7 Weird Small Towns in North Carolina

May 5, 2026
If you think North Carolina is all sweet tea, front porches, and people waving at strangers… yeah, that’s only half the story. This video digs into the towns that don’t quite behave. We’re talking about places with pirate pasts, glowing lights in the mountains that nobody can fully explain, haunted streets that turned ghost stories into a tourism strategy, and one location where even the dirt refuses to cooperate. These aren’t “funny name” towns. These are the spots where history got weird, stayed weird, and then decided to pass that weirdness down like a family heirloom. From the mystery of Roanoke Island and its vanished colony, to the eerie legends surrounding the Devil's Tramping Ground, to pirate-run chaos in Bath where Blackbeard once treated the place like his weekend getaway… this list covers the kind of stories that make you double-check your surroundings after dark. Some of these towns are beautiful. Some are peaceful. All of them have something just a little off about them. Watch till the end, because the #1 spot isn’t just strange… it’s one of the biggest unsolved mysteries in American history. #NorthCarolina #StrangeTowns #HauntedAmerica #WeirdHistory #WorldAccordingToBriggs A Kingdom Strange: The Brief and Tragic History of the Lost Colony of Roanoke : https://amzn.to/4d6Tgem You can also follow us: Facebook: World According to Briggs Instagram: World2Briggs Do you want to move to that perfect place?
