"Oriental Eyes" and Skin Colouration Noted In Entity Reports

Regarding skin colouration reported in UFO such as "yellowish" are all based on environment, etc. Lighter skin in Europe to absorb more Vitamin D, In fact the rarest skin colour is blue and that is caused by a rare genetic blood disorder called methemoglobinemia ( where the iron in hemoglobin is oxidized from its normal ferrous state to the ferric state, rendering it unable to carry oxygen effectively) or even certain acquired conditions like argyria (Argyria is a rare condition where the skin, nails and other tissues develop a permanent blue-grey discolouration due to chronic exposure to silver)

Humans have different skin colours due to a combination of genetics and environmental factors the primary one being the intensity of ultra violet radiation from the Sun. Therefore, you find that people in sunny regions closer to the equator have darker skin to protect against sun damage by producing more melanin, while those in areas with less sun have lighter skin, which helps the body produce essential vitamin D. Skin tones can vary in the various regions from lighter to very dark.

Skin colouration does not indicate anything other than that and humans are humans and as for "green skin" olive skin naturally has yellowish-green undertones. As we know absolutely nothing about alien life forms we can only assume that "as on Earth so in Space"!

We then have "they had eyes like Chinese" or "they had very slanted eyes like Japanese people" (Mrs Church, New Zealand, August, 1944) and "little Oriental space man". Despite those descriptions the "slanted eyes" can also be applied to some white people although, as we are about to learn, it does not depend on ethnicity.

Above: Aveley 1974

The 1974 Aveley, Essex alleged UFO abduction had a botched investigation but it needs to be pointed out that the more humanoid entities matched the one sighted at Ewloe in 1975 not to mention other reports where very light skin and pinkish eyes were noted and the clothing matched.

above Ewloe, Clwyd 1975

The term "slanted eyes" is frowned on in modern times although not everyone knows to call it an "epicanthic fold" or epicanthus. This is a skin fold of the upper eye-lid that covers the inner corner (medial canthus) of the eye. Variation occurs in the nature of this feature and the presence of "partial epicanthic folds" or "slight epicanthic folds" is noted in the relevant literature. Various factors influence whether epicanthic folds form, including ancestry, age, and certain medical conditions.

The primary cause of the epicanthic fold is the hypertrophy of the preseptal (anterior to the orbital septum) portion of the orbicularis oculi muscle -a sphincter-like muscle in the face that closes the eyelids. It arises from the nasal part of the frontal bone, from the frontal process of the maxilla in front of the lacrimal groove, and from the anterior surface and borders of a short fibrous band, the medial palpebral ligament

In fact, the shape of the epicanthic fold has led to four types being recognised:

· Epicanthus supraciliaris runs from the brow, curving downwards towards the lachrymal sac.

· Epicanthus palpebralis begins above the upper tarsus and extends to the inferior orbital rim.

· Epicanthus tarsalis originates at the upper eyelid crease and merges into the skin near the medial canthus. This is the type most often found in East Asians.

· Epicanthus inversus runs from the lower eyelid skin over the medial canthus and extends to the upper lid.^[

When it comes top "Ethnogeographic distribution" one has to thank Wikipedia:

The highest frequency of occurrence of epicanthic folds is found in specific populations or ethnicities: East Asians, Southeast Asians, Central Asians, North Asians, Polynesians, Micronesians, Indigenous peoples of the Americas, Sámi people and some African people (especially among Khoisan and Nilotic people). Among South Asians, they occur at very high frequencies among the Nepalis, Bhutanese, Northeast Indians, Kirati people and certain Adivasi (the heterogeneous tribal groups across the Indian subcontinent.The term Adivasi, a 20th-century construct meaning "ancient inhabitants", is now widely used as a self-designation by many of the communities who are officially recognized as "Scheduled Tribes" in India and as "Ethnic minorities" in Bangladesh) tribes of Eastern and Southern India. Also commonly found in Northern India, especially in Kashmir. The Hazara people in Afghanistan and Pakistan commonly have this trait. Some people in Eastern/Northern Pakistan have this trait.

In some of these populations, the trait is almost universal. This is especially true in Japan and South Korea, where a majority, up to 90% in some estimations, of adults naturally have this feature. In Southern China and Southeast Asia it's about 70 % having the feature, while 30 % naturally have double eyelids.

The epicanthic fold is often associated with greater levels of fat deposition around the eyeball. The adipose tissue is thought to provide greater insulation for the eye and sinuses from the effects of cold, especially from freezing winds, and to represent an adaptation to cold climates. It has also been postulated that the fold itself may provide a level of protection from snow blindness. Though its appearance in peoples of Southeast Asia can be linked to possible descent from cold-adapted ancestors, this does not explain its occurrence in various African peoples. The epicanthic fold found in many African people has been tentatively linked to protection for the eye from the high levels of ultraviolet light found in desert and semi-desert areas.

The exact evolutionary function and origin of epicanthic folds remains unknown. Scientific explanations include either random variation and selection (presumably sexual selection), or possible adaption to desert environment and/or high levels of ultraviolet light found in high-altitude environments, such as the Himalayas.

It is clear that many physiological aspects of entities encountered at UFO landings are not (in external look at least) dissimilar to humans in eye and skin type. But what of eyes described a pinkish/red (iris and pupil)? Brown is the most common iris colour world-wide and is genetically dominant to all other iris colors. Green is the rarest eye color in less than 5% of the world population. Although there are countless color combinations, the main color groups are classified as brown, blue, gray, hazel, green, and amber. So pink or "red"? Again not unexplainable.

A red or pink-appearing iris in humans is an extremely rare condition and typically caused by albinism, a genetic condition resulting in little or no melanin (pigment) in the eye. The red colour described is not a pigment itself but the result of light reflecting off the tiny blood vessels in the back of the eye and the iris itself becoming visible.

When we consider the fact that in some of these cases the entity is described as pale or "white as a ghost" it could well be albinism is normal.

The bottom line is that we can only go by what is reported and it is interesting that in cases that do seem to be genuine the pink/red and "Chinese" or "Japanese" eye types are common.

Linda Taylor: A Lost Experience With No One To Blame

Taken from Earth: The Lost Contacts

Considering that I have highlighted so many failures in Ufology when it comes to on board experiences I thought that it was worth noting a case in which all that could possibly be done was but the experience is still lost. In fact, when it comes to the Linda Taylor case you will not find anything online as there was no detailed abduction experience recovered and, therefore, no money or views in it.

The main source for this report is John Hanson and Dawn Holloway’s Haunted Skies (vol. 9 1981-1986; pp. 148-149).

On the 10^th January, 1982, Linda Taylor was driving along the East Lancashire road. It was 1900 hrs and in the rear seat of the car was her mother and up to that point it had been a normal journey. Then they spotted a strange “light” behind some trees that was performing strange zig-zagging movements before shooting up into the sky and disappearing. Linda’s car then began to oose speed and so she changed gear and put her foot down on the accelerator; the car began vibrating and the headlights flashed on and off.

A 1930s style black car then “appeared” in front of her own with its bumper almost touching her own car bumper. The car had no lights and no number plate that could be seen and as in such vehicles (in some cases the windows are small and square) there was a small, oval rear window. Linda stated:

“I could see the driver. He was a very large figure, with broad shoulders, dressed in dark clothing, with a bowler hat. ..my mother shouted, ‘Look out, we are going to crash into it’. I changed down into second gear, to avoid crashing into it, and opened the window, thinking to shout at bthe man, and saw a UFO covered in lights, each about five feet in diameter – all different colours. I screamed and put my head back inside the car. As I did that, the car in front vanished.”

Linda then pulled into a garage forecourt just before the M63 motorway and with her mother watched the huge “light” and as they watched the object began to circle the garage. Linda explained:

“It was as if time stood still. I am sure it circled us, three times, although my mum thought it was only once – then it stopped above a tree, made a quick movement, tilted, and began to vibrate, before rising up into the sky.”

As far as the duo was concerned it had just been a UFO sighting and Linda dropped her mother off at her home in Hulme and the drove back home. On arriving home and parking the car, Linda realised that it was almost an hour later than it should have been. She was very shaken and felt nausea as she knocked on the front door of her house. Her husband opened the door and, looking at her, thought Linda had been involved in an accident:

“I told him to phone my mother, to find out what had happened, and went straight to the toilet, where I was violently sick. I then noticed my legs were covered in strange black and red marks. They disappeared, the following day. I kept quiet about what had happened for 9 months, but after seeing a TV documentary about UFOs, contacted UFO researchers Michael Sachs and Harry Harris, who arranged for me to be hypnotically regressed.”

Here is where the Reader might expect to hear about Linda being placed on a table of sorts and examined by aliens of one type or another. In fact, despite hypnotic regression Linda could remember no more than is outlined here so I will look at this as an utter sceptic.

Linda and her mother were too busy watching the UFO (a misidentification) and did not see the car over take them and they then watched something else they perceived to be a UFO and neither can get the story straight on this – it circled three times ot once? Watching a UFO programme on TV Linda fell into the trap of believing that she had been abducted which is why she remembered nothing else under hypnosis. Even Ufologists have fallen into that trap and suddenly believed that they had life long abductions. File closed.

Now I will look at it based on what Linda recalled. Firstly, yes, it is possible that concentrating on the UFO meant that Linda had not noticed the car over-taking. A 1930s car on the road in 1982 would not be bizarre. I knew a couple of men who used to be car enthusiasts and restored “junk” 1930s cars as a hobby as well as for profit. In 2020 I watched an old 1930s Ford being driven along a road and it looked in immaculate condition and was not as loud as I thought it would be. The man wore a bowler hat; sorry, I can find nothing peculiar there especially if the person driving the car was into everything vintage as some people are. He looked big; these old cars are quite compact and if the person driving it is big built then nothing strange here. The car “disappeared” and here is where I think something may be unusual.

Linda and her mother had been watching the “light” so that may have distracted both of them into not noticing the car pulling in front. Remember that Linda wound down the car window to give the man a “red ear” but looked up and saw the large UFO and then screamed. Looking forward the old car was gone. This may well be when something happened which may or may not have involved the car in front and that would be pure wild speculation but if we look at this based on other cases.

Possibility 1 is that it could be when Linda screamed that something happened and then they were both placed back in the car but later on and so the old car had simply continued its journey.

Possibility 2 is that when Linda screamed “something” was done to prepare the women (I can find no information on what her mother described) for what was about to happen; perhaps taking control of the car and both women so things were “slowed down” enough so that the other car was far enough away as its driver was of no interest.

In other words the women could have undergone an on board experience at that location.

Possibility 3 is that it was put into the minds of the two women to drive into the deserted garage forecourt to stop and watch the UFO. This is a strong possibility as otherwise it is unusual that a large object that had frightened both and made Linda scream when she saw it was considered something to stop and observe. Yes, it could have been curiosity getting the better of them but worth noting.

Possibility 4 is that the initial sighting and then the observation at the forecourt (where there seems to be some confusion) was merely “them” making sure their selection was the right one. Again, in UFO reports there are cases of UFOs being seen and moving in close to witnesses before a later on board event.

This gives us two possible points in the account where something may have happened; the road when the car overtook(?) and the garage forecourt. But there is Possibility 5 and that is that Linda and her mother did not have on board experiences but that Linda did on her journey home after dropping off her mother and when she was alone as her mother being older would be of no interest?. The nausea and shock is something noted in the aftermath of on board experiences and then we have the black and red markings that disappeared; again something noted following on board experiences.

It is obvious that the events of that night puzzled and concerned Linda. It may well be that following the TV programme on UFOs she was not convinced that she had been abducted but an investigation might provide answers or even an alternative solution. Harry Harris’ files are gone (we know where some are but we cannot access them) but even those would not provide any answers.

In this case Linda waited nine months until she learnt of a possible way to get at the truth as nothing had been recalled over that period. The hypnosis failed. No aliens, no medical examination or any of the usual recalled details. Linda’s car was, apparently, undamaged so she had not been in an accident after dropping her mother off. The dark markings indicate that something happened as does the shock and vomiting but just what is complete speculation and there are other seeming time loss reports where not even hypnosis can break through a mental block -pushing and pushing to break such a block is what got us the “Greys”.

I have no doubt that something did happen to at least Linda Taylor but if it has not been recalled after 42 years I doubt it ever will be. The debate might well be whether recalling what happened that night would be good for Linda Taylor?

There have been many claims of UFO landings and encounters with alien entities since 1947 and while some such as that of Betty and Barney Hill and Travis Walton may be well known they were not the first and certainly not the best incidents.

The Case of Maria Elodia Pretzel and the Night Visitor

Taken from Earth: The Lost Contacts

People assume that because I give higher strangeness ratings to multi-witness reports or reports where there is independent corroboration of some kind that I dismiss all other cases. No, that is not how it works because although it is one person’s account there can be additional factors that make it more credible. The Jean Hingley “Mince Pie Martians” report could be easily dismissed but at the time there were a number of UFO reports and then there was the ground trace that the percipient could not have made by herself.

Yes, there are reports that when you read the first paragraph it is easy to say sleep paralysis or even hypnagogic state. Even so, as far as I am concerned, those reports are still worth noting -as is the fact that “veteran” Ufologists and “ghost hunters” cite these as reports as evidence. If you are a “Thirty year veteran Ufologist” and you hear of sleep paralysis and immediately jump to “alien abduction” or a “Ghost hunter” and this is all a sign of a demon or paranormal activity it might be time that you moved on to actually reading books because all you are doing is pushing fantasy.

A solo witness or percipient with no independent back-up witnesses is one whose word you have to take but still gets a low strangeness rating. During 1968 there was another alleged world-wide UFO wave and I found out a long time ago that around 79-85% of UFO reports during these periods are anything but unidentified. However, if you have a period of UFO activity not publicised until much later (in other words some Ufologists are aware but not the public) then the reason for someone to make up a close encounter story for publicity or whatever is not there. One case that I read of with interest at the time was the 1968 Villa Carlos Paz incident.

At the time Argentinian Ufologist Luis Burgos was unable to investigate but luckily Oscar A. Galindez wrote a lengthy report for the Flying Saucer Review (The Anthropomorphic Entity at Villa Carlos Paz vol. 26, no. 5 pp. 8-17) and its location layout map and illustrations were far superior to most other FSR reports at the time. It was also interesting to read an article by Luis Burgos who asked Daniel Jose Lopez, FAO, Bs. As, to visit the location and interview the witness in 1986 some 18 years after the incident had occurred (posted in English as The Night Visitor, Sign Of The Times website). Burgos wrote:

“From the incomparable 1968 Argentinean - and worldwide - UFO wave, I remember that one of the most widely known and controversial cases involved an encounter between a young woman and a strange entity in the mountain ranges of Córdoba. Much has been said since then: that it was a hoax with the purpose of attracting tourists, that the protagonist herself confected the story, to a media-driven creation. Even today, naysayers hiding behind curtains will have a field day with it”.

Well, a UFO incident not attracting debunkers is no rarity but Burgos noted:

“And the trip yielded results, since the eyewitness interview presented fundamental evidence suggesting that "something indeed happened at the time". A story that was consistent, detailed”.

The Villa Carlos Paz is described as a classic Argentinean tourist destination, located some 30 kilometres west of Cordoba. Along Route No. 20 and some two kilometres from the centre of town is the "La Cuesta" motel. This motel is owned by Mr. Pedro J. Pretzel and his 19 years old daughter, Maria, helped in running the establishment. Maria Elodia Pretzel was described at the time as a determined young woman who was well thought of in her community. It was ascertained at the time of the encounter that she did not read science fiction. Early in 1968 she had undergone surgery (I can find no reference regarding what the surgery was for and Galindez does not even refer to it). After recovery, she assisted in managing the hotel.

At approximately 0105 hrs on the 14^th June, 1968, Mr. Pretzel was driving home along Route 20 when he saw "two large red lights, side-by-side over the road, too far apart to be the tail-lights of another car" and around 100 metres from his motel. It is worth noting that there were no street lights in the area at that time. As Pretzel was within 50 metres of the lights he realised that they were much higher off the ground than he had assumed; around 1.40 to 1.50 metres in fact. The lights were also much further apart than any vehicle tail lights; the space between them being approximately 5-6 metres. The red lights reflected off of the road surface and he believed that thewy were actually attached to a large object that he could not see due to the darkness. Turning into the motel parking space he halted his van, got out and entered the motel by the side door

Pretzel noticed that the regular lights in the dining room were off but that the fluorescent lights were still on -as they were in the kitchen. Looking around he found the laundry light was on and this was unusual as his daughter was quite conscientious about such things. He called out to his daughter assuming that she was still up and about but got no reply and so he went into the laundry. Here he found his daughter on her knees and distraught and all she say was “A man! A man!” This is where the Burgos account varies and this may be due to a poor translation as he writes; “he headed for her bedroom, only to find the young woman spread out on the bed, unconscious” in fact, Galindez wrote: “he found her on her knees on the floor and huddled over a divan, her head between her hands and her elbows propped on the divan”. This is why original accounts are important to get a hold of.

After his daughter burst into tears, Pretzel set off to search for the intruder who had put his daughter in such a state. The cellar beneath the laundry was empty as were all the other rooms in the building. He then went outside and searched but found no one. One thing he did note was that the two red lights were now gone; this was the UFO sighting component of the event. Pretzel then went back inside to comfort his daughter and ask her what had happened.

At 0102 hrs, Maria Elodia had accompanied two guests to the side door and car park and then closed the door, though he could not remember whether she had locked it. She then switched off the ordinary lights on the ground floor and mezzanine as well as the decorative lights. The three fluorescent lights were left on all night -the Burgos account makes their being left on seem unusual which it was not. She then walked across the small bar area and through a side door into the kitchen before heading for the laundry. Her intention was to lock the rear door of the building. The lights were still on in the kitchen and laundry but as she was about to lock the back door noticed a bright light showing through the serving hatch and seeming to come from the bar or dining room. This slightly blue glow from around the serving hatch puzzled her as only the three fluorescent lights should be on. Thinking that either her father had returned or a guest had arrived and turned the other lights on, Maria Elodia headed for the dining and as she doorway between the bar and kitchen area she received a shock.

In front of the bar counter, 7 metres from her, stood a 2 metres tall man dressed in a shining light blue, tight-fitting one-piece suit that was made of a material that gave the impression of scales; this covered the hands as feet as well. Around the waist was a narrow blue belt. In the entity’s left hand was a glass-looking sphere which “irradiated a coherent beam of light – light of a faintly pale blue colour, almost white”. The entity was constantly moving this sphere back and forth all the while smiling. He was standing as though he had just stopped mid-stride and the side door leading to the car park was open and Maria Elodia assumed he had come entered through this. Galindez notes that:

“Her first visual contact with the entity produced two simultaneous effects...on one hand she had the sensation that she was being misshaped, drawn out lengthways, and made thinner, particularly her face. It felt as though some invisible and superior force were affecting her whole body and distorting it. She explained that the sensation was in a way rather like the effect of those distorting mirrors that one sees in amusement centres.” While experiencing this she tried to call out but could not “she felt as though her brain was blocked; she used the term “ocupado” occupied. All that she could do was raise her hands to her head and stand there, motionless. A non - accented voice speaking Spanish “as though there were a loudspeaker or transistor radio fixed inside my ears” the words “Don’t be afraid! Don’t be afraid!” (“¡No tengas miedo!”) and this phrase was continuously repeated.

Maria Elodia felt herself suddenly grip the bar counter with both hands – although she had absolutely no recollection of having moved there from the door -18 years later how she was still unable to explain what happened. Is it possible that something else happened? The times given by father and daughter are too tight to suggest missing time so, perhaps, Maria Elodia did moved herself but it was automatic and just not recalled. Whatever, the entity was still on the same spot but now just 3 metres away. The entity was rhythmically moving the sphere in its left hand back and forth. The words “Don’t be afraid!” were repeated as she felt a tingling sensation in her legs as though they “had gone to sleep”.

The entity now raised his right arm, palm of hand upwards and the tips of his fingers were emitting flashing beams of light. It was now that Maria Elodia noticed that on the back of the entity’s was attached a rectangular device which covered the four fingers. It was as the entity had raised its arm that she also felt herself drained of strength and falling backward; but the falling was slowed down and all her muscles were relaxed. This stopped when her head was only 20- 25 cms from the floor -only her heels were in contact with the floor. Her body then began to slowly rise until she was once again standing upright; once again she gripped the top of the counter, however, the entity raised his right arm and once again she fell slowly, but this time to her right and the falling process stopped when her shoulder was 20 – 25cms from the floor. Then, once again, she rose until standing upright and again grabbing the counter. The entity now began to approach her.

The entity moved to the extreme right of the counter moving slowly with one foot straight in front of the other and still smiling away. Maria Elodia now noticed that the tips of the entity’s toes were also emitting luminous beams just like his fingers. The glowing sphere in the entity’s hand now “went out” and the sphere was a dark blue collar. Now she could see that the light had been coming from a number small protuberances resembling truncated cones. When the sphere went out so the repeating of “Don’t be afraid” also stopped. The entity then “began to flex his left forearm until it formed a right angle to his body” and remained motionless in that position for several seconds before turning on his heel in a clock-wise direction to face the side door leading out into the car park. The entity then started to walk towards the door in the “toe of each foot touching the heel of the other foot”. Now the percipient noticed that at that rear the entity was wearing a sort of “pleated skirt” made of the same material as his suit. Still with left arm extended and unlit sphere in hand the entity reached the door and being a little taller than it, lowered his head slightly and walked outside; the door closed behind him but whether he had physically closed it she had no idea.

As the entity left so the tingling sensation left her legs and she tried to escape into the rear rooms but was shaken and stunned. Bracing herself against the wall and counter, she managed to get into the kitchen and then to the laundry where she dropped to her knees against a divan; it was here that her father found her and at no point did she lose consciousness. At 0600 hrs that morning for a few seconds she felt the tingling sensation again in both legs; this happened 2-3 times the next night. Over the following nights she frequently woke up in terror having heard the words “Don’t be afraid!” and it is likely that this was the psychological after effects of the encounter. The emotional state she was in lasted for several days and got worse as her menses started.

Dr. Hugo Vaggione was the ex- director of the Villa Carlos Paz Municipal Hospital and the Pretzels family doctor and because of the after effects of the encounter suggested that Maria Elodia go away for a while and so her father sent her to Salta for three weeks. On her return home she was “fully recovered”.

The investigators checked on times and because Maria Elodia had looked at the alarm clock to give two guests a call and from there it was estimated that the encounter lasted 3- 4 minutes so from seeing the bright light at 0103 hrs and the entity leaving at 0107 or 0108 hrs; her father arriving at 0110 hrs.

What did Burgos reveal from Daniel Jose Lopez’s investigation? Well, a lot of confusion as already noted and this:

“The being advanced toward her with a kindly, calm manner, moving his lips slowly, speaking a strange, melodic language that reminded her of Japanese. He said something like "cling-gling-crish". At a given moment, the young woman felt a sensation of "bubbles in her head" and a feeling of perspiration, but when she touched her neck, she was perfectly dry. Maria Elodia was able to dash for the safety of the counter, even as the entity moved the orb constantly and tried to get near her. She claims that she could hear, in the recesses of her mind, a message that repeated: "Don't be afraid…

“Suddenly, the bright orb went out. The stranger stopped, spun around and withdrew toward the outside door. As he turned, the experiencer was able to see a kind of skirt around him, but the truly uncanny event occurred as he approached the door: it opened by itself and closed as he departed.

“From that moment on, Maria Elodia, who had backed away, remembered nothing more. A few moments later, her father arrived.”

Here we have to wonder whether this was a bad translation or if, after 18 years, Maria Elodia’s memory was playing tricks; although a poor investigation report cannot be ruled out. There is a quote from Dr. Vaggione whose age is given as 33 this must therefore be a quote from the time of the encounter as if the good doctor was 33 some 18 years after the incident then he was a very young ex - hospital director! The doctor described Maria Elodia as a somewhat introverted person but not one given to fantasy.

There were claims of high levels of radiation found at the points where the entity had stood but this appears to be false information from Ufologists and others who never investigated the report.

Checking, Burgos did note:

“There was, however, another close encounter in Argentina with an occupant resembling the one in the Villa Carlos Paz incident. This was the famous encounter at La Florida, in San Luis, where a tall figure, similarly clad, appeared before three fishermen on the night of February 4-5, 1978.”

Interestingly, there were numerous UFO reports on the night of the 13^th /14^th June “and humanoid sightings throughout various provinces in Argentina. Right there, in the vicinity of the "La Cuesta" motel, local residents reported seeing "two very powerful red lights" in flight around 22:00 hours on the evening of June 13.” But the UFO activity was known about in 1968 so nothing new was really added to the case.

Let us say that there was no UFO seen by Mr Pretzel and others that night what are we left with? A young woman working hard in a motel in the early hours of the morning after recovering from surgery earlier in the year: what was the surgery for? The sensations Maria Elodia describes could be neurological or, if she had slipped into an altered state they were all in her mind. The tingling and waking in terror having heard the voice again could also be psychological and unlike Jean Hingley’s case there was no mysterious ground markings left behind. That would all fit rather nicely and explain things away.

Looking at it from a UFO angle we have the young woman at the motel alone after having seen the last two guests off. How long had the object Mr Pretzel observed been hanging around? It was an unlit road and would the two guests notice the red lights? Doubtful but there is something missing here and that is a complete documented schedule for Maria Elodia that day with times as accurate as can be. She looked at the alarm clock and saw it was 0100 hrs and remembered that the two guests had to be called but what was she doing up to that point since there was just her and the two guests in the motel? The duration of the encounter is odd as is the fact that she could not remember whether she had locked the side door or not and the entity just being there. Were the investigators looking at the wrong period of time in this case?

There seems to have been UFO activity and the red lights were attached to an object near the motel suggests that it and the entity were connected. Why did Mr. Pretzel not see the entity as it left the motel as it was, if correct, at best 2 minutes from when the entity left the motel and Pretzel drove into the car park. Did the entity leave as it was alerted to Pretzel’s imminent arrival? The investigators did an excellent job of covering the period of 0100 to 0110 hours but everything before that...nothing. It is far too late over five decades later to find out and this is why we have a very interesting case but incomplete: always look at how any percipient spent the day and night before an encounter and treat that period of time as being just as important as the duration of the encounter.

We have a very brief (we believe) encounter and no physical evidence as well as one where the supposed percipients undisclosed reason for surgery and physiological and psychological effects could be used to dismiss the case.

If you want to read factual, researched accounts rather than fiction then this book will educate you on these contacts -many ignored by Ufology, mishandled or plain ignored.

Just an aside really

In every case that I have studied involving seemingly genuine on board UFO experiences there is one thing that basically slaps me in the face.

The faces and more importantly the expression and look in the eyes of those involved. If you look at the blog header featuring the women involved in the Liberty case you see that look. In fact, the youngest of the trio, Mona Stafford on the right, is a perfect example of that look. Even decades later in a brief TV interview she had this same expression and look.

I suppose that is an indicator of someone who has undergone a traumatic experience. In this case the shattering of a world view on a night when the women were celebrating Mona's birthday and having fun. I have tried to trace Mona Stafford but even the TV station that interviewed her lost her details.

Ufology could not give a damn. No "Greys". No life long abductions. Some Ufologists/groups had no idea who I was talking about when I made enquiries. Once the sensational UFO magazine articles and book were out of the way the women were of no further interest.

Damn Ufology/Ufologists because they exploited these women and many others for as long as they could and once the money and publicity died down they were dumped. Not a single thought about how these people had their lives shattered and how badly they were treated.

Damn Ufology/Ufologists

Gerardo Scharff - The Villamarian abducted by a UFO 1966

Full credit goes to Daniel Rodríguez

"They told me not to be afraid"

The neighbor claimed to have been living with celestial beings for more than a week. He had to wait a long time to be able to tell the tale. "They are going to come back and we are all going to see it," he predicted

"They told me not to be afraid"Gerardo gets emotional when he remembers the moment that changed his life (photos, Roberto Zayas).

Tuesday, June 25, 2024

"You will ask me why one keeps a secret for so many years," says Gerardo Scharff (70), a Villamariense who earns his living as a taxi driver in the city.

Scharff will provide details of his experience next Saturday, July 6 at the Medioteca within the framework of the Café Ufológico of the Cirius group

At times his voice breaks, but he continues to narrate his adventure, the one that many would have wished to have.

And what he has to tell is strong, powerful and arouses the curiosity of even the most skeptical: 58 years ago - when he was 12 - he was abducted in an Unidentified Flying Object (UFO), by celestial beings and was with them for 10 days. He knew their customs, their city, their physiognomy and also their feelings.

Scharff followed the orders: "Someone had to make contact with him," he was told, "so that he could put into words everything he experienced when he was a child working as a field laborer. Today, showing a scar, he assures that it has to do with that event."

The beginning

"When I was 7 years old, my parents kicked me out of the house and I ended up working in a field that is going to the end of Buenos Aires Street," he began. The place is located approximately 20 kilometers from Villa María, but - for privacy reasons - and at the request of the person in charge of the property, the location is reserved.

Little Gerardo was in charge of herding the cows for the dairy farm, in his task as a herdsman. He was mistreated, slept on a mattress made of burlap bags and ate little.

"I had a very bad time. I cried and asked the sky, and the stars for someone to help me; that someone came to help me, because I was lying like a dog or perhaps worse," he described.

The lights

One early morning in May 1966, while an intense garúa fell on the rural area, Gerardo prepared to go look for the cows and prepare them for the dairy farm. It was approximately 1.30 a.m.

"The first night I went out with a mare ("La Tuerta") and, while I was preparing the cattle, a white light – the likes of which I have never seen in my life – invaded everything. The whole field lit up and there the cows got up and headed alone towards the milking place. I didn't look out of fear," he described.

"The same thing happened two more nights, until the fourth where the intensity was greater," added Scharff, who said that he always told his boss, but that he never believed him.

"A week later this happened again, but it was different, I began to feel a strange sound and an even more powerful, more intense light; It's like grabbing a flashlight and holding it close to you. I felt a buzzing sound, like when one hits a honeycomb and a ship landing in front of me. It is a flying saucer of approximately 20 meters long by 8 meters wide. Today I call them "ship" and "flying saucer", but at that time I didn't know how to describe it. I was a child who grew up in poverty, who only knew the radio and had no explanation for that," he argued.

At that moment, when the ship was already in contact with the earth, the boy saw how a hatch opened and a light invaded everything. From the door, a long, tall, white being with four fingers said several things to him telepathically, but two very particular ones: "Come" and "Don't be afraid." The voice that spoke to him, today Scharff, cannot define whether it is a man's or a woman's.

"I wanted to escape, and I started to hit the mare with my heels, but she didn't want to come out [...] at that moment they named me: "Gerardo" they told me... and I slacked off a little."

And there, in the midst of the helplessness of poverty and hunger, Scharff headed for a staircase of lights that hardened with every step.

Inside

"When I entered the ship I saw two more beings, all sitting as if they were ready to fly. They were located in seats - which I had never seen and never saw again - with buttons on the armrests [...] when I wanted to turn around to leave there was no longer a door," he recalled.

At that moment, the words he was expressing from his mouth stopped. A powerful headache succumbed to the young man who began to communicate with beings telepathically ("That's how they talked to each other and also to me").

"Inside there was a table all lit and the floor was soft, padded like a carpet," he stressed, although he assured: "What is inside the ship I cannot fully describe, they were as far ahead as 2 million years ahead... I have no doubt that maybe they are from the future."

In dialogue with El Diario, Scharff narrated how he fed himself ("Through a huge tube, similar to a bottle that tasted like strawberries") and said he was not aware of the moments when he slept. Similarly, due to the number of activities they carried out, he estimates that they spent about ten days in flight.

"(They, telepathically), asked me about everything: my life, what I did, why I was there and so on," he added. They also told him secrets of what is to come: hidden issues in the Vatican and World War III.

In that context – inside the warehouse – there were things that appeared and disappeared from one moment to the next: seats, elements and hoses.

"I saw huge stones, about the size of a house," Scharff said, and it was assumed to have been in the asteroid belt. He also saw Saturn and also the planet Earth and the Moon at the same time.

"When we went down, on a trip, the Earth was like talcum powder. In the skies I saw a planet the same color as the Moon, but a little darker, and beyond that, there was another planet that was like brick-colored, reddish. Then, they – seeing that I couldn't breathe – made me walk until I could start breathing. I remember feeling my stomach turn upside down... I don't know if that place was a planet or what," he recalled and remarked: "Something I remember is that I also saw some initials on the ship that I don't know what they mean. But yes, you are going to see the ship or them when they decide," he said.

"When I realized I was standing, sitting, flying or somewhere else.... They told me not to be afraid and, in short, they manage you, you can't do anything," Scharff stressed.

"At that time you didn't know anything, not even the date, the day or the president and I saw (many years before) the color television through the monitors they had inside the ship, even the video calls."

Scharff also claimed to have spent about four hours observing the city of these celestial beings: "They got out, but they opened the window and from there I saw everything. I saw two ships just like the one we were on, others different and some that seemed to be combat ships. The floor was lead colored," he detailed and added: "There were also beings like them, but not the same color, but skin color."

The beings, which were first three, ended up being seven (one of them smaller, who was the one who became the most buddy with Scharff).

"At first, you are afraid because you don't know where you are, you don't know what they are going to do to you. But I was calm when the little boy appeared. They always walked with their right arm and with a movement of their heads. They did not run or have violent attitudes," he said. "As soon as I entered, they handled my head right away and I became "friends"—somehow... I gained confidence, since I went and walked in a warehouse that had no walls... it was like from another dimension."

On one occasion, the interviewee recalls, he appeared naked and lying on a stretcher with needles: "I don't know how it happened, you can't resist... they manage you," he says. At that point, he specified that beings did not understand the concept of "clothing." "I was dressed in a large jacket, a woman's jacket and half-calf boots," he recalled.

The return

But what, at first, generated fear in him, ended up getting him used to it and the moment of farewell was terrible. Seeing our planet from the window, young Gerardo understood that he was going to return. "You have to go back because you belong here," Gerado says a celestial being told him. That being, in addition, assured him that he should not comment on this until he turned 68 years old. In this context, two years ago, Jorge Gorno, a local ufological researcher, contacted him and the story that is published today on this page was born.

Scharff doesn't remember much of his return, only that at one point – when he became conscious again – he was on top of his animal.

"Jorge found out before my wife [...] I told her once that I was going to have a contact, but she didn't believe me," Scharff stressed.

But to remember everything again, in addition to keeping his secret, the taxi driver had to regress with the specialist Néstor Berlanda, a huge paranormal investigator who travels the world.

Those 10 days of travel were (in Earth times) four hours. This is because, when he returned, the ranch boss was looking for him and had gone out on top of his vehicle to tour the area. At that time neither he nor the mare were there... everything remained a mystery. Although Scharff also assures that his skipper, on another occasion, saw lights in the sky.

"I never spoke of Martians or extraterrestrials, but of celestial beings, because that's what they told me they are called," he stressed.

Excited, thinking about what is coming and assuring that there are many secrets to be revealed, he closed: "They are going to come back and we are all going to see them."

_____________________________________________________________________

I think that this is a perfect example of what I previously referred to in a post. Waiting decades to report and encounter but then parts seem to be taken from UFO shows and books from the 1980s on. There is absolutely no evidence that anything Gerardo claims happened actually did happen.

As soon as I read and heard about the psychological and physiological stress Gerardo was under at such a young age I wondered whether this was not so much a hoax as a memory to cover up what he went through as a youngster? Deliberate hoax or psychological? If I went by his account I would have to point out all of the inconsistencies which are not hard to find. I just cannot see that, as he got older and UFOs became far more accepted in Latin America that he still felt the encounter needed to be kept quiet -there was money that could be made and in the life he has described living that would have come in handy.

His claims fall into the Contactee category but with added in Greys types and modern UFO report details.

Psychological or simply a hoax? It could be a little of both.

Alien Finger Prints in Iran -1978

Unfortunately, due to historical events in Iran, this story could never be followed up although -going by rumour here- it is said that men from a US government agency (CIA) took a report back to the United States so I assume also copies of the "non human" fingerprints.

Here is the kicker; a similar type entity has been reported before elsewhere but far more detail is needed before a comparison could be made.

On A 1940s Desert Highway

While I ponder the mystery of why this blog has over 81K views world wide and yet not a single copy of the CE3K/Entity books will sell......

I am still looking at a report mentioned by Donald Keyhoe in one of his books. I think it was likely trashed and CUFOS in the United States has no Keyhoe correspondence and no one knows where it all went.

Basically, between 1947-1950, a seemingly respectable couple were driving along a desert highway and "claim they were kidnapped" by entities from a UFO. Keyhoe wrote in a tone that made it clear how crazy he thought this sounded (so who did he think was piloting his flying saucers from space?!!)

This is important for a number of reasons.

1. Based on recorded testimony there appear to have been several on board UFO experiences between 1947-1951 well before Antonio Villas Boas (1957) and the Hills (1961) which debunkers continuously state (incorrectly) "created the UFO abduction myth".

2. 1947 was far from a time when "everyone" knew about flying saucers. This factor as well as that Boas and the Hills could not have influenced people over a decade before their encounters adds strength to a report.

3. Keyhoe himself confirms that this was a post(?) 1947 account sent to him in a letter so the account was known about (but dismissed) at the time. This is not someone who "waited" 50, 60 or even 70 years to speak out about their experience which was not even documented in a diary or any form of private document at the time that could be analysed.

4. It would be the first (known) reported on board experience from the United States and that would make it a big and very important footnote in history.

Although I am still trying I suspect that the letter was probably "junked" as later ones might have been if others had not taken the lead at NICAP.

Here is the quote and I thank "UFOnauter" for poking my memory on this (I had forgotten): Fying Saucers From Outer Space", page 224:

"Letters from readers of my book and articles gave me another cross-section. Most of those who had seen saucers were soberly concerned, though only a few admitted any fear. Some showed the effect of certain scare stories published since *47. One of these stories reported that a nurse and a salesman, driving along a desert road, had been kidnapped by spacemen."

If anyone has any leads or if people in the US know that the account may have been printed somewhere else at the time PLEASE let me know!
