In November 1980, Granger Taylor, a 32-year-old mechanical genius from Duncan, British Columbia, vanished after leaving a note for his family claiming he was embarking on a 42-month interstellar journey aboard an alien spaceship.
Known for his extraordinary talent in restoring vehicles and building a life-size spacecraft replica, Taylor believed he could communicate with extraterrestrials. That stormy night, he disappeared, leaving behind all his possessions.
Despite extensive searches, no trace of him was found until 1986, when forestry workers discovered a blast site near Mount Prevost with fragments of a vehicle matching Taylor’s Datsun pickup, along with human bone fragments and a piece of clothing possibly his. No full body was recovered, and the cause of the explosion remains unclear.
Theories range from a tragic accident involving explosives Taylor may have carried, to mental health struggles, or even the possibility he staged his disappearance. The mystery endures, with no definitive evidence confirming his fate or the alien claims.
