4. These are just the start of the many unusual and sometimes downright creepy sculptures at the Porter Sculpture Park in Montrose, South Dakota.

5. Even from the outside, the Cosmos Mystery Area might give you a bit of a headache, but when you step foot inside the buildings you'll really get dizzy - gravity seems completely out of whack

6. This Ranch Store greets you with a giant prairie dog out front and a massive skeleton bull on the roof, a combination that definitely doesn't exist anywhere else.

7. A lot of features at Wall Drug are unusual, sometimes borderline nightmare fuel.
