Ripley’s Believe It or Not! announced Monday it is offering $10,000 for any information about the location and whereabouts of the now missing Utah monolith.

What’s going on?

The entertainment show said the unusual structure’s recent disappearance is full of mystery and intrigue.

  • “In a year full of chaos, the sudden appearance and disappearance of the monolith has proved quite a distraction amidst the 2020 news cycle. Naturally, as curators of the odd, unusual and unknown, we’re on the hunt for the missing extraterrestrial artwork. Who placed this shining beacon in the Utah desert? Who took it away? Where is it now?”

Ripley’s said it will pay $10,000 for the first person who comes forward as the legal owner of the monolith, or whoever provides accurate information about its location.

The reward expires on Dec. 31 at 11:59 p.m.

Is it in Romania?
