DIRE PREDICTIONS FROM UFO BEINGS WARN OF IMPENDING GLOBAL DISASTERSWILL YOU BE ALIVE IN 2021?For half a century, Warminster, England, on Salisbury Plain near Stonehenge has been the UK's "Ground Zero," for an odd assortment of unexplainable phenomena including: * Disturbing sounds that fill the air with a thunderous roar, shake roof tiles and pin citizens to the ground with tremendous force. * The unexplained death of small animals and birds which drop from cloudless skies in the laps of those passing by. * Strange solid-looking craft that materialize in plain view of confused observers, ultimately streaking across the sky at rip-roaring speeds. * Objects disappearing in the blink of an eye including food baskets, eyeglasses, keys, cameras and jewelry. Most of which ultimately show up in mysterious fashion. * Time distortions, watches stopping for no technical reason, as well as the appearance of Giants who roam the outskirts of the town, near popular UFO landing spots. * The appearance of Crop Circles years before they were reported elsewhere.FOR 50 YEARS "THE THING" MESMERIZEDAND OPENED THE MINDS OF THOUSANDS WHO CAME TO SEE FOR THEMSELVES THIS POWERFUL FORCE FROM OFF WORLDArthur Shuttlewood started out as a nonpartisan journalist for the local news, but after dozens of sightings of his own could only conclude: "There is ample evidence that Warminster is a 'window' area to another plane of existence - or perhaps there are unique 'properties' here that serve as some sort of landing beacon to some far off intelligent life form."Here is the complete text of UFO PROPHECY, the rare out of print book by Arthur Shuttlewood which included many striking revelations for those concerned about their well being and approaching changes on our earthly landscape. Revelations which are as insightful today as when original published. This incredible NEW edition includes: An update on the many "coincidental" events involving flying dragons, the Men-In-Black and the Nessie lake "monster. There are also previously unpublished photos of unexplainable aerial craft, a review of the most sensational findings, and how the town "celebrates" its link to the stars, We are additionally proud to present an introduction by Hanna Shuttlewood, the granddaughter of Mr. Shuttlewood who says her granddad "would be honored to be remembered for his UFO interest and writings years on." Other contributors or researchers involved in putting together this commemorative edition include Tim Beckley, Sean Casteel, Kevin Goodman, Steve Dewey, and Tim R. Swartz.Those seeking additional information on Warminster we recommend the book "UFOS: Keys To Inner Perfection" by Bryce Bond. This work contains updated material and Bryce's sensational contact with Nordic type aliens in the fields around the town.
A NONSECTARIAN, NONDENOMINATIONAL ASSESSMENT OF BIBLICAL MIRACLES, PROPHECIES AND MODERN ANOMALOUS PHENOMENA, INCLUDING UFOS AND MARIAN APPARITIONS ALL OVER THE WORLD, TRUE BELIEVERS SAY THAT THE LORD IS SHOWING HIMSELF IN SUPERNATURAL WAYS Are we living in the "Last Days," as described in the Book of Revelation? Is there evidence that the words of the Bible are true and have special meaning to those willing to accept them as gospel? What is the connection between UFOs, the Scriptures and the Signs, Symbols and Wonders of Biblical proportions that appear to be manifesting all around us? Are we to accept at face value the phantasmagorical stories told by those who claim to have been "taken up" (where?) - such as Whitley Strieber, Betty Andreasson Luca, Raymond Fowler, and contactees like Orfeo Angelucci and George Van Tassel?Strange events are taking place daily, and you should be alerted to them, be you a "true believer," an occasional churchgoer, a devout heretic or even an atheist. We are told that we all have the free will to determine the source of the messages and miracles seemingly supported by an endless array of photos showing weeping holy statues, miraculous apparitions of the "Lady in White" - who many believe to be "Mother Mary" - as well as Jesus descending from the clouds, as if in a preview of the Second Coming that the righteous say will take place soon. Skeptics counter those beliefs by saying these are merely the holograms, or projections, created by the New World Order (or the CIA?) to confuse the public in a Satanically-based "disinformation" campaign.Here are numerous photos of the "Spinning Sun" taken at Fatima in 1917, just found recently in the Vatican's underground vaults. Also the "ecstasy" trances, walks and levitations of those claiming to be overcome by the Holy Spirit.UFO are definitely part of the equation, says the author, Sean Casteel, who relies not only on his firsthand investigations of the phenomena for over 30 years, but on the testimony of those who have experienced close encounters or claimed to have been abducted by "aliens." Are beautiful angelic beings residing alongside us NOW, disguised as everyday mortals? How can you detect them? Why do most fundamentalists believe that all UFOs are demonic, and do officials in the government and military agree with this theory, believing that if there was full Disclosure that Satan might be unleashed upon the Earth?And what could be the future of organized religion in general? Has the last Pope taken his papal seat only to oversee the fall of the Church? As current as today's headlines, the author examines the killer plagues now sweeping the globe. While COVID-19 gets all the attention, two continents have been devastated by a plague right out of Exodus, as vast swarms of locusts with bright gauzy wings attack from the sky.Many Native Americans say they know what is about to transpire, their tribal prophecies being based upon direct and personal contacts with the "Sky People," who can easily be associated either with angels or extraterrestrials. There is a belief that "they" will come down and save many of the "Chosen Ones," much like the Rapture spoken of by those who are about to welcome Jesus "for real."This is a book for all people, for all faiths, or no faith, and for those willing to sort through the many doctrines to get to the truth about the otherworldly phenomena that could be Heavenly or something darker. We invite you to join us in our quest to find out the truth about the apparitions and manifestations that may soon affect us all. It is a fascinating journey that you cannot afford to miss
A REMARKABLE BOOK FOR A REMARKABLE AGE A DAKINI - OR "SPACE AND TIME TRAVELER" - PENNED THIS VOLUME FROM ANOTHER DIMENSION. THOSE SEEKING THE ULTIMATE TRUTH ABOUT COSMIC MATTERS WILL NEED TO SEEK NO FURTHER This wonderful book was written using telepathy as the medium of communications.This is NOT your ordinary channeled book Though you can believe it is if you so desire and don't wish to "go all the way," and believe that a Sky God put these magickal words onto paper.For you see, these in depth transmissions, these remarkable essays, were bought into our space and time - our world as it were - by an advanced entity known as a Dakini. Dakini simply put means "She Who Can Fly." A Dakini is a Sky God, a Space Goer, or Space Dancer who guides humans along the path to enlightenment, most often in regard to the exact nature of the universe and its vast domains. The worlds a Dakini inhabits includes parallel dimensions and all individual universal time zones and curves and dilations. While connected with elements of both white and black magic, on the positive side this powerful spirit can remove physical hindrances and spiritual obstacles such as those associated with pride and ego. "The Mysteries of Space, Time and UFOs," covers such topics as Flying Saucers, (now known as UAPs) Angels (without wings), Demons and other Occult subjects. The supernatural being only the unknown sciences yet to be rationalized by the academic communities because of "unclear thinking." This book contains facts about the secrecy and suppression of such subjects as religion, psychiatry, physics and outer and inner space. As a text book on life and death in the universe it will bring release from fear. It will answer such questions as - * What is Atomic Fusion? * What is an apport? * Who is responsible for the use of drugs? Wars? Civil unrest? Prejudice? * What really happened to the early space contactees who were so popular in the Fifties and Sixties and went out on a limb to tell their intriguing stories of communicating with extraterrestrials? The entity that is Dakini says it is time we knew the truth about Inner Space and the Divine Intelligence which will ultimately enable humans to abandon any hatred they may harbor toward one another. This work constitutes a feverish attempt - before it is to late - to explore and explain the cosmic laws to men and women of all faiths living in all nations around our planet. In addition to these remarkable essays by a "space god," material from the vault of the late Tibetan lama T. Lobsang Rampa further fortifies this timely text with stories of his trips to other planets and meetings with the galactic overlords. Channeler and UFO experiencer Diane Tessman adds additional words of wisdom, as does publisher Tim Beckley, and researcher Tim R. Swartz
SHOCKING FULL COLOR PHOTO ALBUM OF OVER 100 PAGES - SOME UFOLOGISTS BELIEVE THESE PICTURES TO BE MORE AUTHENTIC THAN THOSE OF BILLY MEIER HERE IS SHOCKING PICTORIAL EVIDENCE OF UFOS ON EARTH AND ONGOING ENCOUNTERS WITH ET'S AS EXPERIENCED BY A HUMBLE MAN FROM RURAL NEW MEXICO.The UFO photos of one Paul Villa are in a category all of their own. They show solid hardware of what can only be "alien" craft originating from outside Earth's atmosphere.For a period of several years Paul Villa remained a rather mysterious figure, claiming contact with advanced beings from other worlds. What placed him in a category almost all by himself is the fact that he was able to produce - just about on command - photographs of real-world, solid vehicles - not "supernatural manifestations" - which hovered and darted about near his desert mobile home.According to Villa, he would receive a telepathic message that his otherworldly friends were in the neighborhood and he should go outdoors. There in the sky would be silvery discs complete with "windows," looking like nothing manufactured on Earth. The ships Villa saw and photographed ranged in size from just a few feet across to well over 30 feet in diameter.WERE THEY FAKED? WAS HE SILENCED?As might be expected, the UFO skeptics began to attack Villa's photographic evidence. They claimed that his photos - over 50 of them - were faked, offering as proof supposed computer enhancements which are open to various interpretations. After a while, Villa became silent. There were rumors that he had been threatened and that his house had been burned to the ground.The late Lt. Col. Wendelle Stevens, who possessed the world's largest UFO photo collection, was impressed enough to want to meet Villa and bring his story to the world. Stevens looked high and low for the photographer and, after a lengthy search, found him "hiding out."Stevens got this amazing gentleman to open up completely and tell his story for the first time. The result is one of the few books with color photos of alien spacecraft ever presented to our world as proof of the existence of another race of beings who live among the stars but visit us on a regular basis.The photos in this book are simply astonishing . . . showing a UFO hovering over Villa's home as well as over his farm equipment, hovering above his work truck and just "hanging out" in the neighborhood. For the first time, we can see two or three different types of UFOs in photos, which add to the weight of evidence that the shots have not been staged. We see spinning tops standing by the larger ships as if to protect them. Villa also claims that the weeds in some of the photos were wilted due to the magnetic field which surrounded the craft as they came in low over the ground.And if the skeptic still wishes to be a nonbeliever, it should be pointed out that Villa never profited from any of the pictures he took, though he might have been able to sell them for hundreds of dollars. Instead he gave away stacks of copies free of charge to schools, prisons, libraries and government officials.But THE SECRET UFO CONTACTS OF PAUL VILLA goes beyond just the photographic evidence. It gets into his contact claims and his belief that aliens live and work among us and are here now getting us ready for that "great day" when we will be unshackled from our chains and redeemed from our present failed condition. It would seem that such a time is upon us right now THIS IS A LARGE FORMAT 8x11 book with page after page of Paul Villa's impressive COLOR photos -- the best quality we could obtain. It is a coffee table book that will be a great enhancement to any collector's library. There has never been such a tantalizing collection of UFO pictures printed in color in America that has so defied the critics. This book also includes the UFO contacts of Italy's "Alien Friendship Case."

THE BENEFITS OF THE PURPLE ENERGY PLATES ARE SAID TO BE ALMOST SUPERNATURAL. BUT THE TRUTH IS THEY ARE FIRMLY ROOTED IN THE SCIENTIFIC PRINCIPLES OF NIKOLA TESLA -- "THE MAN WHO SAW AND LIVED IN THE FUTURE." WARNING - This is NOT another book about the life of the genius Nikola Tesla. It is about a specific previously undisclosed discovery that has not received any attention in the media or by academic peer groups. It involves the development of what has become known as "Nikola Tesla's Positive Purple Energy Plates" which when worn or carried by an individual, or placed in their close proximity (such as in a home, office or car) can have multiple positive benefits that some consider "miraculous "The plates are recommended as a transformational tool for Mind, Body and Spirit. If you have heard of Tesla's purple energy plates previously and wanted to learn more about them, or if you are discovering them "by accident" for the first time (nothing is a "coincidence" in the universe), this volume will be extremely insightful.The atoms and electrons of these restructured aluminum plates - which were developed by an apprentice working alongside Tesla - have been altered so that the purple plates are in resonance, or in tune with the basic energy of the Universe. They function as transceivers, creating a field of energy around themselves, that will penetrate any material substance by osmosis.These plates will help to raise the vibrational rate of any individual using them. Many people place their food on the large purple plates, when they are still in paper sacks from the market, to keep their food fresher, longer. Some people sleep on these plates by placing them under their mattress to help give them more stamina and vitality and relieve tensions. No medical claims are made or implied. They are said to have benefited those individuals who have placed them on injured areas of the body. A certain heightened degree of hormonal intimacies among couples has also been reported. This would be similar to the energy generated by Wilhelm Reich's Orgone Accumulator. Though having none of the same properties, and while not working on the same principles, Tesla's plates have become very popular among those working with the devices known as the Black Box or the Rife Machine.Indeed, the applications for the plates are many. Just carry the small plates in your pocket or purse or near your bedside or front door for harmony, or in your car while out driving to assist in avoiding stress and fatigue. Better yet, wear the discs as a necklace or earrings. You will find many testimonials in the pages of this book given by those individuals who are convinced that the plates, as inspired by Nikola Tesla, have enhanced their all around well being.Indeed a miracle may be on the way once you start working with this discovery which has definitely been given to the world to benefit us all by a man who was a great genius and whom some people insist might actually have had ties to the future - did he discover the secrets of time travel? Many have wanted to know in sincere curiosity.The author of this volume, Tim R. Swartz recently acted as an on-the-air consultant to the History Channel's mini series, "The Tesla Files." Those seeking further information should consult "The Lost Journals of Nikola Tesla" - ISBN: 1606110543 or for a more spiritual/New Age approach to Tesla's life and work we recommend "Nikola Tesla: Free Energy and the White Dove" - ISBN: 0938294822
WERE HUMAN SACRIFICES DOWN THROUGH THE AGES MADE TO APPEASE AND "NOURISH" THE BLOODTHIRSTY GODS? On the night of March 5th, 1967, two workers in the local Red Cross Bloodmobile in Point Pleasant, West Virginia, were chased by something strange in the sky. Their van was loaded with flesh blood and, despite the fact that they were speeding to get to the hospital with their supply of human plasma, a UFO kept pace and lowered two claw-like projections on either side of their emergency vehicle as if to capture it in its prongs and lift the bloodmobile into the night sky. On Long Island, New York, a well-respected talk show host was taken to a large "meeting hall" which fronted for the secret headquarters of a strange group of alien "androids" who called themselves "The Council of Ten Men." "In the recesses of the building was a hidden laboratory in which what appeared to be several corpses were laid out on examination tables. Next to the 'corpses' were rows of test tubes and bottles filled with blood," the talk show host recounted. "Each bottle was labeled with names, such as 'CHARLES' and 'SUSAN.' The Ten handled some of the bottles and sampled their contents orally and without facial expressions." The whole scene sickened the witness, and she was greatly disturbed by the experience. Blood has always been part of the hidden agenda of the Ultra-Terrestrials, from the days of "ancient astronauts" - and their apparent demand for human sacrifices - to the animal mutilations of today. There are even entire villages in Brazil where most of the town's residents have been "attacked" and suffered large quantities of their blood being drained, leaving hideous scars on the victims' bodies. Veteran investigator Scott Corrales delves into the nightmarish mystery of alien blood lust, concentrating on incidents from Hispanic communities in Puerto Rico, Mexico and throughout South America. Input from other qualified researchers add evidence to a horrifying -- but all-too-true -- aspect of UFOlogy that never gets any attention Chapters Include: --** Snack Time Flesh and Blood May Be The Real God Of The Gods. --**The Bloodmobile Chase. --** Human Sacrifice: The Deadly Deed. --**Is Blood The True Nectar And Ambrosia Of The Gods? --** Was Dracula An Alien? --** Blood Is the Life For The Monsters That Seek It. --** Puerto Rico's Moca Vampire. --** Gargoyle Of The Outer Darkness --** Chupacabras Diary.
