Shortly after sunset, Betty Andreasson, her parents and her 7 children were frightened by a pulsating red-orange light outside their backyard. This was accompanied by a “silent vacuum” and failure of lights in the house. Four entities appeared before Betty in the kitchen, after passing through a closed door. The beings were nearly identical, with large, baldheads, gray skin, large wrap-around eyes with hazy, light gray interiors (later dark pupils were observed), “scar like” mouths, and holes for noses and ears. They wore sparkly, dark blue uniforms with a lighter blue “Sam Browne” strap. They had bulky hands, possibly gloved, and wore boots. Their leader, Quazgaa, was slightly taller and his suit was darker that the others. The reported height of the entities was 3 ½ and 5 ft, at different times during the encounter. Quazgaa began possibly telepathic communication with Betty in the kitchen; he asked her for some food (and offered some leftover meat; they declined, asking that it be cooked) and she cooked some meat on the stove. But she determined that their food was “knowledge tried by fire,” and they went into the living room (with her) where she handed the leader a Bible. He created several copies and handed them to the crew. He in turn handed her a thin, blue book containing their form of knowledge, which remained in her possession for 9 days. During these proceedings, the other family members were sitting in the living room in a state of suspended animation. (Her father, who had earlier gone into the kitchen pantry to observe the lights, remained there; it was later suggested that a fifth entity had joined him and, later, remained behind during the “onboard” experience.) However, Betty’s daughter remembered and confirmed part of the above testimony. Betty was then “talked into” going on board the entities craft. She was on board an estimated 2 hr. During this time she was led through several rooms, was given a physical exam in which they “tested her for light,” inserted a needle in her nostril and navel and scanned her with an eye-like device. (She was then placed in an enclosed seat, which was filled with a soothing liquid, in which she presumably “prepared” for an unusual journey.

Accompanied by two “guides,” fore and aft,) she visited an alien realm where she saw cities, strange bug-eyed creatures, and a vast ocean. She had a traumatic religious experience, which led her to identify the beings as “angels.” Returning from the journey, she was led back to her home by two of the entities, one named Joohop; her family was still in a state of suspended animation. (The daughter later recalled being “baby sat” by the one remaining entity.) The beings, holding spheres of light in their hands, proceeded to put the family to bed, the abductee being the last. The incident is attended by automatic writing, speaking in strange tongues, visions, message transfer and telephone “contact,” some of these occurring under hypnosis and during the investigation. Betty was found to have several previous contacts and numerous post 1967 contacts also.
