Travis Walton Abduction, 1975
from Think Anomalous
There is probably no case of alien abduction more widely known than that of Travis Walton, a 22-year-old logger from Snowflake, AZ. Travis's case includes a number of details that strongly suggest at the involvement of extraterrestrial beings; but it also has some similarities to older accounts of "abduction" in other times and places.
