Mystery Hill...A Great Place To Visit


Each year, for over 50 years, guests have come from all over the world
and from all over the United States to visit Mystery Hill.
No matter what the reason, they come back time and time again, bringing relatives and friends to experience the mystery of our "crooked house."
People do remember the remarkable defiance of gravity, where you can see a ball roll uphill, and where folks are pulled from an upright position to an uncanny standing angle of nearly 45°.
This strange phenomenon has been amusing and puzzling visitors to Mystery Hill for generations.
Since there is a variety of things to see and do, no one leaves disappointed.
Mystery is a family oriented "edutainment" center that offers fun for children ages 2 to 102.
We welcome you to join us at any time of the year.

Group Rates:
Please call for current prices and rates for groups of 12 or more. We welcome tour buses. There is plenty of Free Parking and a picnic area.

Season Passes:
Your ticket serves as an all-day pass. The best deal is a season pass so you can visit us time and time again. You'll get free admission for one full year. The cost for the pass is only $50 for a family of four (2 adults & 2 children). Individual passes are available also.

 

HALL OF MYSTERY

You'll find a hall full of puzzles, hands-on experiments and optical illusions at The Hall of Mystery. Exhibits are based on physics and other science and math theories. Leave your shadow on the wall and at the Bubble-Rama exhibit, encapsulate a friend in a bubble. The Spooky Spigot, Magic Lightbulb, Hologram and The Flying Mirror are all in the Hall of Mystery. You'll enjoy the Hall of Mystery where you'll find exhibits that make you take a second look and realize that seeing is believing!

Of Course, the main attraction at Mystery Hill is The Mystery House,
where there is a stronger than average pull to the north which causes some of our basic laws of physics to work differently than normal.
Stand at a 45° angle, watch a ball roll up hill, see water flow up hill and try other fascinating experiments!
Come feel the power of Mystery Hill's gravitational anomaly!
What causes this unexplained pull?

Native American Artifacts Museum
(back to top)


During their honeymoon, R.E. "Moon" Mullins
and his lovely new bride, Irene, began the collection with three arrowheads found in Carersville, Georgia.
By 1987, when "Moon" passed away, their collection had blossomed in thousands of pieces.
Housing over 50,000 pieces of authentic Native American artifacts is The Native American Artifacts Museum.
Almost every time period of American Indian history is represented in this fascinating exhibit
that took over 70 years to collect.
From arrowheads and effigy pipes to bowls, celts and awls, this is one of the largest collections of its kind in North Carolina.
 

Appalachian Heritage Museum
(back to top)
The Dougherty Brothers, D.D. and B.B.,
founders of Appalachian State University,
called it their home.
It was built on 150 acres donated by their father for the purpose of building a school to further the education of mountain children.
It was the first house in the county
to have electricity and running water.

It is now used to portray life in the late 1800's to early 1900's of middle class mountain families.
