The Apalachicola National Forest is the largest U.S. National Forest in the state of Florida. It is the only national forest located in the panhandle of Florida.
The Apalachicola National Forest was the setting of an episode (season 5, episode 4) of the fictional television series The X-Files. In the episode, FBI agents investigating paranormal phenomena confronted camoflauged, deadly creatures who had supposedly been members of Ponce de Leon's expedition to find the Fountain of Youth (and, evidently having drank its waters, lived on for several centuries as quasi-human predators). The episode was not filmed in the Apalachicola National Forest.
