EUREKA SPRINGS HAS A wide span of folklore. What with Osage Indians, the Dalton and James outlaw gangs sometimes hiding out in the woods and caves, Chicago mobsters from the Prohibition era making a ruckus, too many ghosts to count, UFO sightings galore, sky quakes among sixty natural springs on West Mountain alone and a cemetery high atop Magnetic Mountain where ley lines cross—the truth is sometimes stranger than fiction.

UFO CONFERENCE

Eureka Springs hosts an annual UFO conference each April; it is noted as one of the best UFO conferences in the country. The three-day convention features speakers who discuss UFO sightings and other related phenomena that include crop circles and alien abductions.

The annual conference was founded over three decades ago by Lou Farish (1937–2012), an understated man devoted to UFO history and research. Farish believed people see things all the time but rarely ever talk about what they see. He has been quoted as saying that no one thing drew him to study the UFO phenomenon, but he’s been interested in the subject ever since he was dropped off by the mother ship several decades ago.

Whitley Strieber, author of the book Communion, has been a speaker at the conference. Strieber claims he was first abducted by aliens as he rode a train through Arkansas.
