Most Well Documented Alien Abduction Ever Happened In Arizona

Whether you’re a believer, a total skeptic, or somewhere in between, it’s impossible to deny how compelling this story is. With several witnesses and polygraph tests passed with flying colors, the most well-documented alien abduction in Arizona history makes the possibility of extraterrestrial life feel all too real.

It all went down on November 5, 1975, in the small town of Snowflake. Home to just over 5,000 people, this tiny community is the perfect place for extraterrestrials to snatch someone up completely undetected - and that’s precisely what happened.

Travis Walton was working in the Apache-Sitgreaves National Forest when he encountered a saucer-shaped object hovering above the ground. As he approached the ship, a beam of light burst into view and knocked him unconscious. Upon waking up in a hospital-like room, three short, bald creatures were observing him.

A human led him into another room, where he blacked out yet again, just as a plastic mask was being placed over his face. He came back to consciousness only to find himself walking along a highway with no other memories of the encounter.

During Walton’s five-day disappearance, Snowflake residents had searched high and low to no avail. After he and his coworkers - who allegedly witnessed the abduction - all passed polygraph tests, they were awarded $5,000 by The National Enquirer.

Three years later, Walton wrote a book describing the experience in detail. This account became the basis for the 1993 film Fire in the Sky, produced by Paramount Pictures.
