In this episode of Mysteries of UFOs, we examine the Travis Walton Abduction, one of the most famous alien abduction cases in history. In 1975, Walton and six coworkers spotted a UFO in the Arizona forest. When Walton approached the object, a beam of light struck him, and he disappeared. After a massive search and rising suspicions of foul play, Walton reappeared five days later, claiming he had been taken aboard a spacecraft and examined by alien beings.
The story gained national attention, with multiple witnesses, passed polygraph tests, and enduring consistency in their testimonies. Though skeptics suggest it could have been a hoax or hallucination, the case remains one of the most compelling and controversial UFO encounters ever recorded.
