UFOs on the Gulf Coast
June 2, 2009 9:10 AM Subscribe
Looking for reports of UFO sightings and alien encounters in Gulf Shores, Alabama.
I was recently told that the Gulf Coast area of Alabama was a hotbed of UFO sightings and alien encounters in the 1990s. Or should I say, reports of these incidents. Googling didn't come up with anything, so I wondered if anyone had any information on this? Or has anyone even heard of this before? Thanks!

Right general area, wrong time frame, too good not to share. I hope the link works, I can't check it at work. Google Grayson Capps Green Monkey Story if the link is broken.

If I recall correctly it was part of a larger UFO flap in the 90s which coincided with the popularity of X-Files and Fox pumping up other UFO-related fakery such as Alien Autopsy. (And almost all of this the can ultimately be blamed on Whitley Strieber.)
I'm too lazy to do a Lexis search, but you could start by identifying local papers and seeing if they have accessible archives.
