• The doors to the brand new Pine Bush UFO and Paranormal Museum in the Town of Crawford, New York held its Grand Opening on June 4th. The museum is described as an ‘interactive experience’ where each of the exhibits will depict “a mysterious and inexplicable event reported in New York’s Hudson Valley”. Visitors to the museum can share stories and conversations about their own paranormal experiences. You can even experience what it is like to get ‘abducted’ by aliens (well, not for real). (see the museum website here)
• The Hudson Valley has become known as a hotspot for the paranormal. This is the region where The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and the headless horseman stories by Washington Irving were derived when, according to the legend, a Hessian soldier was decapitated by a cannon in 1776 around the time of Halloween and continued to ride – headless.
• Native Americans told stories of how what is today Bannerman Island in Dutchess County is possessed by evil spirits. Sailors believed that goblins controlled the winds and brought dangerous storms to the area. With miles and miles of dense woods and water sources in the region, there have even been numerous Bigfoot sightings and encounters in Hyde Park, Highland, Pawling, Pine Plains, and other surrounding areas of the Hudson Valley.
• The Hudson Valley is also known as ‘the Area 51’ of the East Coast which experienced “The Hudson Valley Wave” of UFO sightings in the Lower Hudson Valley area in the 80s.
