1969: ALIEN ABDUCTION: Stardate: 17th Century

-or- The Four Ambassadors of the Sylphs “The famous Kabbalist Zedequias, in the reign of your Pepin, took it into his head to convince the world that the Elements are inhabited by those peoples whose natures I have just described to you. The expedient of which he bethought himself was to advise the Sylphs to show themselves in the Air to everybody:  They did so sumptuously. These beings were seen in the Air in human form, sometimes in battle array marching in good order, halting under arms, or encamped beneath magnificent tents. Sometimes on wonderfully constructed aerial ships [“flying saucers” -B:.B:.], whose flying squadrons roved at the will of the Zephyrs. “What happened? Do you suppose that ignorant age would so much as reason as to the […] Read More

1998: Abduction To The Far Reaches Of The Mind

The UFO phenomena, like any covert operation builds instant distrust by it’s very nature of secrecy and hidden agendas. A new phenomena which I have called “Master / Slave” has come to the fore. An abductee’s mind has been so messed up by ongoing abductions, mind scans, mis- information from the aliens that they look inside to the spiritual sense of the abduction. Such phrases as, “you are special”, or “chosen”, or “you are saving the human race from certain cataclysm”, no matter, builds a “mission quest” into the psyche. This I feel stops the abductee going insane. (Often the search for deeper meaning and understanding in any experience either good or bad triggers the beginning of the healing process). You want to understand […] Read More

1998: The Threat: Alien Agenda

Date: Sun, 22 Mar 1998 22:35:41 -0800 From: Jon Roland Most persons have heard about the reports of alien abductions, with varying degrees of credence and willingness to think about something that, if true, is of profound importance to everything we hold important. One of the most important researchers in this field is Dr. David Jacobs, Professor of History at Temple University. He has made a serious scientific effort to separate out the abduction reports that are credible, that come from otherwise normal, credible persons, especially those whose abductions are corroborated by third party witnesses and physical evidence. Some of these remember the incidents without the aid of hypnosis. Others are able to recall the incidents with the aid of hypnosis. Dr. Jacobs has […] Read More

1999: Subject: Abduction

The following was taken from the UFO Sky Searchers International list. This letter is being sent anonymously for a very good reason. I don’t want my name attached to this subject in any way, shape or form. I have worked very hard to get three university degrees and gain my professional status. I could not jeopardize my credibility. I never believed in UFOs nor aliens. I thought it was all in people’s minds as were the “faeries” and leprechauns of old European folklore. My sister then began complaining about strange dreams, and later claimed to have seen a UFO which followed her home from work late one night. She later received strange telephone calls with the noise of “pots and pans” banging in the […] Read More

1988: Abductions: The Boundary Deficit Hypothesis

1988 by Martin Kottmeyer As claims about the reality of alien abductions multiply, the assertion is increasingly heard that psychology offers little or no insight into how such experiences could occur if they are unreal. Abductees are normal people. Tests prove it. How, then, could normal people make such impossible claims as those found in abduction narratives and not be right? If this assertion is true, the theatre version of the UFO phenomenon is in jeopardy. To the extent that the UFO phenomenon is a genre of theatre and an expression of the human imagination, it must be amenable to psychological study. Clearly this is a paradox that needs to be addressed. Drama is quintessentially involved with conflict, the exercise of power. Aliens and their […] Read More

1999: RE: The Evidence for Alien Abduction

Recently I posted an extract from John Rimmer‘s _The Evidence for Alien Abduction_ which suggested that there may be gender differences in the way that males and females experience, interpret or report abduction experiences. What bothers me about the whole abduction phenomenon is that it seems absolutely random – at the moment. Now if I were an alien, who would I abduct? That would depend on the purpose of said abduction, of course. *If the purpose was mainly medical or scientific, as in ‘studying that funny species inhabiting planet Earth’ or trying to cross-breed both species, I would abduct people who live alone, in outlying areas. That would eliminate the risk of my alien craft (which you humans call UFOs 🙂 being spotted, and […] Read More

1997: Betty Hill Disavows Modern Abduction Research

BETTY HILL and her husband Barney were apparently abducted by the occupants of a UFO in September 1961. The event became the template for the ever more elaborate abduction claims that we hear today. But they don’t impress Betty Hill, as PETER BROOKESMITH discovered when he visited her at home in New Hampshire. I’d heard about Betty’s acerbic opinions of the modern abduction phenomenon on the ufological grapevine. Naturally I wondered how far and in what ways we might agree. We talked a lot about cats (about 15 condescend to frequent her house) and politics and her own abduction, but her less than dewy-eyed approach to most of today’s abduction claims will probably surprise people more. Those who promote the abduction phenomenon or, by […] Read More

1997: UFO Contacts and Abductions

by Ing. Gustavo Nelen 50 years have gone by since Kenneth Arnold saw “flying saucers” from his private plane over Washington state. In the intervening years, we hardly know anything else about the matter. Nonetheless, the UFO phenomenon has in some way managed to become more extensive, invading fields such as the psychic and the religious, aside from such rumors as the Roswell crash or the ever-present Hangar 18, which are related to the “great UFO cover-up” allegedly perpetrated by the U.S intelligence community. From George Adamski onward, a wave of rumors involving contact by apparently extraterrestrial beings sweeps across the country. They were tall and blonde, hailing from the planet Venus, and came in peace, acting as our elder brothers. Between 1968 and […] Read More

1993: Clinical Discrepancies between expected and observed data in patients reporting UFO Abductions: Implications for Treatment

RIMA E. LAIBOW, M.D. Child and Adult Psychiatry Cerridwen 13 Summit Terrace Dobbs’ Ferry, NY 10522 (914)693-3081 Clinical Discrepancies between expected and observed data in patients reporting UFO Abductions: Implications for Treatment ABSTRACT: IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THIS PAPER MAKES NO ATTEMPT TO ASSIGN OR WITHHOLD EXTERNAL VALIDITY RELATIVE TO UFO ABDUCTION SCENARIOS. Patients who believe themselves to be UFO abductees are a heterogeneous group widely dispersed along demographic and cultural lines. Careful examination of these patients and their abduction reports presents four areas of significant discrepancy between expected and observed data. Implications for the treatment of patients presenting UFO abduction scenarios are discussed. INTRODUCTION If a patient were to confide to a therapist that he had been abducted by aliens who took […] Read More

1996: Demon Possession and Alien Abduction: Similarities of an Enigma

The following excerpt is from a work in progress, Demon Possession and Alien Abduction: Similarities of an Enigma, by R.G. Teets, copyright 1996, Headline Books, Inc. (TerraAlta@aol.com) I cannot unequivocally state that so-called demons or extraterrestrials are, in fact, objectively real. But as I continue to research subjects seemingly connected with the UFO phenomenon, it is apparent from a great number of percipients I’ve interviewed (and collateral research, as well) that the net effects of many, but certainly not all, of these interactions, be they with non-human intelligence or with other states of mind (i.e. consciousness and all of its various aberrations) appear to demonstrate many similarities between the UFO abduction experience and demonic/spirit possession. This is not to eliminate other possibilities (for a […] Read More

1993: Fire In The Sky – The Taking Of Travis Walton

The following appeared in the March/April [1993] issue of The Georgia Skeptic, the newsletter of the Georgia Skeptics: by Anson Kennedy On November 5, 1975, a 22 year old logger by the name of Travis Walton was allegedly abducted by a UFO near Snowflake, Arizona. Witnessed by six companions, his experience is possibly the most unique and controversial alien abduction tale in the short history of the phenomenon. Now, some seventeen years later, Paramount Pictures has brought this incredible story to the silver screen. On March 12, 1993, Fire in the Sky> opened in theaters across the country. Scripted by Tracy Torme’, who also wrote last year’s CBS miniseries on alien abductions, Intruders, the movie is loosely based on Walton’s book, aptly named The […] Read More

Alec Newald One Monday in mid-February 1989, Alec Newald set off on what should have been a three-hour drive from Rotorua to Auckland, in New Zealand. He arrived in Auckland feeling tired and confused, but was even more confused to learn that Monday was now Thursday ten days later and that he had no idea of what had happened in the meantime! When Alec did retrieve his memories of those missing ten days, he realized his life had changed forever. Early on in that fateful trip, while driving through a foggy mountain pass, Alec was whisked from the road by beings from an extraterrestrial civilization. What he learned and experienced during his stay with these friendly beings has profound implications for all of us […] Read More

1998: Abduction terminals in the military?

My story started at age five in 1951 when I saw a spaceship when we were living in West Virginia. I told my parents, aunts, uncles and cousins. I don’t have to tell you what their reactions were. When I came home from Vietnam in Oct., 1967, I was twenty one years old and in the army. I was stationed at Fort Ord, California in what was called C.D.E.C. OR COMBAT  DEVELOPMENTS EXPERIMENTAL COMMAND. We would be bussed eighty miles out into the Mojave Desert to “HUNTER LIGGETT MILITARY RESERVATION CA.” which was where we did our so called experiments. One night while on guard duty around October 24, 1967, I was with three other soldiers who I thought were my friends. I noticed […] Read More

1994: Alien Abductions Through The Ages

by Dr. Gregory L. Little 1994 The abduction stories form a continuum with old legends and beliefs …They do contain a message …given to us by the hidden parts of our being. — John Rimmer – (The Evidence for Alien Abductions – 1984) Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore – While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. — Edgar Allan Poe – (The Raven) “We stepped into the fringe of reality,” Karla Turner replied to a questioner — after relating her incredible story to an immense group at the 1992 Ozark UFO Conference. “Our book comes from the […] Read More
