The Devil's Tramping Ground....


This barren circle is said to be a place that the Devil paces in a circle contemplating his evil deeds...

                               Located near Siler City,NC  about an Hour from here...

Nothing will grow in this circle of earth... even University were baffeled at being unable to give a reason (they did Many soil sample tests)....
                        Some of the tales of this spot... and some Occult beliefs about it..

                            The Devil is even said to often sit upon this stump...

                     this Stump was still a tree (just outside of the circle) till it too died...

                                       Sounds like a cool "camping spot"....

                         Here is a Map .... showing how to get to this location....

               But that Stump died Decades past... its gnarled remains are all that is still there

                                This is the path that leads to the Circle...
This video is informative of some of the Natural "hazards" that you may encounter in this area...
                                      A News story with a bit of Background about it...
                                  It was already there when the earliest settlers arrived...

                        just a barren spot in the woods... or something more sinister...???

These days folks have littered the area up with their left behind trash... folks have no respect for things these days... sad but true... but visit this Carolina landmark should you be passing through the area... You may rather visit in the daylight...
 after dark... you could run into something that might be "unsetteling"... or, it could just be "Folklore"
                           ... Then again you Meet the Devil himself, Kiddies....
                                               Hope that it is a "pleasant" meeting...
