2. The Devil’s Tramping Ground, US
There is a patch of land in North Carolina that seems to be barren through and through. Nothing will grow on it and locals said that there were attempts to spend the night there but they never seemed to be able to follow through with it. The barren land is in a shape of a circle, 12 metre (40ft) in diametre and is given the name “The Devil’s Tramping Ground”. Stories says that every night at midnight, the Devil would come out and would go there to stomp around in circles while planning his night.
Anyways, attempts of growing plants on it have been done but nothing will grow. Even scientists tried researching and trying to come up with a definite answer, could’nt find the answer. All the scientists could find was that the soil within the circle had a higher pH level and higher concentration of zinc, sodium and copper compared to the ground outside the circle. But the readings of these concentrations shows that it is not enough to prevent things from growing on it. There is also another anomaly at the place. That is compasses seems to be inaccurate in the circle. For now, this place remains a mystery that even science couldn’t figure out.
