Upright 'White Monster' Encountered in Rural Missouri

I recently came across the following account:

I just went to my high school reunion and chatted with my old neighbor and best friend Ash. She said 'do you remember that pig-faced monster we saw?' I looked at her with shock as the horrible memory flooded back. I must have been so terrified I blocked it out but. Oh yes...I remember.

We used to live on a secluded dirt road, well, in the middle of a 40 acre plot away from the road. Our property joined a huge state park at the back, 25 miles from the nearest town in Missouri. We were about 13, so around 2003.

We were babysitting our younger siblings so it was us and 4 younger ones. Our parents were out for the night. Obviously we were no strangers to the woods. We knew the whole property well and would even walk the 2 miles between our houses. Free range kids.

So it's way past dark, but we have a pole light by the house. It's summer so it feels great outside. We were all playing tag or hide and seek, running around. I ran around the corner of my house and I saw something white, like a flash, run behind the propane tank, then the wellhouse. Our backyard was clear beside the small wellhouse and propane tank, the woods are probably 150 yards away, so not alot of places for an animal to hide. Ash saw it too. The kids are still playing and we thought it was a stray dog, even though this thing was crazy fast, way faster than a dog. Up until that point we had no reason to fear anything in the woods, we don't have large predators. So we're like 'oh poor dog...let's check it out.' We sprint over around the wellhouse and see a crouched white thing. I remember it's hands were long fingered HANDS. It was matted and dirty, smelled like death and sh*t. My mind couldn't quite even comprehend it's face but it had like a long kinda upturned nose and no hair on its face...like a snarling dog pig. I don't really remember the eyes but I think they were black and yellow, all I know is they looked evil and inspired fear I hadn't known.

At that moment we screamed and ran, and the thing dashed off into the woods as I looked over my shoulder. The kids hear us scream and know something is wrong. We scream at them to get in the house and we lock the doors. I couldn't keep my eyes off the back windows, like I didn't want to see it but I had kids to protect so I felt like I needed to know if it was there. We were just scared, pumped with adrenaline and couldn't even speak about it. We got the kids calmed down and to bed finally, and I talked with Ash and she saw the same thing I did. My parents got home and we broke down freaking out, crying, pointing at the wellhouse. My step-dad even went out there with a gun we were so adamant. They told us it was probably a feral hog and we were just tired or something. We didn't tell anyone at school and never brought it up again.

After the reunion I ask my brother who is six years younger than me so he was about 7, if he remembered that night we saw a monster at mom's old house. He said no and I started talking about how I forgot about it until Ash brought it up and about how we saw something run behind the wellhouse. He interrupts me and asks 'was it white?' I say 'yeah', he asks 'did it have a face like a weird dog?' I nod. His eyes get big and he basically starts yelling 'Omg, I saw that thing down the road from there a few years ago!' And freaking out, visible goosebumps on his arms.

He says he was driving the dirt road with his girlfriend at the time, hauling ass like always but on the really rocky patches he would hit the brakes and drive slow over the rocks. He saw something in his headlights standing about ten feet from the ditch, so still he thought someone put a weird statue out there, but it's eyes followed him and its face was sweaty. It was white but muddy, had a dog face and long fingered hands, and stood on two legs at least 6 feet tall. It's eyes followed him as he passed it and he looked in the rear view mirror and saw it dash away into the trees. He asked his girlfriend if she saw it and she just nodded. They never spoke of it again and he never told anybody. He said he kinda blocked it out until I brought up the monster at moms.

I did stop playing in the woods after that day in 03, started doing sports and teenager things. Ash stopped walking to my house and we grew apart. Now my brother and I are creeped out as hell. I need to call my mom. - IGTF

Angel in the Woods

This took place in 1909 when my Great Grandfather Harley was 7. He lived deep in the Maine woods with his parents and 2 siblings. Harley’s father was away for a couple of weeks due to his job and it was the beginning of winter. He helped his Mother care for the family home and his younger siblings. One day, he was helping his Mom hang some laundry out in the cold when she fell ill and fainted upon entering the house. Harley did his best to care for her but after a couple days it seemed his family had all become very sick. He was fine. He recalled his mother telling him that he had to take a journey into town to fetch a doctor. The walk was 10 miles or so and he was only 7. He had to be strong as he was the man of the house with his Father gone. He bundled himself up and headed out early in the morning.

It was cold and began to snow and Harley started to doubt he could make it. He said the snow started blinding him and his feet were so frozen that it was hard to keep going. Suddenly a friendly dog greeted him and behind him a man. Harley was relieved. The man was very handsome and wore a strange coat that didn’t look warm enough, it looked leather and had fur around the collar. The stranger introduced himself as Finn and asked him where he was heading. He said he was going the same way and they walked side by side through the storm along with Finns dog. Harley said they talked and talked although he didn’t remember what about but he did recall feeling warm and safe and full of energy. The journey flew by and as they approached the small town Harley looked around to see that the dog was gone when he looked back at Finn, he had disappeared as well! They were quite a ways out of the woods and there was nowhere he could have gone to. Harley was confused but soon found someone to speak with.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t go back out for a while due to a huge snowstorm. Sadly my Great Grandfather's Mother and siblings passed away. Now the story didn’t end there. This twist has always boggled my mind and I just wish I had the answers. Harley married my Great Grammie Sara and they named their firstborn son Finn after Harley’s 'angel in the woods'. Finn was a handsome man who became a pilot against his mother's wishes. In 1941 he crashed his plane flying solo and my Grandmother couldn’t speak his name again until she was old and on her deathbed. I saw an old photo of Finn in his leather bomber jacket with the fur around the collar. I always wondered if he had been the angel that saved my Grandfather's life. - DL

Santa's Dog?

“We saw Santa's dog one Christmas eve.. Joke... but seriously when I was 12, I was helping my dad get my mom's present and bring it in the house after she went to bed. It was about 10:30 PM and we carried the gift into the house and I went back outside to close up the truck. It was a pretty bright night with the moon and it had snowed about 6 inches earlier that day. As soon as I stepped off the porch and turned the corner to walk to the driveway, as soon as I looked up, there was the biggest dog I have ever seen. I think it was one of those Russian dogs that protect the livestock from wolves. As soon as I saw it, I stopped dead in my tracks. I thought I was dead. But it just sat there looking at me with his head tilted to the side like he was curious. I just stood there frozen in place just staring at it I'll never forget the color. It was pure white. About this time my dad came around the corner and stopped frozen like I was. After about 20 seconds, it stood up turned around on our shovelled path and walked towards the driveway (I live in a very rural area) I remember it had on a red collar with bells on it. As soon as I turned to my dad to see if he was watching this and turned back, it was gone (my driveway is about a 1/4 mile long). I have no idea where it came from or where it went. We looked for tracks for about 45 minutes and couldn't find any which is strange because the snow was fresh with no tracks other than from the truck pulling in. I never felt threatened by it or anything it was just surreal and if my dad had not have saw it, I would probably question whether it was really there.” - Mike Whipkey

Kokogi: 'Spirit Monster' Infests First Nation Reservation

I recently found the following account:

I don't even know where to start. I guess I'll just write it all in chronological order from when I heard other people's stories and then experienced whatever it was for myself. To preface this, I should mention that all of this took place back home on my reservation (I'm Algonquin First Nation from Canada).

Another thing I should mention is that, on the Rez, traditional beliefs and legends of the paranormal are still big part of our community. The attitude of most people towards the paranormal is one of assurance. To us, the paranormal is a regular part of life, we believe in a spirit world, and we believe that sometimes these "beings" can cross over into our world and maybe even live among us.

When I tell paranormal stories to my non-native friends, they're always in such disbelief that things like this have actually happened and how casually I talk about it, but it's only because it's been so normalized for me. Where they have absolutely no paranormal experiences, I have a bunch and most everyone I know on the Rez has even more than I do. I don't really care to explain it, maybe we're all crazy from drinking our toxic tap water lol (@JustinTrudeau). I don't know.

Anyways, here's the story.

This all happened in the Fall of 2011 when I was 16 years old. I was living in a nearby city with my mom so that I could get a better education than the one I could get back home, but we'd go back every single weekend to see my dad and little brother. One Friday, during the drive back home, I got a text from a friend of mine. She told me about a party that was happening that night and asked me when I'd be home so they could come pick me up. I gave her a time and that was that.

We get home and as soon as we stepped inside the house, we see my dad and my cousin sitting at the kitchen table drinking some beers. They're both cops on the Rez, so usually, beers with his partner on a Friday evening, means that they had a particularly tough week at work. Typically, the toughest cases to deal with are child abuse and molestation, so a part of me felt sad immediately that something that bad had happened. They both look tired and drained, but they're happy to see us. We say our greetings, catch up a little, and my dad asks me if I have any plans. I tell him about the party and where it'll be, and he and our cousin share a weird look.

"Why are you guys making that face? Did something happen?" I asked.

"I don't know, should we tell her?" My cousin said, looking at my dad. He laughed, and they decided that I should probably know what's been going on since I'd be going to a cottage pretty deep in the woods later that evening.

They start with the first strange call they got on Monday night. An older woman called saying that people were outside of her house knocking on all of her windows. She said she couldn't see anybody, but there must have been at least three people judging by all the different locations of the knocking. They arrive at the woman's home, inspected all around the house, even checked the woods, but nothing came up. They tell her that it's probably just some teenagers playing tricks on her and that there isn't much else they can do, besides patrol around the area in case they come back.

On Wednesday night, the same woman called again with the same problem. It had rained that day and there was mud all around this woman's home, so they figure that at the very least, they'd find footprints, but they couldn't find a thing. This is when they started feeling like something was off, because one of the windows where the woman was adamant about there being knocking was completely impossible to get to without stepping through this huge mud puddle. This is when they started to think that the woman was lying, but they just told her the same thing they told her a few nights prior.

By Thursday night, everyone on the Rez had been talking about these strange experiences. It turns out, this woman wasn't the only one experiencing the knocking, she was just the only one to call the police. I mean, all of this was taking place on a Rez, so it wasn't long before people were linking it to supernatural causes. My dad was still sure it was just a group of teens pranking people, but then they got another call from the same woman for the same reason. They rushed over and were met with the same situation, except this time, the neighbour walked over looking pale as a ghost.

He says, "Is this about the knocking?" They notice he's a little shaky.

"Yeah, did you see something?" They asked him. The man nodded and said,

"You guys are gonna think I'm crazy, but yeah," and he goes on to explain what he saw. He said that he'd stepped outside for a cigarette on his front porch when he heard knocking. He looked around to see where it was coming from and when he looked to his neighbour's house, he saw it. There was a black figure standing outside the woman's window (the same one with the mud puddle I mentioned) looking into her home. He said it looked humanoid in stature, but completely made out of shadow. You could tell it was something solid-ish, but you couldn't make out any features on it. He stared at it, completely in shock, and watched the thing as it knocked a couple of times and then darted around the house knocking on every single window. He said it moved too fast to be human, it was practically a blur. It went around the house a few times, then ran across the road into the treeline, behind one tree in particular. The man was frozen, but he couldn't look away. It then leaned out from behind the tree, staring directly at him with yellow eyes that reflected the light similarly to a cat's, and then it smiled, showing its small, but numerous pointed and sharp teeth. "I almost sh*t my pants," he had attempted to joke, but his voice was still shaking.

Fast-forward to Friday, stories are being exchanged all over the Rez about other sightings and experiences people were having. On top of multiple people experiencing the knocking, there were also quite a few sightings with everyone describing the creature in the same way.

One woman was bringing her trash bin to the road, when she thought she saw someone in her peripheral vision standing near the trees. She walked back up the driveway and into her home, feeling like she was being watched. Right before she was about to open her door to go back inside her home, she looked back and saw two reflective yellow eyes watching her from the trees. She said it was about 5 feet above the ground.

Another couple was driving at night and they saw a humanoid figure standing in the middle of the road. As they got closer, they slowed down, and it turned around to face them. That's when they saw the reflective yellow eyes and the sharp, pointed teeth as it smiled at them. They stopped the car, too afraid to go closer to it, until they decided to just drive past it. Being on a narrow road, they drove past it with the figure being only a few feet from the window, staring at them the whole time.

"You sure you still want to go to that party?" My dad asks, but my friends were already pulling into the driveway. I gave my family hugs and kisses goodbye, and they told me to be careful, but I felt fine. A common belief among Native people is that negative energy attracts negative energy, therefore an evil spirit will be drawn to people with unresolved issues, traumas, and "sinners" I suppose. If you're someone who is spiritual, self-aware, and basically a good person, that, in and of itself, will be protective.

I get to the party and within 20 minutes, the conversation shifts towards all the paranormal experiences people have been having. I'm really curious about what everyone has to say, because they have stories that I hadn't heard yet, but my friend (us being 16 and all) couldn't hold her alcohol very well and was crying about how she wishes she was closer with her brother. I was trying to make her feel better while listening to everyone's stories.

One of the people at the party, was related to the neighbour of the woman who was calling the police. The experience really shook him up and my friend was just explaining everything that he was doing later on. For one, he smudged his entire home, which is something our people do when we're looking for extra protection against paranormal entities. He also went to visit multiple elders around the community asking for advice and any information they had on similar "happenings". What we do know about paranormal experiences on the Rez, is that they don't happen as often as they used to. If you talk to one of our elders, they have endless stories and even more advice to give about how to protect yourself compared to now. One of the explanations that was given to this guy about the "shadow thing" was that it was evidence that someone was doing an unauthorized 'shaking tent' ceremony. If you don't know what that is, you can look it up, but it's basically (and I'm generalizing) like a Ouija board session that takes place inside a tent of some sort. People stand around the tent, while the shaman-type dude goes inside and asks questions. The tent begins to shake and you can hear the voices of spirits coming through. I've never personally been to one, because we haven't had a good enough reason to make one, but typically our ancestors used shaking tent ceremonies when they were starving in the dead of winter and needed some direction on where the nearest food source was. My mom's been to one, and her story is absolutely crazy. She described multiple voices of men and women, only speaking the native tongue, and they were upset that the people were doing a shaking tent ceremony when they weren't on the verge of death. The people there had to explain that were only doing the ceremony to prove that it was real as we had been losing our culture as a result of residential schools, but the spirits were angry about this, saying that the bridge between the two worlds should never be opened unless absolutely necessary, because you don't know who you're communicating with. It could be evil spirits and it could be good ones, it could be ancestors, but you never know.

Anyways, the elders told him that this spirit crossed over into our world because of a shaking tent ceremony. Someone on the reserve has been doing them without consultation of the elders. So, we started thinking about who would do that, without proper guidance and without good enough reason to do so.

Then two of the drunkest dudes at this point start saying sh*t like "Ah, I'm not scared, that thing could show up now and it couldn't do sh*t" basically egging it on. All of us were looking at each other like, why the f*ck would you disrespect an evil spirit? That's exactly how you attract it to you, and that's when I decided to leave the sunroom where everyone was hanging out. I went to the living room to console my drunk, crying friend, when I noticed that the rocking chair outside on the porch was going back and forth. I looked away immediately, refusing to make direct eye contact, but I did look at it from my peripheral vision.

Anyways, I'm inside the cottage and I keep seeing this rocking chair going back and forth and back and forth, but another thing we're raised to do in our culture, is to ignore paranormal experiences. Spirits feed on the energy that people put towards them, so if you freak out, if you get angry, if you yell at it, or start crying, that's exactly what it wants and it will stick around once it gets a reaction. It thrives on energy of any kind, so while I knew something fucked up was happening on the rocking chair, I wasn't about to pay it any attention. 5 minutes or so goes by and I'm still seeing it move in the corner of my eye.

That's when my friend screams and she runs to the other side of the sunroom. My other friend sprints to where girl was sitting and busts through the French doors onto the balcony. All of this happens in a split second, but I immediately go to the patio and ask what's going on. The girl is crying on the couch with friends all around her, she claims to have seen the spirit (which we later nickname Kokogi, Algonquin word for 'monster'). She said she was listening to the boys talk about the spirit, when she saw boy's face as he was looking out onto the balcony behind her. She turned around to see was he was looking at, and directly on the other side of the window, was the shadow spirit sitting on the rocking chair, smiling at her, literally three feet from her. That's when the boy sprints towards it and busts through the French doors.

I walk outside to find the boy and he's on the lawn, staring into the woods. I call his name and he looks up at me. All he says is "get everyone inside" and the tone of his voice just makes me automatically obey. I get all the drunk teenagers inside the cottage. This is when the phrase "come at me, bro" was just gaining popularity, so you could imagine the drunk kids yelling that into the woods, it was terrible. I eventually get everyone inside and girl is now in a trance, freaking everyone out. She doesn't speak to anyone, she doesn't say anything but "I want to go home."

The boy comes back inside and tells everyone to clean up, and that we should leave as soon as possible. Everyone has trash bags and are cleaning away all the beer bottles and cans away. Everyone goes into the cottage and it's only me and the other boy in the sunroom now. I look to him for answers and all he says is, "it's outside." I nod and start cleaning faster. The sooner we're out of here, the sooner we're away from that thing. As we're cleaning in the sunroom, we hear knocking on the windows in multiple places. The entire sunroom is made of glass, but its dark out, so you can't even see outside. I immediately look to the boy and he just says "ignore it."

Within two seconds, someone comes running out the bathroom and says "I'll f*cking kill whoever's outside knocking on the bathroom window" but everyone's inside and accounted for. Someone else comes running out of the bedroom saying that there was knocking on the window in there as well. Now, everyone's freaking out, and me and the boy, and our one other friend are the only sober ones to calm everyone down. We get the place clean and get outside to the cars immediately. Everyone's getting into the trucks and I'm standing with the boy, he's relaxed, but then all of a sudden looks behind me and shoves me inside his truck. We peel out of the driveway and drop everyone off.

A few days later, I end up hanging out with the same boy and he tells me the story from his perspective. He said, that when the boys started talking sh*t about the spirit, it appeared on the rocking chair behind girl. He said he made eye contact with it, and couldn't look away. They were staring each other down, and that's when the girl saw his expression. He said it was instinct to defend the people he was with, and ran towards it. He said that the feeling he was getting from the Kokogi was almost like he was daring him to do something. He said the second he got up, the Kokogi stood and ran into the woods, disappearing from the patio in a blur. He ran off the porch, and was looking around the lawn, when he saw it standing at the tree line, looking right at him with a smile on its face. He said the whole time it felt like it was mocking him. I called the boy's name and it disappeared. He didn't see it again until everyone was getting into the trucks, which explains why he suddenly pushed me inside. He said that it was standing on the far end of the truck, super close to us. Later than night, when he'd dropped everyone off, they realized that they never locked the door, so he went back to the cottage, but his friend (whose cottage it was) was too scared to go in. He goes in by himself, but the second he opens the door, he sees the thing standing inside the living room. He locks the door as quick as he can, and they peel out of the driveway.

So yeah, sightings continued for a few days after that. We definitely weren't the only people on the Rez to have experiences like this, and then it stopped all of a sudden. It was the talk of the Rez, everyone was curious about what happened to it. Would it come back? What was it? Etc. But word ended up getting around that there were sightings north of our community. White people in the town just north of us were having sightings, then other reservations were having sightings as well. It was like it was traveling north, the way the stories were going.

Anyways, it's 2018 now and no one else on my Rez has had any sighting of this particular thing.

But yeah, that's my story. - HIK

Wyoming 'Zombie Walkers'

I'm a truck driver and we tend to see some of the most beautiful things this great country has to offer. However in contrast we see some of the most gruesome, from mangled road kill to cars and people equally unrecognizable. I will never forget what I saw that night. I was driving at around 0300 MDT along Wyoming's desolate I-80. That's when a thick fog rolled up on me seemingly out of nowhere and the air was almost electrified. I didn't pay much mind to it at that point just slowed down and put on my 4-ways and just kept truckin. That is until I thought I saw a person staggering away from a vehicle broken down on the shoulder. I was about to stop and call 911 when I saw it, a chunk of flesh fell from his face, then he turned and just stared with these bright red eyes. I was going about 5mph and quickly got it but up to 45mph when I saw another 20 or 30 walking along the interstate all with these bright red eyes and rotten flesh. I didn't dare to stop until I got to Ft. Bridger. It was then that the fog cleared and I noticed an Army convoy breaking at the truck stop I was at. They then proceeded out in the direction of what a couple other truckers told me are known as the Wyoming zombie walkers as they will walk any given stretch of highway or back road in that state, looking for their next human victim. A lot of weird things out on these roads and any trucker will tell you if you can stay home at night do it, cause ya never know what's around that next corner or waiting just beyond the reach of your lights. - NG

Upright 'Panther' in Rural Illinois

“My aunt saw a black panther man when she was a kid. Ever since I had experienced paranormal activity I started polling people, asking if they've ever had anything paranormal happen to them. At dinner at my aunt and uncles I asked them and she said when she was maybe 7 or 8 years old she was playing in a creek in the woods behind their house in the middle of rural Illinois. She heard a noise and looked up to see a tall, muscular black panther man looking at her as he just walked by. She said she was scared to death but the creature was almost beautiful. She watched as he just walked away out of sight. He did not threaten or do anything other than look at her as he passed. At the time I had not heard many or if any of these animal/human sightings so I thought it was interesting and I believed her but it was the first time I'd heard of a cat-man. My uncle who is very meat and potatoes logical said he had not experienced anything paranormal and he just smiled as my aunt told her story. They asked why I was interested and I told them that I'd experienced some supernatural things and now I make a point to ask people if they've experienced anything. My uncle quoted Carl Sagan and said, "Extra-ordinary claims need extra-ordinary proof." But my aunt was not embarrassed and stressed that she indeed saw it and she'll never forget it. That must of been ten years ago and I now know these encounters are somewhat more common than I once thought. You have the Egyptians depicting cat-man, bird-men, dog-men etc. Stephen King's The Dark Tower writes about these entities working with The Men In Black in another dimension. In that story they're called the Taheen. So is it a demon shapeshifter? Are there actual cat-men entities from another dimension that slip into our reality from time to time. Is it a genetically created hybrid monster from some government program? Perhaps aliens created this hybrid as a vessel that demons can possess like an avatar to walk around our realm. Maybe it's like the were-wolf phenomena but a were-panther. I have no idea but the possibilities are endless.” - Human Jones

MILABs, Reptilians and Weaponized Stem Cells

I recently received another report from experiencer Matt R.:

Recently, I was asked to be a guest on the "Unbelievers Podcast" - Episode 4. This was a good opportunity for me to discuss some of my latest reptilian abduction experiences. And, an extremely disturbing MILAB. https://www.spreaker.com/user/theunbelieverspodcast/unbelievers-podcast-episode-4-complete-m

Although it happened a year ago, this is the first time I've publicly discussed it. I was worried there would be some negative repercussions or retaliation from the black operations involved with this. Especially, because this project I was a part of was in critical and vulnerable early innings. I do believe it has reached a point of no return, now.

So, here is an excerpt of a private email I sent Lon about it, many months ago. I am purposely leaving out intel I have privately shared with Lon, regarding strategy and deployment of these modified special forces. Revealing that would likely earn me some kind of violent retaliation. Not death, because I am first and foremost an asset on the Reptilian's books. But, something unpleasant.

I am only including details about the procedure done on me. Specifically, because it had some very disruptive side effects. I don't feel they're doing a good enough job using discretion in using this procedure on subjects, without really informing them of how bad this can get. Or, at least, giving them an option to avoid it. As we've seen this in the ridiculous health supplement industry circus, and with things like HGH, stem cells, and artificial testosterone. There's always some kind of drawback to performance enhancements.

Here are the email excerpts, slightly annotated:

"I had an extremely jarring MILAB type abduction experience, in late January of 2018. I awoke in what appeared to be a hospital examination room. The architecture of the floor, walls, ceiling etc. all appeared to be like a normal earth hospital examination room. The lighting was very excessive, and was focused on myself. I strongly got the impression this was in an underground base, but not very deep. I was strapped to a table at roughly a 45 degree incline. There were at least 4 other people in the room, 3 of them were human. One appeared to be a small Grey alien. A large brown Reptilian stood almost just out of view in the hallway, before stepping in, and then back out. There was an adjustable light, which was focused directly on me, and made it very hard to make out anyone's features.

I immediately looked down at my right arm, and noticed the bicep was cut open, down the middle. I felt no pain, and suddenly found myself suppressing an urge to laugh. Whatever type of anesthesia they were using on me was making me extremely giddy. There was a tray nearby, with what looked like thin rectangular sheets of greenish-yellow gel. Try to imagine if those dissolvable breath strips, if they were about the size of a 3x5 inch standard mail envelope.

The purpose of these, as I was given telepathically, was to be slid over some of my major muscle groups. They would act like transdermal patches, to deliver a payload, and then dissolve. Except, directly on top of muscle, instead of the skin. Their payload is stem cells. Muscle cells cloned from a Reptilian donor.

I was one of the very first guinea pigs for this, although the eventual aim is to make this procedure mandatory for special forces. They first wanted to see if Reptilian abductees can handle the graft process, before they move onto humans who do not have a greater than average amount of Reptilian DNA. Reptilian abductees tend to be from bloodlines with a higher than average amount of Reptilian DNA, which is also further activated in abductions. So, I do expect there are several other Eeptilian abductees who've had this done, around the same time as myself. The human military component of this MILAB alien collaboration did not want to even risk trying regular humans, if high Reptilian DNA humans like me have a bad reaction.

I have had two notable effects, since. One is a general numbness in my major muscle groups. It feels like having a thin t-shirt under your skin. That was the main goal -to enable muscles to have a greater pain threshold, which is something reps bred and engineered into themselves a long time ago. My ability to recover from workouts is very enhanced. That is, I am almost completely without soreness. Beyond this, we transplant recipients also feel less pain if these muscles are wounded. Which of course, means soldiers who are more difficult to incapacitate, through pain.

What's really shocking is, I found out the military has been doing muscle transplant experiments in public, which are extremely similar to what I experienced.

"Quilt" of sheets of the cells from connective tissue of a pig's bladder. The process causes the body to regenerate stem cells at the injury site “ https://www.cbsnews.com/news/patients-regrow-muscles-with-pig-bladder-tissue/

They're grafting rectangular sheets of pig bladder directly to damaged muscles, in injured military vets. The sheets they're using are almost the exact same physical dimensions of the ones in my experience. Within days, most are stronger and more flexible, in the grafted areas. Even more recently, scientists have admitted these engineered "cellular matrix" sheets can enhance uninjured muscles, with non human cells: "Daily Mail: Could implanting pig tissue in people create SUPERHUMANS? Trial shows muscles are nearly 40% stronger after animal transplant" https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3706684/amp/Could-implanting-pig-tissue-people-create-SUPERHUMANS-Trial-shows-muscles-nearly-40-stronger-animal-transplant.html

When I had my abduction, I had NO idea muscle tissue transplants were possible. I had never heard of such a thing. I only found this after weeks of Googling "muscle transplants", after seeing it done in my abduction. Its possibility did not exist anywhere in my subconscious, to be a source of a vivid dream.

And, I can tell you, the 3 minutes or so I was awake during the procedure felt extremely vivid. It's the clearest abduction experience I've had, since that mass abduction in 2005 (where we helped Reptilians train in crowd control, in a mall, in the middle of the night). Whatever anesthesia they used on me was different than anything I've ever felt. I was giddy, but too lucid and alert to be under any kind of barbiturate. I've never taken ecstasy, but the experience matched what I've read of it.

I was shocked to see there were no incision marks, in the morning. Although, I then recalled that was a major stipulation of the procedure, and one of the reasons a skilled grey alien was present. They did not want to have abductees just covered in surgical incisions, all reporting this immediately after. They took great care to heal them, using a laser surgery procedure that was described to me as sealing up the cells in the incision "like a zipper". That is, a very fresh incision wound can have the broken cells on its edges appear to be healed perfectly. This would not work on a wide wound, or old scar. It's why abductees often have "scoop marks", but not long surgical incisions. The scoop marks are from biopsy points, where too many cells have been removed to "zipper" up the remaining cells around the injury. It only works on very sharply cut incisions.

I did strongly get the impression that they wanted to start doing this procedure to high level Special Forces (Delta) . Then, ALL Special Forces units, such as SEALS. That would be the plan, if it didn't have some horrifying side effects with test subjects like myself. And, there has not been. With one exception.

The primary negative side effect was maintenance insomnia. Waking up nearly every 30 minutes, for a few seconds, for many months. Not fun. After doing some research, I found that reptiles have faster and more frequent sleep cycles than humans.
Likely, because they need to briefly wake throughout a night, and make sure they're not in danger. They can't risk being in a deep unaware sleep for too long. Most mammals often nest together, or in a safer position, where they can stay asleep for hours. Basically, the Reptilian cells were waking the rest of my nervous system up. And, it took many months for my brain to condition them to try and stay dormant. It's still not completely fixed. This is yet another detail that was nowhere in my subconscious or memory, to influence my imagination. As described in this article, Humans go through 4 or 5 sleep cycles in one night. Bearded Dragons cycle through 350 in a night! https://www.aaas.org/news/science-reptiles-share-sleep-patterns-mammals-and-birds. These transplanted muscle cells are accustomed to a completely different nervous system cycle sleep pattern . Its like jamming the latest apple macbook processor into your 5-year-old HP windows laptop, and expecting it to just blend together smoothly.

I do know that implantation procedure boosted my psychic abilities. That was absolutely not a goal of the human military participants in this experiment.

They only seek to boost muscle quality in Special Forces. I was only a lab rat, to see if I wouldnt have some awful side effect, before they risk using it on actual Special Forces.

The psychic boost effect is the sole reason the Reptilians agreed to let me be worked on. I did express interest to the Reptilians in boosting my psychic abilities (As discussed, in my last article, here: https://www.phantomsandmonsters.com/2018/06/two-reptilian-abductions-in-48-hours.html).

That opened me up, in terms of permission, for this to happen. I distinctly recall a Reptilian telling me I could use these implanted cells "not as intended" (To boost my psychic ability), even though this black operations human military group considers the cells to be their property. The military does NOT want to boost abductee psychic ability, because its already dangerously high. Especially, on someone like me, who is not on their payroll. That makes grabbing me in any future MILABS much more difficult, because I can feel when one is close. This was a situation where the military thought they were taking advantage of shared alien technology, without realizing they were not fully in control. You can't just get the superior pain resistance of Reptilian muscle cells, without bringing in other Reptilian aspects with that transplant. Especially, at an energetic level.

Of course, we keep hearing about mechanical exoskeletons, as the next development for enhanced soldiers. The problem is, anything mechanical and electronic can be hacked. Or, malfunction. And, anything electronic, even if shielded, is vulnerable to a strong enough directed EMP weapon. I've never seen a warrior class Reptilian wearing anything like one. And, I'm not aware of anyone else who has, either. If it was such a good idea for an advanced army, they'd all be using them.

They definitely have uses for the disabled. But, too many drawbacks. Much like the old scifi pipe dream of jetpacks. If you really want to enhance soldiers, you're going to need to go the same biological routes they once used to breed certain dogs and horses for war. Or, alter existing ones. Our military has quite a history of trying random ideas until something works. https://www.npr.org/2015/09/05/437555125/veterans-used-in-secret-experiments-sue-military-for-answers

Finally, I cannot personally vouch for testimony of Corey Goode or David Wilcock. However, I can corroborate much of what Emery Smith has testified to, in interviews with them. He did say he once saw a very large Reptilian being led around the labs, for a tour. I strongly believe that was a donor, looking at some of the tissues cloned from him, for eventual stem cell type transplant into super soldier test subjects. He may have even been the exact same one who ducked in to say hello, during the procedure I woke up in. https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/weird-news/698574/Emery-Smith-aliens-ET-UFOs-space-US-military

As always, I can be contacted on Twitter, at the name “panamaorange”. Or by email, through circlepanama@gmail.com. I do tend to respond faster, via Twitter. That's a backup email, checked once or twice a month. - Matt R.

BEK Caused a Suicide?

Robert in Indiana called in to tell of a strange experience he had:

“One time, a few years ago, we were out fishing underneath a railroad trestle, me and my cousin. And we were coming off of fishing. It was about 10 at night. We came up to the top of the trestle and there was a young kid standing up there. It was funny that you mentioned a hoodie (Lewis and his guest, David Weatherly, were discussing Black Eyed Kids) because he had a hoodie on. And he had asked us to come here. We walked over towards him and he said, 'Can you walk me across the trestle?' About that time, he had looked up and he had black eyes and his teeth were like almost came up to a point, which took us both back. And, right then, we said, 'No!' and we both got out of there. But when we were there, there was a guy across the trestle fishing.

Now, we get about half-way home which was a couple miles and we hear a helicopter. And what that was a life-line. The guy that was still up there fishing, he ended up diving off of the trestle, face-first. He committed suicide. (Lewis asks if it was the same time) This was exactly when we left. This boy had come up and asked us and he was across the trestle fishing. (Lewis asks about the kid) It looked very demonic. I mean he had a... It... He had the image of a kid, the body of a kid, but he looked... we knew as soon as he put his head up, we knew automatically this was something you did not want to be around. (Lewis then mentions that they quickly left and went home) Then the guy that was fishing right across from us, it wasn't even twenty minutes, maybe twenty-five, and that's when the helicopter flew over. We didn't find out until the next day that it was that guy that went to the middle of the trestle and dove off head-first and died. Automatically, I told him (my cousin) not to walk out to the middle of that, or near, that trestle.”

Metal-Clad Apeman, Firing Darts

This isn't my story but one a friend told me not long ago that I found fascinating, mostly because of the genuine emotion in his telling of it. The fear in his voice and on his face was visceral and contagious as he told the story even though it happened years ago when he was a kid.

Anyway, about 15 years back a friend of mine and his group of friends were out having their run of our little rust-belt town not far from a big city, doing all the things kids do before they discover drugs and girls and all the other things that take you out of that childhood sense of adventure. In particular they were out in this part of town we call the flats, originally zoned industrial but after the big fiber plant closed nature reclaimed the place for the most part, so it was fields and woods once you got past the big dilapidated factory that sits by the tracks. For obvious reasons the parents around here tell their kids to keep out of the area because it could be dangerous, but the thing that strikes me as odd about this part of town is that there have consistently been rumors that there is waste of some kind buried out there that's toxic, allegedly radioactive and/or related to the Manhattan project. It's become local folk wisdom that there's something out there you don't want to get into since my dad was a kid in the 50s.

My friend and his posse were playing manhunt, which I'm told is basically hide and seek, and so he was going through the woods looking for his friends who were hiding pretty successfully from him. He reaches a break in the trees, steps out into a small meadow, and that's when he saw it.

Across the field, about twenty yards away, there was something squatting in the tree line, clad in all silver and a bulbous helmet, looking almost like some astronaut from a D grade sci-fi flick. It saw him in the same instant he saw it, and leaped up in surprise, but there was something off and almost simian about the stance it took when it leaped up. Almost like a chimp in a spacesuit, but taller and close to human.

Just as quick it raised it's arm like it's going to point and somehow fired a tiny metal dart at my friend, which hit him in the hand as he turns to run. He ripped the thing out of his hand while running and screaming for his friends.

As he told me this with a shaky voice he showed me the small scar on his hand. I'm a skeptical person, and it's a cheesy story, but this is a guy who is not capable of faking the trembling voice and faraway look of someone who is remembering something that terrified them.

I insisted we go look around that place after hearing this, but we found nothing strange except a weird-looking warehouse type building closer to the freeway than the woods that was relatively new, and empty wilderness. To this day I have no clue what he saw, but I believe he did see something.

If anyone knows of any similar encounters, I'm more than interested. - Senecatwo

Conical 'Metallic' Implant Removed

North Vancouver, BC, Canada - I had a conical shaped 10mm long, 3mm diameter at the base object, removed from my left bicep in 2003, maybe 2004, at a hospital. I had a mole removed on my shoulder at the same time, as the hard object in my bicep that I had been playing with under my skin and grossing other kids out for a few years. Doctor thought it would be best to remove it. This object had seemingly either grown over time or grown instantly. It wasn't of huge concern to me years ago and it seemed to be a small item at first, and a larger more annoying item some years later. I used to play with it under my skin, pinching it and moving it around, never causing any pain.

I laid down on the table in different positions to get local anesthetic for having the mole and object removed. I remember watching the whole event take place, laying on my back watching the scalpel dive into my bicep like a shovel and cutting around in a circle to dig this thing out. Almost like it had its own catacomb? The tissue around it that looked like cartilage. The doctor had to cut this white tissue away from it like an elastic band that was wrapping itself around the cone object connected to me as well like spaghetti noodles. It felt like tugging as he was trying to remove it. It was all gnarled kind of like obsidian, but not shiny. More like an exposed tree root, but metallic. My doctor dropped it into a little glass jar and it made the exact sound of dropping a half inch screw into a jar. I'll never forget that 'ting ting' ringing sound it made. I asked him if I could get some results on that after they send it away, and he was kind of 'hush hush' I guess would be the word. He's not a talkative doctor; quite conservative and reserved. I don't know if he was puzzled, or inquisitive, terrified, but that was pretty much the end of the saga. The object left a nice hole where it was taken out. They sewed it up with stitches but it was a weird cavity that took the place of, almost like it was supposed to be there. The scar today is surprisingly small compared to the item removed that I remember playing with from the exterior of my skin, moving it about. There was a line of questions from my doctor later, but honestly nothing came to fruition. I never got any results, and time went by.

Some years later, on cable tv circa 2007 or so, I saw a guy in one of the dry states in the USA had found a meteorite or something conical looking that looked exactly like the object removed from my body, just way bigger. - MUFON

Alien Abductee David Eckhart Reports New Activity

Over the past month or so, I've been involved with a contactee / abductee case where the experiencer has been subjected to several unexplained pregnancies, in which each 'ended' without a clue. Some of the contact circumstances mirrored a few details that David Eckhart has documented over the years. I forwarded a text to David, since I wanted to discuss this case with him. To my surprise, David told me that the activity has picked up significantly around his residence. In fact, he was concerned for a particular female family member, who he felt was a possible target for the 'new visitors.'

These recent visitors consist of several Greys and a Reptilian, similar to previous encounters. But there were also 'Hybrid humans' accompanying the other beings. David has been attempting to communicate with the Hybrids, and has been able to secure a few photographic images. There have been no attempts, during these recent encounters, to abduct David or anyone else in his household.

At this time, I cannot go into detail as to why these beings have surfaced. But I will say that they have communicated some disdain with David, in particular his involvement with the female experiencer (who he has talked to, with my encouragement). In addition to that revelation, and to my surprise, these beings have acknowledged my investigation of the Chicago winged humanoids. From the beginning of my research with David, starting in 2010, these non-terrestrial beings have been well-aware of my reporting. I have been subjected to at least 2 personal contact incidents over those 8 years. I have been 'monitored' and noticed various attempts to intercede in my work.

I have felt that I was destined, in some degree, to investigate and report on the Chicago winged humanoid incidents. I have made these feelings known to several of my team since the sightings began. More and more, connections are surfacing.

Here are a few of David Eckhart's recent images that I can post:

Unknown Howling Beast

“Around 02' I was living in a place called Lawrenceville, Georgia, right outside of Atlanta. My ex-husband and I lived in these apartments that was gated. Well, he smoked so I'd tell him to go on the balcony. One morning, I woke up and he kinda looked freaked out. I ask him what's wrong then he told me that he was outside on the balcony smoking when off in the distance he heard a noise. See there was a train track nearby so... Anyway, he said that the dogs from the nearby neighborhood were barking. So he's kinda scared and then he said he heard it again this time it sounded closer and so he quietly slides back into the apartment. He hears the sound again and he claims it was so loud he felt the sliding glass door rattle. He said this time it was right outside the door. He compared the sound to the movie 'An American Werewolf in Paris' - the scene where the guys are being chased in the sewers and the werewolf howls.” - Death By Cake

Dancing Human-Sized Dolls

“I wanted to tell my story from when I was a little girl. It was in the 1960s, between 1961 and 1966 me and my little brother we're growing up with my grandmother and Wichita Kansas. He was an albino and had scarlet fever at birth which left him mentally retarded. Our room had two twin beds and his crib was in the middle of the beds. Being an albino, he was legally blind in the daytime and he could see better at night. So he tended to stay awake all night. We had a walk in closet in our room and at night human sized toys, a toy soldier with a drum, a Raggedy Ann doll, and a teddy bear, would come out of the closet and dance around his crib. Back in those days the houses had flowered wallpaper and I remember counting the flowers on the wall paper turning away from the dolls trying to go to sleep. I don't remember them making any sound but it was just their presence that kept me awake. This one on every night for about two years until he became too hard to handle and was institutionalized. This incident is what caused me to be interested in the paranormal from a child to an adult. I am 57 now, and I believe that he manifested the dolls to keep him company. I have seen other things and people off and on during my life. It tends to run in my family. Thankfully I haven't seen anything that really scared me. I am an avid viewer of your videos and I have yet to hear of human size dolls. MW."

'Floating Woman' Ordeal

I've been watching the following scenario, hoping there would be a follow-up. First, I offer the original post on Reddit from 2 months ago:

This is kind of long, although the actual encounter only lasted about half a minute, but I have to describe the scene and whatnot. Thanks in advance if you're willing to read all of this.

So my husband is a major skeptic, and that's why I was shocked at what he told me what he saw last night (or actually- very early morning, between the hours of 3-5am). I kept trying to get him to admit he was joking, but he was dead-serious and assured me that he definitely saw something he couldn't explain.

He said he woke up and couldn't get back to sleep, so he went downstairs. This is not unusual for him; he often wakes super early and doesn't go back to sleep.

We live in a row of townhouses. Our downstairs is at a 2nd floor level, with our living room/dining room/kitchen area, and a sliding glass door that opens up to a small enclosed deck, and overlooks a strip of wooded area that makes up our backyard.

He was sitting in a recliner that is positioned directly across the room from the sliding glass doors, and with nothing but the tv on (to his right, in the corner next to the glass doors), he could see the outside clearly enough, although there is a reflection in the glass doors caused by the light from the tv. I hope that my description of the layout of the room makes sense.

After about a half an hour/45 minutes of watching TV, some movement outside caught his eye. He says he turned to look and plainly saw a woman floating several feet away from the deck, just hovering in his line of sight, right over our backyard. Maybe 8-10 meters from where he sat. He says she didn't seem to notice him. She slowly floated across our backyard towards the right (his right) until she disappeared from his view. He didn't get up to see where she went. He just sat there and tried to process it.

Since we live in a row of townhouses, and the area is pretty well-lit, I'm wondering how many backyards she traversed, and if anyone else saw her. Unfortunately, it would be super weird to bring this up with any of our neighbors. We've only lived here for a few months and don't know anyone well enough to ask them about something so bizarre.

I asked him for as many details as I could when he told me about it this morning. He felt he could rule out sleep paralysis or any sleep-related hallucinations, as he had been wide awake for some time. No drugs/alcohol involved either.

As for the floating lady, she was not close enough and it was too dark for him to see any details, but she appeared to be a humanoid, female figure with long white/light-colored hair and a slim build. Clothing appeared to be a light, wispy material. Possibly a gown, but again, the darkness and distance didn't allow him to see any details. She didn't glow or emit any light, and looked to be completely solid. So basically, my husband saw what appeared to be an otherwise normal-looking human woman, besides the obvious floating/flying thing, which he says made her seem "ethereal".

My husband says he's been lost in thought/walking around in a stupor today because he absolutely doesn't believe in paranormal stuff, but he can't explain what it was that he saw.

When he first told me about it, he identified it as a ghost. But after mulling over the details, the closest thing we could think to ID it as would be some kind of fae, maybe? It's hard to know what to call a strange lady hovering around your backyard at 3am. Any ideas as to what he could have seen are welcome. - ivywylde

Then there was a follow-up posted 2 days ago:

Well, he's seen her three times since. Every sighting occurred during the early morning hours (3am-5am), and he would be wide awake during this time. She wouldn't always appear in the same spot, but usually it would be around our balcony. She also never looked directly at him. I have never seen her, but a couple weeks ago I woke up and went downstairs with him, and he made me eggs and toast. I was sitting on the couch with him when suddenly he shout-whispered: "LOOK! There she is!" But it was too dark for me to see anything without my glasses, and he said she had vanished as soon as he said something.

Last night something very different happened. I fell asleep on the couch, but my husband was awake watching TV. Around 1:45am (earlier than usual) he shook me awake, and he was clearly upset. He told me she showed up again. He said he felt "strange", like he was being watched, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw her right next to him. This time she was standing on the seat of the couch, bent over, with her face inches from his. She vanished as soon as he noticed her, but he was still very shaken by the experience. He asked me to come over to his side and snuggle him (I had to sit right where she was standing, yikes). And when I laid my head on his chest, his heart was pounding.

I asked him if he wanted to go back to our room upstairs, but he said no. When he calmed down a bit, he told me that he felt like he might've scared her just as badly as she scared him. He thinks maybe she was just being nosey and went in for a closer look (reeeal close), not expecting to be seen. Which makes me wonder if she's done it before, and checked us out while we were asleep. Ughhhh...

Even though she scared the sh*t out of him, he feels like she's harmless, but I don't know. This last incident seems aggressive to me. I think I would feel a lot better if I knew WTF she is (Fairy? Alien? Hallucination?) and what she wants. But I don't expect to have the answers to these questions anytime soon, if ever. - ivywylde

NOTE: I believe that the husband may be a medium (thus, a beacon)...and that he has suppressed any thought of the unexplained until now. It was revealed that he had a STEM education, so that may be a factor. I have offered my help to the poster, if they seek consultation. Lon
