5 Key Facts About Granger Taylor’s Mysterious Disappearance
1) The Note and the Map
On the eve of his disappearance, Granger Taylor wrote a note addressed to his stepfather, stating he was leaving to board an alien spacecraft and would return in 42 months.
Accompanying the note was a hand-drawn map of Waterloo Mountain near the family’s farm. This map initiated extensive searches in the area but unfortunately yielded no additional clues.
2) The Stormy Night
Granger Taylor disappeared during a tempest on November 29, 1980. Heavy rainfall and strong winds created a threatening atmosphere, complicating search efforts to locate any traces of him or his truck right after his disappearance.
3) Truck Parts and Bones
In 1986, six years following Granger Taylor’s disappearance, parts of his truck and human bones were discovered on Mount Prevost. The bones were found near a blast site, indicating evidence of an explosion.
4) The Mysterious Explosion
A significant lead in this case is the mysterious explosion that may have caused Taylor’s death. The area where his truck remnants and bones were discovered suggested a powerful blast, but the cause remains elusive. Some speculate it could have been an accident involving dynamite, which Taylor used in various mechanical projects.
Others propose that the explosion might have been a planned incident, either by Taylor himself or potentially orchestrated by an unknown entity. This explosive detail only deepens the intrigue surrounding Taylor’s case.
5) Official Death Declaration
Despite the absence of solid evidence, the B.C. Coroners office officially declared Granger Taylor dead on November 30, 1986. Authorities linked the discovered truck parts and bones to an assumption of his demise due to the explosion.
However, friends and family expressed skepticism, arguing that the evidence was insufficient to come to such a conclusion.
The case of Granger Taylor continues to be an unsolved enigma. Key elements like the interstellar journey note, the stormy night of his disappearance, the truck fragments, and the enigmatic theories surrounding his fate still leave many questions unanswered.
