Virginia Beach

What the Show Claims

  • Ancient Aliens references Virginia Beach as the location associated with Edgar Cayce, a modern-day prophet from Kentucky who claimed to receive visions and encounters with otherworldly beings while in trance states.

What Archaeology Says

Virginia Beach is the largest city in Virginia and served as the home base for Edgar Cayce's Association for Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.) founded in 1931. The city is primarily known for its modern history and beach resort status rather than archaeological significance.
