Somewhere in the Skies - The Greys: 4 Terrifying Alien Encounters from UFO Reddit

Episode Date: September 11, 2026

Ryan and Suzanne are joined by Dan Zetterstrom of What it Means to Be Human podcast to dig into the strangest corners of Reddit to explore four extraordinary firsthand accounts involving one of the m...ost iconic and unsettling figures in UFO lore: the Greys. They Came Out of the Woods: A witness awakens outside their home beneath a hovering saucer, only to watch several small Greys emerge from the woods and approach before everything goes blank. We Haven’t Seen You in a While: A five-year-old awakens to find a Grey peering from inside their closet and receives a chilling telepathic invitation suggesting this may not be their first encounter. We Saw a Grey in Hawaii... Then Lost 15 Hours: A couple vacationing in Kauai encounters a towering Grey outside their elevated patio, only to inexplicably forget the experience until the terrifying memory suddenly returns a year later. I Possessed a Dog During an Alien Abduction: A bizarre alleged abduction begins with a Grey performing an invasive procedure and unfolds into fragmented memories of hybrid children, telepathic tests, strange entities, military personnel and the witness apparently entering and controlling the body of a dog.

So, oh, man, I just can't shake this. But you know what? I don't care because we got UFO Reddit to do. and we have two very special guests with us. One of them is your co-host, as always, the one and only Suzanne Landers. Welcome back. Hi, greetings.
Starting point is 00:04:16 Greetings, greetings. Should we say hello to our special guest who is literally on the road right now? We're going to get a little road trip with him, aren't we? We are. You ready? It's going to be like first person. Like, we're driving. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:04:31 There he is. Dan Zetterstrom, who's, who's, muted the polite gentleman there he is hello everybody yeah you're seeing my view from the road I am in Indiana I've driven from L.A. about 1,800 miles 30 hours with breaks it's been a long trip but it's been incredible
Starting point is 00:04:53 seeing in the environment change and so I thought it'll be cool if everyone can just see what I sees you know a little bit of nature in their day absolutely man actually when the when the intro was playing there I saw you with a police vehicle. I thought you got pulled over for a second then. That was interesting.
Starting point is 00:05:11 There was a crash. It would be very exciting. Yeah, that would be good. There was a crash and maybe 10 minutes before that I saw a truck on fire and I had to like creep past it. The cop was like, move over, you know, I was like, please don't explode. Yeah, really. That's just what you need. I'm sure you've seen quite some stuff being on the road that long.
Starting point is 00:05:33 Absolutely. My favorite of which was kind of childish, that there was a chocolate factory that was called, the signs were really leaning into the Uranus jokes. So they were like, visit Uranus Chocolate Factory, explore Uranus Chocolate Factory. I was like, they know what they're doing. They know what they're doing.
Starting point is 00:05:55 Yeah, yeah, you got to stop. Dude, a chocolate factor? I, where are you? Like, Willy Wonka Land? What is that? I mean, middle America, you know, you're probably not far off as places. So true. So true, my friend.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Well, we're very happy to have you with us tonight. Again, like, we know you're driving. So if anything happens or you need to, you know, stop, please feel free. But everyone in the chat is saying hello as well. But yeah, guys, should we kind of just dive in? Dan, you know the deal, right? We kind of told you offline here. we just read Reddit UFO stories.
Starting point is 00:06:38 Absolutely. It's a great format because so many different great stories come from Reddit. Even things that people bring up constantly as part of the law, you know, that 4chan kind of stuff broke out on Reddit about the underwater bases reproducing these tic tic tics and things like that. It's a rich repository. It absolutely is, man. And like, you know, you know as well as we do.
Starting point is 00:07:02 There's some pretty bad stuff on. read it but um i think every now and again you can really uh you can find some gold and i think we did tonight with these stories uh they're a little a little out there i'm not going to lie but i thought you know we'll go story by story and we'll kind of just uh debrief on them get thoughts theories if we believe them or not and we'll include the live chat as well and uh take it from there sound good guys sounds good to me sounds great all right so we're going to start with story tonight and it is titled They Came Out of
Starting point is 00:07:37 the Woods. This came from the Experiencers subreddit from the user Eagle S Fan 05. So yeah, Suzanne should I start? Go for it, yeah. All right.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Get my speaker voice on here. Here we go. This is from Eagles Fan 05. The first thing I remember is standing outside in the middle of the night. I could hear a steady rainfall as I looked around somewhat aimlessly. There was a tree line to my left that tapered off into total darkness. I'm usually terrified of the dark, but in that moment, I felt no emotions, no fear, no anything. I turned to my right
Starting point is 00:08:21 and could just make out the blue siding of my house. My eyes trailed up until the outer frame of my bedroom window came into view. I slowly became more aware and began to process things. a little bit more clearly. Let me see here. Oh, here we go. I was standing on the side yard of my house just outside of my bedroom. It's a fairly narrow space,
Starting point is 00:08:48 maybe four feet wide of grass before the tree begins. Tree line begins. I've lived in my house for 15 years and can't remember having walked here at night for any reason. It took me a moment for something to finally click.
Starting point is 00:09:03 It was raining, but I wasn't getting wet. I could hear it falling around me but felt nothing. I remember slowly looking up and freezing. Hovering about 40 feet above me was a large saucer-like craft. As soon as I noticed, it began to slowly lift up to about 30 to 45 degree angle. The side, closer to my house, tilted down. The craft had rotating red and green lights in the outer middle section, a slight boxy area that seemingly trailed around the entirety of the craft.
Starting point is 00:09:37 It looked like if you were to cut a conventional flying saucer in half and add a more rigid and boxy component in between. Behind the lights, the rest of the craft that I could see was a metallic silver color. The craft rose up slowly before it seemed to pause, the angle flattened slightly as it hovered in place. I stared on, my eyes trailing the rotating lights as they disappeared around it with each cycle moving from left to right. I'm unsure how long I was watching, almost like in a daydream like state,
Starting point is 00:10:10 before a sound in the woods snapped me out of it. I quickly glanced down to my left, my mind suddenly flooding with different emotions as I hear something walking. I felt my body tense for the first time as I watched several small gray creatures emerge from the woods. They were no more than four feet tall and moved more or less like a human wood, walking upright. One moved ahead with at least three others trailing side by side behind them. The one in front, the one who I saw the best, had a small frame in relation to their head. Their torso was fairly narrow, though any details were obscured by the darkness of the woods and likely the craft above.
Starting point is 00:10:55 Their head was slightly bowed as they stepped over a branch, raising their leg up, up higher than you would expect a human to do, like a child stepping over something in a slightly exaggerated or even unfamiliar manner. That's interesting. Yeah. My emotions continued to flood through me, the sudden onset jarring and overwhelming, as I watched the front, most gray, lift its head up and look towards me. Their head was rounded like a human, but more elongated towards the upper back.
Starting point is 00:11:28 It was overall slightly larger than an average fully grown adult's head, though it looked bigger in proportion with its stature. I did not get a great look at the rest of their head beyond the eyes, and I don't want to come off as speculative. Interesting. Like a human, they had two eyes that were positioned in similar fashion. Their eyes, however, were several times larger than a human's. They were slightly more rounded, but entirely black. Their eyes seemed almost, quote, empty. a sense. It's difficult to describe. They just seemed somewhat lifeless. I remember making eye contact
Starting point is 00:12:05 and instantly going rigid. I felt my body tense an unbelievable amount, but I could not move. It was like I was a passenger in my own body, conscious and aware, but unable to physically control myself. I watched them move towards me for another second or so, but I don't remember anything beyond this. Wow. And that's it. I tell you that the empty eye thing, I don't think I've ever heard that. I've heard the opposite where they look into the dark eyes and it's almost like looking
Starting point is 00:12:39 deep into the galaxy or there comes a feeling of well-being, you're okay kind of thing, or the other end, sheer terror. I have never heard nothing. You get nothing. Yeah. Face. Fascinating. That was fascinating.
Starting point is 00:12:57 The other thing, too, that really set out to me was, like, the stepping over the branch. Like, it had, like, really long kind of, I don't know, really. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was pretty interesting to you. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. And coming out of the woods, nothing creepier, right, Dan?
Starting point is 00:13:14 No. Right. Yeah, absolutely. It's not driving through the woods right now to set up. I know. I was. Yeah. We were close.
Starting point is 00:13:25 I think it's so interesting, like in this story, the Redditor went into so much depth of like describing the beings, which is really, you know, cool. But then it's like, and then I don't remember anything after that. Yeah. And I'm like, oh, my gosh. Like, what happened? What happened? It would be so frustrating, wouldn't it? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:49 So frustrating. I'm afraid I would have to take the risk on some hypnotic regression. I think I would have to know. Yeah, yeah. I don't know. What do you think, Dan? What did you make of this story? That was great.
Starting point is 00:14:02 It had a lot of detail. A lot of feeling as well. I find when people convey feeling in these situations, it gives it an air of, you know, genuine kind of experience versus you can kind of tell when an experience is somewhat shallow. And they may be, you know, repeating details they've heard or something like that. The feeling in the moment is something that states, you forever when you experience something anomalous. So it was cool to hear that it had the whole
Starting point is 00:14:31 tilting thing, the morphology of the craft was interesting, a little bit different, you know, boxiness to it. And then with the alien beings like moving in that kind of, I don't know, I almost imagine the old John Cleese faulty towers walk, you know, the legs kind of gone up and far out. And it feels somewhat playful. So, I'm curious about that. It has all the right elements. However, I do want to know, you know, they say, that's all I remember. I'm like, well, you woke up at some point and, you know, you lived your life to get to this point
Starting point is 00:15:03 where you're posting this story. So where did you wake up? What happened, you know? Right. You know, now that I'm thinking about it, let me just double check. I'm going to go to the original post and see if they did like an update or anything. Oh, okay. I like this.
Starting point is 00:15:19 Live kind of diving into them. I like it's. Yeah. Let's see. I love about this story, guys. I love when an experience sets a limit on what they know and they will not step over the line
Starting point is 00:15:32 for what they are not sure of or that they don't know. And this Reddit users did that. Yeah. Betty Hill, of the Betty and Barney Hill adventure, I guess. That's what we'd call it. She did the same. She would not let
Starting point is 00:15:48 a journalist take her farther than she could confirm herself and her story. And so to me, that brings of credibility. Yeah. Yeah. The other interesting thing, too, is like, he said it was raining now, but none of the rain was hitting him.
Starting point is 00:16:02 Like, what the hell is that all about? I think he was under the craft. Oh, you think that was it? I think the craft was over him. Who knows, but that's how I interpreted what was being said. We could also be looking at that whole, you know, space time bubble thing. Supposedly, the craft kind of have modes that they switch between, you know, atmospheric to interdimensional jumping or whatever you would call it you know war drive i guess would be
Starting point is 00:16:27 the colloquial way um and and we get those reports of you know a bubble being around the craft and if you're inside that bubble the closer you are you experience kind of more extreme time dilation because this thing is outside of time and that's what it's doing you you know so you step into there and feel no rain maybe maybe that's what it is maybe this person was within the field it would also explain why they can't really remember anything because you know if you're outside of a protective area and you're in a bubble free of time your body is going to have in trouble working properly because you know our heart beats are based on a linear experience of time one beat two beat three b you know you take that away and suddenly it's one bit freeze and that's kind of a problem
Starting point is 00:17:10 yeah absolutely absolutely um so i'm not finding any like updates in terms of like what they remember this. However, the Redditor did go on to respond to some people and said that they were big into meditating at the time. So is it possible that like the meditation had something to do with this? They said like, I wasn't religious or anything like that, but I got really into meditation and like not soon after is when this event happened. So did it like pull it in? Was it like a magnet to it? I don't know. Like Dan, you meditate, don't you? Yeah. Oh, yeah, that's part of the CE5 process is to do grounding meditation first and then a visual version of it in your mind where you're sending your consciousness out into deep space and back pinpointing your location in your mind and theoretically sharing it. So that link is probably established for this user.
Starting point is 00:18:14 Yeah, you know, I've been getting a lot into meditation. with my paranormal investigations. And it certainly helps. You know, when I'm with the three girls who I do the show with, we meditate together for like 20, 30, sometimes 40 minutes to an hour before an investigation. And I will tell you, nothing gets you more in tune with three mediums and channelers than meditating for an hour.
Starting point is 00:18:44 And it produced a lot of stuff. So I do believe that. I honestly do. Interesting. Interesting stuff. And just to throw my hat in the ring, I'm the same as you guys. Suzanne will know I teach remote viewing classes occasionally. For free if anyone's interested, you know, just keep an eye on my social media.
Starting point is 00:19:05 But during that, I've now added a meditation at the beginning for people to just kind of get in the zone. And I say, you know, light a candle, turn the lights off. Like we're going to kind of just get in tune with our bodies for a second. tends to produce better results. I think so too. That's interesting, Dan. I want to take one of those courses, man.
Starting point is 00:19:24 That is so fascinating. I'd love to have you, man. That sounds awesome. Next one. He's on a little hiatus right now, but... I love that. Yes, yes. Cool, guys.
Starting point is 00:19:37 Anything else about this story before we move on to Story 2? No, we're ready for Story 2? Let's do it. The only thing I'd say about is the the dead eyes, like Suzanne said, that's not a common detail. And it makes me think of the whole automaton angle. You know, these things don't have souls. Right.
Starting point is 00:19:56 Right, right, right. Yep. Yeah, no soul. I'm looking at my little gray right here. This guy has no soul. That's for damn sure. Yeah. Wow, yeah, good point, Dan.
Starting point is 00:20:07 Yeah, that was a big thing. You both mentioned that. The lifeless eyes. Never heard it. Yeah. Never heard it. All right. Well, here comes.
Starting point is 00:20:16 story to fellows if we're ready. Okay, let's do it. This one's called We Haven't Seen You in a while, and it's from user Light Skinned 247. Okay. All right, I had just turned five in 1995 when I had an encounter with a gray. It kicked, started a lifetime of paranormal experiences in which I've seen and communicated with craft made of light. I've seen other things physically manifest and experienced a whole trove of strange mystical happenings. Overall, I'm very spiritual, but I have no knowledge of anything that could have impacted me negatively. The only lasting change I've noticed is that to this day, I still can't go to sleep unless my closet is completely closed. Yeah, interesting. The importance of my age is that I had absolutely no concept or
Starting point is 00:21:12 understanding of what a gray alien was supposed to look like. I know what this feels like. I was so little when I had mine and said I didn't know what a UFO was. At the same time, the only aliens I knew were from Predator and E.T. My childhood bedroom had a bunk bed and I slept on the bottom bunk. The eldest brother had already left for college, so I had been sleeping alone for a while and hadn't watched anything considered scary. I'm not sure what time it was, but I suddenly woke up extremely alert staring at the street light outside my window. The moment I realized how unusually quiet everything was, which was strange because I lived on a busy road and an old creaky house, the street light went out. The room felt darker than normal and though
Starting point is 00:22:00 barely any light was coming from the houses or the other streetlights outside. My body immediately went into fight or flight mode, and I, I felt an incredibly strong presence around me. I looked around the room and noticed the right side of my closet was open. I was a very particular child and I always made sure that the doors, drawers and closet were completely closed before bed. The darkness inside the closet made me panic even more because it seemed darker than any other shadow in the room. I rubbed my eyes in disbelief and when my hands dropped, the entire right closet door was open. I know. I know. I try, he's just as a little fellow to be dealing with this.
Starting point is 00:22:44 No. Right? I tried to speak or shout, but I realized I couldn't hear my own voice. I hid beneath the covers for a moment, and then I looked again. Half of a face was peeking from behind the wall inside the closet. It was extremely pale and smooth, with very thin mouth that barely seemed to have lips. Its expression was neutral, but its enormous black eyes seemed to match the darkness of the closet. Terrified, I hit under the covers. When I quickly pulled them down, the face had moved to the
Starting point is 00:23:17 center of the closet. After all, my panicked movement, we were now directly facing each other. That's when I began receiving what I can only describe as impressions or telepathic communication. There was a feeling of familiarity and excitement. It's so interesting to me. Yeah. Accompanied by thoughts or more actually. accurately knowings like, quote, we haven't seen you in a while, close quote. Quote, would you like to come with us, question mark, close quote, and quote, let's play, close quote. I know.
Starting point is 00:23:55 My response was pretty innocent. Internally, I simply said, no, thank you. I get it. I'm thinking not. No, thank you. I don't want to go with you, the reader says. I was absolutely freaking out because it continued to silently stare at me. The presence in the room became incredibly intense, and I suddenly had the fear that it was going to leave the closet and move toward me.
Starting point is 00:24:23 I was shaking, but it also felt as though my entire body, even the room itself, were vibrating. As the sensations grew stronger, I screamed internally, please go away, please go away, please go away, and I covered my eyes with my blanket. after repeating it several times, the intense fear suddenly subsided, and when I looked again, the face had moved back to peeking halfway out. I repeated, please go away beneath the blanket. The next time I looked, the closet was partially closed, but the face was still there. I did it again, and the face was gone, with the closet only slightly open. One more time, and when I looked again, the closet was completely closed.
Starting point is 00:25:08 Then the street lights suddenly came back on and I immediately passed out. It's so common. So common. I'm not sure what happened after that. I like to think the innocent nature of children combined with some kind of free law, some kind of law of free will, help me that night. I don't even remember falling asleep. It's almost as though I blacked out from exhaustion or the sudden feeling of safety when the light turned on.
Starting point is 00:25:36 but that experience was only the beginning of what felt like numerous attempts at contact throughout my life. Since then, I've had encounters involving different kinds of crafts, spiritual and mystical experiences, extremely vivid dreams, sleep paralysis, and periods of missing time. I still don't know exactly what to make of any of it, what to do with these experiences, or even where to go with some of them. But I'm beginning to be more public about the parts of my life that, might be considered a little woo-woo. Over the past few months especially, I felt a strong pull to finally be more open about them. Wow, good for this person. I know. Gosh.
Starting point is 00:26:20 Okay, a lot to digest here. I mean... Okay, that going to sleep thing. We were talking about this just last week, Ryan. Right, right, right. That's so crazy that this is a thing that happens. so routinely, I guess, but not kind of if it's routine, but you know what I mean, with some level of consistency. We'll just go to sleep. Yeah, I probably brought it up last week,
Starting point is 00:26:45 but I always go back to Mike Cleland, to the owl guy in my book. I recount a story of his where when he was a kid, not a kid, excuse me, he was a young adult. He looked out his bedroom window and he saw three grays walking towards his home and they got closer and closer. And instead of freaking out, you know, running, hiding, anything like that, all he did is look at them and get back under the covers and he went to sleep.
Starting point is 00:27:13 And who knows what happened after that. But yeah, you're right. This whole like, yeah, going to sleep thing. And then the, you know, this person is saying I suffered sleep paralysis in my life. You know, things. I just don't know. I don't know what to make of that. Like is this all a hypnagogic sort of?
Starting point is 00:27:34 a thing or I don't know. I don't know. What do you guys think? I don't know. Dan, before you pop in, I want to hear what you think, but I have long thought it's such a bad idea to try to interact with humans in the dead of night. We are at our most vulnerable. We are most easily spooked. Can we do this in the daytime? Can we, will we not do it in two in the morning? Vickroy has a good comment here. They said, I think I would get a night job and sleep during the day. Good point, my friend. I'm with Vickroy. I'm with Vigroy.
Starting point is 00:28:10 Yeah. Very good point. But then there are cases where it's security guards in night jobs that see these things. You know, I just, yeah. The time of day does not matter. They seem to they seem to pop up if it's time video. For sure, man. I'm really intrigued by the closet aspect of this
Starting point is 00:28:33 because very often the phenomena presents as kind of like our worst nightmares. So, you know, the thing we're expecting. So when you're a kid, what is the worst nightmare? There's something in the closet. There's a monster in the closet. So I wonder if it kind of emerged from there for those reasons.
Starting point is 00:28:49 Right. Interesting point, Dan, because, you know, the near-death experiencers, most of them have an experience that is in line, primarily with either their religious perspective or their philosophical perspective of what happens after death. So I'm afraid that our alien friends have misinterpreted our comfort level with things going bump in the closet at night. Because that's on nobody's list of things to get.
Starting point is 00:29:19 Yeah. Can we, I want to acknowledge something in this story primarily because it's, it's, troubling to me and um it's this idea of like the gray's being like come on come with us we want to play it's like this very i don't know it's creepy and it's also very like manipulative in some ways i don't know if they're like meaning to do it that way or if they literally are like come with us like we want to play this is our version of playing we're you know we're we're we're fairy We're this, we're that. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:30:01 It's sort of like the Sarah Jessica Parker character and hocus pocus come little children, the times now. She's trying to scoop them up to eat them. Good reference. That's a great reference. That's actually when Ryan was talking about it. I was like, yeah, it's kind of a scale of let's play from post encounters of the third kind all the way to the little girls in the Shining,
Starting point is 00:30:23 you know? And that your example fits right in the middle of it. So that was great. It helped me with my scale. Yes, I like that scale. Yeah, and then like the responses of like, please go away, please go away. No, no, no, no, no thank you. The nice polite, no thank you.
Starting point is 00:30:38 No, thank you. I've heard so many stories of like religious people during encounter experiences or abduction experiences, starting to pray and the experience ends. So now we're really budding up against spirituality and like possible. non-human intelligence encounters or abductions. Do you guys think these things are at all related? I don't know, Dan, what do you think? I think there has to be an element of free will, but I cannot make peace with how it works. Because you do hear these stories where someone says, not for me, please know, and it ends, but you also hear the opposite, where someone says, I don't like it, stop, stop, stop, go away, and nothing changes.
Starting point is 00:31:31 On they go, doing exactly what they came to do. So, I don't know. Yeah. Any thoughts? That's interesting. So I have personal experience with night terrors. So I can kind of speak to this a little bit. And what I'll say is with night terrors, the sense of permission,
Starting point is 00:31:50 like I've never been able to invoke anything to make it go away, except to just let it in and the way out is through kind of thing. and learning to, you know, lucid dream and things like that. There's never been any sense of permission within that. It's just, you know, it's an experience where your brain is a sleeping dream and your body's awake. And those two things don't match. So you kind of experience these things. But there are other elements in it, like the fact that that manifests is really similar experiences across people and cultures throughout time.
Starting point is 00:32:20 And that's kind of crazy. Because if it's just dreaming, why is it that we all dream of the same thing? You know, my mom and I would have it in the same house, and it would always be an old lady in an orange coat. And she would be stood at the bottom of our beds, like white hair. And she would just be watching. And we just, we shared that with each other one day. We're like, oh, my God, like, we're seeing the same thing.
Starting point is 00:32:40 Like, what? That doesn't make any sense. Wow, man. That's crazy. Another than a dream, doesn't it? Right. I may have told this story before, but on a similar note, Dan, and I'll make it brief.
Starting point is 00:32:53 when my grandfather passed away, it was my mom's dad. My mom and I didn't like dream about him at all, ever. Like we'd have dreams about family members, friends, and all that. But he was never there. He was never present in the dreams or anything like that. And I'm talking years past. And I, you know, I was almost forgetting, unless I looked at a photo of like my grandfather's face. And then one random night, I had a dream that we were at a family get together.
Starting point is 00:33:27 And there he was just kind of hanging in the background. And I remember going up to him. And he just like got up, smiled and was about to say something. And then I woke up. And I was so mad that I didn't get to hear what he had to say. But that's not even the thing. I tell my mom this story. And she's like, oh, my God, Ryan.
Starting point is 00:33:48 I had the same exact dream last night where he was at a family get together. he came up to me and then I woke up right before he said anything. We had the same dream, the same gosh darn night about my grandfather, which yeah, that really that really struck accordingly, Dan, that you had a similar experience as well. Wow. Yeah, crazy, crazy. That's nothing to do with the grace, but some pretty interesting stories nonetheless. Well, from what it's worth of a very similar experience, Ryan and Dan.
Starting point is 00:34:19 So I worked in the same building in Memphis where I had my law firm the same building for decades. And the fellow who sort of ran maintenance, he was, you know, would fix anything that got broken. His name was Pete. And I called him Sweet Pete. And he and I really, really liked each other. We were the same age and we kind of grew up together as adults, you know, professionally. And Pete died during the COVID pandemic. And the night he died, I dreamed about him.
Starting point is 00:34:53 And he popped in and he said, hey, Suzanne. And I said, oh, my gosh, Pete, are you okay? He says, I'm great. And he twirls himself around effortlessly, like you would watch a cartoon ghost twirl, kind of. And I said, but his mother, Della, was sick at the same time. And they had both gotten it from the same relative. And this was early in the pandemic. We didn't have vaccines.
Starting point is 00:35:21 We didn't have anything to treat with. And so I said, well, what about your mom? Of course, I'm still standing asleep. What about your mom? And he goes, oh, she's good too, but she's decided she's going to come with me. And so, fine. We talk a minute more. It's over.
Starting point is 00:35:38 I wake up the next morning. And I woke up to a message saying that his mother had died in the night. I think she had decided to go. God. I know. So I think there's something to this that's wholly intangible to us right now to really understand. But I do think there is a thing. You know, and maybe this could be a combat sort of thing against experiences like this that this child had with these beings.
Starting point is 00:36:07 If they are malevolent or doing this, you know, without any emotion or, you know, or, you know, you know, sympathy for the quote-unquote victim. They're doing these things too. I don't know. I don't know. But craziness. Cool. Cool. Anything else, guys, before we moved to Story 3?
Starting point is 00:36:27 No, but now with all these goes, we're going to have to get Jim Harold up in here. I know. Jim will come on. Jim will come on. Oh, before we moved to the next one, did I wake you? Our good friend, Darren, over in Osaka, Japan is joining us tonight. And he says, I would have reoccurring waking nightmares. of a gray grabbing me.
Starting point is 00:36:46 Then I would kick it and I'd wake up with my heart racing. Started about 10 years ago, maybe a dream or sleep paralysis. Oh boy, I'm sorry, man. Me too. That's terrifying. That is terrifying. I've never, in all my years of UFO studies and being entrenched in this topic,
Starting point is 00:37:03 I don't think I've ever had a UFO or alien dream, ever. I don't think I have either. Dan, of you? Yes, yes, I have. But Ryan, I've got to say to you, Is that because you guys have been given screen memories? Oh, boy, I don't. Don't you care.
Starting point is 00:37:22 My mom used to say, you know, when you walk into a room and you forget what you went into the room for? Yeah. My mom used to wind me up and say it's because you encountered a time traveler and they've just wiped your mind so that you don't. You know. I'm going to use that excuse from now on. Oh, another time travel tomorrow. Right. But every time it happens, I'm like, I mean, I don't think.
Starting point is 00:37:43 think so, but maybe, like, I can't say absolutely not, right? Your mom sounds awesome, man. I want to meet her. She's great, yeah. Oh, my gosh. That's awesome. All right. Let's move to story three. I'll read this one because Hawaii is my third, fourth? My fourth home. So this one kind of rung resonated with me a little bit, but this is Story tonight, guys, and it's titled, We Saw a Gray in Hawaii,

So in January of 2015, my husband and I were vacationing in Kauai, staying at a rental in Princeville, overlooking Honolay Bay in the Winea Mountain Range. One evening, while sitting on the patio after sunset, I noticed a strange light suddenly appear in front of the mountain ridge. It was an intensely bright white cube, large enough to illuminate the ridges behind it. Unlike the warm glow of
Starting point is 00:40:47 the sky lantern, its light was unnaturally white, and its movements were even stranger. It would hover motionless, move in perfectly straight lines, left to right, stop, then move vertically up and down. Knowing the Pacific Missile Range facility was beyond the mountains, I wondered if the military might be testing some kind of illuminated drone or craft. I eventually went to bed and woke up a few hours later around dawn. The glass patio doors were visible from the bed, and I immediately had the overwhelming sensation that someone was watching me. When I turned over, I saw something standing outside the patio door, even though our rental was several stories up with no fire escape or obvious way for anyone to get up there. This being was roughly six and a half to
Starting point is 00:41:37 seven feet tall with smooth gray rubbery looking skin in enormous black almond-shaped eyes that wrapped slightly around its head it had no on this i'm so so so you're no i don't want anybody spooking around the window in the middle of a high rise right and this ain't no little gray man seven feet tall this guy so it had no protruding nose only a slit for a mouth and a large bald atop an unusually long neck. Its arms and fingers were longer than humans with large bony knuckles and what appeared to be three main fingers and a thumb. Wow, that's very specific.
Starting point is 00:42:20 Its body was thin, but I couldn't make out ribs, hips, clavicles, or any obvious bones. Terrified, I scrambled over my sleeping husband toward the bathroom, toward the bathroom, rather than getting out of bed closest to the patio. Yeah. Smart. Yeah. Smart. The being leaned forward its head near the glass and slowly turned its head to track me as I moved.
Starting point is 00:42:45 I began yelling my husband's name, shouting something like, quote, there's a thing at the door. There's a thing at the door. Oh, gosh. At the time, the words gray or alien never entered my mind. I could only comprehend it as a thing because it was clearly not human. My husband awoke. He saw the being and nearly fell out of bed before running into the bathroom with me. I slammed.
Starting point is 00:43:12 Yeah. Yeah. I slammed the door and we debated whether to make a run for the stairwell. But we had no idea how the being had reached the patio in the first place or whether it could somehow get inside. So we stayed locked in the bathroom for hours. Oh, my God. When we finally emerged, it was broad day. light and the being was gone. People were outside around the resort and everything appeared normal.
Starting point is 00:43:41 Suddenly overwhelmed by exhaustion, we went back to bed and fell asleep. When we woke later that morning, neither of us remembered what had happened. I was confused that it was nearly noon because I had deliberately gone to bed early to wake up for the sunrise. It appeared we had slept for almost 15 hours. And my husband was equally puzzled. We simply went on with our vacation after that. Okay.
Starting point is 00:44:11 Why not? I guess there's a little... Oh, that would be amazing. Dan, you're going to need it after that drive, man. I am, yes. There's a little epilogue here, guys, as well. About a year later,
Starting point is 00:44:27 I was folding laundry while watching a TV program about the Phoenix lights when the memories started to flood back. It felt like a replay. Yeah. It felt like a replay. Seeing the gray at the door, the terror, my exact thoughts and sensations, what I had said, and even the strange feeling of waking afterward having forgotten everything. But what frightened me most wasn't simply remembering the being.
Starting point is 00:44:54 It was realizing that somehow the memory had disappeared. I still don't know how or why it happened or why. watching something about UFOs seem to unlock it. The recalled experience was more vivid than almost any other memory I have ever had. I've had other unusual experiences since involving
Starting point is 00:45:13 orbs, lights, and strange anomalies in the sky, but I haven't recalled another physical encounter with a tall gray. To this day, the combination of the strange cube over the mountains, the being outside our patio, my husband apparently seeing it too, and the
Starting point is 00:45:29 inexplicable loss and later return of the memory remains one of these strangest, strangest experiences of my life. Wow. There you go, guys. That's crazy. I wonder if that TV show was the same one as jogged Kurt Russell's memory. I was thinking that too. How many people like did these shows in the Phoenix Light, you know, activate, so to speak,
Starting point is 00:45:52 into these experiences and memories? Right. You know, what's weird too, Dan? I spoke to a couple witnesses of the Phoenix Lights. And they saw the big boomerang shaped craft, I think it was earlier in the night. But they had instant amnesia. They hadn't remembered seeing the boomerang shaped craft until many years later when they themselves saw like James Fox's documentary or whatever.
Starting point is 00:46:20 I know what I saw. So I don't know, man. I wish we had that ability where we could just like do this Samantha thing with our noses and tell people who annoy us. you don't remember me anymore. You don't know me. Go away. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:37 How does that work? We don't know. I don't know. But this, this story is just crazy. Like being locked into bathroom for hours. That's terrifying on its own. It's like signs.
Starting point is 00:46:49 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The being getting up there, they're like three, four stories up. Like, how did it get up there? You know,
Starting point is 00:46:58 just the whole sleeping for 15. hours thing is really weird too. I don't know. I don't know. This is a very weird one. Is that sleeping or could we, can we experience missing time whilst also being asleep? Right. Or some combo. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:17 Or some combo, for sure. We use our sleep as the trigger to calm us down and, you know. Defense mechanism or something. Yeah, like a hypnagogic state, right? Yeah. Yeah. moving a shock backwards, it supposedly calms them. Unless we forget the cube-shaped craft that kind of started this whole story, too.
Starting point is 00:47:37 That's pretty unique. Pretty crazy. Speaking of celebrities, you guys, did you see that Sandra Bullock came out last night or this morning with a UFO experience? Yes. Yes. Dan, did you see that? I saw that she came out with it. I haven't read about the experience yet, but I'm super curious.
Starting point is 00:47:53 It's a short one, but it's a substantive one. It's worth fine. We may talk about it Sunday, maybe. You know what? I'm not kidding you. Because we do the live streams on Sunday, I already downloaded it. And I have it. Perfect. Should I?
Starting point is 00:48:07 Let's watch it really quick. Yeah, let's watch it. It's like 30 seconds or something. Let me grab this banner. Oh, amazing. Great. Yeah. Dan, I don't know if you'll be able to see this or not, but you'll be able to hear it.
Starting point is 00:48:18 Here's. Absolutely. Yeah. Here's Sandra Bullock talking about her UFO experience. We're filming in St. Martin. We're all lying on the sand. And we're all looking up at the sky. And I see this little point of light.
Starting point is 00:48:31 And I said, oh, it's thinking to myself, a satellite. It's just moving across the sky. Then I'm watching it. And then there's another little light that comes from a different direction to meet that light. I thought maybe it was a plane passing, but no, they stayed. And then there was another light. And another light, there was five altogether. They all sort of came together.
Starting point is 00:48:45 And then all of a sudden they just took off like that. This was before drones were around. And then I was just quiet about it until the government released the documents. And that exact formation was also seen by Lodonel. legitimate pilots. So I feel, I feel vindicated. Do firmly believe there's life. God, we can't be the only one. I think they're here. We can't be. I mean, I would love it. I think they're here, but they're invisible. Isn't that interesting? She knows what she saw. She's not, she's not confused about what she saw. But I wouldn't make this point, fellows, as frustrated as the three
Starting point is 00:49:23 of us and our listeners can be about these government releases, there is. is the value right there. So it spreads out across the normal populace, excluding those of us who do this all day every day. And they get some reaffirmation about what they've heard or seen or witnessed, and then they can talk about it. And then so the government, the imprimatur of the government, while we get very frustrated with them, certainly has some value. Absolutely. Yeah. It's that ripple effect. Like, you know, these trends, as we complain about them and, you know, how little there is. But it's the plethora of stuff that's being released, whether we like it or not,
Starting point is 00:50:07 whether it's the quality we're used to or want, I should say. It does. It gets more people talking about it. And now Sandra Bullock is an experiencer. So crazy, crazy. We got her on the team, Jay Allen says. Cool. Anything else for this story?
Starting point is 00:50:28 I need to jump off real quick. I will be. Yeah. Of course, buddy. No worries. No worries. I am here. And I will jump back on with you, ASAD.
Starting point is 00:50:40 Sounds good, my man. Sounds good. Above and beyond day. I will be right back. Okay. Sounds good. Absolutely. Cool.
Starting point is 00:50:50 I mean. Go ahead with number four. Let's go ahead. I don't know. What do you think? Well. I know, Dan, for those. who may have not caught that. Dan,
Starting point is 00:51:00 he's been driving for like 15 freaking hours or something, and he just made it to like his stop. So he's getting in touch with the people and everything right now. So that's where he went. I don't know. What do you think? Should we go on? I don't want him to miss it.
Starting point is 00:51:17 I know. I wish he could hear us. I guess maybe we go on slowly. You know what I can do. You know what I can do. Before we get this story for, I have something related. to the grays that I wanted to share.
Starting point is 00:51:30 Oh, okay, let's do that. I have been working, excuse me, of course I'm going to start coughing right now. I'm working with Whitley Streber and this other company through the Ubikery University. And what they're doing is a four-part webinar series with Whitley Streber talking all about the visitors and his experiences. and it's going to be a, like I said, a four-part web series where live streamed. So you can interact with Whitley Schreber as he's doing this thing. There's also some other supplementary little add-ons with it as well, little webinars, Q&As, things like that.
Starting point is 00:52:16 And it's being done through this thing called the Ubiky University. And it's going to be happening, Suzanne, September 17th through October 8th for four consecutive weeks. I'm making it. Yeah. I don't want to listen to that. So basically, if anyone is interested, I did put a
Starting point is 00:52:36 link in the pinned live chat where you can go to the affiliate link, my affiliate link, and get your tickets there for this four-part webinar with Whitley Streber. There's a link in the show notes slash video description
Starting point is 00:52:52 as well. And if you... Yep. I'll put it in the chat as well. Cool. Thank you. And yeah, it's not just about like his past experiences with the visitors. It's more about reflecting back on us. As you see on your screen here, it says disclosure isn't about them. It's about us remembering.
Starting point is 00:53:14 And I think Whitley wants to get back to a time in our lives where we remember being the most human, the most loves, the most compassionate, the most imaginative, the most positive sort of. of things. And I think that's what the beings or the visitors are sort of starting to, I guess, impart to him is your kind, your species needs to get back to a point where they once were. Don't become us. Don't become these emotionless, you know, sort of drones, high mind sort of beings. Not this. I mean, I feel like I'm putting down these visitors. They could be vastly intelligent and compassionate. I don't know. But, uh, but yeah, it sounds like. like more of a reflection sort of thing.
Starting point is 00:53:58 Interesting. Interesting. Did you happen to watch his video on a current sort of scary message he got from the Grays? Yeah. What was that all about? Did you catch it at all? I don't know, but it was like they were fussing at him and frustrated with him.
Starting point is 00:54:13 And I'm not going to lie, it kind of gave me anxiety and I turned it off. Yeah. With intentions to go back, it's back on my list from maybe possibly on Sunday. But I don't know. it was very uncomfortable, I thought. Let me see if I can find it. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:31 I'm on his Twitter, and I'm not seeing anything. He may not have posted it there. But yet, oh, wait. I think he did. Okay, wait. I think I might have found it here. How long is it? It's pretty long.
Starting point is 00:54:48 It's like an hour and eight minutes. I'm going to put a link. Okay. So people can go to it. this is on his website. So give me one second. Putting it in the chat right now. So that's separate from this webinar series, guys.
Starting point is 00:55:02 So don't get them mixed up. Two different things. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So yeah, if you want to go watch that, it's called Whitley-Strieber responds to a difficult communication with a call for mercy. So I don't know. Maybe that difficult communication has something to do with, you know,
Starting point is 00:55:23 this webinar series as well maybe it ties in it could also have something to do and of course i'm sheerly speculating but i know that this week we passed that horrific milestone where we don't have the current active ability to return our planet to temperatures that are required there was a threshold temperature i think set maybe in when did an inconvenient truth come out with algor was that like 89 or 90s. Oh gosh. Yeah. Early 90s, I want to say. But I wonder if these kinds of messages are now dovetailing with that. Awesome. All right. Well, hey, let's get to Story 4. We'll catch Dan up. This one's interesting, Suzanne, for the title alone. But good luck because it's your turn.
Starting point is 00:56:17 You're reading Story 4. Good luck with all this. Hang on. I'll suddenly miss up my screen. All right. I possessed a dog during an alien abduction from user. And my dog sounds asleep here. She didn't need to hear any of this. Being 17, she can't. So anyway, the user is over 1900. Here we go. I was hearing weird noises in my bedroom. Okay, right there, I'm a no-go. Already. No. No noises. Again, here we are in the bed and not. Can we not? All right. I was paranoid, looking around until I saw a gray at the end of my bed.
Starting point is 00:57:01 I don't remember what was said telepathically, or if he just controlled me with his eyes, but I did not scream or run. He raised his arm, and in his hand he had a long needle. I did not know what a gray was. I thought a monster was about to stab me. He walked around my bed, and when he was next to me, he started inserting the needle into one of my nostrils. He was navigating needle pretty far up for a minute while I was praying. I don't remember how he got me out of the room and how my family was subdued, but the next thing I remember is that I'm inside a very bright and very blurry white room
Starting point is 00:57:41 with other abductees and a line next to me. A gray was walking to each abductee and staring into their eyes. When my turn came, I saw projections in my mind, of earthly devastation. Oh, here we go. I wasn't going to cooperate with them, though, and I fought that telepathic communication and stopped it, which seemed to have annoyed the gray. He called me a bad boy, and my memory cuts there. The rest of my memories are disjointed. I'm missing a lot, and I would love to have a hypnotherapy session to fill in the blanks, but they are rare, expensive, and not regulated. All true. And to make sense,
Starting point is 00:58:23 things worse, I think memories and brain functions work differently when in a UFO, to Dan's point. They can manipulate what you see and remember. I remember blurred faces, for example, and I remember very little of our telepathic communications, sadly. Anyway, I have the memory of meeting a female hybrid child about my age. We were both given a puzzle toy, and they expected us to play with it. I could never figure out how to even play with it. The hybrid child solved it all. alone and I remember some animosity between us, jealousy from my part. I think I remember seeing a tall gray lecturing a group of hybrid children, myself included, in a telepathic session. I don't think I participated much at all in that session. The hybrid children seemed to get a lot more
Starting point is 00:59:11 out of it. I wasn't a good subject. I don't remember much of the hybrid children. To me, they were just weird-looking, super smart, telepathic kids. I remember a private meeting with a tall female gray who was a leader. We talked, but I remember nothing of our conversation. I only remember I was trying to cope, thinking of something personal to me that brought me comfort. She wasn't threatening, though. On the contrary, she was peaceful, caring, and nurturing. I was still very disoriented. I remember being subjected to a virtual reality test, probably to test my empathy levels. I was in a room and in front of me was a burning upside down car and a kid from my school was screaming for help inside it. I remember a bit of a panic because I didn't recall any of my past where I lived,
Starting point is 01:00:03 who my family was. It was just me, the kid, and the flaming car. Yet I still knew him. He wasn't really a bully, but someone I was scared of at school. So I helped him. I dragged him out of the car. After that, the kid thanked me profusely. I remember walking next to a blue dwarf in a corridor and walking by a room where a woman was screaming loudly. Someone was in distress. So far, little paranoid me was undecided if they were good or evil. But that scream pushed me to believe that they were evil. I'm ashamed to say it, but I tried to be buddies with him for self-preservation. and instead of freaking out, I laughed at the woman. The blue dwarf noticed this and said,
Starting point is 01:00:50 huh, we'll remember this. I remember a blue dwarf showing me the state of the world in my adult years. I think I asked him to see my future. I think he did it all telepathically. To my surprise, the future was in torment. People were fighting. There was a lot of division. Little paranoid me still thought that they were evil.
Starting point is 01:01:10 So I said out loud, divide and conquer, eh? Mind you, it might not be the case. I just connected the dots that way in the moment. I remember anal probing. I thought I was getting dismembered by demons. I was screaming and praying. A tall gray walked up to me and stared into my eyes and I blacked out. I don't remember getting up from that table.
Starting point is 01:01:33 I remember floating in spirit form around the ship. That's fascinating. I stumbled upon two other spirits who were kind of evil. They were starting a fight with me. Then things got dangerous, when things got dangerous, I called for help, and help came in the form of a man. The two spirits seemed to respect him, and they let me go with him. I remember being in the huge white room with a giant window that had a view in the space. I was sitting on the floor in the back of the room next to a man, and I was inside a female's body for some reason.
Starting point is 01:02:08 The man never spoke to me, I think, at least not verbally, and I think the girls, the girls, whose body I was in was talking to me inside my mind and maybe the man too like a conference but it's frustrating I don't remember nothing of what was said I remember entering a room full of dogs maybe eight or ten of them I remember possessing one of them and controlling a dog's body for maybe a minute I think I did this to hide from everything and maybe the dogs were put there to help me relax it's funny because I was in spirit form when I entered the room and I remember facing that dog and telling it I was going to enter him. And so he seemed to acknowledge me,
Starting point is 01:02:49 but did not want me to enter. I entered anyway. Sorry, dog. He has regrets about that. I remember being pinned high up against a wall and incapable of moving. A military walked up to me with what I think was a mantis. I'm not even sure. I think he was blurred not to scare me. They had a talk while looking at me. I remember a room full of military men sitting around a normal neon lit room. They called my name, but I couldn't process anything anymore. I just replied, over 1900 is not here right now. There was a gray in that room, but none of the military men seemed to acknowledge it.
Starting point is 01:03:33 I stared into the gray's eyes and tried to download all my angst and terror into him. Maybe he could show it to the military men so they could see it. the amount of distress they were causing. I remember skinny Bob looking grays at the end. I think they were tasked to tell me goodbye and to send me home. For some reason, these grays seem more relatable to me. I remember seeing one sitting alone at a console, and he looks sad and lonely for some reason.
Starting point is 01:04:03 Okay. Okay. There we are. It's so funny. So, like, people can't see, my setup here, right? Like how I'm filming this right now. I have like a stack of
Starting point is 01:04:19 books and like boxes and like shoe boxes. It's the most like haphazard setup you guys can imagine behind the camera here. And I'm staring right now at a thousand piece puzzle and that's
Starting point is 01:04:35 what that's one of the boxes. And that's what this story reminds me of. Yes. You have a puzzle piece for from like 10 different puzzles. And it's so disjointed. There's no full picture emerging. And I just feel like this story is just snippets of like all different abduction
Starting point is 01:04:56 experiences throughout the years mixed all into one giant thing. And I don't mean that. Like I'm not trying to be disrespectful or anything. It just seems so frantic or chaotic. or chaotic or manic almost. I don't know. Am I being too harsh? What do you think? I don't think of being too harsh. I would add if they are messing with memory and perception, I can imagine it ending up like this, right? If you're scared to death in the moment and you're totally out of your realm of comfort and then scary stuff like this is going on that you can't make
Starting point is 01:05:38 sense of, I can imagine that you would end up with snippets that make zero sense. Very good point. But who knows? It is a whole lot for one experience. We don't normally hear 15 layers of an experience. Yeah. I possessed a dog. I saw military people, a mantis, the grays, the anal probe, the psychic connections.
Starting point is 01:06:06 Like, again, it just has. everything and it's all. But again, like you said, it could just be these small, just like pulses of memory coming to this person and they're just trying to like get it all out. Like were these all different experiences kind of melded into one? Like this person may have had more than a single experience, but that's not how the brain is logging it. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:33 The other thing too, right, which the brain, that's pretty common. with traumatic experiences, right? Yeah. The blue dwarfs, that caught my attention to. It reminds me of that the bar scene in the original Star Wars. Yeah. Is it the original Star Wars?
Starting point is 01:06:52 I think so where they get to the bar and they're all these kind of crazy beings. The canteen. The canteena, including some blue beings. Moss Iceley, can'tina, yeah. I shouldn't know that, but I do. Yes, it reminded me of that. It also reminds me of a,
Starting point is 01:07:08 again, Willie Streber, who when he was on the craft or when he was abducted, it wasn't just the pale-skinned sort of grayish beings. It was these little blue dwarf-like beings. And it actually reminds me of a woman named Claudette that I've interviewed from my book, who had an experience with the blue dwarfs when she was a child as well. they were kind of the ones guiding her into the examination room and like playing with her before the examinations and almost like prepping her. Yeah, this is interesting. So you basically have some really scary, perhaps mean beings and you have some really kind beings and you have a whole bunch in the middle that can't really be categorized one or the other. That's an interesting way to look at this person's story. Yeah, especially the skinny Bob like gray's at the end there.
Starting point is 01:08:08 He's like, they were kind of the ones to see me off. Be like, thanks for coming. We'll see you again next time. Not to make light of this, obviously. But you're right. It's like in stages. It is. They got everything going on there.
Starting point is 01:08:23 Yeah. But wow. That was a lot. That story was a lot to process. Aren't you glad you're not the human who has to process that though? Whether it's real or imagined or dreams mixed in with real, whatever that is, that human has to manage that. Exactly. And, you know, we may have made some jokes or, you know, stuff tonight. But at the end of the day, these four stories, like I feel for all these people, like you said, something happened to them.
Starting point is 01:08:53 And they believe this happened to them. and that's something they'll have to wrestle with for the rest of their lives and maybe just getting it out there. You know, these, again, we put the original links to the original posts in the show notes, guys. So be sure to go visit those and just look at the threads. Some of these are three, four, ten years old at this point, you know, go to those comments, see what people had to say.
Starting point is 01:09:19 I hope people weren't too mean or anything to them. I mean. Or some were because Reddit can be a little bit like Twitter. Yeah, it can. It is Reddit after all. But yeah, I thought these were four very interesting stories of the graze for tonight. Never heard of anybody possessing a dog. Never.
Starting point is 01:09:38 I had to make that the title. I knew that would draw people in for sure. If that's true, good Lord, good Lord. Time you voted in the polls. So you guys, now's the time.
