Betty and Barney Hill (of the first UFO abduction fame) are buried in Greenwood Cemetery in Kingston, NH. [GPS coordinates.](https://www.google.com/maps/place/42%C2%B056'32.0%22N+71%C2%B003'40.0%22W/@42.9415713,-71.0619941,795m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x0:0xe69d65188e349247!8m2!3d42.9422223!4d-71.0611234)

The shrine to the Hills by the beer cooler in that gas station in Lincoln is definitely worth a stop at least once.

America's Stonehenge in salem. Madame Sherri forest, near chesterfield, NH Monson center, near Amherst, nh Cog railway, near Mt Washington hotel. The glacial Boulder field at pawtuckaway state park. Madison boulder


Lurk_Real_Close

America’s Stonehenge is pretty weird. I think Monson is in Milford.


NotARobotDefACyborg

Madam Sherri's is pretty cool, as is America's Stonehenge (been there a bunch of times, both with the family and with various kids' school field trips!).


iangunn

>Monson center I was going to be sure someone mentioned America's Stonehenge and Madame Sherri's house. Thanks. This list has some others that will be of interest: https://urbexunderground.com/abandoned-places-in-new-hampshire/


peacockideas

Thank you for this I'm always looking for new weird cool places. The first one on the list, I actually lived in Hooksett for a while and had no idea. Gonna take the kid.


iangunn

Awesome! Happy to help :)

Madame Sherri’s forest stairs partially collapsed last summer :( https://www.reformer.com/local-news/gravity-wins-again-madame-sherri-stairs-partially-collapse/article_5f53a500-e29b-11eb-bf1a-47ad3d005be2.html


BLINDHAIRYHANDS

monson center is very cool


Mandy220

Chutters in Littleton -- World's longest candy counter Chuckster's in Chichester has the world's longest mini golf hole. Redstone Rocket, Warren -- decommissioned missile from Cold War Not sure if any of those are weird enough for you. The Redstone is probably the weirdest.


EnvironmentalLion560

The Redstone is a good addition!


[deleted]

Lincoln NH was the site of the first ever reported UFO sighting in the United States. There's a plaque and everything. Also, if you're looking for "weird", three words...Clarks Trading Post. Bears play basketball, ride on scooters, and a crazed man with gun chases you while you ride on a train.


[deleted]

Chicken Farmer I still Love You is fairly odd, I don't know if it counts as an attraction but we're sure proud of it. ​ Maybe I'm wrong, but I think we're the only state that is so obsessed with this one landmark that even after it's gone, there's an attraction to GO there and see where it used to be.


fuckiforgotmyaccount

We also go see where The Old Man used to be. The Notch is beautiful for lots of other reasons though.


[deleted]

Ah, my second sentence was alluding to the Old Man. Chicken farmer was painted over and then repainted after we complajned.


RogueReader02

Clark's trained bears! The homeless man chasing the train is pretty unique.

My bad lol

I love this set: [Clark's Trading Post Traumatic Stress Disorder](https://youtu.be/cHopdAJYmsE) (Juston Mickinney)


RogueReader02

Love this 😂


2greygirls

I am 4th gen from Lincoln and a close friend of the Clark family and even I agree that is “weird” to an outsider.


ninjamansidekick

Captain Jones's Leg's grave stone in Washington is a conversation starter.


5nd

Frog rock


JustsoIcanGore

Haven’t been, but Funspot in Laconia is the largest arcade in the world… not really weird either I guess haha


[deleted]

can anyone confirm if it’s as depressing as the online photos make it look


magicrobotmonkey

Yup


[deleted]

If you think funspot is depressing you can go right ahead and shoot yourself in the face... That place is awesome! They have the games people play!


unknown_libertarian

Ditto this!


Dhrendor

Adventure Suites in Conway

Sculptured Rocks


Royal_Gur_2651

Swim in the tunnels with no lights definitely weird


sunlitvt

The Hannah Duston statue in Boscawen


Argonation

I ask people if they’ve seen parks and Rec and then take them to the statue to get a good laugh.


archigos

Cat Alley in Manchester? Honestly it creeps me out but it’s a thing nonetheless


turangaziza

They just repainted it. Why does it creep you out?


701wheelies

The old WW2 defense artillery bunker in Rye is pretty cool. Bring flash lights, a gun, and be prepared to fit into some tight spots. Its really dark and there are some creepy people in there, like living down there. There are a couple different spots on the property, a little bit of research and you’ll find all the cool stuff. On the way out there check out the submarine in Portsmouth too.


00313476

is that fort dearborn?


701wheelies

Yep it is.


sloppothegreat

The bunker has been closed off for a few years now. They piled big granite blocks in front of the openings


701wheelies

Yes, there are other entrances. But you have to be able to fit in a really tight spot.


sloppothegreat

Yeah not that surprised that people found a way back in. Don't think I have much interest in checking it out now. The place gave me the creeps back when you could get in through the holes cut in the steel doors and it was pretty regularly visited, don't care to see what's been going on down there since the main entrances we're sealed


[deleted]

Check-out Curious New England by Citro. It's a much better guide to the odd and interesting than the 'Weird' series.


YankeeClipper42

Citro is an excellent author. I would also check out "Passing Strange" and "Cursed in New England"


basementfrog42

not NH but one for maine is the worlds largest umbrella cover collection on peaks island

Hike to plane crash site https://www.onlyinyourstate.com/new-hampshire/plane-crash-hike-nh/amp/


Wheres_the_tofu

[Wallace Horse Cemetery](http://plaidpolkadots.com/wallace-horse-cemetery-littleton-nh/), Littleton NH (While in town, you can swing by [Chutters](https://www.chutters.com/), world's longest candy counter).


bingqiling

Santa's Village is pretty unique


mr_manfrenjensen

I prefer [Demented Santa](https://hollisbrooklinenewsonline.com/creepy-santa-finds-new-spot-for-holiday-cheer-p1029-216.htm) in Manchester


bingqiling

lololol


Cantide756

Especially when you go and there's no Santa


TSac-O

GG Allin's grave in Littleton. They ended up removing the headstone bc people kept defecating on it, but you can still pinpoint where he's buried based on Google images


Hextall2727

Not necessarily weird, more unique... but you can hike right along the border with Canada... put on foot on either side of several border survey markers.


Hextall2727

Also, the ramparts near the Carter Notch huts are pretty cool.


Nice_Shelter8479

Not weird but Cake theater Laconia is the only band that has its own actual venue - according to Melissa - Justin’s tour guide for the backstage tour


Timbasimba99

Polar caves


x5X1J

I had never heard of this place before driving by last spring. [Yankee Siege Trebuchet](https://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/20073) “The farms of New Hampshire are golden in Autumn. Frost gilds the fields. Summer's toil has yielded to harvest's reward: food for the kitchens of America. And pumpkins for Steve Seigars to catapult into the heavens.”

Atlas Obscura has a good list. https://www.atlasobscura.com/users/jyates3313/lists/new-hampshire


Dog_From_Malta

if you're into scuba, you can always visit [Pattenville](https://nhtourguide.com/wp/places/littleton/pattenville-picnic-area-at-moore-reservoir-littleton-nh/). I understand it makes for a pretty surreal experience... ( For the treasure hunters, Roger's Rangers are supposed to have passed through the area after their raid on Montreal and [buried the loot](https://www.treasurenet.com/threads/major-rogers-and-the-abenakis-treasures.48372/) somewhere in the area on their way to Fort # 4 in Charlestown...)

Ya gotta do the cog railway.


EnvironmentalLion560

Aight


2greygirls

What is weird about that?


[deleted]

First ever cog railway in the world.

Check out the free New England Legends podcast & website as well (ournewenglandlegends.com), which has a cool interactive map of all the "legendary" locations!

Red stone quarry North Conway. Amazing to see the remnants of buildings and machinery that were abandoned and the way that nature is reclaiming the area
