Interesting, I'll give it a read
Communion doesn't work. It goes against human nature. Marx was wrong. Simple as.
Is there a funny excerpt about the anal probing/rape you can post?
There hasn't been a single funny moment in the book so far (I'm 50% of the way through). Strieber is as serious as can be. I'm still not buying it. It does work well as a horror novel though, I'll give it that.

Genuinely frightening book if you know that so-called alien abductions are actually demonic encounters
Lol it is fiction... He got the whole idea from a movie called Killers from Space...
Where Streiber got all of his ideas...
This is the movie which Whitley Streiber plagiarised...Every aspect of the Streiber Saucer Mythology is presented here first. Whitley hasrefused to comment lol. But just watch: It is ALL here: Lost time, mysterious scars, post-hypnotic suggestions, telepathic communications, fragmented memories of medical treatments, government involvement, underground alien bases, warnings of future eco-disaster from which a few co-operative/"special" humans will be rescued... And above all, the eyes, the eyes....

It's a very boring and self-important book. Strieber has no evidence for any of his claims and comes across as a fabulist. it sounds like he had a bad dream once and has developed a grandiose pretentious self-narrative around it.
from bts of the movie adaptation with chris walken it seems like walken saw right through strieber and based his "over-the-top" performance on his actual experience with strieber
folklore is the same across time and culture - there's much more abductee-type stories in world mythology and folklore (taken to fairyland, the soul travelling beyond the body) because there's a limited number of things the human made has to work with and can imagine. i never get how people make connections between these things, it's just the general nature of stories you base it on things that came before it's not some kind of gotcha it's literally just how storytelling works...
I'm digging reading about UFOs and visitations and such. Is picrel a good follow-up to Communion?
He's a known con artist. It's been known since the first weeks.
classic alien abductee. begins semi interesting/compelling mostly as a modern ghist story, a few years later stops getting attention for five minutes and goes turboschiz and the number of visitations start piling up until even the minor credibility needed to make it an interesting spooky tale is lost
cool guy initially for genuine unfiltered schizoposting live on the air. then he had to have his own "sighting". after that he would let callers with absolutely nothing to say manipulate him by trying to relate to his story and he'd let it go on for half an hour.
Any Jacques Vallee gays ITT? Or Upton?
I want details. Strieber is too vague and doesn't detail his experiences enough. I want the descriptions of anal probing and experimentation and mind control and etc. The whole shebang. Best books for these details?
The Interrupted Journey is good, it's just the hypnotism transcripts with Betty and Barney Hill of their "experience"
For a more skeptical/anthropolgical account both 'They Know Us Better than we Know Ourselves' by bridgit brown and 'The Resonance of Unseen Things' by Lepselter are both great, especially the latter
Thanks broskie.
That picture will haunt me forever
>aliens try to abduct me
>I anally probe them
Win win
Anybody got a primer for Art Bell?
>Anybody got a primer for Art Bell?
i do not really understand why the fortean community loves art bell so much, he's quite an annoying interviewer who interjects too much and takes an overly involved, sometimes even grumpy and passive aggressive stance instead of jut letting callers tell their tories. it basically just depends what mood he's in if he even lets them tell their story or not. all the best episodes, like mels hole, are when he takes a backseat and lets the caller actually speak.
the other thing is people remember the really juicy weird cases like mels hole but the vast majority of art bell episodes are boring normie shit like near death experiences, are angels real, lights in the sky, ufo conspiracy, regular ass bigfoot sightings etc. the really high strangeness episodes stand out because they are the exception
It's so boring and basic, he just talks about "Jungian archetypes" and random cherry picked mythological figures. Literally no different or more well-written to jus reading schizoposts on /x/.
Also he barely hides his schmaltzy christian worldview and goes full evangelical in the later books, basic b***h murican pseud
