Has anyone else actually been to the Midway Cemetary in Georgia?

Such a strange and atmospheric place to film a zombie movie, especially one supposedly set in Massachusetts.

I visited the cemetery back in 2019 and had to take the museum tour to get in. Hilariously the tour guide completely refuted my claims that a zombie movie was filmed there until I played the opening of the movie for her on my phone. She then said that the crew must have snuck in to film it since there's no way the owners would have allowed a zombie movie to film there.

That absolutely can't be true though because the movie had set up fog machines, dolly track, and high wattage lighting which would have required a high level electrician to patch into the local lines, plus it had all the principal actors there too. The local police (and church) would have definitely known about it.

Funny enough, that bent gate that Carlo De Mejo opens is still there, and was exactly the same as in the movie. The tree that the priest hung himself from was as well, but it toppled over after 2019, sadly enough.

I did get some interesting trivia though that the cemetery was actually full long before the civil war and General Sherman used it to pen in cattle. The cattle ate all the wooden crosses in the cemetery so that means that the extra climbing out of the grave was actually desecrating a real grave. The big obelisk in the cemetery is actually for the great-grandfather of Teddy Roosevelt who fought in The Revolutionary War.
