The UFO phenomenon May Be A Shape-shifting Mystery

This episode I am talking about The theory that aliens are not a new phenomenon at all, but the modern face of something humanity has been encountering for thousands of years? From UFO sightings and alien abductions to ancient folklore about fairies, elves, angels, and other supernatural beings, the similarities are too striking to ignore. Drawing on the ideas of Jacques Vallée, John Keel, and other researchers of the paranormal, I look at the argument that the “UFO phenomenon” may be a shape-shifting mystery that changes form with the culture observing it. In the modern world, we see extraterrestrials and flying saucers. In earlier centuries, people may have seen the same phenomenon as spirits, divine messengers, or beings from the fairy realm. This episode dives into the overlap between UFOs, folklore, mythology, and high strangeness, asking whether the alien encounter is really just the latest version of an ancient mystery. If you’re interested in UFO theories, ancient aliens, fairies and folklore, Jacques Vallée, John Keel, ultraterrestrials, and the hidden history of paranormal encounters, this episode is for you.
