Mystery Hill-America's Stonehenge

Mystery Hill
America's Stonehenge
North Salem, NH

If you've never heard about Stonehenge, you've probably been living under a rock for many centuries. However, Mystery Hill, or "America's Stonehenge" is a different story. Deep inside the woods just above the Massachusetts border in North Salem lies an ancient stone like village that has become a popular New Hampshire tourist spot.

Nobody knows how old this village is exactly but using the Earth's rotation, scientists have agreed that the village looks to be some 3,500 years old. Some say it is a astronomical calendar because of the fact that the walls all aligned to observe celestial events such as Winter and Summer Solstice. It has twenty chambers with a primitive but effective drainage system and it also has a sacrificial stone table. This popular, but yet scary, location adds to the mystic nature of Mystery Hill, but was it to actually sacrifice people or was it something else? The table, which is actually a stone the length and width of a regular person, has a drainage system to catch the blood. Now, were they actually sacrificing people or were they using this table to embalm their dead like we do now? Because embalming was actually known back in the ancient Egyptian days, but who knows? History brings mysteries.

Paranormal at Mystery Hill? Oh yes, this is Scared Sheetless after all, folks. Strange lights and shapes have been witnessed. Photos of orbs and strange light forms have been recorded. Sensitive's feel that the people who created the site have remained and their energy has stayed behind. Scientists are working to determine the mystery behind the hill, however, some are not in a rush as the mystery does give it its spooky, but yet delightful nature.

Want to go to Mystery Hill? It's open to the public and here's the directions: Take Interstate 93 to Exit 3, follow Route 111 East for 4.5 miles. There should be a sign for the site, take a right at the traffic lights. Follow for 1 mile and the entrance should be to the right.
