    Beyond the ornate 19th century headstones and crumbling mausoleums lies a world of custom and superstition that dictated death and mourning for more than eighty years. This week on the Ordinary Extraordinary Cemetery Podcast Jennie and Dianne explore the complex social norms dictating grief, the rise of spiritualism, and the eerie practices that governed Victorian society. While some of these customs have faded with time, others continue to shape our relationship with death today. Tune in for this Ordinary Extraordinary journey twixt life and death. "Passing out of the shadows into eternal day, why do we call it dying, this sweet passing away?"
