The mysteries behind Camp Hero hook the attention of young thrill-seeking, myth-busters as it is notorious for people to attempt to trespass on the national historic site. So why is it so far-fetched that orphans or runaway boys would be targeted? They seem exactly the sort of subjects who would be easy to take. And Montauk would be the ideal facility. In the winter it is like a ghost town. Nichols tells his side of the story, saying that he had been experimented on and traveled through time at Camp Hero.
As there were already many rumors about psychological warfare being conducted by the military during this time, after the book release, many strangers have stepped forward claiming that they have also been a part of these experiments, coincidentally sharing similar stories to one another. Eldridge into another dimension during a secret World War II test, in an attempt to make the ship and crew invisible to radar detectors. Al Bielek claims to have discovered repressed memories in In an attempt to break down the children, they were sexually abused, waterboarded and victims of gruesome abuse.
The experiments came to an end when Nichols and a few others rebelled and destroyed all of the equipment. Nichols says that those who were involved in these events have had their memories expunged. Elisa has been an active staff writer Pick-Me-Up Playlist. Just like in "history," the experiment crew finds itself and the ship blinked 40 years forward in time.
Once in the future, they realize that the Philadelphia Experiment has been revived in the '80s, but as a way for the government to make an ICBM shield. Thanks, Cold War! The two experiments connect through a time wormhole and the generators on the Eldridge keep the portal open as it begins to suck in matter from The Philadelphia Experiment underwhelmed at the box office, but for a select few, the movie triggered a new, and old, life.
After seeing The Philadelphia Experiment in , year-old Al Bielek couldn't shake the eerie feeling that he'd seen it somewhere before. Undergoing various forms of New Age therapies, Bielek was able to uncover repressed memories of having worked on the Montauk Project in the s and '80s; he also ascertained that his memories had been locked away to keep the experiment secret.
As his memories came flooding back, he learned that his name wasn't Al Bielek, after all; born Edward Cameron, he'd also worked on the Philadelphia Experiment with his brother, Duncan Cameron, when both men were in their mids.
The Philadelphia Experiment was real, he said, and he was the proof, having lived out the World War II section of the movie. Bielek claimed that, sometime in the s, Nikola Tesla figured out how to make the U. Eldridge invisible and, in the process, opened up a time wormhole into the future that sucked in the ship.
The Cameron brothers were on board, jumping off the vessel and landing at Montauk's Camp Hero -- on August 12th, The military promptly sent them back through the wormhole with a mission: destroy the equipment on the Eldridge. According Bielek, the brothers completed their mission, though that didn't stop the government from doing more experiments on building portals into the future. During a speech for the Mutual UFO Network, Bielek described in vague terms how he'd been de-aged, had his memory wiped, and had been forced to live out the rest of his life as "Al Bielek.
Bielek referred to this version of Duncan as a "walk-in soul. Bielek's stories circulated and gained the attention of Preston Nichols, who would befriend Bielek and tell the Cameron brothers', and his own, story.
Specifically, during the s, he claimed, he'd worked with Bielek on something called the "Montauk Chair," a piece of furniture that used electromagnetics to amplify psychic powers. Duncan Cameron -- the "walk-in soul" child version born in -- was found to have psychic powers, and became the focus of many of the Montauk Chair experiments.
Apparently, Duncan could manifest objects just by thinking about them while in the Montauk Chair. One of the experiments Nichols describes sounds a lot like the experiment being performed on Eleven before she opens the portal to the Upside Down:. The first experiment was called "The Seeing Eye. He could actually see through other people anywhere on the planet.
Nichols continued to experiment with Duncan, who was such a powerful psychic that no one suspected that he was a man from the distant past inserted into a new body. He tried to harness his adept subject's powers in the Montauk Chair to conduct mind-control experiments using special radio dishes at Camp Hero. This is where the other children come in. In his book, Nichols writes of other boys being brought in and experimented on; some were sent through a portal into the unknown of spacetime.
Stranger Things lifts this theory; the name "Eleven" suggests there are or were likely 10 other subjects. In Nichols' book, these abductees are known as the "Montauk Boys," and since Nichols and Bielek started speaking about their regained memories, other Long Island men have rediscovered that they were frequently abducted from their homes by Camp Hero scientists who wanted to "break" them psychologically so that they could implant subconscious commands.
Not to create a crazy Stranger Things theory out of thin air, but who's to say that Hopper's daughter really died of cancer? After several years of experimenting with Duncan in the Montauk Chair, Nichols claims that they could reliably travel to other times and places even to Mars. It was a very dark, very evil thing. He believes he was abducted and abused during the summer of and possibly during the summer of , when he was 12 or He recalled under hypnosis that a local boy whom no one knew very well invited him to bike to the base.
The first time, Loffreno said, there were two men waiting. Dressed in civilian clothes, they ushered the boys into a sunken house on the base. Later, he said, he and other boys were brought underground through Battery , one of the sealed gunneries left from World War II. He believes some of them were later killed. It would be easy to write him off as a kook, but he is gainfully employed at the park, has a steady girlfriend and appears to have a solid relationship with his kids.
He said that, while under hypnosis, he went to the location he remembered with another parks employee, Charlie, who was also interviewed by The Post. There, they found remnants of the sunken house from his visions. Nichols, who died two years ago, claimed he was part of the so-called Montauk Project but recovered his memories only after the fact. Garetano told The Post he felt that Nichols and the others were not believable. But he went on to explore Camp Hero so doggedly that he employed a geophysicist to analyze the ground beneath the old base.
He said they found evidence of large structures not seen on any official maps. It sits on acres of thick forests and desolate wetlands with spectacular, degree views of the Atlantic Ocean and Block Island Sound.
