About this episode
Starting in the 1960s, hundreds of scientists and regular people alike received these shocking communications, detailing a strange and advanced civilization from a distant star system. But were these letters the beginning of genuine extraterrestrial contact, or part of one of the most elaborate hoaxes in UFO history? Join us as we explore the creepy details, including a sinister cult that emerged from the chaos, the chilling events that followed, and the terrifying possibility that the aliens may still be watching us. Keep the lights on, because this is not just a UFO story—it's a horror that could be all too real.
