“Unseen forces push you up the road!”
Legend has it that this gravity hill suddenly appeared after the brutal murder of a man and his daughter in a house on this very street. Locals say that those who park their car in front of the cursed house are pushed further down the road by the spirit of the little girl's father, eager to save others from the same fate that befell them both.
Absolutely worth a detour if you're in the area. To find the gravity hill, just stop your car at the spray painted line on the road, put 'er in neutral, and then freak out as you start to roll UP THE FREAKING HILL.
The legend says that you're being pushed by the spirit of a dead guy, but skeptics (and a good look at the road), will tell you that it's just an optical illusion. Either way, it's a fantastic, free diversion on your trip, and if you've got kids, it will blow their minds.
It very interesting. We went backward first about 25 feet and stopped. Ehhh
