A tall, cross-shaped memorial in the woods near Pohick Church in Lorton, Fairfax County, is all that remains of an ambitious tomb conceived by architect Charles Mason Remey (1874-1974). Remey was an architect and early American follower of the Baháʼí Faith. In 1937, he contracted with Pohick Church in Lorton, Fairfax County, Virginia to lease land in their cemetery for a sprawling mausoleum complex. It was fitted with luxuries like chandeliers and marble reliefs. In the 1950s, however, vandals broke in and destroyed the interior. Pohick Church reclaimed the site in 1968 and took steps to secure it. Today, the site has been buried aside from this tall, cross-shaped memorial. Remey died in 1974 and is buried in Italy. #paranormal #virginia #ghost #haunted #supernatural #spooky #creepy #ghoststories
