THE ENTITIES
Initial Findings of the Abduction Transcription Project
A MUFON Special Report by Dan Wright
Part I
Part 1 of 6
In the Spring of 1992, MUFON launched an ambitious project to
compile transcripts of audiotaped hypnosis sessions and conscious-recall
interviews with claimed abduction experiencers (hereinafter the
"subjects").
A year later, the Fund for UFO Research joined the effort. By
agreeing to divide the costs with MUFON for a sophisticated computer
system, FUFOR underscored the need for comparative analysis of all
reported factors in the verbatim transcripts.
With an ever growing number of cases on record and a powerful
computer now in place to conduct multi-factor analyses, future updates
will begin to address the question "Who does what?" This initial report
is limited in scope, presenting data for each descriptive element
without factoring by entity type or other variable.
The findings are based on 317 transcripts derived from thirteen
abduction researchers.(1) Most of the subjects were hypnotized and/or
interviewed on multiple (or even numerous) occasions. Consequently, the
317 documents, each from a single session, comprise 95 separate cases:
27 males, 58 females, and 1O cases with both male and female subjects.
It is not the author's intent to imply statistical significance for any
of the results that follow.
PREFACE
Abduction cases involve widely varying descriptions of entities,
surroundings, medical and other procedures, communications with the
beings, and post-event effects. However, similarities among many
accounts are striking.
This, the first of two parts, addresses typical abduction sites;
precognition of an episode and familiarity with a being; vehicle types;
how subjects are transported and the resulting effects; features of the
examining room; odors detected; recognition of other abductees and the
appearance of the entities, including their garments and locomotion.
In this report, a "case" includes all abduction-related events
in a subject's life. Families or roommates ar also considered a single
case except wherein an individual had separate CE-4 episodes apart from
the shared living arrangement. The data below frequently express the
number of "subjects" to which an abduction factor applies. In such
tallies, every subject represents a discreet case.
For some factors, the total of all input exceeds 100% of the
cases reported, since many individual subjects have encountered more
than one type of entity or circumstance. The terms "entity," "being" and
"alien" are used interchangeably, as are "vehicle," "ship" and "craft."
ABDUCTION SITE
In a great majority of the 95 cases, the subjects indicated that
their own residence (generally the bedroom) was the abduction point.
However, 15 subjects have also (or instead) reported some other
location. Ten of those were taken from their automobiles and six from a
cabin or campsite.
UNSEEN PRESENCE
Whether purposeful or inadvertent, over a fourth (28%) of the
subjects in the study have sensed an alien presence other than visually.
This often occurred in the hours, minutes or seconds before visual
confirmation. In other cases, an unseen presence was felt in the midst
of a cluster of episodes but with no known CE-4 on that night.
The recognition was sometimes obvious -- an electrical tingling,
a buzzing or beeping in the person's mind, rappings and other
"poltergeist" activity. In a few cases, the subject "just knew" that the
intruders were present.
FAMILIARITY
From prior events, presumably, many subjects recognized their
abductors -- or one in particular -- a factor which David Jacobs has
called the "familiar being."(2)
While common, the initial results of this study suggest it is
far from a universal aspect. In the 95 cases thus far recorded, the
subject told of recognizing one or more entities in 34.
Relatedly, ten subjects telepathically heard their own names
spoken by a being. In 18 other cases, the entity told the subject (s)he
was "chosen " "special" or "protected"' in some unspecified manner.
Taken together, these three factors (familiar beings, hearing
one's name, and selection or protection) account for 44 cases.

Part 2 of 6
VEHICLE SIGHTED
A telling point concerning the study findings to date: Only a
small majority (55%) of the subjects had _ever_ sighted an anomalous
object (i.e., excluding simple nocturnal lights) -- whether during an
abduction scenario or any other time.
Table 1 shows the basic vehicle shapes reported among the 31
cases in which an object of any _specific_ shape was discerned.
SUBJECT TRANSIT
No doubt surprising to some readers, a clear majority of the
study's subjects had no recollection of ever going to or returning from
a ship. This poses obvious questions for ensuing research.
Of those who did recall the transit, four mentioned a small,
peculiar capsule in which they were placed. Levitation, though, was by
far the more frequent mode, cited in 33 cases.
In 17 cases, usually beginning outdoors, the subject was raised
bodily into the air by a beam of light. In 20 cases, the person was
lifted out of bed and through a closed window (or screen), door, wall or
ceiling -- generally without sensing a surrounding light.
DIZZINESS/NAUSEA
Twenty subjects reported feeling either dizzy or nauseous at
some point in an episode. This was most often associated with transit
via levitation.
EXAMINING ROOM
Very often, the first area viewed onboard the ship was a hallway
or tunnel. This feature, which played a part in 35 cases, was sometimes
quite lengthy and usually curved. Soon, however, most subjects entered
an examining room that was fairly stark in appearance, likened to the
office of a doctor or dentist.
The room's shape has been described in 29 cases. In 25 of those,
it was said to be either round(ed) or domed. This, together with curving
hallways, coincides with the preponderance of discoid vehicles in the
study. Notably, nine subjects remarked on an especially large room with
either numerous examining tables or amphitheater-type seating.
Coloration of the room was mentioned in 31 cases. White was
dominant in 18, while grey (or metallic) was the theme in eleven.
Curiously, in three a room with black walls was mentioned.
Thirty-two subjects remarked on the relative luminosity onboard.
A very bright room was found in 25 cases, but in 13 there was a dim or
dark room. Obviously, then, a few subjects encountered both.
Room furnishings included variations on many built-ins and items
of furniture in our daily lives. The centerpiece was nearly always a
table (or tables), specifically mentioned in 52 cases and implied in
most of the remainder. Typically it was hard, flat, rather narrow, and
supported by a single pedestal. In a few instances, the table was
raised, lowered or folded like a living-room recliner. Other furnishings
frequently seen were kitchen-type counters and/or cabinets, as well as
computer panels and screens. Table 2 details these and other items.
ODORS
In 18 cases, the subject detected some specific aroma other than
a basically clean smell. Nothing in particular dominates the data, but a
couple bear mention. Four subjects apparently smelled the burning of
their own hair or tissue, while six remarked on a foul odor emanating
from the beings themselves.
OTHER SUBJECTS
Abduction events are thought by many to be solitary experiences
for the human subject. Yet in 30 cases (nearly a third of the total) one
or more persons were seen in the vehicle and assumed -- from their state
of dress or demeanor -- to be fellow abductees. Usually there was no
communication whatsoever among the subjects. Ambiguous but fascinating,
a few thought they recognized a certain person from previous episodes.
ENTITY SKIN TONE & QUALITY
"Greys" have gained status as the garden-variety alien in
abduction lore. And while 38 subjects in the study have encountered grey
(or grey-white) skinned entities, another 19 describe the abductors as
absolutely "white" (not to be confused with Caucasian). In one case, the
subject was emphatic by stating "Clorox white."
Neither greyish nor whitish aliens dominate the study's files,
though. Dark-skinned entities were seen in 18 cases; blue or grey-blue
in eight; and green or grey-green in seven. Beings with an aura (or
"glow") obscuring the actual exterior were present in 13 cases. And five
subjects reported a "shadow-like" entity that might not even be
tangible.

Table 3 is a breakdown of entity skin tones.
Certain qualities associated with an entity's skin have been
reported in significant numbers. In six cases, the epidermis was said to
be "translucent" or "thin" and the underlying dermis (sometimes
described as a grey gel) thereby visible. This might account for some
confusion here and there as to whether a given entity was "white" or
"grey" toned.
In 17 cases, the subject reported a "smooth," "plastic," "vinyl"
or "shiny" skin. This was usually attributed to the diminutive "worker
bee" types rather than to the taller one(s) in charge.
Fifteen subjects mentioned seeing one or more entities who were
prominently wrinkled. These were sometimes referred to as "old ones" and
thought to be important figures.
Thirteen persons mentioned that a being's touch (often as part
of examining procedures) was cool or cold thereby prompting questions of
whether such types are warm-blooded by our standards.
ENTITY HEIGHT & BUILD
Subjects in 66 cases remarked on the relative height of their
captors. Few people are in fact good judges of same, and in many
instances the estimate was from a prone position in bed or on a table of
unknown elevation onboard.
Nevertheless, in 57 of the 66 cases at least one entity type was
depicted as "short," typically between 3 and 4 1/2 feet. Also, in 47
cases there was mention of a "taller" entity -- either taller than
another type in the experience or of roughly adult human proportions.
And in ten cases there was a "tall one" -- at least 6 feet and more
often over 7 feet.
Forty-four subjects remarked on the entities' stature. In 39
cases, there was a "skinny" or "frail" being. Two subjects indicated
someone of normal human build. And ten spoke of a being who was
"stocky," "muscular," "wide" or "stout".
FACIAL FEATURES
Oversized eyes, typically almond-shaped and uniformly black,
have certainly been the norm in the literature. But that description is
not exclusive. In 11 cases within this study, a distinct pupil, iris
and/or sclera (whiteness surrounding the iris) was noticed. In three of
those, the being was said to have "cat's eyes" (i.e, vertical-slit
pupils).
Basic eye color, among the 44 cases reporting, was described as:
* black (or.dark) - 35
* green - 4
* blue - 3
* brown - 3
* gold 2
As to the nose, an indistinct rise above two small nostrils was
indicated in 30 of the 33 cases reporting on same. One subject said it
was pointed. Another five thought that a particular entity type was
without a nose of any sort.
Twenty of the 25 subjects who reported a being's mouth indicated
either a line (or "slit") with no lips or said simply that the orifice
was small. However, in three cases it was described as a "hole" (or the
letter "O"), while two subjects believed there was no mouth at all.
There was mention of the entities' ears, or absence thereof, in
25 cases. Eighteen said there was nothing visible. Three noticed a
cavity in the side of the being's head, and six others described some
manner of ear lobe or protrusion.
ENTITY GARMENTS
Surprisingly, in 24 cases (55 percent of the 44 reporting on the
presence of garments) the subject alluded to a "robe," "cloak" or "cape"
on at least one entity. These were nearly always worn by beings seen
only onboard a vehicle and perceived as leaders.
Ever popular, however, has been the (loose-fitting) "jumpsuit"
or (form-fitting) "wetsuit," one or the other seen in 23 cases.
Disconcerting by our mores, in 14 cases certain entities (always
in lesser roles) were said to be naked. This might be a misperception in
some instances, in that certain light-colored, tight-fitting suits are
apparently almost the same color as the entity's skin.
Basic black (or dark without a color specified) was the garb
indicated in 21 cases. Conversely, 18 spoke of a white outfit. Silver
(or "shiny") was identified in six, while bluish silver (or bluish grey)
and brown were each mentioned in another four.
THE ENTITIES

Part 4 of 6
Insignias and accessories were not uncommon, but neither was any
one type predominant. Nine subjects noticed some type of emblem on a
jump-suit-type garment, usually identified only by its basic shape. A
belt was seen in four cases and a sash in two. Also, two entities
displayed a metallic pin at the neck of their robes, while one was
adorned with a necklace.
ENTITY MOTION
Certain entity types seem to always walk -- in the subject's
home, outdoors, and onboard the ship -- whereas others are seen only in
a "gliding" mode or other form of levitation. Many cases involve both
walking and levitating -- by the same or separate beings.
In 31 cases a being walked. In 21 of those no other form of
locomotion was ever apparent, but in the other ten the same or some
other entity levitated at some point. In all, gliding or other
levitation by an entity was present in a total of 25 cases.
Three subjects described a being's shuffling motion, not
specifying whether this was on or above the floor/ground. And two
indicated a "jerky" motion.
SUMMARY
Any one transcript -- stemming from hypnosis or a conscious-
recall interview -- is necessarily suspect:
- Fantasies and frauds have haunted legitimate UFO research for
more than 40 years.
- A majority of the cases in this study did not involve carte
blanche subjects. That is, they had read at least one or two
best-selling books related to abductions.
- Some persons are more readily and deeply hypnotized than
others, and some hypnotists might be more adept at eliciting
factual memories than others.
That said, and within the confines of 95 cases, the author has
been impressed by replications of certain details not previously
published or even widely discussed. When, for example, an entity is
said to have an unpleasant odor -- described by one subject as "musty,"
by another as "like wet newspapers," and by a third as "like wet
cardboard" -- one must sit up and take notice.
The second part of this report will center on the "leader of the
pack" as well as various types of entity communications and human-like
behaviors; restraining and altering the subject's consciousness; samples
taken from and pain felt by the subject, sexual elements; and physical
aftereffects.

Initial Findings of the Abduction Transcription Project
A MUFON Special Report by Dan Wright
Part II
Part 1 of 5
This is the second of a two-part report summarizing 317
transcripts of hypnosis sessions and interviews, comprising 95 separate
cases, garnered from 13 abduction researchers.
Part I addressed abduction sites; precognition of episodes and
familiarity with certain beings; vehicle types; transporting the
subject; features and odors inside; recognition of other subjects; and
descriptions of entity features, their garments and locomotion.
This segment describes subject restraints; alteration of
consciousness, mind probes and other observations; the "leader of the
pack"; entity voice qualities, communications and human-like behaviors;
devices and instruments used, samples taken and resulting pain: sexual
and reproductive factors; and physical after-effects.
SUBJECT RESTRAINTS
Of the 95 cases in this study, 61% of the subjects were
convinced they were restrained in some manner, especially while lying on
a table in the vehicle. Reasonably inferred, most of the reminder felt
the same effect, though not expressing it afterward.
Four individuals said they were physically strapped onto a
table. In 51 cases an unseen force "paralyzed" the subject. while in 22
there was a "numbing" (or "heavy") effect, either overall or on the
extremities. Certainly, there is an overlap among reports of paralysis
and numbing, though the force applied might vary.
ALTERED CONSCIOUSNESS
At some point in most abductions scenarios, the subject sensed a
change in his/her conscious state.
Sixteen subjects related an out-of-body mindset - not connected
to any such artificial state that some hypnotists use to enhance a
person's memories. Phrasings such as "aerial view," "away from my body,"
and "popped out" bring the point home.
Sleep was induced suddenly in 23 cases. Sometimes it was onboard
the craft and apparently just prior to a medical procedure. Often it was
the subject's last recollection of the event before departure or after
being returned to bed.
The most repeated manipulation of human consciousness, however,
has been a drugged-like state. Subjects recall having been "dazed,"
"confused," "catatonic," "stunned" or "in shock" through much or all of
an episode. This condition was articulated in 49 cases and probably
occurred in far more.
WATCHING & STARING
Intent observation of the subject aboard the craft is a very
common factor in abductions. David Jacobs characterized the element of
"staring" at the subject from very close range as a "mindscan"
procedure. (1)
From a fair reading of the 317 transcripts, it is often
difficult to ascertain whether the observation related was "staring" or
rather a sentry's watchful gaze from a reasonable distance.
Nevertheless, the attempt is made to divide this factor into "watching"
and the more intrusive "staring."
Half (47) of all subjects in the study indicated that one or
more beings were "watching" him/her intently at some point. This might
also have occurred in many more cases wherein the subject was unaware of
same.
In 39 cases, the subject felt a close-up "staring" by a
particular entity, who was always "the one in charge." In some of these
- but only a relative few - the subject conveyed that the purpose was to
probe the mind. Regardless of intent, it can be said with assurance that
most subjects did not especially enjoy the experience.
Conversely in seven cases the subject was left alone longer than
momentarily. None attempted to escape.
THE LEADER
In nearly one third (29) of the study's cases, a particular
entity was identified as having a supervising role. On occasion, this
status was accorded the one in charge of what might be called an "away
team" conducting the actual abduction. More often, it was either a
"doctor" onboard the ship who conducted extensive or intricate medical
procedures or an "old one" who oversaw the proceedings.
Whatever prompted the subject's conclusion this being was
clearly a "boss," And that denotes the basic notion of rank among some -
or all - groups of alien visitors. Parenthetically, such entities in
charge, likened to many human doctors and executives, were often found
to be impatient, humorless or both.

Part 2 of 5
VERBAL COMMUNICATION
Two-thirds of these initial 95 cases included mention of
verbalized, entity-to-human communication. Virtually without exception,
telepathy was the medium.
Some subjects have related messages which, they are convinced,
were conveyed in perfect English. Others have struggled to explain
receiving the (perhaps pre-lingual) essence of an entity's thoughts,
which the subject filled in with nouns, verbs, adjectives and the like.
In a few prominent cases, the subject recalls having had a long
and wide-ranging discourse with a particular being. Apart from those,
the content of communications by abductors was quite structured
and of three basic types: procedural, nonprocedural but related to
the event, and post-event related.
Procedural (or instructional) communications were always brief
and directly related to the subject's compliance concerning a medical or
other technical matter at hand. Commands such as "calm down," "don't
move" and "feed the baby" were typical and associated with 26 cases.
Nonprocedural mentions still concerned the event sequence but
were not directly connected to a specific procedure. Reassurance of the
subject (e.g., "it's all right" or "we won't hurt you") was by far the
most repetitious, offered in 35 cases. "Come with us," "stay here,"
"time to go back" and "sleep now" were likewise common. In total, such
comments were uttered in 46 cases.
Post-event-related communications were found in 23 cases:
"Forget" or "can't tell" (anyone); the opposite, "remember" (the
encounter); as well as vague instructions to perform some future
"mission".
VOICE QUALITY
A fifth of all subjects in the study remarked on the audible
voice of one or more being, always entity-to-entity communication.
Reported in six cases each were whisperings and chattering (the latter
denoting a language seemingly without vowels). Five other subjects said
they heard low-pitched sounds made up of either grunts or mumbles.
Importantly, though suppositions were made on occasion, no
subject claimed to understand any remarks made in the entities' own
language.
NONVERBAL COMMUNICATION
Nearly two out of five cases (37 in total) indicated receipt of
instructions or other information in a nonlingual form. These can be
divided into four categories: gestures, images, showings, and symbols.
Gesturing was evident in just four cases. In each, a being held
its hands up or motioned to the subject in a self-evident fashion.
Images - variously on a screen, in holographic form, or
projected into the subject's mind - were far more regular in the
sequence of events, appearing in 28 cases.
In nine of these, animal (e.g., owl or deer) was represented,
especially to subjects in their childhood, apparently to disguise an
entity's appearance at the outset of the abduction sequence.
While onboard, twelve subjects saw images of the Earth in its
past or future, from dinosaurs to earthquakes, devastated rainforests
and nuclear wars.
In ten cases the subject was given images of an extraterrestrial
world - rocky desert terrains, an oddly colored sky, whole planets or
solar systems.
The category "showings," occurring in a third of all cases,
denotes one or more tangible things intentionally shown to the subject
or, in a few instances, a tour of the ship. The most dramatic of these
involved "hybrid" infants - or incubators containing fetuses in
gestation - as viewed by 17 subjects. In 12 cases, the subject witnessed
hybrid (post-infant) children or adults.
HUMAN-LIKE BEHAVIOR
Alien visitors are usually said to be stone-faced. But,
contrary to the widely held idea that they are without feelings,
displays of human-like emotions (positive and/or negative) have been
conveyed in over half (54%) of the study's cases.
On the negative side, an entity's anger or arguing - with the
subject or other entities - was displayed in 12 cases. Fear of the
subject was deduced in seven; frustration, sadness, or threatening
demeanor in two cases each; and violent behavior in one.
Positive emotions were expressed in large numbers: caring,
compassion or love in 25 cases; friendliness in 23; humor (including
laughter or joking) in eight, and pleasure in reaction to the subject's
behavior in six.
Ten subjects made particular mention that a "leader" maintained
a stark detachment, showing no emotion whatsoever.
Table 7 details these and other behaviors.

Part 3 of 5
DEVICES & INSTRUMENTS
For purposes of this study, a "device" is a machine, seemingly
intended for a particular medical procedure t. (e.g., scanning the
subject's prone body). It is generally seen attached to a wall, on a
mobile cart or lowered from the ceiling. "Instrument," by contrast,
denotes a small, hand-held implement such as a syringe with attached
needle.
One or more devices were noticed by 46 subjects, while 44
described an instrument. Taken together, devices and/or instruments
were present in 61% of all cases.
It can safely be said that, apart from poking the subject's
vertebrae or twisting his/her joints as part of a "check-up," nearly all
medical procedures involve a machine, instrument or both. Based on only
the transcripts, however; attempts to describe such tools or their
specific purposes would be highly speculative.
SAMPLES
Twelve subjects recalled that beings collected tissue or other
samples. Ankles, arms, feet and the inside of the mouth were scraped;
nails and locks of hair were clipped: and incisions or "scoop"-type
gouges were employed to remove flesh. While many more subjects may have
been unaware of such collections due to altered state of consciousness.
it is odd that only this small number had specific memories thereof.
PAIN
Agonizing pain is widely thought to be a standard feature of
CE-4 cases. Yet, in 58% of the study's cases, none was ever reported.
Among the 40 cases wherein pain was a factor, no one area of the
human anatomy was a standard target. The most frequent were:
* cranium - 13
* nose/sinus - 5
* ear - 5
* back/kidney - 7
* vagina/uterus - 12
* leg/knee - 11
Localized pain may indicate an implant or excision. Moreover,
numerous transcripts imply that small objects have been implanted or
tissue removed without any discomfort to the subject. Readers are
cautioned not to draw unwarranted conclusions.
SEXUAL/REPRODUCTIVE ELEMENT
Nearly half of all subjects recalled, as part of their overall
experiences, one or more events related to human reproductive systems
and sexuality. These included harvesting sperm from males and ova from
females, fetus abortion, and moments of sexual orgasm.
Seven adult and teenage males in the study remembered an
apparatus placed over the genitals, followed by immediate erection and
discharge. For most, the episode was not recalled as pleasurable. It
bears mention that, in 30 other cases involving a male subject, no such
procedure was mentioned.
By contrast, among the 68 females in the study, 43 recalled a
gynecological or obstetric procedure. Given the subjects' usually
altered state at the time, it would not be appropriate to speculate in
this report on the purposes for such intrusions.
Orgasm or lesser sexual pleasure, by either men or women, was a
reported element in 13 cases.
POST-EVENT EFFECTS
Almost one-third of the subjects reported some type of physical
effect as a direct result of one abduction episode or another. Nose
bleeds resulted in 13 cases and scars in 12, half of those on a leg or
knee. [Note: General reporting of nose bleeds and scars apart from
known encounters have been excluded from these totals.]
Curiously, in four cases the subject was either told by an
entity or separately concluded that the beings' "reconstructive surgery"
had repaired some serious medical problem.

Part 4 of 5
SUMMARY
In this two-part report, an initial attempt has been made to
bring the average MUFON UFO Journal reader "up to speed." To the author,
one conclusion and some fundamental questions are immediately evident.
Conclusion: Numerous entity types have been visiting our planet
with some regularity. What is not very evident from the data herein, but
somewhat clearer from the transcripts per se, is that entities are
grouped into two or more types working together in the same craft,
usually with a strict ranking of duties.
QUESTIONS:
1. Do grey-, white-, tan-, dark-, blue- and green-toned
entities, not to mention extremely tall Nordics, have similar agendas?
2. Are differences in evolutionary development suggested by the
number and types of digits on entities' hands? By their ability or
inability to self-levitate? Between those who use "mindscan" (2) and
others who do not (or cannot)?
How does one justify two starkly contrasting impressions that
are firmly held by many subjects after multiple CE-4 episodes?
* A considerable number fervently believes the visitors exude
love and compassion for them as subjects and all of humanity.
* A smaller but enraged group is equally convinced that the
intruders are fundamentally evil.
The new computer purchased jointly by MUFON and the Fund for UFO
Research is the most powerful beast on the block. In the days (and
particularly the late nights!) ahead, it will be working overtime,
assisting the participating researchers to sort through all the data in
ways that were never before attempted.
As the first 317 transcripts begin to stretch toward a thousand,
and the current 95 separate cases approach 300, we will be in a better
position to answer these nettlesome questions. Let us all cross our
fingers that we have enough time left.
Special thanks go to Mark Williams, systems coordinator for the
project, who integrated the computer system, customized its software,
and created the insightful graphics in this report. And heartfelt praise
is due the dozens of dedicated transcriptionists, without whom this
information could never have been developed.
