70. Taken: The Betty and Barney Hill Incident

from Weirder After Dark · host WeirderAfterDark

It was a quiet September night in 1961 when Betty and Barney Hill made the fateful decision to abandon their honeymoon and drive home from Montreal to Portsmouth, NH. What should have been a smooth 6-hour drive turned into America's first abduction stories. Join us as we dive into 3 hours of missing time, a strange craft in the sky, creatures that poke and prod, strange markings on their car, and all the REAL EVIDENCE that suggests this could have happened. We'll walk through it all as we try to get to the bottom of what really happened that night. Don't turn off the lights, gang.... cause this one will get under your skin and have you thinking for a while! References:Friedman, Stanton T., and Kathleen Marden. Captured!
