Three Very Close Encounters · UFOS & PARANORMAL WITH PRESTON DENNETT

Speaker 1: Hello everyone, my name is Preston Dennett and welcome to
0:04
Speaker 1: another episode of UFOs and the Paranormal. Today's episode is
0:07
Speaker 1: called Three Very Close Encounters. Sightings are very interesting, but
0:14
Speaker 1: even more interesting to me are cases in which UFOs
0:17
Speaker 1: approach very closely. And that's what I'd like to talk
0:21
Speaker 1: about today. I have three cases I think you probably
0:24
Speaker 1: haven't heard before and each of them involve very close encounters.
0:31
Speaker 1: The first involves a group of young teenagers who were
0:37
Speaker 1: approached by a UFO and struck by a beam of light,
0:40
Speaker 1: and one of them was very nearly abducted. The second
0:44
Speaker 1: case involves four young adults who came upon a landed
0:49
Speaker 1: UFO and humanoids. And the third case involves two teenage
0:54
Speaker 1: girls and one of their mothers who were actually chased
0:58
Speaker 1: by a UFO and experienced missing time. Each of these
1:02
Speaker 1: cases has something unique, I think, to contribute to our
1:06
Speaker 1: understanding of the UFO phenomena, and that's why I wanted
1:10
Speaker 1: to do this video. So let's just get started. And
1:13
Speaker 1: the first case I call Abducted by Aliens, Almost. This
1:19
Speaker 1: case took place in 1989 in the small rural town
1:26
Speaker 1: of Mount Olive, Louisiana. The main witness is Charmaine Scott
1:34
Speaker 1: and also her sister and friend. So how this happened
1:41
Speaker 1: was one summer evening in 1989, Charmaine, her sister, and
1:48
Speaker 1: their friend Roy were walking home along with their little dog, Sheila.
1:54
Speaker 1: They had just approached Charmaine's house when something very strange happened.
2:00
Speaker 1: A UFO came swooping down right over their heads. It
2:05
Speaker 1: was a bright circular object about 30 feet in diameter.
2:10
Speaker 1: It swooped down, zigzagged a few times, and then hovered
2:14
Speaker 1: about 20 feet directly above the three witnesses. Charmaine was
2:20
Speaker 1: about 11 years old at the time. and it completely
2:26
Speaker 1: stunned her. All three of the witnesses were actually quite frightened.
2:29
Speaker 1: As Charmaine says, it was this circular light, kind of big,
2:33
Speaker 1: maybe about the size of a doughboy pool that you
2:36
Speaker 1: stand up in and swim in. It was hovering over me,
2:39
Speaker 1: and it was making this buzzing noise. At this point,
2:43
Speaker 1: several things happened at once. All three witnesses stared upwards
2:50
Speaker 1: in amazement at this object. Their little dog, Sheila, took
2:53
Speaker 1: off running into Charmaine's house. At the same time, Charmaine's
2:57
Speaker 1: mother appeared at the kitchen window, looked up at the object,
3:01
Speaker 1: saw it hovering over her two daughters and Roy, and
3:06
Speaker 1: she began banging on the kitchen window for them to
3:09
Speaker 1: come inside. All three witnesses turned to run, and that's
3:14
Speaker 1: when this object sent down a powerful beam of light,
3:18
Speaker 1: and The other two managed to escape this beam of light,
3:22
Speaker 1: but Charmaine was struck full on and became instantly paralyzed.
3:29
Speaker 1: As she says, I was looking up. That's all I remember,
3:33
Speaker 1: looking up. And I couldn't hear. Like my mom, I
3:36
Speaker 1: could hear in the distance, but not loud, like she
3:38
Speaker 1: was muted. Just felt like nothing, like everything was gone.
3:43
Speaker 1: I don't know, it felt like everything was okay for
3:46
Speaker 1: that one moment, like Peace. I don't know how to
3:50
Speaker 1: describe it. It was just this definite feeling that everything
3:54
Speaker 1: was okay and beautiful. But I couldn't see anything. There
3:59
Speaker 1: was just this feeling. It was like I was stuck,
4:02
Speaker 1: looking up, like in a trance kind of thing. It
4:06
Speaker 1: was pleasant. It was bright, but it was pleasant. I
4:09
Speaker 1: didn't want to look down. It was a really dreamy-like state.
4:16
Speaker 1: So Charmaine... feels like she was actually paralyzed, but she
4:20
Speaker 1: didn't care. All her fear, which had been so strong before,
4:25
Speaker 1: was now completely gone, and she felt really good. And
4:30
Speaker 1: while she could hear her mother screaming and her sister
4:33
Speaker 1: and Roy screaming at her, she didn't care. All that
4:37
Speaker 1: really mattered was that one moment. And she just stood
4:43
Speaker 1: there completely entranced, And the world seemed very far away
4:48
Speaker 1: when suddenly Charmaine's sister reached into the beam of light,
4:53
Speaker 1: grabbed her arm, and pulled her out. And the instant
4:57
Speaker 1: she was out of the beam of light, Charmaine's fear
5:00
Speaker 1: returned instantly, and all three children ran quickly into the house, screaming.
5:08
Speaker 1: At this time, the beam of light retracted. This object
5:12
Speaker 1: moved over the house, over the woods in the backyard,
5:16
Speaker 1: and then darted upwards really quickly straight up into the
5:19
Speaker 1: sky and was gone. The three witnesses looked at each
5:23
Speaker 1: other in shock. They could hardly believe what had happened.
5:26
Speaker 1: It was obvious to all of them they had seen
5:29
Speaker 1: a UFO. Charmaine's mother wanted to talk about it, but
5:33
Speaker 1: the kids did not want to discuss it. They very
5:36
Speaker 1: nearly called the police, but in the end decided not to.
5:41
Speaker 1: It was just a very shocking event. And the next
5:45
Speaker 1: day they did find physical evidence. Looking out in their backyard,
5:50
Speaker 1: where this UFO had hovered before taking off straight up,
5:54
Speaker 1: a tree had been knocked down. So they think probably
5:58
Speaker 1: this UFO caused this tree to be knocked down. None
6:03
Speaker 1: of the children had any physical effects from this encounter,
6:07
Speaker 1: but the emotional effects were long-lasting. They talked about it
6:10
Speaker 1: for quite some time, and none of them ever forgot it.
6:15
Speaker 1: Charmaine felt like she was very nearly abducted, and I
6:19
Speaker 1: agree with her. I think it came that close, and
6:22
Speaker 1: if her sister hadn't pulled her out of this beam
6:24
Speaker 1: of light, she may have been taken on board. This
6:28
Speaker 1: is one of very few cases that I've investigated or
6:31
Speaker 1: even read about where someone was able to avert an
6:35
Speaker 1: abduction from happening. So yeah, it's a very interesting case,
6:40
Speaker 1: a very close-up encounter involving this beam of light. Another
6:45
Speaker 1: interesting detail is how this beam of light caused her
6:48
Speaker 1: fear to evaporate. This is something I've heard in a
6:51
Speaker 1: number of other cases. So these are very powerful beams
6:55
Speaker 1: of light. Yeah, an interesting case with some unique elements.
7:00
Speaker 1: Second case I want to talk about I call a
7:03
Speaker 1: UFO landing with humanoids. This took place in 1973 in
7:07
Speaker 1: San Dimas, California. There's a golf course in San Dimas,
7:16
Speaker 1: and this incident took place in the mountains just above
7:19
Speaker 1: the San Dimas golf course. It involves four witnesses, young
7:25
Speaker 1: adults age around 17 to 22. There was Gary and
7:32
Speaker 1: his three friends, Tom, Stan, and Suzanne. These are pseudonyms.
7:39
Speaker 1: They did not want their real names used. But what
7:43
Speaker 1: these young adults would often do is hike up into
7:47
Speaker 1: these mountains above the San Dimas golf course where there
7:51
Speaker 1: was this little valley which was not visible from below
7:56
Speaker 1: because it sort of dipped into the mountainside there and
7:59
Speaker 1: was this secret little place that they enjoyed hanging out.
8:03
Speaker 1: There was a long dirt road that switched back up
8:07
Speaker 1: this mountain. It was a difficult road and not easily accessible.
8:13
Speaker 1: but this is where they spent many hours just hanging
8:16
Speaker 1: out as gary says we've been up there many times
8:20
Speaker 1: it's a really tough road to get up to so
8:22
Speaker 1: we had a really hard time getting there but once
8:25
Speaker 1: you get up there it's a meadow that sits back
8:27
Speaker 1: underneath huge oak trees we'd always go up there and
8:31
Speaker 1: have a good time on this particular summer night in
8:36
Speaker 1: 1973 they went up to this particular spot and were
8:41
Speaker 1: shocked at what they found. As Gary says, we get
8:45
Speaker 1: up around the turn and we see a bunch of lights,
8:49
Speaker 1: probably three or four. They were huge and they were
8:53
Speaker 1: never there before. We pulled up to where we normally
8:56
Speaker 1: stopped and this is when they realized that there was
9:00
Speaker 1: something at the far end of the field and it
9:03
Speaker 1: was huge. It was much bigger than any normal vehicle,
9:08
Speaker 1: much bigger than a helicopter. Whatever it was, it was
9:12
Speaker 1: very large. The lights that were on it were so
9:16
Speaker 1: bright that they couldn't really discern a shape. But there
9:19
Speaker 1: was what appeared to be a scaffolding around the object,
9:23
Speaker 1: and they could see the silhouettes of three or four
9:27
Speaker 1: tall figures, human-looking figures, as far as they could tell.
9:33
Speaker 1: But this was clearly unusual, and instantly they could tell
9:38
Speaker 1: that there was mean this just couldn't be explained as
9:42
Speaker 1: any conventional object as gary says there was something not
9:48
Speaker 1: right about it there was no way something of that
9:51
Speaker 1: size could have ever gotten up there there's no way
9:55
Speaker 1: that thing just dropped in there and there were four
9:58
Speaker 1: figures walking along a rail I was actually having a
10:01
Speaker 1: hard time believing what I was seeing. This thing was
10:08
Speaker 1: so bright that they could only see silhouettes. They estimate
10:12
Speaker 1: it was about 250 feet away from them. And this
10:17
Speaker 1: object was large enough to extend across the whole field.
10:20
Speaker 1: And as Gary says, that was the thing that scared
10:24
Speaker 1: me the most. So they jumped out of their car
10:28
Speaker 1: and stood right next to it, watching this thing, trying
10:31
Speaker 1: to figure out what it could possibly be. And at first,
10:36
Speaker 1: whoever was in this object or around this object didn't
10:41
Speaker 1: seem to notice that they had an audience. And Gary
10:47
Speaker 1: and his friends were trying to figure out what these
10:50
Speaker 1: guys were doing. As Gary says, It was like they
10:53
Speaker 1: were doing normal maintenance or a routine thing. There was
10:57
Speaker 1: no hurrying, no panic in the whole situation. It's kind
11:01
Speaker 1: of weird. We stood there for a long time and
11:03
Speaker 1: watched it. We were checking things out. And then, all
11:08
Speaker 1: of a sudden, a figure started coming toward us. We
11:12
Speaker 1: could see him just walking right toward us. So Gary
11:17
Speaker 1: and his friends were a tough bunch. They didn't frighten easily,
11:21
Speaker 1: he said. But as this figure started walking towards them,
11:25
Speaker 1: they started to get really nervous. And they shouted out
11:29
Speaker 1: to this figure, Who are you? What are you doing?
11:33
Speaker 1: Another one of them said, Why are you here? Who
11:37
Speaker 1: are you? They started shouting out all these questions. And
11:40
Speaker 1: this figure said, did not respond, it didn't answer in
11:44
Speaker 1: any way, but continued to walk at a measured pace
11:47
Speaker 1: toward the boys. And whoever this was, they could see
11:52
Speaker 1: now that it was a very tall, very large figure
11:57
Speaker 1: and seemed somewhat threatening and menacing, particularly because this figure
12:04
Speaker 1: was not responding. So Gary shouted out, something is not
12:10
Speaker 1: right about this. and his friend Stan said, let's get
12:14
Speaker 1: the hell out of here. At that point, Gary had
12:17
Speaker 1: walked off a short distance and was trying to get
12:20
Speaker 1: a better view, but now that this figure was coming close,
12:24
Speaker 1: all four of them panicked. They quickly piled into the
12:27
Speaker 1: car and took off. As Gary says, we got into
12:31
Speaker 1: the car and got out of there so fast. We
12:34
Speaker 1: went down the same small skinny road that just winds
12:38
Speaker 1: back and forth. There's no way anything like that could
12:41
Speaker 1: have ever gotten to that place. So they drove down
12:45
Speaker 1: this road as fast as they could and went straight
12:48
Speaker 1: to the police station. They found actually a police officer
12:52
Speaker 1: patrolling the San Dimas golf course in his cruiser, and
12:57
Speaker 1: they excitedly told this officer what they had seen and
13:00
Speaker 1: begged him to go check it out. And the officer
13:03
Speaker 1: could see that they were very emotionally shaken, so he
13:07
Speaker 1: agreed to go investigate. And while he drove off up
13:11
Speaker 1: this road, the boys returned to their home. And later
13:15
Speaker 1: that evening, Gary called the sheriff's station and asked for
13:19
Speaker 1: this officer. And the officer said that yes, he had
13:22
Speaker 1: driven up to this location and didn't find anything at all.
13:29
Speaker 1: So the very next day, Gary and his friends drove
13:33
Speaker 1: up to this same location that next morning. And as
13:37
Speaker 1: Gary said, there was nothing It was wild. They found
13:41
Speaker 1: no evidence of any landing trace cases, no evidence at
13:45
Speaker 1: all that anything had been up there. But whatever it was,
13:50
Speaker 1: it was huge. All of them are convinced that this
13:54
Speaker 1: was not a military craft of any kind. It was
13:59
Speaker 1: far too large. It was totally silent. These humanoid figures,
14:04
Speaker 1: they don't know if these were regular humans or ETs
14:09
Speaker 1: or what, but there was just too many weird things
14:12
Speaker 1: about this for it to be something normal. As Gary says,
14:17
Speaker 1: it was really scary. It was such an intense thing.
14:21
Speaker 1: It was really crazy. There was nothing fun about it.
14:25
Speaker 1: We kept on saying, who are you? What do you want?
14:29
Speaker 1: And they never answered us. It was amazing. You'd think
14:32
Speaker 1: if it was military, they would have answered. That's the
14:35
Speaker 1: part that kind of gets to me. So yeah, they
14:40
Speaker 1: are convinced they came upon a landed UFO with humanoids.
14:45
Speaker 1: And I tend to agree. It's a very strange case.
14:49
Speaker 1: These two above cases I did present in my book, Wondrous.
14:54
Speaker 1: And I've got a third case that I'd like to
14:55
Speaker 1: present to you, which is also very, very strange. And
15:00
Speaker 1: I call this third case, Chased by a UFO. This occurred...
15:09
Speaker 1: many years ago in 1958 there are three main witnesses
15:16
Speaker 1: Dorothy Hudson age 16 her friend Carol and Dorothy's mom
15:22
Speaker 1: Dorothy Senior and this took place in Koreatown in Southern
15:28
Speaker 1: California specifically at the Pio Pico library in Koreatown and
15:36
Speaker 1: what happened is These two teenagers, Dorothy and her friend Carol,
15:42
Speaker 1: would often go to the library to hang out and
15:45
Speaker 1: have fun and read. And that's what they were doing
15:49
Speaker 1: on this evening. And their mom dropped them off at
15:55
Speaker 1: the library. And as they were going into the library,
15:59
Speaker 1: Carol happened to look up and saw this weird glowing
16:03
Speaker 1: object way, way high up in the sky. And she
16:07
Speaker 1: looked at it and Although it was very much like
16:11
Speaker 1: a star, it was much brighter than a star. And
16:15
Speaker 1: it scared her a little bit because she got the
16:16
Speaker 1: weird feeling that it was looking at her. But she
16:20
Speaker 1: didn't really know what to think. She mentioned it to Dorothy.
16:26
Speaker 1: And Dorothy saw it too. And they just kind of
16:29
Speaker 1: shrugged and went into the library. Hung out for a
16:32
Speaker 1: couple of hours. The library closes at 9 o'clock. And...
16:38
Speaker 1: their mom was scheduled to pick them up at precisely
16:41
Speaker 1: 9 o'clock when the library closes, and they wanted to
16:46
Speaker 1: smoke a cigarette secretly before their mom arrived, so they
16:50
Speaker 1: snuck out, or not snuck out, they left the library
16:53
Speaker 1: at about 10 minutes before 9 to smoke a cigarette
16:57
Speaker 1: before Dorothy's mom showed up. And this is when this
17:02
Speaker 1: object appeared. And They saw this star-like object, and suddenly
17:11
Speaker 1: this star-like object drops down out of the sky very
17:16
Speaker 1: quickly and hovers right over the telephone wires across the street.
17:20
Speaker 1: And I'll just let Dorothy describe what happened in her
17:25
Speaker 1: own words. As she says, the library closed at 9 o'clock,
17:29
Speaker 1: and we came out of the library at about a
17:31
Speaker 1: quarter to 9 to wait for my mom to pick
17:34
Speaker 1: us up. And as we were sitting there, we saw
17:36
Speaker 1: this light up in the sky and whatever it was
17:39
Speaker 1: kept getting bigger and bigger until all of a sudden
17:43
Speaker 1: it came down and it was hovering above the street
17:47
Speaker 1: over the library. We sat there and we looked at
17:50
Speaker 1: it and we didn't know what it was. It had
17:54
Speaker 1: a lot of lights on it and it was still.
17:57
Speaker 1: There was no noise coming from it, but the lights
18:01
Speaker 1: were moving around it. Either the lights were blinking off
18:04
Speaker 1: and on, or it was moving in a circular motion.
18:08
Speaker 1: The object was very, very big. It was huge. And
18:12
Speaker 1: we just sat there and looked at it. It was
18:16
Speaker 1: as big as a house, but it was round, perfectly round.
18:20
Speaker 1: The lights were red, yellow, and white. And they were
18:25
Speaker 1: either blinking off and on, or they were moving around
18:28
Speaker 1: like a lid on a bottle. The closest thing I've
18:32
Speaker 1: seen to it was in that movie, Close Encounters. That
18:37
Speaker 1: was the closest thing, the mothership, but it was nowhere
18:39
Speaker 1: near that size. But that was the closest thing. When
18:43
Speaker 1: I saw that movie, I said, that looks almost exactly
18:47
Speaker 1: like what I saw when I was a kid. Carol,
18:51
Speaker 1: of course, saw it too and gave a vivid description.
18:57
Speaker 1: As Carol says, All I remember... is we were at
19:02
Speaker 1: the library, and I saw it before we went in there.
19:05
Speaker 1: And it was really small and shiny. It was staying
19:09
Speaker 1: up in the sky. And we went into the library,
19:12
Speaker 1: and when we came out, it was still there. I
19:15
Speaker 1: don't know what it was, really. And at this point,
19:23
Speaker 1: this is when Dorothy's mother showed up. As Dorothy's mother says,
19:32
Speaker 1: The girls were at the library and I went to
19:34
Speaker 1: pick them up. And I saw this thing. And they said, look,
19:38
Speaker 1: it's up there. And I thought it was like a light,
19:42
Speaker 1: but it wasn't a round light. Like when you look
19:44
Speaker 1: out on the horizon, it looked like a flat light.
19:47
Speaker 1: I mean, that's the only way I know how to
19:50
Speaker 1: explain it. It just kind of stayed in place. How
19:54
Speaker 1: can I explain it to you? It was like if
19:57
Speaker 1: you had a plate that was all lit up. It
19:59
Speaker 1: was shining from the top and the bottom, but it
20:02
Speaker 1: just stayed in place like it was hovering. None of
20:06
Speaker 1: them felt any fear at this point. As Dorothy says,
20:11
Speaker 1: neither one of us felt any type of fear or anything.
20:13
Speaker 1: We were just perplexed as to what it was. About
20:17
Speaker 1: five minutes after we saw it, it didn't move. It
20:20
Speaker 1: was just hovering over the street in front of the library.
20:23
Speaker 1: My mom's car pulls up, and so we jumped in
20:26
Speaker 1: the car, and I said, Mom, look at that. What
20:29
Speaker 1: is that? She said, I don't know what it is.
20:32
Speaker 1: It's probably a helicopter. I said, No, it's not a helicopter.
20:36
Speaker 1: Look how big it is. It's round. It doesn't have
20:39
Speaker 1: any propellers or anything. And she said, well, I don't
20:42
Speaker 1: know what it is. So at this point, they start
20:46
Speaker 1: to drive home. And this is when they realize it
20:49
Speaker 1: is actually following them. And as Dorothy says, we live
20:58
Speaker 1: maybe a mile, a mile and a half from the library.
21:02
Speaker 1: And this object followed us all the way home over
21:05
Speaker 1: the car. There was no noise, no nothing. And I
21:09
Speaker 1: remember my mom, her getting a little nervous. Carol and
21:12
Speaker 1: I were sitting in the back seat, and we kept
21:14
Speaker 1: looking out at it. We pulled up in front of
21:17
Speaker 1: the house, and my mom said, just get out of
21:19
Speaker 1: the car and get into the house. Dorothy's mom confirms this,
21:25
Speaker 1: and she says, I was driving the kids home, and
21:29
Speaker 1: I could hear them talking in the back seat. It's
21:31
Speaker 1: following us. It's following us. But you know how mothers
21:35
Speaker 1: are when they work and they're tired. They don't pay
21:38
Speaker 1: too much attention. Carol, of course, also remembers this object
21:44
Speaker 1: following them home. And as she says, it followed us home.
21:53
Speaker 1: And when we came out, it followed us home. And
21:58
Speaker 1: when we got to her house, it was there. We
22:00
Speaker 1: could still see it. It was like it followed us home.
22:04
Speaker 1: It was weird because it seemed like it followed us home.
22:09
Speaker 1: At this point, the object zipped away and it must
22:12
Speaker 1: have been around this time that they had missing time.
22:16
Speaker 1: And as Dorothy says, at this point now we were
22:21
Speaker 1: really wondering what the heck it was, but I never
22:24
Speaker 1: felt any fear. I don't know if my mom or
22:27
Speaker 1: my girlfriend Carol did. So we got out and went
22:30
Speaker 1: into the house. Carol came into the house with me
22:33
Speaker 1: We came back out a few minutes later, and it
22:35
Speaker 1: was still out there, hovering way above the trees. How high,
22:39
Speaker 1: I have no idea. I was a kid at the time,
22:42
Speaker 1: so I don't know how high it was. But then,
22:44
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, like a bat out of hell,
22:47
Speaker 1: it just took off. It went whoosh. I mean, it
22:50
Speaker 1: was gone from a big object to a tiny little
22:54
Speaker 1: object in the sky. And it just went away. At
22:58
Speaker 1: that point, I went in, and I remember looking at
23:01
Speaker 1: the clock. and it was exactly 10 o'clock. Now my
23:05
Speaker 1: mother picked us up an hour before at 9 o'clock
23:08
Speaker 1: at the library, maybe 5 minutes after 9, and it
23:11
Speaker 1: takes only 10, maybe 15 minutes to come home. And
23:15
Speaker 1: when I went back into the house, Carol and I
23:18
Speaker 1: stayed in the house about 5 or 10 minutes, and
23:20
Speaker 1: then we went back outside. There's a whole half an
23:24
Speaker 1: hour in there someplace, maybe 20, 25 minutes, where I
23:28
Speaker 1: don't know what, you know, I don't remember anything. How
23:31
Speaker 1: did it get to be 10 o'clock so quickly? So
23:36
Speaker 1: this missing time aspect confused her, but at the time
23:40
Speaker 1: she didn't think much about it. She says, as Dorothy says,
23:48
Speaker 1: my mom was supposed to pick us up at 9 o'clock,
23:50
Speaker 1: and Carol and I went out earlier than 9 o'clock,
23:54
Speaker 1: and she was always on time. She picked us up
23:56
Speaker 1: probably exactly at 9 o'clock, And the next time I
23:59
Speaker 1: remember looking at the clock was after we got into
24:02
Speaker 1: the house, which was supposedly 15 minutes later. And after
24:07
Speaker 1: I got into the house and went running around and
24:08
Speaker 1: looking out the window and everything, all of a sudden
24:11
Speaker 1: I looked at the clock and it said 10 o'clock.
24:13
Speaker 1: And I said to Carol, do you know it's 10
24:16
Speaker 1: o'clock already? And she said, you're kidding. I said, no,
24:20
Speaker 1: it's 10 o'clock already. And Carol said, well, I'm supposed
24:24
Speaker 1: to be home at 10. I said, well, you better
24:27
Speaker 1: go home because it's 10 o'clock now. We didn't know
24:30
Speaker 1: what happened to the time, but we never would have
24:33
Speaker 1: thought about it that much. It wasn't until some time
24:36
Speaker 1: later when I was older and I talked to Mom
24:39
Speaker 1: and Carol about it, and we said, yeah, that was
24:42
Speaker 1: a strange incident. It upset Carol quite a bit, and
24:48
Speaker 1: in fact, she begged Dorothy and Dorothy's mom to watch
24:55
Speaker 1: her carefully as she walked home, which was just a
24:58
Speaker 1: few blocks away, or a few houses away, to make
25:02
Speaker 1: sure that she got home safely. So this totally freaked
25:07
Speaker 1: her out. As Carol says, I remember that we got home.
25:16
Speaker 1: I think I went in her house for a minute
25:18
Speaker 1: and then I came out and I ran on home
25:20
Speaker 1: because I remember it as still up in the sky.
25:22
Speaker 1: And I said, I'm going home, and I ran home.
25:27
Speaker 1: I was kind of scared. He followed us home, and
25:30
Speaker 1: you know, it seems weird that it picked on us.
25:36
Speaker 1: So it's quite obvious to all of them that they
25:40
Speaker 1: experienced a period of missing time. And this was well
25:45
Speaker 1: before the Betty and Barney Hill case had been publicized.
25:51
Speaker 1: So they had no idea that missing time could possibly
25:54
Speaker 1: mean a closer encounter or being actually taken on board.
25:58
Speaker 1: And when they learned about missing time, they realized that
26:05
Speaker 1: this could have been a much more extensive encounter than
26:09
Speaker 1: they consciously remember. So that really concerned them. And as
26:14
Speaker 1: Dorothy says, I have no recollection of anything like that occurring,
26:19
Speaker 1: but I definitely believe in UFOs because I saw one.
26:22
Speaker 1: I saw one. It's just really strange. I don't know
26:27
Speaker 1: if I'd really... I'm sure a lot of people say this,
26:29
Speaker 1: but I don't know if I'd really want to know
26:31
Speaker 1: or not because if something like that actually happened to me,
26:36
Speaker 1: I don't know what kind of effect it would have
26:38
Speaker 1: on me if I remembered. I mean, if it happened,
26:41
Speaker 1: it's in my subconscious someplace, but I don't want my
26:45
Speaker 1: conscious part to see I don't want to be traumatized
26:49
Speaker 1: many years after the fact. Dorothy has no idea when
26:57
Speaker 1: this missing time occurred, but presumably it was during this
27:02
Speaker 1: drive or perhaps when they stepped outside. But as Dorothy says,
27:06
Speaker 1: I never felt dizzy, I never felt ill or physically
27:10
Speaker 1: strange or mentally strange or anything like that. The UFO
27:14
Speaker 1: was low, Not low enough for me to touch it,
27:17
Speaker 1: but it hovered maybe the height of two telephone poles,
27:21
Speaker 1: one on top of each other. First time I saw it,
27:24
Speaker 1: it was way high up in the sky. It was
27:25
Speaker 1: moving around. And when I say up in the sky,
27:29
Speaker 1: like an airplane. And we saw it come in, and
27:32
Speaker 1: it got close. But we had no sense of fear
27:35
Speaker 1: at all, maybe because we were young, or it didn't
27:38
Speaker 1: make a lot of noise or anything. You know, sometimes
27:41
Speaker 1: noise can scare you more than the actual visual thing.
27:45
Speaker 1: but I honestly don't think I do want to know
27:49
Speaker 1: what happened. And Carol feels pretty much the same way
27:55
Speaker 1: about this missing time and the possibility that there was
27:59
Speaker 1: an onboard experience. As Carol says, you know, it's funny.
28:03
Speaker 1: I was thinking one day about that, and I thought, gee,
28:06
Speaker 1: I wonder if I was ever in it, you know,
28:10
Speaker 1: because we had seen that. They had something on television
28:14
Speaker 1: the other day. I think it was on Donahue or Oprah.
28:17
Speaker 1: They were talking about this big thing, a spaceship. That's
28:20
Speaker 1: when I was thinking about it, just the other day.
28:22
Speaker 1: When I asked Carol if she was interested in knowing
28:28
Speaker 1: what happened during the missing time, she said, Hmm, I
28:33
Speaker 1: don't think so. I don't want to know. One significant
28:39
Speaker 1: sort of end note to all of this is that Carol,
28:43
Speaker 1: after I had interviewed her, told me that she had
28:47
Speaker 1: actually seen UFOs before. In fact, it was just a
28:51
Speaker 1: few months before this incident that she had a sighting.
28:55
Speaker 1: As she says, before that, I saw something in the sky.
28:59
Speaker 1: This was maybe a month before we went to the library.
29:03
Speaker 1: It was really far away, and you could just barely
29:05
Speaker 1: see it. I mean, it wasn't looking at me or anything,
29:08
Speaker 1: but I could see it going through the sky. So
29:12
Speaker 1: I think maybe Carol, Dorothy's friend, may have been the
29:16
Speaker 1: actual target of this particular UFO incident. It's impossible to
29:22
Speaker 1: say without them going under hypnosis and recalling exactly what happened.
29:28
Speaker 1: But this is a very clear-cut case of missing time
29:32
Speaker 1: involving three witnesses all of who confirm and corroborate each
29:37
Speaker 1: other's details there are many cases involving missing time and
29:41
Speaker 1: I do suspect they probably had an on board experience
29:45
Speaker 1: but at this point I certainly cannot say for sure
29:50
Speaker 1: but at the very least it's a very interesting incident
29:55
Speaker 1: in which this UFO followed them home very close, treetop level,
30:01
Speaker 1: and they had missing time. So these are the three
30:04
Speaker 1: cases I wanted to share with you today. I hope
30:07
Speaker 1: you've enjoyed this episode. I really appreciate you watching, and
30:10
Speaker 1: until next time, keep having fun!
