All Hallows is a very special season. It is much more that simply dressing up in costumes and watching scary movies. This week, Whitley Strieber honors both the close encounter experience and the moment when the veil between the worlds grows thin by revealing some new material about his early close encounter experiences that have made him think deeply about the whole meaning of the experience and exactly what is happening. There is a dark side to it, no question, and he makes some chilling revelations about how it impacted his own life. But this is a very deep thing that is happening. To embrace it as ‘good’ or ‘evil’ is not the right path to take.read more

Whitley Strieber appeared on Coast to Coast AM on Friday, August 16 from in the first two hours to announce the publication of his new novel, Alien Hunter. The book imagines about alien and human police working together, and Whitley speculated on the program that there might be some very real means of control involved in the way the interact with us. He told a chilling story of a group of possible abduction-murders that he believes happened, but that he has never been able to prove, and pointed out that they seemed to happen just once, over a period of months, and then to end. Was this because somebody put a stop to them?read more

This weekend, we offer two special programs. First, Whitley Strieber’s long awaited analysis of his short story Pain. Pain was written during the time that he had his 1985 close encounter experience, and reveals much of his unconscious reaction to what had happened to him. Over the thirty years since, he has learned a great deal more about the experience, and the insights that appear in this discussion are among the deepest he has ever reached.

Second, Whitley Strieber and Dr. John Mack became good friends after Dr. Mack became interested in close encounter witnesses. In November of 1999, Whitley interviewed Dr. Mack on Dreamland. It is a beautiful interview, and Whitley has added an introduction recalling Dr. Mack and their relationship.

When Whitley Strieber read the newly revised version of David Paulides’ Missing 411, he was profoundly concerned to discover that one of the most mysterious of the cases not only took place within a few miles of his upstate New York cabin, but possibly on the same morning that the visitors asked him to go with them, and he refused.

Of course, it may not have been the same morning and it may not even have been related, but listen as Whitley and David Paulides discuss the case in detail, and draw your own conclusions about one of the most provocative stories ever told on Unknowncountry.com.
