Anyone have any good stories of this? I live in rural Pennsylvania so there are plenty rumored gates near me, including tunnels, holes, old buildings, and roads. But there are so many that at times you wonder if anyone actually believes it But I am interested in them...So anyone have any rumored Gateways to Hell near you?

lol,what a sucker,jk,i heard of like,a perfectly round circle,i can't rmember where though,and its like,a perfect circle and theres no vegitation growing anywhere on the border of the circle
That sounds like some kind of fungal growth. It's called a Fairy Ring.
Edit: here's some info
Fairy rings appear in any lawn, golf course or other turf areas during spring and summer months. The rings appear as either dark green or brown circular bands ranging in size from a few inches to 50 feet in diameter. The fairy ring fungus grows outward from a central point at a rate varying from a few inches to as much as several feet a year. Where several distinct rings converge, fungus activity stops at the points of contact. As a result, the circular shape of the original rings is replaced by a scalloped effect.
Mushrooms frequently develop in a circle outside of the dark green or brown ring during spring and fall after a period of heavy rainfall or irrigation. Centuries ago people thought that the mushrooms appeared where "fairies" had danced the night before-hence, the name, fairy ring.
Disease Cycle. The disease is caused by any one of a number of soil-inhabiting fungi. Development of the fairy rings starts with a germinating spore or a strand of mycleium and grows outward in all directions. The fungus feeds on organic matter in the soil. Fungal strands (mycelium) spread throughout the soil to a depth of 10 to 12 inches. As the fungus grows, the first visible evidence of a new fairy ring is a cluster of mushrooms (the fruiting structure of the fungus) or a tuft of stimulated dark green grass. Later, as the fungi spread outward from the point of origin, the ring-like pattern develops.
The initial tuft of dark green grass and the ring of stimulated grass that develops later result from the nitrogen released after the fungus breaks down the organic matter in the soil. Ae ring of brown or dead grass may also develop, caused by the depletion of soil moisture in the area where the fungus is concentrated. If you dig into the area of brown or dead grass, you will find a dense growth of white mycelium. Water will not penetrate this zone of dense mycelial growth.

Fairy Circles have fungus growing around the circle. I've heard of the circle Juno's talking about. Its called 'The Devil's Circle' where it's said the Devil walks, or dances every night, causing nothing to grow there.
They can also be darker green or dead grass. I have seen both. Also if you read the information again you'll notice the following:

As you see the toadstool growth is only part of the cycle
