Haunted Roads- Booger Mountain

Booger Mountain, also known as Gravity Hill, is said to be the spot of an unnatural experience. Dating back to the 1800s, the legend goes that two slaves kidnapped, raped, and murdered a young white girl and buried her somewhere unknown. The townspeople then, in anger, hung the two slaves from two oak trees near the edge of Booger Hill. Later, they were buried at the base of the hill, which in the 1800s dubbed as a slave burial ground. It is said that at night, if you leave your car in neutral at the bottom of the hill, the ghosts of the hanged slaves will push your vehicle up hill so you don't disturb their resting place. So be wary, you wouldn't want to disturb the dead.
