Summary

Long before “UFOlogy” became a pop-culture craze, one curious Michigan teen was already out there chasing lights in the sky. In the mid-1960s, while his friends were lost in the worlds of comic book heroes and alien adventures, Steve Ward was living one for real. Strange crafts were being reported over the Midwest, glowing shapes darting through the night, and supernatural activity spreading through nearby towns.

Most kids would’ve stayed inside with a flashlight and a stack of Amazing Stories. Steve grabbed a real one and went looking. What he found out there would blur the line between science fiction and reality forever.

That single night—one boy, one beam of light, and a sky full of mysteries—sparked a lifelong fascination with the unknown. It pushed Steve from wide-eyed fandom into decades of investigation, research, and encounters that would shape his understanding of what might be out there.

Today on The Grave Talks, we travel back to the 1960s to relive the moment a young sci-fi dreamer stepped into the world of real-life UFOs—and discovered that sometimes, the truth is stranger than fiction. This is Part Two of our conversation.
