St Thomas à Becket Church, Warblington, Hampshire.

St Thomas à Becket Church, Warblington, Hampshire.
St Thomas à Becket Church was founded in the Saxon era, and some Anglo-Saxon architecture survives. Otherwise the church is largely of 12th- and 13th-century appearance; minimal restoration work was undertaken in the 19th century. Its situation in a rural setting next to a farm made it a common site for body snatching in that era, and two huts built for grave-watchers survive at opposite corners of the churchyard (information from Wikipedia).

Wenn ich mir diese alten Grabsteine anschaue und an eine dunkle Nacht mit Nebel denke, dann ist das genau der richtige Ort für Leichenfledderei. Zumindest könnte diese Kirche die richtige Kulisse für einen Horrofilm sein.
Eine schöne stimmungsvolle Aufnahme, Keith!
