Tombstone Tuesday!
Once again, like the 'Fear' and 'Lament' stones in St. Catharines' Victoria Lawn Cemetery, I happened to come across this gravemarker with the name 'Skelton' that just seemed all too appropriate in a place filled with skeletons.

Something about the perfect sphere of polished granite resting on the top of this marker in St. Catharines' Victoria Lawn Cemetery just called my attention to it. I'm not exactly sure why, though.Maybe because it reminded me of a crystal ball, like the PalantÃri of Tolkien's Lord of the Rings saga or Maerlyn's Rainbow in Stephen King's Dark Tower cycle. Or perhaps because the gravestone as a whole looks a bit like a life-sized pawn on a wizard's chessboard, like the one in J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone.

Though spelled slightly different, this gravestone in St. Catharines' Victoria Lawn Cemetery instantly reminded me of the Marvel Comics character Daimon Hellstrom (aka: The Son of Satan, Hellstorm). He was first introduced in the pages of the original Ghost Rider comic back in the '70s, but is probably best remembered as a member of The Defenders and husband to teammate Patsy Walker (aka: Hellcat).

Like the "Fear" gravestone from last month, this grave marker in St. Catharines' Victoria Lawn Cemetery with the name "Lament" struck me as being eerily appropriate for the setting.

This marker statue at Victoria Lawn Cemetery in St. Catharines looks like it's ready to give the Almighty a whupping with its beating stick . . .

Here's a grave marker from St. Catharines' Victoria Lawn Cemetery that caught my eye. What could be more terrifying than having to face Fear itself in a graveyard? I think I know what Blue Oyster Cult would tell me . . .

A word of advice for the groundskeeper of St. Catharines' Victoria Lawn Cemetery: If you trim some of that shrubbery back, your Johnson will look much bigger.
