In this eerie season finale of The Grim, we're opening the gate and descending into one of the most iconic and haunted sites located in London England - the crypt beneath St. Paul’s Cathedral. Spanning 30,000 square feet, it is the largest cathedral crypt in Europe and a resting place for Britain’s greatest legends—and, some say, its most restless spirits.

We uncover the story of Admiral Lord Nelson, whose body lies in a black marble tomb originally carved for Cardinal Wolsey, the disgraced advisor to Henry VIII. Wolsey dreamed of sainthood, but died in exile. His tomb lay unused for centuries—until Nelson’s shattered body was brought home from Trafalgar and laid to rest where ambition had failed.

We revisit Winston Churchill’s state funeral, where Queen Elizabeth II broke royal tradition to attend and bowed her head—just once—as his coffin passed beneath the dome. And we walk the stone corridors where visitors report phantom footsteps, sudden chills, and an overwhelming sense of being watched.

And then… just a few steps from these centuries-old tombs… a café. Reopened in 2025, the Crypt Café serves lattes and pastries atop the bones of an empire.

This episode blends dark British history, true ghost stories, St. Paul’s Cathedral trivia, and haunted London travel all in one unforgettable journey below the city.

The Grim is opening the gate and entering Friedhof Ohlsdorf, a cemetery unlike any other—a sprawling necropolis located in Hamburg where grief wears a garden’s face and history rests beneath sculpted stone and owl-shadowed trees. Spanning nearly 1,000 acres of winding paths, still ponds, and towering trees, Ohlsdorf is more than a final resting place—it’s a city of the dead, where history, war, and remembrance intertwine.

Join The Grim as we explore this unforgettable cemetery’s layered past: from the Commonwealth War Graves and mass burial trench from the Hamburg Firestorm, to the graves of Nazi victims, executed resistance fighters, and soldiers lost to history. Discover chilling monuments like the sculpture of Charon crossing the Styx, and visit the Ohlsdorf Cemetery Museum, where Germany’s funeral traditions and wartime grief are preserved in stone and silence.

Along the way, meet some of Ohlsdorf’s most compelling residents: Chancellor Helmut Schmidt, anti-Nazi writer Wolfgang Borchert, and Albert Ballin, the shipping tycoon who revolutionized ocean travel but could not escape the tide of war.

With ghostly stories, war memorials, and forgotten voices echoing beneath the soil, this episode of The Grim invites you to walk the blurred line between beauty and loss. Whether you're drawn by cemetery history, World War remembrance, or stories of the haunted and heroic, Ohlsdorf will stay with you—long after the gates close behind you.
