This place is located in the Chainsky district of the Tomsk region and is a narrow area of land 300 m long, which rises above the surrounding swamps. Abnormally fast vegetation of plants was noticed on the cape. It is all overgrown with cedars, the height of which reaches 50 m. Due to this, even on a sunny day, dusk reigns on the cape.
People who get there feel a sense of fear and depression. In addition, they have arrhythmia and an increased heart rate. Animals practically do not enter the cape, trying to bypass it. Local residents from the villages of Vargater and Vostochnoye consider this area cursed. Some also noticed UFOs over the cape.
Scientists believe that iron ore deposits are located at a depth of 10 m under Cape Mogilny. In their opinion, it is here that the junction of different layers, carrying a positive and negative magnetic charge, passes.
Researchers of paranormal phenomena explain what is happening nearby burials of the Kulai culture. They believe that ancient sanctuaries create an energy field around them that affects the psychophysical state of people.
Local residents have two explanations for what is happening. According to the first version, until the 70s of the XX century, there was a burial ground for spent radioactive waste from the Siberian Chemical Combine next to this cape. They were taken out on a narrow-gauge railway and simply dumped into swamps. The second version is based on the fact that not far from Cape Mogilny, stages of space rockets launched from the Baikonur cosmodrome fell.
For science, the anomalous zone was discovered in 1984 by the efforts of a journalist from Sverdlovsk M. Glukhov. He came to the Tomsk region on a creative business trip and stayed in the village of Vostochnoye. Then the locals told him about the cape on which relict cedars grow, after which Glukhov tried to explore the anomalous zone.

In his diary, he wrote: “Absolute silence reigned there, not broken even by the rustle of cedar branches and birdsong. Cold darkness fell from the spreading crowns of giant coniferous trees, which were covered with bright sunlight.
The further the journalist went to the tip of the cape, the stronger an inexplicable feeling of anxiety and melancholy grew in him, which forced him to turn back soon. Three years after returning from the anomalous zone, M. Glukhov died of cancer.
Subsequently, several expeditions were equipped to explore Cape Mogilny. Their participants, among other things, collected and recorded stories of local residents.
So, M. E. Shabashnikova said that in 1947 her mother, father and uncle went to the cape for mushrooms. By midday they came out into a small clearing. Uncle sat down on a fallen tree, and mother and father settled on the ground. The woman spread a handkerchief beside her and began to lay out her supplies for a snack. Turning to call her uncle, she saw that there was no one on the trunk. The couple searched for a relative until late in the evening, but never found.
I. A. Troitsky recalls that in the early 1950s, while still a boy, he worked as a shepherd on a collective farm. Once a cow ran away to Cape Mogilny. The boy went after the fugitive and soon found her. The cow stood motionless and made no attempt to escape. The boy touched her and horror seized him. The cow was cold to the touch and as if made of rubber. Ivan screamed. Then the cow seemed to come to life - moaned, as if in pain, and rushed towards the village, not making out the road.
In 1985, members of an expedition organized by the newspaper Komsomolskaya Pravda observed three milky-white glowing balls hovering over the cape. The UFOs formed an isosceles triangle, and then, rotating rapidly, headed for the ground and disappeared into the cedars.
Local residents claim that in the 90s of the XX century, a UFO crashed at Cape Mogilny, whose luminous debris was scattered throughout the district.
The facts gathered support this theory. There are many eyewitnesses to how on February 26, 1984, an explosion of a bright flying object took place over the territory of the Tomsk region, which even received the official name "Tomsk bolide".
Many local residents met mysterious unusual creatures on the cape. They claim that gnomes live on Mogilny, whose small silhouettes can sometimes be seen on moonlit nights. Gnomes seem to live in deep burrows under the roots of trees and feed on fish, which are found in abundance in the nearby lakes. Old-timers, however, believe that “these are not gnomes at all, but ghosts rising from ancient burials.
