I present below the article as I found it and Corrales wrote it that I have had tucked away in my own files for a few years. Be it UFOs or the legendary Chupacabra, Puerto Rico seems to figure prominently in phenomena that draws us back again and again. Here is the story of the aptly named "Hell Mountain."
Much has been written about the significant developments which have taken place in Puerto Rico over recent years, attracting the attention of UFO researchers from the four corners of the earth including an episode of FOX TV's "The X Files" series and assorted European and Japanese documentaries. While the bulk of this study has been centered around the alleged subterranean/ submarine base at Laguna Cartagena on the island's southwestern corner, another section of the island continues to demand the attention of every researcher: the Caribbean National Rainforest, better known by the name of one of its most prominent mountain peak, El Yunque.
El Yunque certainly fits Coleridge's description of Xanadu," a savage place, holy and enchanted: the cloud-enshrouded peak can easily be seen from as far away as the city of San Juan, and closer inspection reveals an ocean of unspoiled green as lush as that of any jungle. El Yunque was revered by the ancient Taino indians as the dwelling place of one of their deities, and there is proof that the Mayas traveled as far as Puerto Rico to venerate this spectacular place. Similarly, thousands of tourists from around the world visit this truly unique landmark However, El Yunque has a dark side which involves human disappearances. An undetermined number of hapless visitors have vanished since Taino days without any satisfactory explanation of their disappearance having ever been made. Many of these have been linked in recent times to the inordinate amount of UFO activity that takes place on the island. The only confirmation we can possibly have that nonhuman forces are involved in these happenings comes from the likeliest source: the ones that got away.
In 1974, in the wake of a dramatic UFO flap which included cattle mutilations, strange creatures and Marian apparitions, an hour-long documentary aired on Puerto Rican television recounting highlights of the incredible events. One of the documentary's segments involved the curious story of a a group of young people who had found themselves besieged by thoroughly bizarre creatures during a visit to the rainforest.
