    Sources: An interrupted JourneyAbout hypnosisNews Articles:Betty's DeathUNH Image collectionInterview with Betty ( this is the one where she looks grizzled) Lam, Crowley, and New HampshireMoreHypnosis Audio clips1 2Wiki links:Zeta ReticuliThe betty and Barney Hill incidentAleister CrowleyHypnotherapyimages: Loose transcript:Quick recap/their trips upThe hills, barney and betty were a middle aged married couple living in portsmouth nh, in the early sixties Betty was at the time of the incident a 42 year old white social worker living and working right here in portsmouthBarney was a 39 year old black postal worker who would commute to boston for work The third hill was delseyThe pair took delsey and drove up to Niagara falls and montreal for a lovely weekend getawayThe trip was mostly without incident until the drive homeThey were driving down route three and interstate 93 to get from canada to portsmouth, mostly a straight shot south through the state until the last 45min-1hrAfter reaching colebrook they saw a mysterious object in the sky, and dismissed it as a plane or satelliteI’m gonna breeze through this a little because all this is a recap, if you’re confused check out last week's episode, and subscribe so you can catch up on all of it, and all the other cool stuff we coverEventually the object comes closer and they get out to look at it, barney goes nuts because there’s figures in the craft, nazi looking irish chinese men depending on how far back in the screen memory hypnosis you go. After this they get back in the car and try to book it home with the UFO flying saucer looking craft following them, sometimes disappearing and sometimes getting very close. When they reach indian head resort the craft gets very close and they hear a repeated beeping noiseThe beeping resumes 2 and a half hours later and like 45 miles south and they both abruptly wake up with no memory of the drive since the first beeping. A little shaken the drove home and went to bed, slept for the afternoon and found some weird stuff with their belongingsShoesDressLuggageRings on carAfter a few days, weeks and months of trying to figure out what happened they eventually reported the sighting to nicap. National Investigations Committee on Aerial Phenomena and the airforce. There’s an airforce base in portsmouth. There was, now it’s a civilian airport since I think 91 So where we left last week they met major swett, yes that’s his name who was Former air forceReading poetry at their churchAmateur hypnotistRecommends them to doctor benjamin simonA psychiatrist operating out of boston comfortable with using hypnotherapy. And we left while they were on the way to their first session with doctor simon Brief aside. Contact with ufologists/air forceSo I wanted to talk about this last session but couldn’t really fit it in and in the end it doesn’t add much to the story but adds a little bit credibility wise. They reported their stories to a ufologist who documented the facts of the case in the nicap database, which would eventually match up with thousands of other reports The air force was cagey about their response but did actually admit that there was no training flight or military craft out that nightNot that they have to I imagine, but it’s another tick for the credibility column They did however find that the air force did pick up some sort of undesignated aircraft that night on radar. How common is that? No idea? Does it mean anything? Maybe but again that’s another little tick inching things forward on the believeometerBut for brevity’s sake I don’t think it’s really necessary to yank too much harder on that particular plot thread. Because it doesn’t go much further than that unless we really expand our scope out to the entire ufo abduction phenomena rather than this particular case. So they arrive in boston, a little bit early to be punctual and have time to grab a bagel on their way in Fuckin dunkin that’s right bud.So then they make it in and are on time for like a consultationSimon proceeds to get the same story as I just told plus the fact that barney has some anxiety about being a shitty dad because his kids from a previous marriage are out in pennsylvania and aren’t being dadded. He also has stress ulcers Betty mentions her recurring dreams slash nightmares but they don’t get much attention until later because it’s decided that barney will be going first.THey spend the next few weeks going to visit doctor simon going into a light hypnotic induction, the short version of that is that BnB have to get comfortable with the idea of hypnosis and practice going under several times and reinforcing cue words, in popular media that’s like they show up and he hits them with “You’re getting very sleepy you’ll fall asleep when I say bigfoot. Bigfoot. When you wake up you’ll have no memory of this. You’ll wake when I say chicken patty. Chicken patty”Doing that ...
