The Man with 40+ UFO Encounters (and a Traumatic Alien Abduction Story)

Listen on Spotify Apple Podcasts Watch on YouTube

One night at his grandmother's house in South Hampton in the 1980s, Mike Stevens felt an internal calling to go outside.

Alongside his cousin, 3-year-old Mike saw something that's still seared into his brain 40+ years later.

He remembers the flying saucer coming, and he remembers it flying away.

As for what happened in between? Well, it still haunts him to this day.

*In today's conversation from my makeshift studio in Portsmouth, one of New Hampshire's leading UFO researchers joins me to discuss the following:

The Betty and Barney Hill incident (00:00)

The Incident at Exeter (03:20)

Getting abducted at age 3 (07:04)

Mike's other UFO encounters (14:30)

Hypnoregression therapy (19:24)

Granite Sky Services (26:42)

Lifelong trauma from the abduction (32:10)

"It's about people, not proof" (35:36)

What's your mission? (44:02)

And stick around for the surprise at the end!

Mike Stevens is a New Hampshire born-and-bred paranormal researcher and investigator. A well-respected member of the paranormal community, Mike is the founder of Granite Sky Services, a support group for those who have had traumatic experiences with UFOs. He currently resides in Rochester, N.H.
