David Stephens and Glen Gray, both in their early twenties, were
night persons. Each worked at a late night-early morning job,
Stephens in a poultry-processing plant, Gray at a wool mill.
Thus it was not unusual for them to be up at odd hours, even
when they were not working. And so at 3 a.m., October 27, 1975,
they were sitting in the trailer they shared in Norway, Maine,
listening to the radio. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary -
until something exploded outside.
The two young men rushed to the door but saw nothing. Briefly
puzzled but soon dismissing the matter from their minds, they
decided to go for a short drive to nearby Lake Thompson. About a
mile down the road, the vehicle abruptly turned on a back road
heading directly into the town of Oxford. Gray, who had a firm
grip on the steering wheel, was startled. The car seemed no
longer under his control but someone else's.
Two minutes later, after a strangely smooth ride, they passed
through Oxford. Under ordinary circumstances the trip over the
rugged five-mile stretch of road would have taken them from
seven to 10 minutes. The car continued through the town and down
the eastern side of the lake.
A mile south of Oxford, Stephens and Gray saw a herd of cows
resting on the ground and shaking their heads from side to side.
The two thought this was peculiar.
A few minutes later they looked to their left and saw two white
lights shining across a cornfield and onto the road. Suddenly
the lights rose into the air. Thinking they had just seen a
helicopter, Gray stopped the car and turned off the engine. He
and Stephens rolled down their windows and listened for the
familiar sound of a helicopter engine. But there was no sound.
And when they got a clear look at it, they realized it was like
nothing they had seen before.
Twenty to 30 feet from their vehicle, the object was large,
long, and cylinder-shaped. Around its body were assorted green,
blue, and yellow lights, but these suddenly went out as the
mysterious craft ascended below a row of trees in front of the
field.
This was too much. Gray started the car and roared down the
road, the UFO in pursuit. The car was bathed in brilliant,
almost blinding light.
The next thing they knew, Stephens and Gray were a mile farther
down the road. The car was stopped, their windows were rolled
down, and the doors were unlocked. Their eyes felt as if they
were on fire. Gray's eyes, according to Stephens, were "all just
orange." Stephens's eyes, Gray later told investigators, were
orange except for dark pupils. The UFO was still visible in the
eastern sky.
Numb and confused, they drove into nearby West Poland, turned
around, and headed back up the road they had just come down. Two
miles later, much to their relief, the UFO disappeared. Stephens
suggested they turn back. Gray agreed. On their way south again,
for no reason he could understand, Gray turned off a gravel road
leading to Tripp Pond, located on the southern part of Lake
Thompson -- where the car engine suddenly stalled and the radio
faded out. In the sky, about 500 feet away, the cylinderlike UFO
hovered. As they watched it, the object moved to a new position
500 yards away.
Forty-five minutes later, two disc-shaped objects with colored
lights appeared, and a thick "fog" rose out of the pond. But
most unsettling, though Gray and Stephens knew they were half a
mile from the pond, it seemed to be no more than two dozen feet
from them. Not only that, but at one point it seemed to stretch
out as far as they could see. In reality, the pond is fairly
small, and the hills on its other side are clearly visible. In
the middle of this "ocean" stood an island, over which one of
the UFOs hovered. The real pond has no such island.
The strange fog from the pond engulfed their car, and as it did,
the radio abruptly blared on, and a voice announced
incongruously that the day would be bright and clear. But to
Stephens and Gray all that was clear was the light of the
largest UFO - the "mothership," they would call it, and the
first object they had seen. The mothership was rising higher
into the air and taking the fog with it.
As the two men drove, they received a mental "impression" -- not
a worded message - that communicated something like "we're not
done with you yet. We're coming back for you."
It was now 6:30 a.m. The weird episode had taken three and a
half hours.
Under hypnosis conducted by a Maine physician, Dr. Herbert
Hopkins, on Stephens (Gray moved out of state not long after the
incident), an abduction story emerged. A few months later,
Hopkins and his family had a series of bizarre MIB-like
experiences.
My point, however, is that whatever we make of the abduction-
hypnosis aspect, the two witnesses' conscious recall is fatally
inconsistent with a misidentification with a moon, ours or
anybody else's.
There may be other conventional explanations - though I admit
none springs immediately to mind beyond hoax, which is certainly
possible but for which evidence has not been demonstrated, so
far as I know (anybody who knows more than I about that
possibility is urged to inform the List forthwith). But the moon
speculation is a nonstarter. We already have pelicanism and
owlism. We don't need moonism on top of that.
