A Minnesota man recalls an alien encounter and possible abduction when he was a boy and attending a family reunion near Land O' Lakes State Forest.
The following account was forwarded to me:
"I was
attending our family reunion at my uncle's cabin near Land O' Lakes State
Forest, Minnesota during the first week of July 1986. There were about 25
family members present, including my aunts, uncles, and cousins. It was the
first night at the cabin and all the children were set up in tents outside.
That night, my two older brothers, my cousin, and I shared a four-person tent
about 150 feet away from the cabin. Since it was so long ago, I've just
recently become more fearful of it.
We were all
sleeping. I guess it was around 2 AM. I was sleeping on the far side of the
tent and for some reason, I woke up in the middle of the night. I was lying flat
on my back, and I found myself looking directly into the eyes of something. It
was standing on my left near my head and appeared to be studying me before I
woke. The image of its face, which I can still picture vividly in my head, is like
other drawings that I've seen later in my adult life. Somewhat normal-sized
head, though large for its body. It couldn't have been more than four feet tall
with a grey/green wrinkly face and very small nostril holes. The nose was almost
flush with its face. The eyes. The frightening part about its eyes was the way
that it was looking at me. Or maybe I misunderstood its reaction to my terror.
It was wearing a collared uniform of sorts. similar to a trench coat that came
down to the ground with seams on the front. I believe that this being was
important. It was dark fuchsia/purple in color and appeared to be a dull suede
texture. The moonlight made his face and coat sort of glow. The suit had a tall
collar. I got the impression that this was a possible leader or overseer.
This all
happened in a few seconds. I remember being terrified and immediately trying to
scream but nothing happened. My brothers didn't wake. I just remember the very
serious look that came over its face as if I had screamed. His head tilted back
like he was scorning me, or that it was somehow disappointing.
The next portion
of my memory picks up shortly after. I remember being very cold, and wet, and
beginning to wake again. This time I am on the ground in the weeds about fifteen
feet from the tent. It took all of five seconds after waking on the ground
before I remembered the face that I just saw looking down at me from inside the
tent, and I let out a terrifying scream. I remember I screamed so violently
that I woke my aunt who was sleeping in the cabin over 150 feet away. I saw her
silhouette after she quickly flipped on the lights to investigate. I ran to the
tent and my brother was still scrambling to unzip the door. I remember the
sound of the zipper when finally opened it, and he reached his arms out and
pulled me in. He was asking me what was wrong. I was scared and confused. He
had me lie back down. As I lay there, I told him what I had seen in the tent
with us. He told me to just go back to sleep. I never told him that I also just
woke up outside. That wasn't supposed to be the important part!
The next morning
there were about ten other people who were talking and asking around if they
knew who it was that was screaming at 3:30 in the morning. No one would say. My
aunt chimed in and said she heard it too, and how she had quickly looked out
the window and couldn't see who it was. This also frightened me because I
thought it was apparent to everyone!
I went and found my mom and whispered to her that it was me, that "I screamed last night." She appeared worried and asked why. "I saw an alien." I remember the nervous pause before she whispered back "...don't say that to anyone, okay?"
I believe that there was an hour or more of lost time between the encounter in the tent and realizing that I was outside the tent and screaming. How did I end up outside the tent? How did I get wet? Was I abducted? I've never been able to answer this." K
