These American Attractions Defy the Laws of Gravity and Physics — or Do They?

Gravity hills, or spook hills, are said to be gravitational anomalies where visitors can put their cars into neutral at the base of the hill and watch as the vehicles mysteriously creep up the slope.

There are several of these hills across the country and around the world, and many have become roadside attractions — especially among fans of the paranormal and supernatural. One such spot is Spook Hill, located about 50 miles south of Disney World in Central Florida. Legends abound — some say that before automobiles were popularized, even horses would struggle to go downhill. Another myth is that the hill is actually haunted by a Native American chief or an alligator that terrorized the local village and battled locals at the site.
