95 be able to control our situation no matter how hard we might pray to God.” One of the other women, tall and plump and brown-haired, started yelling, “Here they come! Here they come!” The sound grew unbearable as a strange-looking airplane flew toward them and landed like a helicopter. Two of the women panicked and ran into the woods, while Angie and the brunette stood frozen in place by fear. A group of men in black uniforms emerged and began rounding up all the women. As they were hurried toward the craft, Angie said she remembered “telling them that I’m not an animal and do not appreciate them treating me like one.” Ignoring her, the men pushed the women into narrow compartments at the rear of the craft, which then took off and frightened Angie even more with its erratic flight. She began to pray and then blacked out. “After coming to my senses,” Angie reported, “I found myself sitting in a chair and at some place that looked like a military base. | saw several men in military uniforms leading some humans toward these long, gray buildings.” Two men took Angie into one of the buildings, where she saw a group of people seated around a conference table, some in uniform and others in ordinary clothing. One of the men, who had on a uniform with many decoration ribbons, stared at Angie wordlessly from the table and engaged her in a brief telepathic conversation. Then a woman came up behind Angie, and when she turned to look at her, the woman’s gaze paralyzed her. The woman gave Angie a dark red liquid to drink, which made her dizzy and sleepy to the point of passing out. After that, she remembered only a brief view of the buildings from a distance and then the sound of the strange aircraft once again. When Angie underwent hypnosis, she chose to examine this experience, recovering a few more details. After passing out from the bitter liquid, Angie recalled waking up in one of five chairs that seemed to be on a stage or platform. “A man and three women were sitting in chairs at both sides of me,” she said. “I experienced physical paralysis and couldn't think straight when the general gazed into my eyes. He wasn’t any more than two inches from my face. He lifted my hand, then dropped it, like checking to see if | was in a deep trance, then checked my pupils. He did the same with the others. The woman presented a small reddish-brown box to him,” she continued, “and he pulled out a tube from underneath it and attached the tube to something between my chair and the next person’s. | blacked out again and have absolutely no memories of what transpired during the remaining time | was there.” When she got out of bed the next morning, her neatly folded clothes were scattered on the floor. She had a hissing sound in one ear and problems hearing the rest of the day. And she discovered the door to the basement standing open that morning. When Angie called the next day to tell me about this incident, | could hear helicopters flying over her home. She had been very unnerved by the incident and said it was all “scary and confusing.” That fear turned to sheer terror the following month, when once again Angie was forcefully taken by men in military uniforms from her bedroom. Earlier that day, November 9, another dead cow was found in the barn. The body was unmarked, but blood had seeped from its nose and mouth. There was no sign of a struggle, however. That night after going to sleep, Angie awoke to go to the bathroom, and immediately she heard helicopters approaching. From the bathroom window she looked out, but she saw nothing and could no longer hear the choppers. Angie went back to bed and to sleep, but woke up again hearing not only the helicopters but also the sound of a vehicle coming up
