I'm trying to understand how this is possible. The screenshot below shows two page views. both are .html files, but my site has ZERO .html files in it. My site also does not have a /h/
directory.
My entire site consists of static .php files within one main directory (not /h/
). The only reason .php is used is to pull in common navigation and ad placements. No pages are created dynamically and there is no admin panel. Everything is created on my workstation and uploaded.
I'm trying to figure out if my site was hacked or what could cause this to happen. Any insight is greatly appreciated.

Have you contacted your hosting support and what did they tell about this? Usually they can run a scan and also you can check the log files to know more information.

If you're worried about your web server, your first call should be the log files. If it was a hit to your web server, you will see it in the access logs.
However, it could also just be tracking code re-use. Someone else made a site, copied your tracking code, and accessed those two pages on their own server. Google Analytics allows you to use the same code across multiple domains, so all this traffic will appear in the default "All Web Site Data" view for the property.
To eliminate this as a possibility, try adding a filtered view that only includes your domain.
