I remember in the early game, Al gave me a gravestone. I had no idea gravestones were items in the game and from that point on, I was obsessed with the idea of creating a graveyard. I waited not so patiently to find the "western style stone" DIY...and it took AGES!!!! As soon as I found it, I went to work creating a graveyard just outside of my spooky town.
I love a graveyard in real life, some of my best vacation memories are of visiting graveyards. Some of my best childhood memories too. You'll see more graveyards on future islands, but this is my very first and it's so, so lovely.
The rock garden was inspired by the movie The Village. I thought it would be so great to follow a path (behind the pumpkin patch) through the woods and stumble onto a creepy rock garden filled with flowers of "the bad color". You can see one of the scary red-cloaked monsters up on the hill to the right!
I'm so proud of this rock garden, because I made it without time-traveling AND on a sparsely decorated island. I filled every spot I could with pathing and mannequins in order to get them to spawn where I wanted them. It took forever, but when that last rock spawned, I was SO happy and it was well worth the time and effort.
