"Half Hell Swamp" is located approximately {{convert|2|mi|km|abbr=on}} south of Half Hell.[2] HistoryThe settlement's name may have originated in the 1800s when settlers migrating south encountered dense swamps located there. Unable to cross, they settled at that location "halfway to hell". The name "Half Hell" may have also originated from the area's early reputation for illegal activities, particularly moonshining. Finally, the name may have been a reference to the midway point—"half way to hell"—for local farmers traveling to Southport to pay their taxes.[3][4] Greenlands Farm is located in Half Hell. The Half Hell Folk Festival is held there annually.[4] References1. ^1 {{gnis|1020587|Half Hell}} {{Brunswick County, North Carolina}}{{BrunswickCountyNC-geo-stub}}2. ^{{gnis|1003788|Half Hell Swamp}} 3. ^{{cite news | last = Holland | first = Makenzie | date = October 30, 2016 | title = What’s the Story Behind Brunswick County’s Half Hell Swamp? | url = http://www.starnewsonline.com/news/20161030/whats-story-behind-brunswick-countys-half-hell-swamp | work = Star News}} 4. ^1 {{cite news | last = Schachtman | first = Benjamin | date = February 15, 2017 | title = Heaven at Half Hell: Greenlands Farm Reopens Store and Reinvigorates Family Farming | url = https://portcitydaily.com/in-our-hometown/2017/02/15/heaven-at-half-hell-greenlands-farm-reopens-store-plans-events/ | work = Port City Dail}} 2 : Unincorporated communities in Brunswick County, North Carolina|Unincorporated communities in North Carolina |
