Hell, Michigan

Blink your eyes and you will miss this town, but a lot of people make the trek out to Hell just to say they've been there and back. Founded by George Reeves and incorporated back in 1841, it has stood the test of time. It's an interesting biker haven with an ice cream store, putt putt golf and Hell's Kitchen where they sell sandwiches and a lots of souvenirs. The Pinckney Recreation Area surrounds Hell and makes for a wonderful scenic drive.

Hell's Half Mile

Bay City's big film festival is Oct 1-4 in their block called Hell's Half Mile (it used to be a row of brothels used by the shanty boys back in the 20th century). Don't we love a bit of colorful history? The renovated State Theatre is a wonderful example of art deco. The big block party to kick it off takes place Thursday night, October 1st with the movie Timer. Check out the films and schedules at hhmfest.com
