Camp Hero was once a heavily fortified military installation at the eastern tip of Long Island. Built up during World War II and later transformed into a Cold War air-defense site, it eventually became famous for something far stranger: conspiracy theories about mind control, time travel, secret experiments, and underground government projects. The site is now part of Camp Hero State Park, where its former military structures and enormous radar installation remain.
But how did a real military base become the center of the Montauk Project conspiracy? What actually happened there, and how did those stories help inspire the original concept for Stranger Things? We trace Camp Hero from its military origins through the Cold War and into the bizarre conspiracy culture that made Montauk famous around the world. The infamous Montauk Project book was published in 1992 and presented extraordinary claims about experiments in time and other phenomena.
