Homes For Sale In The Town Of Kill Devil Hills NC

Kill Devil Hills has an odd name but the story behind it brings to life the folk history of the area. Rum was the drink of choice back in the colonial times. A ship wrecked on the shores of Kill Devil Hills laden with a shipment of rum. The locals scavenged the shipment, as was customary in those days, and hid the rum behind the sand dunes where the Wright brothers later flew the first plane. The rum was strong enough to "Kill the devil" and those dunes where the rum was hidden was nicknamed Kill Devil Hill and the name has stuck like a sandspur.

On December 17, 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright made the first successful power-driven airplane flight from the sand dune known as the Kill Devil Hill near the town of Kitty Hawk. History records the first flight in Kitty Hawk but the location of the flight was actually in Kill Devil Hills.

Kill Devil Hills is the oldest town on the Outer Banks of North Carolina having incorporated in 1953. Still a baby of a town compared to most localities across the US, it is the most established town on the Outer Banks.
