While there are many stories and rumors about how Kill Devil Hills got its name, the most commonly accepted story revolves around Rum! The Outer Banks, known as the Graveyard of the Atlantic, has one of the highest densities of shipwrecks anyplace in the world. Well rumor has it that one of these ships was transporting barrels of rum so bad it was said to be able to Kill the Devil!
Kill Devil Hills is best known for being "First in flight"--Orville and Wilbur Wright that is--whose flight on December 17, 1903 changed history. It is home to the Wright Brothers National Monument and museum and features models, tools and machines used by the Wright brothers during their flight experiments. There is also a full-scale model of their glider!
