The Hunt

Blink and you could miss it—the Richview Memorial Cemetery sits nestled on a thin slice of land between two of North America’s busiest highways. The cemetery is guarded by one Randall Reid, but not all such places are so fortunate. In our first episode, producer Stefanie Phillips digs into the world of “cemetery hunters”, a unique special interest group that tracks down cemeteries that are forgotten, bereft of the churches and communities that once surrounded them—and in imminent danger of being paved over to become parking lots. What does the future of our cemeteries look like—and who will save them when we’re gone? This is Stef’s paradigm.
