My Mother, the Mantis · UFOS & PARANORMAL WITH PRESTON DENNETT

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Hello everyone. My name is Preston Dennett, and thank you
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: for joining me for a new episode of UFOs and
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: the Paranormal. Today, I'm going to do something a little
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: bit different. This is not a collection of humanoid accounts.
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: This is, in fact, one person's story. I call this
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: episode my Mother the Mantis, the True Extraterrestrial Contacts of Sondra.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: I'm not going to use her last name, she wants
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: to remain anonymous. Sandra reached out to me after finding
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: out about my research, seeing some of my stuff on YouTube,
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: and boy, does she have a story to share. I've
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: certainly interviewed a lot of people, and much of what
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: she describes is familiar to me. But some of her
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: story is absolutely unique, and it's truly fascinating. She's had
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: a lifetime of contact not only with Mantis type extraterrestrials,
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: but with grays as well, and also some really high
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: strangeness events with the paranormal and abilities. It's a truly
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: amazing story. I did present it in my book Humanoids
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: and High Strangeness, so I'm going to be doing a
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: little bit of a reading from that chapter. You might
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: look at it that way, but I think you'll find
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: this a particularly fascinating account because it is quite unusual
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: and quite lengthy and extensive as well, and the first
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: section I call strange from the start. As I'm sure
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: you know, contact almost always begins for contact these at
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: a very young age, anywhere from a few months old
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: all the way up to five, six or seven somewhere thereabout.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: With Sondra, it was quite early, and her first indications
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: of unusual events were some very very interesting psychic abilities
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: that she presented at a very very young age. Range
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: events surrounded Sondra almost from the day she was The
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: year was nineteen forty. Sandra was only a few weeks old.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Sandra's crib was next to her mother's bed so her
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: mother could keep a close eye on her, and one
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: morning Sondra's mother woke up to an incredible sight. Sandra
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: was levitating above her crib. Her mother immediately jumped up
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: and shouted, whoever is doing this, put her down now.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: At that point, Sondra promptly floated gently back down into
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: her crib. But this was an incident that Sandra's mother
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: kept secret almost until the day she died. It was
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: to be the first of many strange events that would
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: become a regular feature in Sondra's life. At this time,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Sandra's family resided in Long Beach, California. Her father was
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: a captain in the Navy and held other prominent jobs
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: within government, and as a result, his job would take
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: them all over the world. Now, one of Sandra's first
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: memories states back to when she was only nine months old.
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: This may sound incredible, but a lot of contactees have
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: very early memories and often report idetic memories. Now, Sondra
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: and her mother were riding on a public bus when
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: another passenger began to argue with Sondra's mother. Sondra became
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: angry and shouted at the other passenger, saying she's my
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: mother and she can do whatever she wants. This was
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: the first of many times that Sondra would amaze her
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: family with her early childhood recall, because she was able
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: to remember this as an adult really shocked her family.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: At age three, Sondra vividly remembered the birth of her
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: younger brother while her aunts were there to celebrate the birth,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: and Sondra was disappointed because she was no longer the
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: baby of the family. So a little miffed about this,
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Sondra decided to step outside. She looked up into the sky.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: This was a bright time sunny day and wished it
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: would snow. There were clouds, but to her shock, it
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: actually started snowing. Now, this is Long Beach Minu, southern California.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: It rarely snows there. She was absolutely amazed. She ran
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: back inside to share this miraculous event, but nobody cared.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: They were all busy with the new baby. So Sandra
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: stepped back outside and enjoyed the snow alone. And after
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: playing for a while, she became bored and decided to
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: test her ability to control the weather by calling forth
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: the wind. And she shouted out, I want wind, and
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: to her delight, she says, powerful gusts of wind swirled
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: around her. Now, had she actually called forth the snow
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: in the wind as an adult, Sondra's not completely sure. Nevertheless,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: it was an incident that left a very vivid impression
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: on her mind and future events. With what we would
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: call superhuman abilities, I certainly would make her wonder about
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: this in hindsight. Oh interesting is that I've certainly heard
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: of other contactees levitating. It's not that unusual. I did
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: a whole episode about it, so that really didn't surprise
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: me too much. But Sondra's description of being able to
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: control the weather, that is unusual, and I've only heard
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: that a couple of times. But I have to believe
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: it because this is something that turns up with a
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: lot of contact tee stories telling you we all have
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: these abilities. Some people just displayed them more often than others.
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: I think their abilities are woken up somehow. I sometimes
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: think it's partly due to contact. Partly Sometimes I think
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: these abilities actually are attractive to the extraterrestrials. They really
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: are drawn to people with strong psychic abilities. And it
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: didn't stop there. This was just the beginning, because Sondra
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: as soon to display even more amazing abilities. So I
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: call this next section mystical abilities, and man, oh man,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: the things she describes are just so amazing. Shortly after this,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: in nineteen forty three, Sandra's father moved the family to Norfolk, Virginia.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Three years later, in nineteen forty six, Sandra's sister was born. Sadly,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: she suffered from muscular dystrophy, but was otherwise healthy. Not
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: long after this, Sandra's father, who is now working as
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: an attache to a Navy admiral announced that they were
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: all going to go to Singtao, China, and actually lived
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: there in the former Swiss embassy building. Now, to six
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: year old Sandra, this was all part of a fantastic adventure,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: but she soon learned some harsh realities of what life
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: was like outside of the United States. While her residence
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: was nice, outside the embassy building things were a little different.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: There was a large brick wall surrounding the building. In
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: all the days, trash would be disposed of by their Alma,
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: who tossed it over the wall. Now, Sondra became curious
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: about life outside the building, so she peered over the
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: wall and, to her sadness, saw that there were children
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: starving waiting for the trash. They would actually pick through
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: the garbage looking for food, and more often than not,
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: equally hungry adults snatched the food scraps away from the
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: children and ate it themselves. So this was a real
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: wake up call for Sondra. Sondra's family also had another
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: scare when their ama secretly tried to broke her a
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: deal and actually sell Sondra as a servant or worse. Thankfully,
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: this did not happen, but It was a very powerful
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: reminder to all of them that they were in a
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: foreign country and had to guard their safety carefully. The
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: only opportunity Sondra had to leave the building was to
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: attend the international school in a convent where classes were
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: taught by nuns, and this also led to some interesting
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: situations because the nuns began to show a very unusual
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: and powerful interest in Sondra. At this point, Sandra wasn't
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: sure why, but she soon found out. Before long, these
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: nuns actually began to beg Sondra's mother to let her
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: join the convent. Sondra's mother said it was up to
• 8:26
  Speaker 1: her daughter. Sondra, however, had no interest in becoming a nun. Instead,
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: she had aspirations of becoming a doctor. But one day,
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: very soon after all of this, Sondra found out one
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: of the reasons why the nuns showed such a special
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: interest in her. The nuns would regularly place fresh cut
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: flowers throughout the convent, and of course they would always
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: wilt away fairly quickly. However, in Sondra's room, the fresh
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: cut flowers never seemed to wilt or droop. Instead, they
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: remained as fresh as the day they were cut, but
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: when Sondra was absent, these flowers would soon die, and,
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: as Sondra says, that surprised them all, and that was
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: one of the reasons they wanted me to join the convent.
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: That's part of it. I know how that sounds, but
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: I have other cases like that. Now, Yeah, that was
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: just part of it. Apparently, Sondra was also displaying other
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: mystical abilities that truly amazed the nuns. Forbidden from traveling outside,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: Sondra nevertheless longed to see the city, and she found
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: that if she lay down, relaxed, she could actually leave
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: her body, fly around and explore the city at her
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: leisure using what she now knows is astral projection. So
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: that was interesting. Another thing that the nuns were apparently
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: impressed by was Sondra displayed an incredible ability to care
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: for the other children. She seemed to know things well
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: beyond her years. Now, Sondra didn't talk about why, but
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: she did have a secret because it was during this
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: time that, she says, she began to hear of voice
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: in her head, a soothing female voice which would teach
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: her and show her all kinds of things. As Sondra says,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: she would tell me all about my body. I learned
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: a lot just by listening and looking at my body.
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: This voice kept telling me about my body. I could
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: almost see my body, the bones in my body. She
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: would show me and tell me what was in the
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: human body. So Sondra's interest in health and biology and
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: being a doctor was being fortified by this apparent spirit guide. Now,
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: at the time, Sondra didn't realize how unusual all these
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: experiences were. Instead, she just found it very fascinating. But
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: it was short lived because her time in China was
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: about to come to an end. After living there for
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: about a year, in the beginning of nineteen forty seven,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: they were told that they had to immediately vacate the premises.
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: They only had twenty four hours warning. Turned out, war
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: was brewing in the country and was no longer safe
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: for them to be there. How unusual is that, I mean,
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Sandra's just a tiny little thing, and she's already displaying
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: all these amazing abilities with healing and out of body
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: experiences and so much more. So they fled China and
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: ended up in Albuquerque, New Mexico. This is nineteen forty seven. Now,
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: as you may know, this is when the Roswell incident occurred.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: I think it's quite possible, and so does Sandra think
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: that her father may have had some participation in the
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: Roswell incident. She never was able to find out. But yeah,
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: it was the summer of nineteen forty seven, and this
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: is when she had a truly incredible encounter, full on
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: onboard encounter where she met Praying mantis ET's gray type
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: ets who apparently took her on board because they had
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: some very important messages for her, apparently to share with
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: all humanity. It's an incredible story and one of the
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: most unusual et contact stories I've ever heard. I call
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: this one my mother the mantis. So now they are
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: back in New Mexico in Albuquerque, the summer of nineteen
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: forty seven, This is the exact time of the Roswell
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: UFO incident. A really remarkable synchronicity there, considering that Sondra
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: was about to have the most amazing encounter. Sondra had
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: just turned eight years old. She found herself once again
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: having to adjust to a new home, a new neighborhood,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: a new school. But because Sondra had done so well
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: in China and impressed the nuns with her extensive knowledge,
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: her parents had her academically tested. Teacher said she could
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: skip two grades if her parents wanted. Her parents said no,
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: so she instead just skipped the second grade and put
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: her in third. Now their home at this time was
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: located in a fairly remote location outside of Albuquerque. Luckily,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: Sandra had a new friend at a nearby Navajo reservation
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: only about one mile down the road, and one morning,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: after getting permission from her mother, Sandra grabbed her bicycle
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: and began the one mile trip to visit her friend.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: Sandra had made this trip several times before, and today
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: seemed no different. As usual. The highway was pretty much
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: devoid of traffic, so she just pedled her bike along
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: the highway. Then, as Sandra says, all of a sudden,
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: it felt like there was a cloud over me. It
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: got dark, So I stopped my bike and I looked
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: up and there was a gray something was gray. It
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: was round, like a sphere, so she could see this
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: metallic object. It was silent and in a matter of
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: seconds it landed on the highway in front of her.
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: Was big enough to reach from one side of the
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: road to the other, actually overlapping onto the shoulders Sandra says,
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: I knew what metal was, and it was gray, and
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: it landed right in front of me. It was not small,
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: but it wasn't that big either. I looked over and
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: there was a door. So Sondra, having been on a
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: navy ship, knew what craft looked like. She knew that
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: this was some kind of a craft, and she looked
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: at it in absolute amazement. She could see the metal
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: glinting in the sunlight. It was obvious to her that
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: this was not normal. She peered into the open doorway
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: and slowly, cautiously crept forward. After just a few short moments,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: she saw a tall figure appear in the doorway. As
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: Sandra says, she looked like a praying mantis. I saw
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: her face, and I saw her hands. She had long fingers,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: She was very skinny. She looked like a prying mantis.
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: She was very tall. Sandra was absolutely startled by the
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: being's strange appearance, and yet at the same time, she
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: felt no fear. She walked forward and this mantis being
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: immediately began to speak telepathically to her in a soothing
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: female voice, and the mantis told her come in. Sondra
• 15:27
  Speaker 1: hesitated for just a moment, but the mantis seemed very friendly,
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: welcoming and nurturing, and she repeated, please come in, don't worry.
• 15:36
  Speaker 1: Everything is fine. I'm your mother, So everything is fine.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: Don't be afraid. I'm your mother. So that, as you
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: can imagine. Fascinated Sondra and feeling no fear, she walked
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: up to the mantis, who took her by the hand
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: and led her inside this craft, says Sondra, So there
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: I was. I walked in. When I got in there,
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: it seemed bigger than it did on the outside. She
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: walked me around and there were all these other little ones.
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: They gathered around me. They let me walk around the ship.
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: So I was walking around and then I realized they
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: weren't kids. They were these gray creatures. There were about
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: six of them. I was fully accepted, and I accepted
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: all of them. It was nice, they were very nice.
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: I was just fascinated by what I had walked into.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: To me, this was all an adventure. So Sandra thought
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: these were little kids at first, but realized, you know,
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: these are not quite normal little kids. In hindsight, she
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: realized that they were what we would call grays, and
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: she was delighted by them. They were very playful, very curious.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: They clustered around her, making soft, high pitched chirping noises,
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: and as Sandra says, they followed me everywhere. They were
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: everywhere with me. They were just showing me that they
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: were friendly. They wanted to touch me. I had blonde hair,
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: and they wanted to touch my hair and that sort
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: of thing. They loved my blonde hair, and I was like, okay,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: because I had gotten used to that in China. In China,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: everybody was wanting to touch my hair, so it was
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: not a problem. So Sondra, absolutely amazed, roam through the
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: ship in a state of complete awe. She said. The
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: inside was very bright, very clean, and sparse. There were
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: gray metal walls, said. The grays acted like little children
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: while the mantis mother led her gently through the craft.
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: Says Sondra, she looked like an ant, but a different
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: size of an ant, A prying mantis. I mean, seriously,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: a creature, an insect that was talking to me. That
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: was something else. I thought, oh my, that is strange,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: but it was all very pleasant to me. It did
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: not feel like anything to be afraid of. I was
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: so amazed. I really did like that. I had no
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: problems with them. They were all friendly. Now, Sondra had
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: only been on board this craft for only a minute
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: or two when something caught her interest. As Sondra explains,
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: I saw a porthole, just like I had seen on
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: the ship from China. So I said, let me look
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: through the porthole. And what did I see? I saw
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: Earth and I saw the Moon. It was in between
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: the Moon and the Earth, and I was thinking, wow,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: this is fantastic. And the Moon looked pretty big, like
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: we were closer to the Moon than the Earth. And
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: I thought, oh god, this is interesting. I looked and
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: I thought where am I. I was so amazed to
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: be out in space. I enjoyed the ride. I was
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: looking at the stars and it was just amazing. It
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: was just fascinating looking at the Earth from so far away.
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: I was thinking, wow, this is great. So Sondra was
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: utterly captivated by this amazing view. She had felt no
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: movement or inertia, so to find herself suddenly so far
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: away from Earth so quickly was a huge surprise, says Sondra.
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: We were out in space, which was fascinating to me.
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: I just can't tell you. It was like wow, then
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: I kept walking around and finally, kind of like in
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: the center of the ship, everyone was gathered around. It
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: looked like a box, like a TV. Now I didn't
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: know what a TV was at the time, but that's
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: what it looked like. I don't know how to describe this,
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: but it was like a hologram. So as Sondra focused
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: in on this, she saw movement and colors. She first
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: saw darkness and clouds, and then suddenly it all became clear.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: She couldn't believe what she was looking at. She saw
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: people in uniforms marching, She saw tanks, she saw guns
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: and explosions. These were all images of war, quite small,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: about a foot wide, but very colorful, vivid, and totally lifelike.
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: As Sandra says, I thought, wow, what is this all about?
• 20:11
  Speaker 1: And I heard from her, my mother, the praying mantis,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: what you are seeing are pictures of future wars. You
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: need to let people know this is what is going
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: to happen if mankind doesn't do something, this is going
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: to be the future. So as you can imagine, once again,
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: Sandra found herself absolutely astonished. Says Sondra. I don't know
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: exactly what she said, because I was so fascinated with everything.
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: But she was trying to tell me that we had
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: to watch out otherwise there would be many, many wars,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: That's all she would say. And I thought, while I'm
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: out in the desert, how am I going to tell
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: anybody what am I supposed to do with this? So
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: she was struggling with all of that. But when, as
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: Sondra says, the next thing I knew, I was in
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: my bathroom, now rewinding just a little bit. Unknown to Sondra,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: her family became alarmed when Sondra failed to show up
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: at her friend's house on the Navajo reservation, so they
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: immediately began a search. They could not find her, and
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: in fact, Sondra was missing for about seven hours. They
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: simply could not find her anywhere. They went up and
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: down the highway several times. Finally decided to check it again,
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: and there they found Sondra sitting next to her bike
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: alongside the highway. She was in a daze. She did
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: not seem to be aware of her surroundings. They thought
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: at first that perhaps she had crashed, but that made
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: no sense because an earlier search had failed to locate her.
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: And furthermore, Sondra didn't have a scratch on her, nor
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: did the bike itself show any signs of damage. Sondra
• 21:59
  Speaker 1: doesn't remember this. Her first conscious memory after seeing these
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: holographic images of war on board the craft and being
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: warned about them, was waking up in the bathroom of
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: her home. So she exited the bathroom and was immediately
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: confronted by her mother, who wanted to know what happened
• 22:16
  Speaker 1: now that Sondra was lucid. She wanted to know had
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: anyone hurt her? What did Sondra remember? Did she need
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: to go to the doctor, But Sondra insisted that she
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: was fine. She said she didn't remember anything because even
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: at that age, she knew she would not have been believed.
• 22:35
  Speaker 1: As Sondra says, that was the thing. I didn't think
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: they would believe me. They would not have believed me.
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: Isn't that interesting Sondra's taken on board meets this mantis
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: et who introduces herself as her mother may sound strange,
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: but I've heard that in other et contact stories. Doesn't
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: surprise me that Sondra kept quiet about it. Even at
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: that age. She knew how unusual this experience was and
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: that there probably wasn't much use in trying to tell people,
• 23:07
  Speaker 1: though she eventually did try. She told people at school,
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: was not believed, learned again the hard way to keep quiet,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: but her psychic abilities continued to manifest. She had some
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: very powerful auto body experiences where she could see her
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: whole neighborhood all over the place. She asked her grandmother
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: if she had had experiences, and her grandmother actually admitted
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: that yes, as a young girl, she also had encounters.
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: This is an important detail. I go more into this
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: in the book, but it's important because this is another
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: indication that contact is generational. Certainly does seem to be
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: true in Sondra's case. But Sondra grew up, she got married,
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: had kids, she went to college, she became a teacher,
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: got a degree in psychology. Actually, so she's quite accomplished.
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: And basically that was her last experience with the mantids. However,
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: it certainly was not her last experience with the Grays.
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: She went in many years without any encounters that she's
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: aware of, but then one day the Grays came back
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: into her life and again had some very interesting information
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: to share with her. Now, as an adult, Sondra had
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: left all of that behind. She thought that her experiences
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: were ET's were over, but turns out they weren't, and
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: for her, it began when one day her husband made
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: a startling admission. He told Sondra that shortly after they
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: got married, he woke up to see two quote creatures
• 24:53
  Speaker 1: standing at the foot of the bed. Equally startling was
• 24:56
  Speaker 1: the fact that Sondra appeared to be talking to them.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: Now frightened, he told the creatures to leave and don't
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: come back. Oddly, Sondra has no memory of this visit,
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: as she says, I do not remember anything. I don't
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: remember that at all. But around nineteen ninety it happened again,
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: and this time Sondra did remember. Says Sondra, I woke
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: up and they were on the side of the bed.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: They came to me and were talking to me. I
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: can't remember what they were talking to me about, but
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: she certainly remembers what they looked like. She describes them
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: as short, little grays, very friendly and not at all threatening.
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: Sondra has no memory of being taken on board, but again,
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: neither could she remember what the ets were telling her.
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: At this time, Sondra was living in Virginia Beach in Virginia,
• 25:51
  Speaker 1: and before long the Grays started visiting her fairly regularly.
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: Now she never saw them arrive, but she would be
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: wakened in her room by this noise, and there they
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: would be. It seemed like they were often bumbling around
• 26:06
  Speaker 1: the room, chirping and knocking into things, being kind of playful,
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: and on a few occasions they seemed to be producing,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: she says, some kind of music. They were always interested
• 26:18
  Speaker 1: in talking to Sondra, but when morning came, Sondra could
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: never quite remember what they had been talking about. She
• 26:26
  Speaker 1: almost never saw them arrive or leave, but sometimes they
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: would stay for so long that Sondra had to actually
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: tell them to go away and that she needed to
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: get her sleep. But as Sondra says, they made a
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: lot of noise and I would have to say, please stop,
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: knock it off. No noise, no noise. Sondra was particularly
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: concerned about her husband because she had tried telling him
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: about what was happening in her experiences during childhood, but
• 26:55
  Speaker 1: it was clear that the subject made him uncomfortable and
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: that he did not want to talk about it. But
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: still the Grays kept coming. As Sondra says, they were
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: little gray creatures. They seemed to be really happy with me.
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: They always woke me up, like two, three or four
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: of them, like let's have a party. And I would
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: wake up and say, would you please not make so
• 27:18
  Speaker 1: much noise. I have to go to work. You have
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: to stop making so much noise. But they were happy
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: to be in my house. It was almost like they
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: were dancing, and there was some music that came along
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: with it. That's what woke me up, the music, music
• 27:33
  Speaker 1: and talking. So sometimes the grays would wake her up
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: and Sondra would just lay in bed and ignore them
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: and wait for them to go away. It became such
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: a regular thing that it was a normal feature of
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: her life and she just didn't pay too much attention
• 27:48
  Speaker 1: to it. Now. A few times, she did become curious
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: if other people in the world were having similar experiences,
• 27:55
  Speaker 1: so she decided to pick up a few books on
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: the subject, but she quickly put them down because she
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: was disappointed to hear strange and lurid stories of abductions
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: and examinations and fear filled encounters, which wasn't her experience
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: at all. She wondered if the cases she was reading
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: about were even true, so she no longer bothered to
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: even read them. He did notice some patterns. The visitations
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: would come in waves, sometimes frequently, though sometimes it would
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: be quiet for several months, but they always seemed to return.
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: On a few rare occasions, she did see them arrive.
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: She would wake up to see the room filling with light,
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: and then the grays would be there. Also equally rare
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: was seeing them leave, but it did happen. When they left,
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: they would float up through the closed window and into
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: a bright light, which would quickly wink out. One time
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: they showed up and she did actually remember what they
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: told her, says Sondra. They said, I am going to
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: live a long life. That's what they basically told me,
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: and I thought, well, that's nice. It's like they're there
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: to take care of me for some reason. Of course,
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: this turned out to be true. Sondra has lived a
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: very long life and quite healthy too. Other strange things
• 29:19
  Speaker 1: happened Sondra was working. She had to commute about forty
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: five minutes to her place of employment, and sometimes, inexplicably,
• 29:29
  Speaker 1: she'd find herself arriving thirty minutes early. It happened enough
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: times that she knew it wasn't her imagination, and yet
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: it was weird because she never saw anything strange during
• 29:39
  Speaker 1: these trips. She couldn't explain how it was happening. Suddenly
• 29:43
  Speaker 1: she just find herself pulling into the parking lot at work.
• 29:47
  Speaker 1: As Sondra says, that happened quite a few times. I
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: was taken care of very interesting stuff. Sandra's not only
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: having sometimes missing time, but apparently added time. Other contactees
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: have described that to me, arriving at their locations far
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: earlier than they should have. So there's some really interesting
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: details to some of these contact stories that you don't
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: often hear now. Sandra's husband wasn't super receptive to the
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: fact that she was having contact, even though he himself
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: had seen the Grays, so it was kind of a
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: part of her life that she just kept mostly quiet about.
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: But this is definitely a pattern we'd see with a
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: lot of contactees. They live as Jacob says, David Jacob's
• 30:36
  Speaker 1: secret lives or two separate lives. I hear this sort
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: of thing all the time. Finally, she did summon up
• 30:44
  Speaker 1: the courage to ask her sons. She has three sons,
• 30:47
  Speaker 1: if any of them had encounters. None of them did.
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: All of them were a bit surprised to hear their
• 30:54
  Speaker 1: mother's accounts of having encounters, but were very supportive. Sandra
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: never did get chance to ask her siblings. She had
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: a sister and brother, but she never was able to
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: ask them. They passed away before she had a chance
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: to ask them, and that's when she finally decided she
• 31:13
  Speaker 1: better ask her children. Unfortunately, they did not have anything
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: to add, so she was kind of left alone with this.
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: Possibly they do have encounters but don't remember, but there's
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: no real indication of that at any rate. Sondra spent
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: most of her life without having a whole lot of encounters.
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: Though many years later, as often happens, the Grays returned again.
• 31:40
  Speaker 1: This time they had a message and a warning, and
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: that's what I call this segment, a message and a warning.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: So time marched on, and while the visitations continued, they
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: slowly slowed down and eventually seemed to completely stop. Sondra
• 31:54
  Speaker 1: would occasionally dream about the ets, but she almost never visited,
• 32:00
  Speaker 1: and if she was, she didn't remember it, but every
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: now and then it would happen. One of the last
• 32:06
  Speaker 1: occasions occurred around twenty eighteen, and it was apparently an
• 32:10
  Speaker 1: important visit because as Sandra says, I was awakened with
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: two of them sitting by me, wanting to chat or
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: take care of me someway, and then I finally got
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: the message, you need to go to the mountains, and
• 32:25
  Speaker 1: I got this feeling that there was a war coming on.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: As a result of this, Sandra and her husband eventually
• 32:32
  Speaker 1: sold their house in Virginia Beach and moved up into
• 32:35
  Speaker 1: the mountains. And it wasn't long after that that the
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty pandemic hit, and then the political unrest war
• 32:43
  Speaker 1: in Europe, something which still concerns Sondra, and as recently
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: as twenty twenty two, she heard some strange noises at night,
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: but was unable to identify them. She can't conclusively say
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: that it's the ets, but she knows that there's still there.
• 33:00
  Speaker 1: She has the sense that they are still watching over
• 33:03
  Speaker 1: and protecting her. But she's glad she got that message.
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: She's now safe in her mountain home in case anything
• 33:10
  Speaker 1: should happen. I think you'll agree Sondra's story is pretty interesting,
• 33:16
  Speaker 1: very compelling. She has witnesses to support her case, and
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: the fact that she went missing as a young child
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: and nobody could find her that's quite significant. Where was she, Well,
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: she was on board a craft. Her husband also saw
• 33:31
  Speaker 1: the grays. So my point is this is not simply
• 33:35
  Speaker 1: one person's eyewitness anecdotal testimony. She has corroborating witnesses that
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: I think is important because it always adds a level
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: of credibility to the case. Sondra is certainly not seeking fame.
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: She insisted upon anonymity. She had to be convinced to
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: be interviewed, as many contactees do. They're very wary of
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: being believed, ridiculed, being gas lit because they had an
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: experience that they don't fully understand. But I think a
• 34:09
  Speaker 1: lot of people are having these experiences. I think it's
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: important we all know about this because I think we
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: now have enough people coming forward to say for sure
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: that these events are happening. I like Sandra's story because,
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: like most of the people I interview, she doesn't feel
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: like the etis are here to hurt or take over,
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: or cause fear or anything like this. Again, she did
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: try to read on some other people's accounts and just
• 34:42
  Speaker 1: finally put the books down because they were very lurid,
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: very fear based, and that just wasn't what she was experiencing.
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: So I really want to thank Sandra for coming forward.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: I know it takes a lot of courage. Her story
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: is an important one, and certainly I think thanks to
• 35:00
  Speaker 1: our knowledge of what's going on here with extraterrestrial contact.
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: So that's it for today. If you want to learn
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: more about Sondra's story, please do check out my book
• 35:10
  Speaker 1: Humanoids and High Strangeness twenty True UFO Encounters. It's got
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: much more information than I was able to present here,
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: and a lot of other really interesting contact stories, complete
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: with all the high strangeness that is involved with UFO contact.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: So yeah, thanks again, guys. Truly appreciate you guys tuning
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: in and until next time, keep asking those hard questions,
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: keep searching for the answers, and most important of all,
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: keep having fun. I think it's why we're here. Bye
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: for now, see you next Friday.
