Exploring the Varginha UFO Incident: Eyewitness Accounts, Aliens and Military Secrets Revealed in Brazil's High Strangeness Case

What if the nightmares were real?For decades, Erik Nanstiel lived with the creeping dread that something was happening to him—something hidden just beneath the surface of memory. Strange lights. Missing time. Haunting dreams that felt more like intrusions than imagination.Then came the moment when memory returned. And with it, a terrifying realization: he was part of something much larger—and far more invasive—than he had ever feared.Told with raw honesty and chilling detail, Angst in the Shadows is the true story of one man’s lifelong encounters with non-human entities. From childhood to adulthood, Erik was subjected to experiments, hybrid programs, and physical manipulations by beings that seem to operate outside human understanding—and without human consent.Part memoir, part investigation, and part existential reckoning, this book explores the trauma, transformation, and lingering mystery of alien abduction. It dares to ask: what do they want from us—and what are we becoming?BioErik Nanstiel is the author of Angst in the Shadows: A True Story of Alien Abductions, a harrowing and deeply personal memoir exploring his lifelong encounters with non-human entities. With a background in writing and graphic design, Nanstiel brings a visual and visceral lens to his storytelling. His work has been featured on Ancient Aliens and Dreamland with Whitley Strieber, and his case is the subject of official MUFON investigation. Passionate about uncovering the deeper implications of alien contact, he continues to explore themes of genetic manipulation, consciousness, and the future of humanity in both nonfiction and fiction.https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FG89W2DFhttps://www.angstintheshadows.com/ https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/alienufopodcastMy book 'Verified Near Death Exeriences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this explosive follow-up to The Meadow Project, Trey Hudson takes you deeper into the shadows of one of America’s most bizarre hotspots for the paranormal. Dubbed “the South’s Skinwalker Ranch,” this mysterious patch of land rivals its Utah counterpart in mind-bending phenomena: UFOs, bizarre entities, missing time, disembodied voices, portals, and other Unexplained Terrestrial Events (UTEs) that defy logic—and terrify seasoned investigators.But this time, it’s not just about the Meadow.Through extensive research and boots-on-the-ground expeditions, Hudson uncovers unsettling commonalities between the Meadow and other infamous locations—like the eerie Stardust Ranch, the enigmatic Marley Woods, and the legendary Bradshaw Ranch. Disturbing patterns emerge: vanishing beings, cubes from the ether, ghostly figures caught on film, and physical effects that linger long after the encounters end.You’ll witness hypnotic regressions that reveal abductions too bizarre to fabricate, chilling thermal images of creatures half-formed in another reality, and a closer look at the “boxes” that defy explanation—appearing from nowhere, seen by multiple credible witnesses, and caught on camera.Return to the Meadow isn’t just a sequel. It’s a revelation.Whatever is happening out there—it’s evolving, it's intelligent, and it's spreading...BioTrey is the current Director of the Oxford Paranormal Society (OPS) and the Anomalous Studies and Observation Group (ASOG).He grew up in Atlanta. While in school he was awarded Eagle Scout, the highest rank in Boy Scouting. While a Boy Scout Trey Earned the 50-miler award three times for backpacking and paddling trips in excess of 50 consecutive miles. In 1982 he was awarded a scholarship to attend the prestigious American Wilderness Leadership School located in Jackson, Wyoming. In 1983 he graduated from Norcross High School which is located just outside of Atlanta.He entered college at the University of West Georgia and decided to major in psychology. UWG is home to a world-renowned psychology department and one of the few universities offering degrees with a humanistic and transpersonal focus. At the UWG psychology program Trey had a chance to study with such luminaries as William Roll, Mike Arons, Don Rice, Chris Anstoos and others. When studying at UWG, Trey was awarded an US Army scholarship while a ROTC cadet and was inducted into two honor societies, Pi Gamma Mu and Omicron Delta Kappa.In 1987, Trey completed his bachelor's degree in psychology and was also awarded a minor in anthropology. He was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the US Army and branched as Military Intelligence.After college Trey worked as a private investigator investigating insurance fraud and also attended the Army Intelligence Officers Basic Course at Ft. Huachuca, AZ. In the Spring of 1988 he was certified as an All source Intelligence Officer (35D). He was assigned to the 372nd Military Intelligence Detachment and then the 337th Tactical Exploitation Battalion, both in the Army Reserves. An injury ended Trey's military career and he is now a disabled veteran.In 1989 Trey entered Federal Government service as a Security Specialist.

In a brilliant stroke, Keith Thompson takes a subject usually confined to sensational tabloids and reveals its surprising literary richness, intellectual energy, and symbolic depths. By offering a new, open-ended perspective which avoids the dogmatism of true believers and debunkers alike, Angels and Aliens invites readers to enter a fascinating world with profound implications for our understanding of the human spirit.It was Carl Jung who first spoke of the UFO phenomenon as "A modern myth in the making," and Joseph Campbell who insisted that the first function of myths is "opening mind and heart to the utter wonder of all being." Now Keith Thompson makes it possible for us to share that sense of wonder as he explores the UFO against the timeless backdrop of visionary experience: angelic vision, near-death experiences, shamanic journeys, religious miracles, and folkloric encounters with fairies.Angels and Aliens offers a compelling interpretive history of the UFO phenomenon, beginning in 1947 when the first reports came in describing nine disc-shaped objects moving in the sky “like a saucer skipping water.” In Thompson’s even-handed telling it is difficult to say which is more outrageous: the stories of temptresses from outer space disembarking for impregnation by sexually self-confidant farmers, or the government’s ham-handed explanations for ambiguous events that nonetheless did take place, having been confirmed by both radar and independent visual sightings.Thompson argues that the need for clear distinctions in the Western mind obscures the rich sense in which the UFO phenomenon becomes not less real but more so for its mythic, metaphoric, allegorical dimension. No matter whether the reported sightings were caused by literal aliens from another galaxy or summoned from some poorly understood dimension of the human psyche, we may come to fathom the distinctively modern longing to recover lost intimacy with deeper currents of the universe.Angels and Aliens prepares us for the provocative conclusion that, where mind and matter intersect, what we term reality may in fact be a limited spectrum within a much larger realm of possibilities.BioKeith Thompson is an author, independent journalist, talk radio host, former TV talk show host, and former U.S. Senate staff member. His articles have appeared in the New York Times, Esquire, and San Francisco Chronicle, Idaho Statesman. He is the author of Angels and Aliens ("the most fascinating book written on the subject" says SF Chronicle) and The UFO Paradox.https://www.thompsonatlarge.com/https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F8V6KWY7 https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/alienufopodcastMy book 'Verified Near Death Exeriences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

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 nonterrestrial 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 farfetched or ‘crazy.’His decadeslong 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 lifechanging 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.BioNigel Watson has researched and investigated historical and contemporary reports of UFO sightings. In collaboration with Granville Oldroyd and David Clarke, he has written several articles about phantom airships seen over Britain in 1909 and 1913. Their comprehensive study of the 1913 airship scare was published by the Fund for UFO Research (FUFOR) in 1988.A wider survey of these historical reports is contained in his e-book titled, The Origin of UFOs: Phantom Airships 1807 to 1917 (selfhelpguides.com) and he has produced another e-book titled The Flying Saucer Cinema (selfhelpguides.com). This looks at how the images and stories of spaceships and aliens have evolved on our cinema screens over the past 100 years.He is the author of Portraits of Alien Encounters (1990), Supernatural Spielberg (with Darren Slade, 1992) and editor/writer of The Scareship Mystery: A Survey of Phantom Airship Scares, 1909- 1918 (2000).He has written for numerous books, publications and websites , including How It Works, All About Space, All About History, Aquila, Fortean Times, Wired, Flipside, Strange Magazine, Beyond, Paranormal Magazine, History Today, Alien Worlds, Magonia, The Unexplained, Flying Saucer Review, UFO Matrix and UFO Magazine.http://www.talkingpix.co.uk/https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FGHRL111 https://www.pastliveshypnosis.co.uk/https://www.patreon.com/alienufopodcastMy book 'Verified Near Death Exeriences' https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DXKRGDFP Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
