Vampires from Beyond the Moon
Cabinet of Wonders
One July afternoon in 1968, Jennings
Frederick was hunting in forests near Rivesville, West Virginia when
he heard a high-pitched "jabbering" voice address him. "I come as a
friend. I come in peace," squeaked the voice. "I wish medical
assistance. I need your help." Jennings felt something grab his arm,
and turned round to find himself facing a bizarre green-skinned
humanoid.
The humanoid had a slender body like the stalk of a plant and
extremely thin arms like tendrils. It punctured Frederick’s arm with
needle-like fingers and began extracting blood. Then its eyes turned
red and started spinning, putting Frederick into a trance. Once it
had sated its appetite, the entity released its grip and bounded
away, taking 25-ft-long strides. [1]
The fact that Frederick was friends with mercurial Ufologist Gray
Barker may well cast doubt on the credibility of his tale.
Nevertheless, his was not the only encounter with vampiric beings
reported that year. The National Enquirer (again, hardly the most

visited at home late one January night by a whole group of
bloodthirsty entities...

Binnall of America
The
season finale of BoA : Audio, Season Two promises to be a landmark
episode, as we welcome a true icon in the world of esoterica, the
venerable
Brad Steiger.
In this lengthy and in-depth conversation, we'll be
discussing what it was like for Brad to break into esoteric studies,
over 50 years ago, at the young age of twenty years old. We talk
about the lessons he's learned from all these years studying the
paranormal, the evolution of his journey as a researcher, the
explosion of esoterica from niche market to veritable cottage
industry, his thoughts on the lack of cohesion in esoterica, the
role of the media in covering the unknown, the hopefulness of the
1960's, the problem with today's newcomers to esoterica, and tons
and tons more. It's truly the culmination of many of the big picture
themes from Season Two, posed to a bonafide first ballot esoteric
Hall of Famer, Brad Steiger.
Full Preview : In lieu of the usual "bio / background" opening
question, we begin this interview by finding out the event or series
of events that initially sparked Brad's interest in the esoteric. We
talk about his early interest in the esoteric and what it was like
breaking into the field at 20 in 1956. He talks about his
grandmother's frightening advice on his interest in the esoteric,
his near death experience at 11, and the stunning, ephemeral,
revelation he received and the reaction upon his return from
near-death. He find out about some of Brad's early influences and
the people who helped paved the road for his entry to esoterica...

Strange UFO Sightings Over Didim
Voices
DIDIM became the
UFO sighting capital of Turkey when several people reported seeing
strange lights ın the skies.
The strange yellowish melon-shaped ball was spotted by the Police
Academy in Yeşilkent, while regulars at the Ark Cafe Bar, in Hunters
Valley, spotted the same UFO-style lights at about 9.30pm last
Saturday night.
Phil and Lorraine Quibell said they spotted the strange lights
heading towards them but hundreds of metres off the ground as they
walked on the Yeşilkent road, close to the police academy at about
9.30pm.
They described how the melon-shaped object was moving fast and in a
straight line before swerving towards the police academy direction
and towards the sea before disappearing over the horizon.
Mr Quibell, aged 52, formerly from Preston, said the object was a
bright sun colour at the top but faded to a yellowish-moonlight
colour below.
There was no noise coming from ıt either before or after they had
seen it...
