   PART 1   
      
      
   "Alien Abductions in the Gingerbread House"; by Dr. Karla Turner.   
      
        World renowned UFO researcher Jacques Vallee has repeatedly   
   referred to the similarities between UFO and abduction reports and   
   the stories of folklore and fairy tales.  I disagree with Dr.   
   Vallee on many, many points of UFOlogy, but here I will grant that   
   there is one fairy tale which does have something important to tell   
   us about the alien abduction phenomenon.  It is not, however, what   
   Dr. Vallee might think.   
      
        The story of Hansel and Gretel presents a lesson that every   
   abductee should heed.  These innocent children, wandering lost and   
   frightened in the forest, came upon a gingerbread house that seemed   
   to offer them shelter and sustenance.  The owner of the house, a   
   wizened old woman, was frightening to them at first, but their   
   hunger pushed the children to accept her offer to come inside and be   
   fed.   
      
        And so they entered the gingerbread house and promptly became   
   the old woman's captives.  Kept in cages, the two children were   
   abundantly fed.  It was not for their benefit, though.  In fact,   
   they were being fattened up for the oven!  The deceptive nature of   
   the gingerbread house and of the old woman's offer of food worked   
   quite well.   
      
        It is the deceptive quality of this story that holds a warning   
   for humans who are abducted by aliens.  Like Hansel and Gretel, we   
   are initially terrified by our encounter with aliens, but in too   
   many cases, our fear is overcome by the words of our abductors and   
   by the thoughts and experiences they present to us.   
      
        I, too, am an abductee, and my quest to discover the nature of   
   my own experiences led me into abduction research over the past four   
   years. Working with many other abduction cases, I have learned just   
   how basic the deception of alien actions can be.   
      
        My family and I also delved into our own experiences, both past   
   and present.  Barbara Bartholic, a dedicated UFO investigator from   
   Tulsa, Oklahoma, worked closely with us and helped us fill in the   
   gaps in our recollections of strange encounters through hypnotic   
   regression.  Ms. Bartholic, by the way, began her own research as an   
   assistant to Jacques Vallee in cattle mutilation investigations, so   
   her expertise in ufology is wide-ranging.  I have recently written a   
   book, Into the Fringe, about the startling and often disturbing   
   results of our personal investigations, and it will be published by   
   the Berkley Publishing Group in November 1992.   
      
        But my interest soon expanded past the merely personal, and for   
   the past several years I have worked as Ms. Bartholic's research   
   associate, exploring literally hundreds of sighting and encounter   
   cases with her. And what I've learned through this work has raised   
   far more questions than answers.  In fact, it has taught me to be   
   wary of those researchers who do claim to have answers.  I have yet   
   to hear of a single theory or explanation that accounts for all of   
   the data.   
      
        Some researchers have pointed out patterns of events in the   
   abduction experience, such as the physical examination, the taking of   
   sperm and ova, and the later presentation of a hybrid baby to the   
   abductee.  Other patterns include the training of the abductee in some   
   way and the delivery of a warning of some upcoming global disaster.   
   Yes, these events are frequently reported, as one researcher has said   
   in boringly repetitious accounts, and it is tempting to think that   
   the explanation for alien abductions may lie in these patterns.   
      
        So the researchers announce that the problem is solved.  The   
   aliens are doing cross-breeding experiments, UFOlogists tell us.   
   Never mind the overwhelming evidence against the viable   
   commingling of different species.  Or, we are told, the aliens are   
   here to save us from destroying ourselves and our planet through   
   violence, drug use, epidemic disease, pollution, and resource   
   depletion.  Never mind that these problems have grown worse, not   
   better, since the ETs began visiting us.   
      
        Or, most infuriating of all, we are assured that there are no   
   actual aliens, that our experiences spring from our own subconscious   
   turmoil or from our need for fantasy fulfillment. Never mind that   
   many abductees are young children, too young to be suffering from   
   such psychological disturbances.  Well, then, the resourceful   
   researcher counters, the imagined aliens must spring from some   
   collective human super-psyche that is mirroring our failures and   
   dangers back to us. This particular theory adores the archetypal   
   gray ET, because it resembles some sickly fetal form of humanity and   
   must therefore be an objectified warning of what our species is in   
   danger of becoming if we don't mend our ways.  Never mind that many,   
   many abductees have no dealing with grays, but instead are   
   victimized by robust reptoids and insectoids.  Not to mention the   
   totally human-looking blond beauties and black-headed, black-robed   
   clan with the widow's peak hairline.   
      
        No, too many researchers seem to find a theory and cling to it   
   in spite of data that contradict it.  And it is the ideas of these   
   researchers that dominate ufology.  But if the public had access to   
   the raw data, to the first-hand reports of abductees, especially   
   those unfamiliar with UFO-oriented books, magazines, and lecturers,   
   they would find a much less neatly organized set of patterns.  These   
   "virgin" cases--people uncontaminated by ufological literature   
   supply a staggering picture of human-alien contact events.   
      
        What follows here is an overview of these "virgin" reports, a   
   list of recurrent experiences that taken together gives us a close-up   
   view of what the aliens are doing here on earth.  This data doesn't   
   tell us for certain just what sort of creatures the aliens are, or   
   what their purpose here may be.  But it does tell us what humans are   
   experiencing and what they are observing in the actions and   
   capabilities of the aliens.  Every detail in the following list has   
   been reported by more than one abductee, and in many cases the   
   details have turned up quite frequently.   
      
   ABDUCTION "CHECKLIST".   
      
        If these reports can be believed--and there is no reason to   
   doubt the honesty of the reporters--the abduction phenomenon   
   includes the following details.   
      
        --   Aliens can alter our perception of our surroundings.   
      
        --   Aliens can control what we think we see. They can appear to   
   us in any number of guises, and shapes.   
      
        --   Aliens can take us--our consciousness--out of our physical   
   bodies, disable our control of our bodies, install one of their own   
   entities, and use our bodies as vehicles for their own activities   
   before returning our consciousness to our bodies.   
      
        --   Aliens can be present with us in an invisible state and can   
   make themselves only partially visible.   
      
        --   Abductees receive marks on their bodies other than the   
   well-known scoops and straight-line scars.  These other marks include   
   single punctures, multiple punctures, large bruises, three- and   
   four-fingered claw marks, and triangles of every possible sort.   
      
        --   Females abductees often suffer serious gynecological   
   problems after their alien encounters, and sometimes these problems   
   lead to cysts, tumors, cancer of the breasts and uterus, and to   
   hysterectomies.   
      
        --   Aliens take body fluids from our necks, spines, blood   
   veins, joints such as knees and wrists, and other places.  They also   
   inject unknown fluids into various parts of our bodies.   
      
        --   A surprising number of abductees suffer from serious   
   illnesses they didn't have before their encounters.  These have led   
   to surgery, debilitation, and even death from causes the doctors   
   can't identify.   
      
        --   Some abductees experience a degeneration of their mental,   
   social, and spiritual well-being.  Excessive behavior frequently   
   erupts, such as drug abuse, alcoholism, overeating, and promiscuity.   
   Strange obsessions develop and cause the disruption of normal life   
   and the destruction of personal relationships.   
      
        --   Aliens show a great interest in adult sexuality, child   
   sexuality, and in inflicting physical pain on abductees.   
      
        --   Abductees recall being instructed and trained by aliens.   
   This training may be in the form of verbal or telepathic lessons,   
   slide shows, or actual hands-on instruction in the operation of alien   
   technology.   
      
        --   Abductees report being taken to facilities in which they   
   encounter not only aliens but also normal-looking humans, sometimes   
   in military uniforms, working with the alien captors.   
      
        --   Abductees often encounter more than one sort of alien   
   during an experience, not just the grays.  Every possible combination   
   of gray, reptoid, insectoid, blond, and widow's peak have been seen   
   during single abductions, aboard the same craft or in the same   
   facility.   
      
        --   Abductees--"virgin" cases--report being taken to   
   underground facilities where they see grotesque hybrid creatures,   
   nurseries of hybrid humanoid fetuses, and vats of colored liquid   
   filled with parts of human bodies.
