This home was built by the late Curtis W. King in 1970, around the time the original Star Trek series ended. It sits on a road leading to Chattanooga's Signal Mountain and features a retractable staircase, like any good UFO should. The three-bedroom, two-bath house was sold in 2008 for $130,900, after Cleveland, Tennessee's Crye-Leike Auctions posted it for sale on eBay.

Each time the blowhole ‘erupts’ you never quite know what you are going to get in terms of the shape and size of the water. One thing is for sure, though: you are going to get wet. |
