From the coast to the mountains, Maine is full of beautiful places. One of our favorites is the Allagash Waterway, a protected area that runs from Aroostook County into Piscataquis County. Here in Maine, the further north you travel, the fewer people you’re likely to run into. In fact, the Maine North Woods sees significantly fewer tourists than some of the more accessible spots, which means the beauty is pristine. It allows for some true peace and quiet and it’s not uncommon to see people enjoying the area on their own. It seems some places just lend themselves to some solo self-reflection.
They began paddling back to shore. Rather than arriving back on shore and pulling the boat inland, the next thing they remember is simply being back. The light was gone.

However, in 1988 two of the men began having terrible nightmares. The frightening dreams included images of four men sitting naked on a bench, feeling terrified.
They enlisted the help of UFO researcher, Ray Fowler, who hypnotized them and recorded them each telling a tale of being abducted and probed during their 1976 Allagash trip.
The four men continue to claim that what happened was real, Ray Fowler maintains that it is possible and psychiatrist and author Dr. John Mack has studied the case as well. Nobody has been able to prove that it is not real.
