Gravity Hill Investigation - Anything but Haunted

Gravity Hill is the perfect example of how stories can get blown out of proportion over the years.  Located outside of Wilkesboro/Sparta NC, the stories go like this.

If you park your vehicle at the bottom of Gravity Hill and place it in neutral, your vehicle will be pushed up the mountain.  Some even claim that hand prints will form in the dust that is on the bumper.

 

Naturally, Boone Ghost Hunters had to check this out.  On July 12th we did just that and our findings are no where as incredible as the stories that have been passed around.

 

The evening begin when our local investigators met up in Wilkesboro.  After traveling for literally hours, we had found the mysterious Gravity Hill.  This alone is not an easy task.  If you do not know exactly what you are looking for, you will miss it.

 

It should be known that Gravity Hill is nothing more than a dirt road that is surrounded by homes.  It is almost completely flat!

 

If you feel like upsetting those who live on Gravity Hill, you can always drive out there and give this a shot yourself.  We did and found absolutely nothing of interest.

Our team of investigators highly suggest that you search for another 'Gravity Hill' when performing your own investigations.  There are many claimed locations in just about every state.  This one, is completely bogus.
