Ep.308 The Newtongrange Encounter
Published: November 17, 2024
Tonight’s guest is Anne Calling from Midlothian, Scotland. In 1978, a group of five childhood friends in Midlothian, including Anne, Pamela, and Mary, experienced a traumatic encounter during a walk along an old railway line in Newtongrange. They describe encountering a three-foot-tall creature with bright yellow eyes, greenish-brown skin, and no visible mouth. The creature communicated telepathically, advising them not to be afraid. Following this, the friends later found themselves in a nearby field with no memory of how they got there. This incident left them with lasting psychological effects; Anne, in particular, has suffered from night terrors for over 40 years, suspecting these might be related to being aboard a UFO. The group remained silent about the event for decades due to fear of ridicule, but now they feel compelled to share their story. Pamela and Mary have been kind enough to send in recordings of their versions of the experience, which are also included in this episode.
