"By articulating the ordeal of abduction in his uniquely brilliant and personal style in ALIEN ABDUCTION: ANSWERS, Whitley Strieber has allowed all of us to share in experiences that challenge ordinary reality and the meaning of life itself.” says luminary UFO researcher Doctor Jacques Vallee. “He has given a voice to thousands of witnesses in ways that other analysts have failed to convey."
Sharing the screen with Strieber, are a number of other alien abductees. Prominent among these is Eau Claire's Alanna Robelia, who relates the harrowing and enthralling details of her own otherworldly encounters. “I am grateful to director John Yost for creating a safe place for all of us to tell our stories and his willingness to be vulnerable by telling us about his own abduction experiences.” says Robelia. “I never would have imagined that what I thought was a memory of a childhood dream would lead me to the incredible experiences and relationships I have today.”
