The Mystery Castle is located in the Foothills of South Mountain Park (two miles south of Baseline Road) at 800 E. Mineral Road in Phoenix, Arizona 85040. To visit, take 7th Street South to Mineral Road, then head east and follow the road to the Mystery Castle entrance. Building such a house on a slope is an ideal step towards creating a mystery spot. Part of the floor may be hidden by burying, or by covering it up with regular articles in a household. Most of the things that give you a vertical reference point are removed or placed in a slanted fashion.
