I have always thought about going back someday, and now I have a good excuse. My girlfriend just moved down to a place off of Woodinville-Duvall road, and not too far away, and I think of the place every time I drive there.
If anyone on here wants to revisit this place shoot me a mail and I'd love to do a more thorough investigation of the place.

I want to go back, but it is private property. When I was younger I knew a girl whose relatives owned that land as well as all the land surrounding Paradise Lake. Many of her relatives are buried there, and she still goes to visit them (I talked to her about it a couple years ago). Her family sold the land back to the county, and then eventually the county sold the land to a man that also has relatives there. The cemtery is practically in his back yard. The ghost hunters group I used to be a part of tried to ask him for access to preform and investigation, but he was very adamant about not letting ANYONE in. I don't think it would be a good idea to try and go there. There has been a huge amount of vandalism over the years; in fact when I went there were beer can & bottles all over the ground. The owner would probably call the cops if he saw anyone there; it is his property. It's a shame though because I know there is activity there.

I always thought those 13 steps to hell were the natural terraces you see as you look down the hill from the cemetery? There were (when we were there in the late 80's/early 90's) a ton of burned out and wrecked cars, all littering that steep embankment. It was very strange, as it looked as though they would have had to been driven from the cemetery itself, and really, the cemetery is just a clearing... not a proper cemetery with a road winding through it or anything. Not sure what was up with that.
A friend who lived up there claimed that when we was a kid, his pet goat was stolen and sacrificed at the cemetery. I tried to call his bluff, but he said the stories of Satan worshippers in the cemetery were very real, as he saw them walking up there. He had no doubt as to who stole his goat.

The strangest thing i've heard about the cemetary was the reports of seeing "men in black" out there in the middle of the night. Like FBI officials called in to clear the kids out. They never talk too much, but tell the people to get out and then mysteriously vanish. It could all be BS but I've heard the same story from a couple people that don't know each other.

And, in parting from you now,
This much let me avow---
You are not wrong, who deem
That my days have been a dream:
Yet if hope has flown away In a night,
Or in a day, In a vision, or in none,
Is it therefore the less gone?
All that we see or seem
Is but a dream within a dream.

Well I think we really missed a huge part ofteh cemetary cause we couldn't find any more paths after only 5 minutes!! Also to note is we saw a grave as recent as 2003 so it is definitely still being used... The entire time we were there I felt even less scared then when I was trekking up the mountainside towards the cemetary...it was dead as far as I was concerned - not scary at all....so anyways we walked up to the end of the last path we could find but I thought it MIGHT actually go on a bit through the bush which may have just grown over the path so I began to take a step off the path to use my flashlight to check out the area I thought might be an extension of the path and that's when I heard what sounded very much like a cat "eeeoww!!"ing right next to my feet as if I had stepped on its foot or something and I immediately yelped out a "ah!!!" which echoed through the WHOLE forest....I was caught off guard once again....well after only 3-4 seconds I realized it was just my shoe that squeeked and not a cat cause they do squeek from time to time.....that was the closest experience any of us had there and I am confident it was just my shoe....Unfortunately our trip to Maltby Cemetary ended in disappointment as we weren't even scared, much less did we witness anything...I'm no daredevil either; it's easy to scare me...
So ya unfortunately I can't contribute to any of the scary stories about Maltby....
Oh ya and the guy that we ran into (the couple) did say he saw the "13 steps to hell" 15 years ago when he was here and that he did see a rock/step on the base of the ground that is likely where the 13 steps are/were but I guess he never did walk down them 15 years go cause that's all he said about it....so we continued our night by going to the Everett Cemetary (not scary either) and there we checked out the Rucker Tomb which is like a 50' tall pyramid of atomb!! It was awesome...and designed in such a stair-like manner that you could easily climb up to the top - although a tad creepy was the fact that there were barred openings about 3/4 up the pyramid to allow ventilation....Then we ended the night by going to Denny's and having French Toast, lol it was awesome...
But anyway I'm still on the lookout for my first potential paranormal experience (and so are my friends) so if you guys have anywhere else in the Seattle-Mount Vernon area that may be haunted or just scary let me know please!

However I have since been told by one of my friends that went with me that him and his lady friend actually saw another path that we didn't go through but the lady was too scared to go that way so she told him not to tell the rest of us that they found this path....I donno if its anything big but I KNOW we did not see the whole cemetary cause if we did it is the world's freakin' smallest cemetary! So we will be going up there again (now that I know where it is located it won't take more than half an hour to get there this time so that'll make the trip a lot easier!) soon....not sure exactly when but if not this weekend then I can almost guarnatee next weekend...hopefully I experience at least some kind of fear while I'm there this 2nd time, bring it on!!!

We got there between 3:30 and 3:50am at a rough guess, Friday January 18th. Well all was normal (yes, being here a third time means I can say "normal" like I'm accustomed to the atmosphere, lol) Anyways so we walk up the path to the cemetary noticing 2 things.
1. THere was more garbage then last time indicating that people still go up there on a regular basis.
2. There was a bit of snow on the broken down branches across the path - except in the middle of some - indicating people had stepped on the branches since it last snowed so they've been there recently!
Alright so we went left when we first entered the cemetary - nowhere we haven't been I think to myself - and I'm shining my flashlight around and BAM I see it....a silver, shiny ladder down in the woods a bit going up to a tiny tree fort was reflecting itself right back at me. This isn't too major right? RIght...I am positive this ladder was not there either of the last 2 times, and I don't remember the little tree fort (almost big enough for 3 people to lay on) being there although my friend did so Iwas like "ya ok whatever". I'm far from an expert but, although everything was wet out tonight, the wood for the tree fort looked fresh - like someone had just built it. I do not suspect ghosts put the ladder there but rather humans - I just thought that I should point out that some sort of local human activity is going on in addition to the strangers that come to Maltby for the possible thrill. Ok moving on...
So after we've ventured around the trails to get down to the level of the tree fort we continue into the woods. We didn't see anything abnormal here but spent a good 15mins exploring - it didn't help that there was melting snow ALL around us so everytime we were dead silent we'd always here water going down the mountain (faintly).
So now that we've been down there a good 15 mins (probably been at the cemetary for 25mins or so now) we decide to head back up to the main trail near actual gravestones. Basically there's only two levels that the trails go and beyond that it's make-your-own-path with no more gravestones. So we're venturing back up when we finally get back onto the 2nd (lower) trail and we stand there for a second just flashing our lights around trying to see anything abnormal. Alright heres where it gets interesting! We stood there for a second cause we thought we heard something so we were all got really quiet (there were 3 of us by the way) and when we did that it sounded like someone was rustling the bushes 40' down walking through the forest...it wasn't obvious; but possible. So we got a tad creeped out. THEN we shine the flashlights straight ahead on the trail and both my friends immediately saw something. THey said they saw one full-body ghost that moved across the path and then stood there for a little while just looking at them - at one point my friend said he felt it was walking, SLOWLY, toward us. THey also reported seeing an Orb beside the ghost. Unfortunately I have VERY bad eyes and I could not verify either of these sightings - they thought I had to be blind. So we stand there with the flash lights on while my friend takes a few steps forward and, as he had done many times in the past 25mins, opens the Voice Recording program on his cell phone. He says something along the lines of "We are not here to harm you, we just want to communicate with you, please." and then we all stood there as silent as possible while he held his cell phone up high in the air. Alright so after 15 seconds or so he ends the feedback...more on this later in this post.
About this time we go the opposite way of the Orb and the ghost and loop our way up to the first trail - where my 2 friends swear they saw another full-body ghost at the end of the trail (just above where it was on the lower-level) and they get freaked once again - I unfortunately couldn't see it so I got the short end of the stick there... Now they are especially freaked out and just want to leave - as do I since their reactions were scaring me. So we high-tail it up to the lawn and officially get out of the cemetary. It only got worse from here...On our way down the ~7 minute path towards my car things got real freaky. The very first thing I noticed was that it was extremely FOGGY all of the sudden! Neither of the first two times we were there did it get foggy...btw this was at approximately 4:38am and when we arrived between 3:30 and 3:50am there was NO fog whatsoever - I remember walking up the path flashing my light anywhere I chose with no visibility problems....Alright so now that its' foggy and I point that out to my friends they immediately stop me and look straight down the trail only to see THREE ghosts!!! Now this is where I got some of my excitement for the night - I may have seen my very first ghost in my whole life. I was squinting hard and the ghost I think I saw was kind of at the "end of my comfortable vision radius" so it was blurry thus the reason I'm unsure of what I saw. Now that being said, what I believe I saw was a full-body ghost standing behind a very thin bush leaning his head out around the bush so as to look at us. After a few seconds I believe I saw him pull his head back and also pull his leg back - completely removing himself from view for a second. Then I blinked my eyes and he reappeared - is my mind playing tricks on me to tell my brain it is seeing what it wants to see OR am I really seeing a ghost?! I'm still not sure.. dang my crappy vision...Well I still couldn't see either of the other 2 ghosts my friends saw but after a few minutes they said the 3 ghosts were gone so we ventured on down the path some more - only to find MORE GHOSTS! I, once again, did not see them but both my friends swear they saw 3 more ghosts standing out over a slight embankment beside a tree. While looking for these 3 ghosts I noticed what appeared to be a floating T-shirt directly above them in the tree...I pointed this out to my friends and they were like "Dang, I didnt' see that before but now I do, looks like someone is hanging there!" Which reminds me that earlier my friend did say he thought he saw someone hanging from a tree down in the forested area... So again, after a few minute wait, we decide these ghosts have left and continue down the path - at a faster pace this time - then about a minute later my friends see another ghost (again, I still can't seem to see it for myself) and after waiting for this one we pick up the pace even more and head down to the car. I was in the front of the group and my friend in the back was constantly watching our back on the last stretch to the car. This is when he got REALLY FREAKED OUT as he said the last ghost was following us, legs were swishing away into bushes and other things were happening and they kept happening as he would go forward a few feet and look back again, creepy!! So we practically jog down to the car now and I start'r up and rip it out of there going away from town at first simply cause it was the quickest route out of there - I was pretty freaked out myself! So I go down the road a few miles and then turn around and come back thinking we might see something as we pass the turn-off we were parked at but no, nothing was there except fog. So I feel slightly relieved at this point and drive the 2.5 miles to town and park at the first gas station so we can listen to my friend's 5-6 cell phone recordings under a street light near other drivers to feel safe at last.
We play the first audio recording, nothing...
We play the second audio recording, still nothing...
The third recording, a faint sound near the end like "chhhh chhhh" kinda like a radio...didn't think much of it.
Fourth recording....Oh my freaking gosh!! We're listening to Doug (friend with the cell phone) do the introductory sentences "If you are out there, we just want to communicate with you please. Kevin especially." (I'm Kevin btw) and then his ~15 seconds of blankness....only to hear at the end a VERY CLEAR ghost whisper/lowvolume talk! This is what it said without a doubt in mind, "They're after you." The second I heard this tears of frightenment went down my face....that was freakin' scary! I've actually got a little bit of watery-eye right now just typing it up!...This is by far the most indisputable evidence that paranormal activity exists in my life!
Oh and then after I drop Doug off and am taking Ashley home we were talking about the nights happenings and she informs me as to why she was SO MESSED UP from the point we got into the car to the point we left the gas station. (She was wide-eyed, very quiet, and clearly uneasy...I was worried a little bit.) You know what she told me? There were two ghostly FACES IN THE CAR until we got to the gas station in Maltby, one on her right side (so within only a few inches of her) and the other in the passenger's seat!!! I only drive an Eagle Talon too so there isn't much space in the back seat between the two passenger's - much less one right on the window! Doug saw these two as well I guess...I'm kinda glad they didn't tell me cause then I might ahve been nervous to drive knowing a ghostly face was right behind me and all!
So ya, that concludes my THIRD trip to Maltby Cemetary and I now have hard evidence that something exists there! Doug is going to upload the audio recording onto the computer and email it to me then, when I remember, I'll post it up here for you guys to hear! Now I don't expect half of you to believe what you hear because if it were me listening to it for the first time and I wasn't on-the-scene I would think it was just 2 friends tryin' to mess with people but since I witnessed it first-hand man do I believe it....
Oh and one last thing, the fog near the beginning of the path went away after we went through it and shined our lights back....thick one minute to non-existent the next!
Tonight was really really really freaky. We are planning to go again, hopefully next Friday but nothing is set in stone yet. I'll post our results on that after we go.
