The Mystery Spot is a tourist attraction near Santa Cruz, California, opened in 1939 by George Prather.[2] Visitors experience demonstrations that appear to defy gravity, on the short but steep uphill walk and inside a wooden building on the site. It is a popular tourist attraction, and gained recognition as a roadside "gravity box" or "tilted house".[3][4] The site is what is known as a gravity hill and was the first of its kind to be built in California.
