Summary

On October 11, 1973, 19-year-old Calvin Parker and his friend, 42-year-old Charles Hickson, were spending a frustrating evening fishing on the Pascagoula River in Mississippi. Both men loved to fish, but tonight's fishing trip would turn out to be one they would never forget.  

In the early evening, the men were startled when a strange craft descended and hovered a few feet above the ground and just a few yards from their location. Before they had any chance to run, an opening appeared in this craft and out "floated" three humanoid creatures. They were absolutely terrified when these creatures grabbed them and took them aboard the craft. 

On the craft, both men were subjected to an examination, and at one point, they were so terrified that they believed they were about to die. Minutes later, both Calvin Parker and Charles Hickson were deposited back on the riverbank, and the craft departed. 

Taking off in their car, the two terrified witnesses eventually located a public telephone box and phoned the local sheriff. A short time later, they were being interviewed at their local sheriff's office. These two disorientated witnesses told their story of their close encounter and abduction by these strange creatures. The next day, all hell was let loose as the press descended on this unsuspecting Mississippi town.  

Calvin Parker, seriously disturbed by these events, has largely remained in the background without ever detailing the full account of what happened that night, how it affected him and his life, and other close encounters he has experienced down the years. Now, for the first time, Calvin Parker tells his story in full. 

This audiobook, Pascagoula - The Closest Encounter, tells the story of one of the classic close encounters currently on record. This audiobook features for the first time the full transcript of Calvin Parker's hypnotic regression session with the late Budd Hopkins, one of the world's foremost researchers of this phenomena.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Truthful and honest

I enjoyed listening to this audible. It’s not long, and give you different perspectives of the encounter. Even though the grammar is mostly in Parker’s notes and writing, it bring out the honestly and truth of the story. A credible story and hope no one has to go through this again.

Mystery backed up with a lot substance

A great listen if you are interested in this sort of stuff. I hope Calvin can find enough additional info. to maybe take this further, but only if he wishes too.
For instance maybe try to speak with these other people that went through hypnosis and had there own stories and see if any similarities to your own experiences and possibly participate in more of your own hypnosis.
Not sure what to think about the final hypnosis info. It was out there shall we say, but also it’s like the questions and the answers were maybe expected, as in the guy had heard similar before and asked questions to try and get this out. He appeared to be expecting some of your answers, but Calvin was not. This makes me think there is a lot more to be unearthed. I await the possible follow up book with intrigue and maybe some trepidation.
