Ten miles east of Siler City in Chatham County North Carolina is the devils tramping ground and one of the most unusual paranormal spots in North Carolina. There is a foot wide path that forms a ring 40 foot around and it is said that it was the devil himself who created this phenomenon. The center of the circle and the area outside the circle are lush with grass and plant life but nothing grows inside the path. If you place a large stone or other heavy object on the path it will be moved out of the way by the next morning. Nothing is allowed to lay on the path and it is a historical fact that the circle or so called Devils Tramping Ground has been here since 1800 or before.

The Devils Tramping Ground, A True N.C. Paranormal Mystery

Hunters who have had rabbit hounds in the area say that dogs refuse to enter or cross the area of the Devils Tramping Ground. Men on horseback say that horses react the same way. They refuse to cross or go in the area of the Devils Tramping Ground.

Over the years paranormal investigators have been to the area of the Devils Tramping Ground many times but have never been able to prove what it is or is not. It is a known historical fact that vegetation will not grow there. Scientists from the US Geological Survey team have been to the area to find out why nothing will grow there but they could not find any reason for the absence of vegetation in the area of the Devils Tramping Ground. Maybe the devil himself does come and walk here every night walking around and around to try to come up with what we don't know. What we do know is that the Devils Tramping Ground is there today the same as it was in 1800 near Bennett North Carolina.

Stories about the Devils Tramping Ground are well known in the area and its said you can carry and place a large rock in the center of the path there and in the morning it will be moved over out of the way. The area is also said to frighten some people and they refuse to go anywhere near the area.
