Many of the UFO "saucers" described by witnesses are characterized as being discs of light that change shape and have the ability to pop in and out of vision. Reports about UFOs such as these are more paranormal in nature and are often ignored by investigators because they fail to fit the alien "spaceship" theory.
There are many close encounter UFO cases that involve contact with some type of intelligence that will often identify itself as an extraterrestrial, angelic, or sometimes the devil. It is in experiences like this that we should suspect an interdimensional being that is trying to cover its true identity. Islamic scholars describe the djinn as glowing objects that can change their shape and at times take on a physical form. We have many "UFO" cases in our files that describe encounters like this; for years they were labeled as "High Strangeness."' However, when the idea of the djinn is placed into the equation, these bizarre cases seem to make more sense.
The Voice of Deceit
A Qur'an passage says evil djinn will try to persuade humans by whispering in their ear.' That "whispering voice" in the ear can be also interpreted as a form of telepathy. This phenomenon is common not only in cases involving UFO contactees and other para normal experiences, but also in religious or mystical visions. Priests and other Christian clerics of the late medieval period in Europe believed angels whispered in the ears of men and women with a familiar voice to influence or guide them. It seems obvious these heavenly visitors chose not to appear, but only to speak, so as not to cause panic or fear. However, we must ask ourselves: are angels really the ones communicating with these "special" people, or are they really djinn? It could be argued that because angels and djinn use the same methods, one can't be entirely sure.
Since 1983, Phil has investigated countless UFO sightings and claims of "alien" contact in New York's Hudson River Valley. These are documented in his book Night Siege: The Hudson Valley UFO Sightings. At the time, Phil did not know what to make of the related contact cases-they did not fit into the overall "UFO sighting" picture. They were labeled as "high strangeness" and filed away. After reviewing them twenty years later, it is obvious some of these cases were in fact dimensional rather than extraterrestrial encounters, and may have involved djinn. One must remember that when we speak of "dimensional beings," we are referring to the djinn. In the case below the experiencer had a UFO sighting and later, contact with an unknown intelligence that was particularly careful to withhold identifying information.
Night Fright and Missing Time
The witness, whom we will refer to as Sam, was a thirty-year-old computer programmer at the time of the experience. On April 23, 1990, at about 10 PM, Sam was driving home on Route 164 in Patterson, New York, from a friend's house in nearby Fishkill. This particular road is very dark at night, as there are no street lights and very few homes. As Sam drove along the dark, winding road, he began to feel uneasy, like something bad was about to happen. He slowed down and looked into the woods on both sides of the road, expecting a deer or some other animal to dart out in front of him. Sam often got feelings like this in the past, and on more than one occasion, he would listen to this inner voice and take the appropriate action, only to nearly miss what would have been an injurious accident or otherwise unpleasant encounter.
On this night, Sam noticed a solid glowing object on his left, just above the tree line. The object was pulsating, and was yellowred in color. The lights seemed too low to be a plane, and appeared to be several hundred yards away. The pine trees along the road partially obstructed his view, so he continued to drive, but slowly. He came to a clearing and stopped his car and noticed that the object had gotten much closer to him. As he watched, the object moved directly over his car. Sam rolled down his car window and watched the object for about a minute or so. He decided he wanted to get a better look, and stopped the car and got out. He sat on the hood and watched this object, which he described as about the same size as a "minivan" and about a hundred feet above his head. The object changed in shape from an oval to a perfect circle. Sam reported feeling heat coming from the object as well. He was surprised to see five small figures gathering around the edges of the light as if they were looking at him. He got the impression that this object was some type of window, and although he saw only silhouettes, he was certain they looked humanoid in shape. The object dipped lower and seemed to grow in size. Eventually, it became so large and low that it blocked all of Sam's view of the sky. The object then began to move very slowly, and Sam was amazed that something of that size could move so slowly and be as silent. Sam's amazement gave him the sense that the object "was not part of our universe and [was] peering in from another dimension." Then, something strange took place: the next thing Sam remembered was driving down the road, the object completely gone. He did not remember getting back into the car, seeing the object completely pass over, or finding the road again.
When Sam finally arrived home, he discovered it was much later than he had thought. He estimates the entire sighting was under ten minutes, yet the trip home took him three hours. He had a difficult time sleeping that night and felt as if something was watching him from the dark corners of his bedroom. For the next week, he woke up in the middle of the night feeling very confused, in a cold sweat, his heart pounding. He somehow knew these episodes of night terror had something to do with the UFO he had seen. As the weeks passed, Sam found it very hard to concentrate on his work and was fearful of going out at night-he felt the UFO was waiting to get him alone in an isolated place. Sam also said that sometime after the sighting, he would wake up in the middle of the night and stare into the dark. He said he felt as if something was in the corner of the room, waiting for him to fall asleep so it could come and get him. This type of fear is not uncommon in such cases-many witnesses report feeling a personal connection with the UFO they see and feel strongly that some kind of entity is out in the night waiting for them to fall asleep so it can enter their homes and take them. This feeling may actually be some type of psychic connection with this dimensional intelligence.
For several weeks, everything seemed to return to normal. Then one night, near the end of June, Sam woke up to find his whole bed vibrating. He looked at the wall across the room and saw a circular hole forming that was jet black. Sam tried to get up, but to his horror, realized he was unable to move. He claims he was "levitated" off the bed and floated into the opening of some type of "vortex." Sam then found himself lying on a table in a dark room. Several beings were standing around him; the one near his left side was moving some type of instrument around his head. Sam tried to move, but every part of his body was paralyzed. He described the beings as short, with gray skin and round eyes. As he watched, the beings all changed in shape to a glowing light, then into a form that horrified him: they looked like demons with long pointed ears and very "ugly, gargoyle-like faces." They inserted something into his nose and navel that caused him a great deal of pain.
After the insertion procedure was finished, Sam was allowed to get up. One of the beings escorted him through a passage that glowed red. Sam got the impression he was in a cave, but thought that perhaps he had died and was in hell. At no time was there any spoken communication, but Sam knew where the being wanted him to go and what it wanted him to do. He was shown a panel composed of a grayish material that had "many projections" coming out of it. He looked around. Although the room he was in was dimly lit, he was able to see a corridor to his right that led to another room. The being then looked at him, and he got a strong feeling that he was not allowed to go there.
The entity who escorted him then put thoughts in his mind. Sam now knew that they were from another dimension and he received information that they were once on earth a long time ago and were in the process of working to come back. Their reason was because unless they did so, their race would become extinct. Then, without warning, Sam found himself back in his bed.
Sam believes the beings will come back for him some day, and when they do, he will not be allowed to return. His entire life h
as changed and he claims to be in some type of mental contact with the dimensional entities. Sam feels he is gathering information for them, and what he sees and experiences is somehow being transmitted. Sam said that although the beings were hesitant to give him detailed information, he knows they come from a desolate plane of existence, and they envy us because our planet is so beautiful. Sam said the beings are angry that humans are polluting earth as they themselves made the same mistake a long time ago, and have no real place to call home as a result. Sam said living here would be problematic for them, but they are slowly adapting themselves so that future generations will be able to live in our environment.
Sam said these creatures have considerable trouble understanding our emotions. They consider us an immature race that is bent on self-destruction. He feels the beings are using him in order to understand humans and how we react in different situations. Sam is convinced the beings he encountered that night are "emissaries from the devil," and they are out to destroy the human race and take over our world so that they can live here. As of the writing of this book, Sam has become a born-again Christian and refuses to have any further involvement in UFOs or other types of paranormal phenomenon. Sam's case is one of many in which the experiencer who was once an atheist scared or indifferent to embracing a religious belief, comes to fervently believe in an all-loving and protecting God.
Djinn seem to take the guise of alien extraterrestrials to hide their true nature. This is not to say that all UFO experiences are caused by djinn, but some experiences, like Sam's, may be ultraterrestrial rather than extraterrestrial.
A Master Trickster
The following case study involves "Ben," a man in his late thirties. At the time of his encounter, Ben had a family and a good job, and an interesting history of contact-he had experiences as a child. At the age of six, he once woke up in the middle of the night to see a creature standing at the foot of his bed. He described the entity as tall, with scaly skin that looked like an "alligator" with a green glow around it. He watched in total terror, too afraid to scream for his parents. The entity then looked at him and said, "In the future, I will come for you again and then we shall talk about how you may serve me." The creature's eyes flashed red. It turned into a cloud of black smoke and went right through the bedroom's closed window without breaking it. As soon as the "smoke" left the room Ben was able to move again. Crying in terror, he screamed for his parents. His parents told him what he had seen was nothing more than a nightmare and that it was not real. He wanted to believe them, but deep down, he knew the visitation really had happened. For the next five years, Ben had to sleep with several nightlights on, as he was dreadfully afraid the "monster" was going to come back for him.
After the initial paranormal experience as a child the rest of his life was normal, and as he got older he forgot about the threat of the entity to return. He got married at twenty-five, landed a job as a building inspector for the State of New York, and led a normal life. On his thirty-fifth birthday, he woke up in the wee hours of the morning and was shocked to see the same creature he had seen as a child, once again standing at the foot of the bed. He was so terrified he couldn't move-he was again paralyzed with fear. Ben couldn't so much as scream to wake his wife, who was sleeping soundly right next to him. The creature looked exactly the same, and when it spoke, its eyes flashed red. It was wearing what looked like a very thick suit made of some type of rubber. In an interview, Ben told us the creature was so horrible-looking, he was sure it was the devil. The being then said in a coarse, deep voice, "I am from another place, another planet if you wish. Do you remember me? I have returned and will be with you until the transition is made." Ben did not understand what the being meant, and still has no idea today.
The entity said his name was Orlis and that he was part of an ancient group of beings who have been around since humans were nothing more than "monkeys." Orlis said he would make amazing things appear in the sky in the next few days. Just before the creature vanished, Ben heard a voice in his right ear give a number of dates: September 28, September 30, and November 6, all at 8:30 PM. Sure enough, on all three dates, a large, glowing "egg" shaped object appeared in the sky over his hometown of Kingston, New York. Dozens of people witnessed the UFO, which was described as yellow in color and hovering and making circular motions in the sky. One witness said that "at times, the object would move so fast that it looked like a bright glowing `infinity sign' (a lemniscate) in the night sky. In anticipation for the next two dates, Ben called his neighbors just before 8:30 in the evening to watch for the "UFO" he knew would appear as the being promised. He was correct all three times: he and his neighbors watched the sky on those dates and at those times and saw the "glowing yellow egg" make its strange maneuvers.
The fact that Ben was able to predict when this object would appear was remarkable enough to warrant a visit by us. During our visit, five different neighbors corroberated his story. This was the first time in Phil's thirty-plus years of investigating UFOs that someone was able to accurately predict when a sighting would take place. Over the next few weeks, we would visit Ben quite frequently and with each interview, his story would get more incredible.
In our first conversation with Ben, he told us he was in mental contact with a being from another universe. He said this being purposefully arranged for the UFO to be seen by him and multiple witnesses. The being did this, he said, to prove the contact was real and he was not crazy. Ben was told he was contacted from a very early age and was specially selected to bring information to the human race from a race of ancient people that once lived on earth. Although the being never told Ben exactly where he was from, he did tell him he was part of a race that was non-physical, composed entirely of energy, existing in another dimension. The being that identified itself as Orlis told Ben that they were "responsible" for the human race and were trying to straighten things out because an experiment had gone wrong. They were correcting their mistakes by contacting certain people like Ben to give information to help our species.
Ben was in contact with the being on a mental level for several months, never actually seing Orlis in person. The communications became more frequent after photographs were taken. Orlis would wake Ben up at all hours of the night to "talk" and give him information about future events and UFO sightings around the world. These conversations became a major concern for his wife and two children, who would witness Ben having a conversation with nothing but the air. Eventually, Ben learned that he did not have to talk-Orlis could read his thoughts. Soon after, all their conversations were on a telepathic level, Ben thinking the questions and Orlis giving him an immediate answer.
Unfortunately, the information Ben received never really checked out. For example, one night Ben called Phil very late to tell him there were going to be massive UFO sightings over France and major earthquakes and natural disasters within the week, but nothing happened. At that point, it seemed the only correct information Orlis gave Ben was in his initial contact about the UFOs that would appear in the sky. As stated above, this was indeed verified-a number independent witnesses verified the sightings and the local paper carried a number of stories.
After a time, communications with Orlis became so frequent they began to interfere with Ben's job. While driving his car, Orlis would tell Ben he was going the wrong way, and so Ben would turn around, only to get lost and go on wild goose chases for hours before reaching his destination. One night, Orlis told Ben there was going to be a starship landing in Connecticut, and they would finally meet face-to-face. Ben got into his car in the wee hours of the morning, and began driving to the location Orlis had given him. He did not really want to go, but by then, he knew that if he disobeyed Orlis' "command," he would torment Ben all night and prevent him from sleeping.
Ben drove in circles for an hour until Orlis directed him to a dirt road and a fenced area just outside Pawling, New York. He was instructed to climb the fence, ignoring the "No Trespassing" signs posted around the perimeter. Aft
er climbing the fence, he walked through a field, eventually seeing some structures and huge antennas ahead. He made his way toward them when he suddenly heard a noise and was blinded by a brilliant white light. The light was so bright, he couldn't see anything; he stood motionless, waiting to find out who had found him. Ben was sure the light was coming from a ship and that the outline of the figure approaching him was Orlis, but it was not. Ben had actually been stopped by a military security patrol. Orlis had directed Ben to a secret government installation we later found out was partially operated by the National Security Agency. Ben was arrested for trespassing and his wife was called to come and get him the next day. When Ben told his fantastic story about his communications with Orlis, he was forced to get psychiatric help and was placed on several drugs. Ben told us that when he started taking the drugs, communications with Orlis stopped, but he can still feel his presence. He knows that if he does stop taking his drugs, the communications will continue where they left off.
Ben's case is bizarre, but not unique. The whispering voice in his ear, the mixture of true and false information, the torment-all point to contact with djinn. Often, djinn entities may approach selected individuals and use extraterrestrial guises. To gain a person's confidence and interest, the djinn may say the individual was specially selected to help the human race save itself from some worldwide catastrophe or other form of widespread destruction. The combination of urgency and trust opens the person up, allowing a djinni to continue its link with this reality and in the long run, assume direct control of the person.
