This week, we are talking about an absolute classic. The Pascagoula Abduction is a touchstone in the ufology community, and for good reason. On the evening of October 11, 1973, 42-year-old Charles Hickson and 19-year-old Calvin Parker told the Jackson County, Mississippi Sheriff’s office they were fishing off a pier on the west bank of the Pascagoula River in Mississippi when they were abducted by what they can only reason to be aliens. A media frenzy ensued that attracted interviewers and UFO enthusiasts all over the country and even the likes of J. Allen Hynek. We even get into what happened to Calvin on the 20-year anniversary and his hypnosis session with Bud Hopkins that followed. 

 

Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling is created for adult audiences only. The content and discussion in this show will necessarily engage with various accounts that include violence, anxiety, fear, and occasional body horror. Much of it will be emotionally and intellectually challenging to engage with. We will flag especially graphic or intense content so as to never put you in an uninformed or unprepared position. We will do our best to make this a space where we can engage bravely, empathetically, and thoughtfully with difficult content every week.
