In this special episode of Ghosts in the Mountains, we sit down with researcher, author, and podcast host Micah Hanks to dive deep into North Carolina’s long, strange history of UFO sightings. From the mysterious Lumberton encounter of the 1970s, to modern-day reports of massive, triangular crafts hovering silently over small towns—this state has a story to tell.

Micah brings his decades of insight to the conversation as we explore the cultural and historical context of these sightings, the evolution of public belief, and how North Carolina fits into the broader tapestry of global UFO phenomena.

We also share some of our own personal encounters, adding another layer of curiosity to an already compelling conversation. Are these strange crafts the result of secret technology? Mass misidentification? Or something far more unexplainable?
