At the end of the 19th century, in 1898, an interesting event took place in Bangor, Maine, USA. The owner of a town's municipality decided to change the city's lights from gas lamps to electric lamps. It was a very modern step at that time and people were excitedly waiting for this innovation.

However, the municipality decided to conduct a trial before changing its account. For the trial, several electric lights are turned off on one of the city's main streets. People flocked to see these new lamps. But something strange happened. Everyone who passes under the lamps mysteriously disappears, like a shadow, as if they are gone.

This incident quickly became a topic of discussion among the people of Bangor. Many people gathered to witness this event. However, the shadow incident did not happen. He then decided to reinstall the mayor's gas lamps.
