Located in Edinburgh, Scotland, Greyfriars Kirkyard is considered the most haunted cemetery in the world. There is an American Flag that hangs in Greyfriars Church, because the church opened the same day the Pilgrims landed in the United States in 1620. In 1970, this flag from the White House was gifted by the American Consul on its 350th anniversary.
