PROJECT: ABDUCTION REPORT
|
||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
|
||
|
PURPOSE: The obtaining and compilation of Abduction Cases.
|

|
||
|
PERSONS/ORGANIZATIONS INVOLVED:
|
||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
Budd Hopkins, Dr. David M. Jacobs, Mutual UFO Network (MUFON).
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is a message with an extraordinary request for you.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In 1964 the National Investigations Committee on Aerial
|
||
|
Phenomena (NICAP) issued a compendium of information about
|
||
|
UFOs called "THE UFO EVIDENCE". This enormously influential
|
||
|
and useful volume drew together the various aspects of
|
||
|
sightings and witnesses into a systematic and powerful
|
||
|
testament to the reality of UFOs. It was used to educate
|
||
|
congressmen and the public alike and it helped change the
|
||
|
direction of UFO research.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Now we have the opportunity to proceed with a project
|
||
|
that promises to be even more powerful and influential. Budd
|
||
|
Hopkins and Dr. David Jacobs are project directors, in
|
||
|
participation with The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), of a major
|
||
|
effort to bring together the complexity and variety of the
|
||
|
abduction phenomenon. The project calls for a compilation of
|
||
|
abduction cases from around the country investigated by as
|
||
|
many UFO and abduction researchers as possible. It is hoped
|
||
|
that new patterns will be identified, new questions can be
|
||
|
asked, and new directions for research can be developed. A
|
||
|
compendium of this type can provide authoritative evidence of
|
||
|
the reality of the phenomenon for UFO researchers, scientists,
|
||
|
members of the therapeutic community, and skeptics.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Obviously this type of endeavor depends on the
|
||
|
cooperation of the entire UFO research community. Without
|
||
|
your help it cannot be done. The time has come now to work
|
||
|
together in a cooperative effort for the good of UFO research.
|
||
|
It is only together that we can make substantial headway into
|
||
|
deciphering the mysteries of this most important phenomenon.
|
||
|
Both Budd Hopkins and Dr. David Jacobs will be contributing
|
||
|
their cases and I hope that you will want to make your own
|
||
|
contribution so that you can be part of this historic
|
||
|
undertaking.
|
||
|
Additionally, those of you who have had an abduction
|
||
|
experience, or are aware of any person or persons who have had
|
||
|
an abduction experience, are requested to also become involved
|
||
|
in this endeavor. Any information you deem to remain
|
||
|
confidential will remain so, as you will be dealing with
|
||
|
persons of very high professionalism and credibility.
|
||
|
|
||
|

|

|
|
||
|
SUBMITTING ABDUCTION REPORTS:
|
||
|
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
||
|
The following information is broken down into two
|
||
|
sections:
|
||
|
|
||
|
1. Researchers/Investigators who have been involved in the
|
||
|
research of abduction cases.
|
||
|
|
||
|
2. Individuals who have had an abduction experience, or are
|
||
|
aware of someone who has.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A. Researchers/Investigators - The cases should be as complete
|
||
|
as possible. Short fragments are acceptable, but would prefer
|
||
|
comprehensive cases. "Multiple" cases, in which abductees see
|
||
|
others abducted, nonabductees see others abducted, or two or
|
||
|
more people are abducted at once, are important for inclusion.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Documentation should accompany reports. Names (or pseudonyms)
|
||
|
along with the age, sex, and pertinent information about the
|
||
|
abductee, e.g., physical infirmities, ethnic background, etc,
|
||
|
should be sent. Include the time, place, and date of the
|
||
|
abduction. All names and addresses will be confidential. It
|
||
|
is also important to send supporting material like how the
|
||
|
abductee first suspected that he/she was involved with the
|
||
|
abduction phenomenon, where the abductee went for
|
||
|
investigation, and so on.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If possible, please send a transcript of the hypnotic
|
||
|
regression, and/or non-hypnotically recalled interview. If it
|
||
|
is not possible to provide a transcript, copies of audio and
|
||
|
video tapes will be accepted. If a taped account is used,
|
||
|
transcripts will be made by us and given to the investigator
|
||
|
at the project's conclusion.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Please include your name, address, and phone number along with
|
||
|
information about your years of investigative experience and
|
||
|
any other biographical data that you deem appropriate. If
|
||
|
your cases are used, you will be asked to sign a release
|
||
|
allowing us to publish them.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Either Budd Hopkins or Dr. David Jacobs will be happy to
|
||
|
provide their professional opinion about the methodology
|
||
|
employed in your case, if you so desire.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Please send your cases either to:
|
||
|
|
||
|
Budd Hopkins David Jacobs
|
||
|
246 W. 16th Street - or - 607 E. Gravers Lane
|
||
|
New York, NY 10011 Wyndmoor, PA 19118
|
||
|
|
||
|
We are looking forward to working with you on this most
|
||
|
important project.
