31 bedroom window. Before | could race to the window, it was gone. My eyelids were very swollen in the morning, and also my back hurts.” “March 27, 1993. Felt uneasy, like having a nightmare, struggling and thrashing about, and then feeling sort of paralyzed. | felt the need to scream and resist, and | yelled, ‘No!’ two or three times. Trying to wake Neal up, | grabbed onto him. | was being lifted off the bed by a force, but | struggled and somehow broke out of it. When | looked around the room, a reddish-orange light flashed in the house and then went to the side and it seemed white. This was about 1:00 to 1:20 a.m.” Another common report involves bizarre, unexplained behavior of electrical equipment in the abductee’s environment, and, as an excerpt from Lisa’s journal shows, this has also frequently occurred with her and Neal. “At about 3 a.m. my husband and | were waked up by the radio going crazy, the front porch light blinking, and the touch-light lamp in the living room on bright.” Even the phone began to act oddly, ringing and crackling incessantly with no one on the other end of the line. “Finally we just had to unplug the phone,” her journal noted. “I was scared.” This was not an isolated event, as other entries in her journal show: “May 10, 1993. About midnight or so, the kids’ radio came on and the lamp in the living room came on twice. Neal and | had disturbed sleep.” Unexplained activity of helicopters over the home, following, as it does so often after UFO activity, shows up in Lisa’s case. For her, it began in early 1993, as her journal notes. “March 15, 1993. About 12:20 or 12:30 a.m. | saw some beautiful blue lights coming down the hallway [through a window from a craft near the house], then somewhere around that time | heard a helicopter over our house by my bedroom window. It stayed for a while, then left. It appeared on the scene moments after the craft was leaving. Couldn't sleep rest of the night.” “September 22, 1993. Helicopters were still flying at 11 p.m. The humming and ‘Morse code’ were almost deafening again.” “September 23, 1993. Went to bed about 11:30. | ‘dreamed’ about the Grays telling me how easy it was to get me. Then it changed to a room where there were autopsies going on. Somebody human-sounding was talking, and a woman was lying on a table who had been ‘done.’ They said some people had a Y-incision and some a straight incision. She was a white woman, probably in her forties. Also, sometime during the night a helicopter was flying close to our house, but | couldn’t get up and fell back asleep. So tired in the morning.” Lisa has many of the symptoms typically reported by other abductees, including stress, sleep disruption, depression, a sense of having a job or task to perform, disturbing dreams of massive UFO landings and of widespread disasters. “| feel they have said they love me and that | was special (yeah, sure), and they say that | will be used for some purpose,” Lisa commented. “Probably to tell others about them. I’ve had dreams telling me to go to isolated places and store food. Can't remember more. | have had small glimpses of catastrophes, just a flash of severe starvation, not enough to remember.” A journal entry from December 1992 records one of the dreams of massive UFO presence which is very commonly reported. “In this dream ,” Lisa notes, “I was in the dark with someone, looking at the night sky, and the spaceships were coming in landing. | told someone, ‘They’re finally coming’.” Among the events of actual abduction scenarios-whether recalled consciously, in flashbacks, or in memories surfacing in dreams - Lisa’s experiences include almost every type of reported event. Most women, for instance, have undergone physical, specifically gynecological, examinations while in the hands of the aliens. Lisa’s account echoes the usual scenario, beginning with the memory of being “on their spaceship on a small examination table all scrunched up.” “My legs were put as close to my bottom as possible. They had something holding me open while they inserted [something] or did their exam. The table seemed to be at their height. Seems “May 29, 1993. At 3:30 p.m. my son and | saw a dark helicopter pass over our house.”
