SAUCER SECRETS: WHAT REALLY HAPPENS TO ABDUCTEES INSIDE THE ALIEN SHIPS
by Paul McCarthy
THE JUICY DETAILS UFOLOGISTS WON'T REVEAL
UFO abductees come complete with incredible tales of tiny gray aliens,
vast starships, and horrific medical exams. But how do UFOlogists
distinguish between true abductees and pretenders, between someone who has
been through a bona fide abduction and someone who is simply repeating
information that was reported in the press?
To validate stories and sidestep hoaxes, many UFOlogists have begun to
withhold details of the abduction experience, much as police withhold the
clues fouind at the scene of a crime to trip up a thief. Only true
abductees, ivestigators say, will report the correct informational tidbits,
which have been kept from the public domain.
Artist Budd Hopkins, author of MISSING TIME and INTRUDERS, for
instance, holds back abductee reports of "what would appear to be a
notational system of letters and numbers" drawn on the inside walls of the
alien ships. David Jacobs, another abduction researcher and professor of
history at Temple University, who has just finished a book on the abduction
phenomenon, refuses to reveal a specific female body area measured by
aliens. "The area is so unusual," he says, "it's difficult to describe
precisely."
Even more circumspect is psychologist Richard Haines, who says he is
"a firm believer in holding things back" but won't reveal even in general
terms what these things are.
So far, researchers cross-checking material that has been held back
from the public have not met with all the hoped-for results. Los Angeles
UFOlogist Ann Druffel, for instance, has not found the unusual body
measurements referred to by Jacobs, nor the strange notational markings
withheld by Hopkins.
Hopkins himself notes that cross-referencing can be misleading, since
different researchers have different styles. For instance, he explains, "if
a person comments on being measured, Dave Jacobs will ask what part of the
body and from where to where, while I'll just let that go."
Some of his inconsistency might be reduced if abduction researchers
could all agree to hold back the same information, but, says Haines, "that
agreement is difficult to get in any field." It is a question of differing
research styles, he says, "with everyone trying to make his or her own
mark."
Perhaps that's why UFO researchers zealously guard the material they
withhold. In an effort to dig up some of their best-kept secrets,
therefore, we went to a proanomalies expert Dennis Stacy. After snooping
around a bit, Stacy have us his "best guess" list of some weird, bad, and
bizzare (but secret) aspect of alien life.
1. Pictographic Writing.
As Hopkins said, abductees regularly report a system of writing
on alien walls. Some sources have suggested the writing may
resemble Chinese ideograms, Egyptian hieroglyphics, or other forms
of pictorial writing.
2. Alien Nurseries.
According to Hopkins, abductees consistently report alien
nurseries--rooms in which human-alien hybrid babies are bred.
What do these rooms look like? Only the abductees (and Hopkins)
know for sure, but we think the researchers are hiding reports of
uncovered metallic incubators that take a hybrid fetus through
every stage of development.
3. Fetal Removal.
Hopkins won't reveal how the hybrid babies are actually born. Our
best guess is that machines transfer the babies from the
incubators to larger, deeper metal containers used as cribs.
4. Mother-and-Child Reunion.
Once the hybrid baby is born, it is presented to the human mother,
abductees report. What's the exact nature of this interaction?
"Let's just say it's not the way we would do it," Hopkins asserts.
We think the aliens may not touch the babies at all, perhaps
extracting them from shallow metallic containers (the alien cribs)
with robot arms and delivering them, via moving conveyors, to the
human mother, who provides physical warmth and love.
5. Letting Go.
Some of our sources have suggested that abductees are reporting
loss of bowel and bladder control. Even Hopkins and Jacobs admit
that such incidents would not be unusual "if a good deal of fear
was involved."
6. Alien Garb.
Early reports of aliens decked out in seamless, formfitting,
unisex bodysuits seem lackluster. We think the researchers may
be hiding some form of bodily decoration: colorful clothing
patches, brightly colored buttons, even tattoos.
7. Human-Alien Sex.
We believe that many abductees report the sensation of paralysis
followed by unwilling sexual intercourse with aliens. We suspect
that the unpleasant, but possibly arousing, ritual surrounding
this experience has been described in great detail by thousands of
UFO abductees.
