Yesterday I took my daughter on a search for "Hell Town" on my NC. The mysterious town that was abandoned around 1970 and left for reasons unknown. Everything from a toxic chemical spill to "Mellon Head" creatures to Satanists were blamed.
The real reason, Govt pulled eminent domain on the town to help expand a nature reserve, but that just doses't should as cool.
I grew up just 8 miles form Hell Town and remembered going there in the 80's and it was scary... a full abandoned town!
But now returning some 30 years later, most of the town is gone and hardly anything is left... The road called "The end of the world" and a barn is all that we could find.
BUT my daughter loved the experience.... Point of notation... if you think you might be going on a 5 mile hike which is a lot of uphill, bring something else besides your motorcycle boots... YOUCH!
Road Closed on the way to "Hell Town"
The walk to the hill. (this is where several of the old abandoned houses use to be)
The "end of the world" drop off...
Gravel road that starts off the old abandoned road
A bridge in the middle of the woods...
Evil barn thing...
