History’s Most Famous Alien Abduction Began As A Montreal Honeymoon


Jacques Vallee giving the WRONG facts again.
Ufologists did not advise the Hills to undergo hypnosis. And they are changing details. Not one of the people taking part in this has any credibility.

"It's Standing there right in front of you: an alien -why can't you see it??"



 "There! Right there over by that tree -how can you not see it?!"

The investigator looked. He squinted. He could see nothing even though it was a clear, bright evening but the person with him was definitely concerned about what he was seeing -his face and body language showed that.

The man relaxed but still looked in the direction pointed out to the investigator. "It's gone. Just suddenly vanished"

Another investigator was talking to a percipient in a UFO encounter when the man went pale, stopped talking and stared at a spot near a table in his living room. "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" the investigator asked. The man replied: "Over by the table. One of them materialised -look!" There was nothing there so the investigator got up and walked to the table and the percipient told him the entity was in front of him and so the investigator held up his hand and asked "How many fingers am I holding up?" The man leant to one side "I can't see -it is in front of you" It was, apparently, a solid figure that the investigator could not see and every time he reached out to where the percipient said the entity was it simply moved out of the way. Suddenly there was a flash of light and the entity was gone. The investigator saw nothing.

In both of these cases the percipients were held in high esteem in the local community, held good jobs and had normal family lives and one had even asked his doctor to help him see a psychiatrist. He did. The percipient was perfectly normal.



A woman going about some house work goes to take some washing upstairs to an airing closet and looks as the sunlight coming through the landing window. Distracted by dropping a pair of socks she notes the sunlight was now blocked. Looking up to the top of the landing she saw a tall, human looking entity dressed in an all covering silver suit and "fish bowl" type helmet. They stare at each other for about a minute before the woman asks "Who are you?" The entity turns and vanishes. This happens on several occasions in different parts of the house. The woman had no history of mental health issues and after a while the entity stopped appearing. This was no mere apparition -the entity had blocked sunlight as well as objects behind it from her sight.

A couple driving a long a road in the UK at around 2130hrs one fine summer evening encounter no real traffic and their conversation is in short bursts. The woman looks out through the windscreen of the car and there, solid and blocking out her view, were the large head and shoulders looking in at her as though studying her. The veins noted on its large head could be clearly seen and there was movement. She turned to her husband who was still casually driving, checking his rear view mirror and obviously not seeing anything in front of the windscreen. The woman looked back and the entity was still there but not long after simply vanished. The woman looked at her husband: "What was that?" she asked him. He looked at her with a puzzled expression: "What was what -was it an animal in the road?" It turned out he had not seen the entity. The woman was perfectly normal and her husband had never questioned her mental state before. In private he stated: "If my wife says she saw something then she saw something -I just have no idea why I didn't!"

In the United States a woman hears an odd sound from outside her home so goes to check and on opening her porch door sees a brief flash of light. then, at the corner of the house she sees a 7-8 feet tall hairy humanoid -Bigfoot. Again, a perfectly sane and normal woman.

A person living in a fairly modern build home begins to hear the sound of foot steps moving around it but he/she is the only person in the house. Then there is the sound of conversation -quiet and nothing can be made out of what is being said. A small light is observed one night but it vanishes in a second or two. This scenario encompasses a number of reports from around the world and in some (but not all) the person involved may find themselves paralysed -in bed or while sleeping in a chair or on a sofa. They may also see some vague shape. When they suddenly find themselves able to move the event gets less clear in their mind.



In the latter cases the paranormal fraternity with their years of experience of watching You tube paranormal (fake) shows and reading trash paranormal books will explain that the house is haunted. No one else affected? Then it is a spirit "attached" to the person involved. Of course, since the 1990s there have been no traditional ghosts -it's all demons, hostile spirits, gateways or portals to Hell and so on and so forth. The person involved is now going to be put through mental trauma because wholly unscientific and untrained people who just love to dress in all black tell them this. 

The Ufologists, learning qualifications the same as the paranormal folk (who they look down on as "poor relations") , will explain that like many, many thousands -possibly millions- of people have undergone an alien abduction experience and has probably done so since a child and, oh, "do you by any chance have a scar from childhood you cannot remember how you got?" That person will now have their lives ruined and, as with the paranormal people, once the report and details are sorted so the articles and ("oooh, I hope") the book written or "investigation video" posted.... interest lost even though the "If anything new happens let us know" line is always given.



Of course you have the Ufologists "We need to get you under regression hypnosis -it's safe and very scientific" and then the situation, for the person involved, goes down the toilet. "You ARE an alien abductee but their mind block is so tight we cannot find out what happened!"

None of the people involved are "mental cases" -you even think that then you need to leave the fringe field you are involved in. There was a very well studied case in the 1970s -an American woman living in the UK- and the woman involved thought she was going insane. As it turned out some American psychologists had also had similar cases. Tests at a university proved that what the woman saw as a solid entity WAS to her solid and blocked out anything it passed in front of. But there was nothing there.

To go over what I termed "Ruth Syndrome" would take a few very long blog posts. However, I have given all the references and other factors in my book. Ruth Syndrome does not mean that every alien abduction, Bigfoot or "ghost" sighting are "all in the mind". The experience is confined to one person and their mind and reality. The husband driving the car never saw the entity but noted how shaken his wife was. The Syndrome also encompasses what the tabloids and media like to call "ghost sex cases" -I was consulted on at least two of these in the 1970s. 

These people are not fantasy prone characters either. What we are seeing is the brain creating a reality and the cause(s) are not yet known and not everyone has these events and we always like to say that someone, or some peoples, minds are "wired different". Betty and Barney Hill -not Ruth Syndrome. The three women in the Liberty, Kentucky case -not Ruth Syndrome. It is easy to employ this explanation for a debunker who has not actually looked at a case as a whole and that is their own particular level of ignorance.

What we need to do is realise that there are many psychological or psycho-physiological explanations for Entity encounters and those need to be ruled out. We then need to look at whether Ruth Syndrome might be involved.



Mrs A observed a UFO and then encountered an entity and after that encounter everything was back to normal.  Several neighbours spotted a strange light near the percipient's home and a large flattened area of grass was found outside the home. That is a physical event and not what you might want to incorrectly term an "altered state of consciousness" and it certainly is not Ruth Syndrome. 

You sort out which cases are which -and I think in many cases an altered state of consciousness and Ruth Syndrome- then you can concentrate on the ones where there is actual physiological and even trace evidence. If you clump all of the reports into one category then it is a case of Bad Data Input =Bad Date Output.  This is why UFO cases are such a mess; no one has bothered separating hoaxes, natural phenomenon, misidentification and so on all are clumped into the category of "UFO".  When I did just this reports research, analysis and separation back in 1980 it was very clear on the first day that so much was mixed up.

Look at M. Maurice Masse at Valensole, France. Perfect candidate for Ruth Syndrome. You then find out that there was physical trace evidence and other unusual activity in the area at and around that time.  That rules out Ruth Syndrome.


above: Maurice Masse at Valennsole

above: the Marius Dewilde encounter

Marius Dewilde had an encounter that could have been altered state or even Ruth Syndrome and yet there was physical evidence that something had taken place. Again indicating that something happened in the real world sense (I deal with the Masse and Dewilde cases in my book and explain why I believe that Dewilde did encounter something -Ufologists and debunkers ignored evidence so that they could easily explain the case away).

I doubt very much whether my books or work will change Ufology which is geared up to support money making hucksters who bring UFO organisations and conventions money and a lot of TV coverage.  Thomas Mantell was NOT shot down by a flying saucer: fact. The UFO hucksters state he was. They know he was because they just read a UFO book and it's what the media likes to call a "sexy story" -it sells and the public will believe anyone who is credited as "veteran UFO researcher" because they want that hit of fantasy in their lives.

Whether British "Big Cat" investigators, ghost hunters, Bigfoot hunters, Ufologists or any other fringe field 99% of those involved have no real knowledge of their subject but they say the right thing to TV and news people.

When it comes to UFOs the data needs sorting. That will never happen.

When it comes to alleged cases of alien abduction it needs to be established which are physically real in the sense of being solid objects and entities encountered and which are physically real in the sense that some people are "wired a different way" and only they see or interact with this reality. Not any form of mental illness or "kookiness". Just as some people see music as colours and some people can go into sensory overload when there is a smell that others hardly notice these are all normal human beings.

John E. Mack | UFO Physician | Life, Death, & Personality




There are some good points here but also a stuffed shirt attitude. Mack believing in alien-human hybrids did NOT mean or involve "lizard people" which clearly shows this fella has a limited knowledge of the subject. 

What struck me was that he reverted to the old sleep paralysis explanation for all alien abductions. Yes, in the case of the Hopkins created "Greys" narrative there are many reports that indicate sleep paralysis.  However, how would sleep paralysis explain away the alleged abduction of three women driving home at Liberty, Kentucky?  How would it explain away the Hills case. There are many other examples where sleep paralysis does not work. Again, it shows the man's lack of knowledge and understanding that alleged alien abductions are in fact rarer than most believe.  

I was also shocked that he never dealt with altered reality states for which there is a lot research (not Ufological but medical professional). Also, if you read my book UFO Contact? I explained what I have termed "Ruth Syndrome" and this is not based on one case but there were a number being looked into by psychologists and described in print. This explains a large number of UFO abduction claims and I am preparing a brief post on this.

Again, however, Liberty, Kentucky and the Hills alleged encounters cannot be explained away as "Ruth Syndrome". There are a core of cases in which there are secondary and third party observers to a UFO at the time of an alleged abduction and in the same area/time. There are also radar data. There are signs of radiation sickness to varying degrees as well as other effects -psychological, trace evidence and so on.Although these are not 100% evidence of alien-human interaction they are evidence that something took place that we cannot mundanely explain away.

A farmer out for a walk on a cold damp morning and hundreds of miles from any nuclear facility let alone hospitals or facilities  where there may be radioactive materials stored is very unlikely to be exposed to radiation and suffer radiation sickness after being found semi conscious or in a state of mental/physical shock. And if the person(s) who found that farmer also observed what appeared to be a solid constructed craft (as opposed to a light phenomenon that may be unknown at this point in time) leaving the area...do we say "altered state" or "Oh, that was sleep paralysis!"?

Yes, I believe John Mack was gullible in his beliefs and I think Hopkins and Jacobs fed him what they knew he wanted to hear. However, he was also a very poor researcher on the subject. Well known hoaxers were "genuine" because "Why would he lie?"

The High Priests of Alien Abductions have all fallen badly yet are still praised as pioneering champions. Budd Hopkins -discussed on this blog before for his stacking the decks with false evidence and even presenting a hoaxer as a genuine abductee after he knew she was not. Jacobs..he lost the plot completely and I am unsure whether he actually believes what he writes and says or does so as it is a money maker and it also helps him with his sexual fantasies (as noted on a number of blogs and videos).

I really had hopes that I could prove Mack was just being misrepresented or misquoted but the more I see and hear I find he was not. So an analysis of Mack and his career are fine  but to sit po-faced and dryly misrepresent alleged alien abductions then discredits the presenter. But in the world of Ufology where the hucksters are constantly promoted even after being exposed....let psychology show itself up.

Long interview of Dr. John Mack with 2 girls who witnessed a creature fr...


Never seen this before and it is different o how presented in texts. 

Mack is more or less leading the narrative and at points the girls look and sound like they are having fun and actually exaggerating. The one remaining High Priests of Abductions is proving to be as flawed as Hopkins and Jacobs. 

Depressing.
