said...we have another fantastic and wonderful video from the grimmlifecollective" 💚🙂💜
Absolutely Stunning footage under the church. The wind hitting the cemetery so perfect- wouldn’t blame you for spending the night 🙏
Ive lived in the uk all my life and explored all these places and stood exactly where you are. It is truly breathtaking and urge anyone from far to get a flight over and see it. I'll even take you for a tour at places that will simply blow your mind away. Rich in history and fantasy.
I never take it for granted that I live in such an incredible part of the world. A train ride can take a passanger past three castles! If any of your viewers want to visit, please go outside of London. Visit Lincoln, York, Durham, Glastonbury... There are places where you think 'this is Middle Earth.'
Michael, I'm so happy you & your beautiful wife Jessica can be over in Europe showing us the most amazing, creepy,spellbinding places. I can't wait to encounter these places on my next journey to England, Scotland & Ireland💖💖, as always, safe travels & love to you both from Seattle, WA
I'm genuinely speechless this time.
Next level Grimm adventure.
Speechless…hmm, I think we have reached a whole…new…level
The sadness regarding those individuals lost is immense, but to have the opportunity to remember, and pay tribute to them, phenomenal. Thank you.
Wow Holy Heck that's an awesome video Grimms I love it, and Micheal and Jessica honest truth the places you guys go are incredible 😊😊
I am a long-time subscriber to this channel and would be surprised if I have not seen each and every one of your videos. I must admit, this one is the most touching
I loved this one, and Michael gets so excited. There were some eerie scenes. You guys are getting better all the time. Love you guys
This was an awesome treat! imagine having autographs from all the actors in front of the church picture!? Am I the only one who thinks like this lol. Thanks again you too.
You're not alone! 🙂🖤
It's great to see you here again in England exploring more history. Keep up the great work guys.❤
This may be the most interesting video you guys have released. Well done!
Another awesome video. THANKS
Those catacombs are spooky. Imagine spending a night down there. 👻
Best one yet! Love this channel! This one was truly mesmerizing.
I gotta say this is the coolest video on yt right now.
I thoroughly enjoyed this.
THANK YOU
Lovely to see your new videos made in our little country. Kendal Green is so amazingly historic and I can only hope that they work on restoring it to its former glory. Breaks my heart to see it so neglected. The crypt underneath was the star of the video. Amazing. Coffins down there 200 years and still resting peacefully. I wonder who they all were and what kind of lives they led. Thank you. One of your best videos xx
My Dad was buried there. Did not even realise, all that was back there. Great film, love your enthusiasm.
This episode was amazing! Great job, guys
Happy Friday Michael and Jessica I hope you guys are doing fantastic today, I am excited for another video
I love that nature has taken over and the fact that is all decaying...like we do when we die. It's all somehow comforting and soothing watching this.
Haunting video 📹! The Grimms Rock 🪨 🎸!!
I sincerely love all of your videos, but I have to say that this might be a new favourite. This dense athmosphere within this exclusive trip into the crypt made me shiver. And still it is fascinating, informative and thrilling. Keep up this fantastic work and I am looking forward to meeting you two again some day!
Absolute brilliant video there is something so beautifully haunting about London’s cemeteries. Superb filming as always. Loved it
Can’t wait to dig into this after work. Surely, a masterpiece as always! Thank you for sharing as always.
Again, Michael and Jessica, you went above and beyond!
Much love and respect from Glasgow, Scotland! 🤗🐻🤗
That was absolutely the best! Ty to rhe Grounds keeper! Appreciate your efforts and quality content thanks Mike & Jessica! Luv&Peace 💛✌🏼💫
Wow, amazing old cemetery...beautiful place! 🪦🥀
You guys do such a good job. Really enjoy watching this content.
Got to say this is some of the best content I have seen on your channel, your British tour has been top draw Quality, so entertaining and fascinating. 👍
Another awesome video .. I know you wasn’t prepared, but the mobile phone lights added to the atmosphere it was great
That was beyond amazing. Great video GLC 🖤🌹👍🏻
Just amazing, this was my favourite graveyard visit so far. I love how you guys are fascinated but so respectful and the fact you got a bespoke visit from the caretakers.........seriously this one blew me away. 🖤
Love it! Thankyou x
Again guys absolutely fantastic thank you for showing our country some love ❤
“Theater of Blood” is awesome. Made me want to read Shakespeare.
