Alien Abduction in the UK

Flying Saucers, Unidentified Flying Objects, Unidentified Anomalous Objects, Foo Fighters, Ghost Rockets, Phantom Airships, Chariots of the Gods whatever you call them strange things have haunted our skies since the dawn of time. Are they invaders from outer space as imagined in Hollywood movies? Are they the product of psychological, sociological, and cultural factors? Are they nonterrestrial intelligences who are intimately linked to humanity? Instead of wrestling with theories and speculation, Nigel Watson speaks directly with ‘ordinary’ people in the United Kingdom who have reported seeing UFOs and a wide range of startling associated phenomena, that in the past were considered by UFO investigators as too farfetched or ‘crazy.’

His decadeslong research shows how UFO encounters can often escalate from simple sightings of lights in the sky to sightings of alien entities, robots, men in black, and angelic beings. UFO witnesses and experiencers can also be plagued by a lifechanging poltergeist or other ghostly experiences, telepathic messages, alien communications, strange coincidences, visions of the future, and abductions. Many of the stories might seem like science fiction or the very stuff of nightmares, yet they are told by people of different age groups, social backgrounds, and locations. Whatever the answer, if there is any one answer, this is a fascinating look at how UFO experiences have evolved in the UK and reflect similar worldwide changes in our relationship with the unknown.

Bio

Nigel Watson has researched and investigated historical and contemporary reports of UFO sightings. In collaboration with Granville Oldroyd and David Clarke, he has written several articles about phantom airships seen over Britain in 1909 and 1913. Their comprehensive study of the 1913 airship scare was published by the Fund for UFO Research (FUFOR) in 1988.

A wider survey of these historical reports is contained in his e-book titled, The Origin of UFOs: Phantom Airships 1807 to 1917 (selfhelpguides.com) and he has produced another e-book titled The Flying Saucer Cinema (selfhelpguides.com). This looks at how the images and stories of spaceships and aliens have evolved on our cinema screens over the past 100 years.

He is the author of Portraits of Alien Encounters (1990), Supernatural Spielberg (with Darren Slade, 1992) and editor/writer of The Scareship Mystery: A Survey of Phantom Airship Scares, 1909- 1918 (2000).
