The mysterious standing stones of Stonehenge in England were the site of a surprising disappearance in August 1971. At that time, Stonehenge was not yet protected from the public, and it was on this night that a group of "hippies" decided to set up tents in the center of the circle and spend the night.
They built a fire, lit several pots, and sat Smoking and signing. Their overnight stay was abruptly interrupted at around 2am due to a severe thunderstorm that quickly hit the Salisbury plain. Bright lightning struck the area, striking trees and even standing stones.
Two witnesses, a farmer and a police officer, said that the stones of the ancient monument lit up with an eerie blue light, which was so bright that they had to close their eyes. They heard the screams of campers, and two witnesses rushed to the scene, expecting to find injured or even dead campers.
To their surprise, they found no one. Only a few smoldering tent pegs and the sunken remains of a campfire remained in the circle of stones. The hippies themselves disappeared without a trace.

Summary: The mysterious standing stones of Stonehenge in England was the site of an amazing disappearance in August, 1971. At this time Stonehenge was not yet protected from the public, and on this particular night, a group of “hippies” decided to pitch tents in the center of the circle and spend the night. They built a campfire, lit several joints of pot and sat around smoking and signing. Their campout was abruptly interrupted at about 2 a.m. by a severe thunder storm that quickly blew in over Salisbury Plain. Bright bolts of lightning crashed down on the area, striking area trees and even the standing stones themselves. Two witnesses, a farmer and a policeman, said that the stones of the ancient monument lit up with an eerie blue light that was so intense that they had to avert their eyes. They heard screams from the campers and the two witnesses rushed to the scene expecting to find injured – or even dead – campers. To their surprise, they found no one. All that remained within the circle of stones were several smoldering tent pegs and the drowned remains of a campfire. The hippies themselves were gone without a trace.
