||
|
||
It's late in the evening when a sudden and bizarre compulsion comes over
|
||
you to get some junk food at the local fast service establishment. Donning
|
||
attire sufficient to make you presentable at the local Seven-Eleven you
|
||
slip into your auto and begin your trek to satiate your hunger. And trek
|
||
it becomes! Not two miles from you home, along a dark segment of the
|
||
roadway you spot strange lights in the sky - headed on a direct intercept
|
||
path with your car. Your engine dies and the car glides to a halt. Mist
|
||
surrounds the car but you can dimly see some movement as a short form
|
||
approaches. Then you see it. A non-human creature with large "compelling"
|
||
eyes, huge head and little or no mouth gestures in your direction. You
|
||
attempt to scream but try as you might you cannot summon any movement from
|
||
your own body. You are somehow extracted from the car and teleported into
|
||
the hovering craft....
|
||
|
||
And so begins a typical scenario reported in the best-selling book by
|
||
author/artist Budd Hopkins. If you are into fantasy and science fiction
|
||
then this book is NOT for you. Yes, I said NOT as Budd Hopkins is relating
|
||
an account of a life experience. An experience very real to Kathy Davis,
|
||
the subject of his work "Intruders."
|
||
|
||
"Intruders" reports one bizarre account after another of the intrusion of
|
||
intelligent alien beings into the life of Kathy Davis. Her case began in
|
||
early childhood and continues into the future of herself and her children.
|
||
Even, it seems, to a child which is a hybrid between herself and the
|
||
alien beings. Only recently made aware of the experiences through the aid
|
||
of hypnotic regression, Kathy's story is perhaps one of the best documented
|
||
case events of this type. These happenings were first seriously reported
|
||
in the mid/late sixties by John G. Fuller in "The Interrupted Journey" and
|
||
most recently by Whitley Strieber in "Communion." Hopkins' new work
|
||
contributes much to the investigative reputation of the whole Abduction
|
||
Phenomenon. While Mr. Hopkin's literary style is not as polished and
|
||
refined as that of Whitley Strieber, this work is the first of its kind to
|
||
couple good investigative reporting technique with a sense of drama
|
||
that keeps the book in your hands and your eyes on its pages until it is
|
||
consumed. "Intruders" will intrude on your imagination and have you
|
||
looking over your shoulder any time you find yourself alone ... and in the
|
||
dark. "Intruders" will both scare you and infuriate you as you consider
|
||
the possibilities of a race of creatures taking liberties with humans not
|
||
seen since the days of Hitler.
|
||
|
||
Intruders. Get it. Read it. But be don't be surprised if you find that
|
||
this book conjures up strange and elusive memories. You wouldn't be the
|
||
first to have this book awaken memories, here-to-fore hidden from your
|
||
conscious mind, of a night of terror.
