Paranormal Perspectives: Portraits of Alien Encounters Revisited by Nigel Harry Watson
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 non-terrestrial 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 far-fetched or 'crazy.' His decades-long 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 life-changing 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.
Nigel Watson has researched and investigated historical and contemporary reports of UFO sightings since the 1970s. He writes a monthly column 'Saucers of the Damned' about UFOs for Fortean Times and regularly writes book reviews for the Pelicanist blogspot. He lives in Plymouth, UK.
