Have Alien Abductions decreased since 1997?

Does anyone else feel alien abduction reports have ebbed and/or ceased?

I know when I had my experience back in 1997, it was a bitter-sweet time because I knew I wasn't alone (either in my delusion or abduction) for I couldn't get away from all the abduction reports. There were millions!

Budd Hopkins and David Jacobs (to name a few) were inundated with emails, letters and phone calls looking for help and answers. I know. I tried. Was put on a to-call-back list lasting 18 months!

That year was a pivotal and chaotic UFO/cosmic one too!
We had Hale Bopp. Phoenix Lights. Mexico City UFO. Roswell 50th anniversary. Washington DC 25th anniversary. Applegate suicides.

Now........after following this phenomenon for over 13 years, I hardly ever read about abductions (and cow mutilations) anymore. Actually, with each and every passing year, the reports seemed to dwindle. Now, there appears to be none.

Could it be they got everything they wanted?
Could this be the quiet before the storm?
Could it be that they abducted people back then in preparations for what's coming?


Anyone have any constructive ideas or opinions? Not interested in hearing from the debunkers. You'll be ignored.

The ETs have probably just studied humans enough that they can abduct someone without the person remembering. After all they do have spaceships and travel from really far away (like Detroit)

I don't believe they travel like we think they do. I believe they bend time. Wormholes if ya will. So 'traveling' from Universe to Universe is like us running to the corner store for a carton of milk!


But I think, not remembering, has always been the case for many anyway. Unless of course, they've 'perfected' their technique so much now that there are no more flashbacks, missing time, missing fetuses, implants and/or marks.


I just have a suspicion that abductions are stopping.

In looking back it seems like the late 90's was a type of crescendo! And ever since, it's become less and less (Unless, it's like you said....we're just not recalling anything anymore. That could be HAARP aiding in that

Or it could be that the ETs know the human race is doomed as a whole, so they gave up trying to learn more about humans

I think all of you are right to some extent. They do abductions in waves and another wave will be due soon. It seems like each generation gets whacked to donate. I really wonder what they are up to.

I usually think in concepts which I would consider "outside the box" and for this particular question I think I might have a more rational answer.

I for one am not a firm believer in E.T.'s or abductions, but I will not rule them out either. However I have a theory that I would like some feedback on.

What if the lack of UFO abductions and visits are simply due to the human mind concentrating on something else besides the "what if" out there? I know you can feel a growing buildup to big events around the world, some people say it's war, some say a global enlightenment (we all hope), and some say it is all just the next big hype.

Considering all the eyes turned away from the stars and towards the news, foreign relations and our own problems, maybe, just maybe the amount of abductions and reports could be related to the fact that they aren't really happening and that our desire for galactic companionship is replaced by genuine concern for our fellow man. (Probably the first time in a long time)

Honestly think about it for a minute..........

Foreign tensions rise, political power struggles increase, younger generations begin to become involved more and more into world affairs now more than ever before which leaves ??????

How many people still have their head buried in the sand like the ostrich waiting for everything to go away so that their magical flight to heaven or Jupiter, whatever comes first, happens?

By no means am I trying to mock your claimed abduction or anyone else's, I am simply comparing the sheer number of people around the world who are waking up to those in power who are corrupting our way of life in favor of their own; compared to the number of people who feel helpless on this earth and searching for a way out?

Now more than ever people are feeling like there are others out there to support them and they are not alone, not in space, but on our mudball.

Right here, right now we are banding together to fight indifference, hatred and corruption.

So I ask you, is it any suprise that abduction reports have fallen?

***On a side note, I am still on the fence about the whole deal, so if they drop in my back yard you bet ATS will be the first place I report it.***

i heard bud hopkins and dr. jacob talking on coast to coast 2010 and the same question was posed. i believe dr. jacob said it was not recessing, but in his opinion the phenomenon seems to be increasing with more generations of abducties marrying non-abducties.

don't get it twisted they're not done with us yet.

I believe all physical alien abduction was stopped in 2003..

"Abductions" are probably the most interesting form of the so-called close encounters. Could some PLEASE give me a link to case that hasn't been proved BS?

As interesting as they are, I just think most (if not all) are caused by some form of psychic phenomenon or they are misinterpretations. I would love to see some tangible evidence.

Look into the works of John Mack.phd

Well I suppose in part you might have something there. But I know I personally am looking up (spiritually-speaking) much more than I ever did in the past because looking forward (and backwards) is too negative, unclear and uncertain.

So perhaps there is a global chaotic concentration on world events more than ever before (thanks to the internet too) and maybe that is adding to the 'whys' as far as the lack of abductions lately.

And I know this is another topic but what about cow mutilations? They too seem to have stopped as well.
Are they fixed and focused on current events too? I say that half jokingly but I do believe everything is connected and animals DO pick up on the vibrational enviroment around them.

Or maybe the nordics are enforcing universal law and stopped the greys and reptilians from abducting us..

On the subject of mutilations , there have been plenty of reports this decade, and I think it would be worth your time to have deeper look around on this subject. There have been threads about recent events in that feild just lately , just look em up.
On the subject of UFO encounters, again, its STILL being reported . I think its just a matter of looking in the right places and in the right way .
On abductions however, yeah I would say it may have seen a drop in the last decade. Mind you , if you take a look at the time lines for all the abductions ever recorded, it might give you a better idea of why .

I don' think any abduction case that's been officially documented has ever turned out to be deemed BS.
Of course every single event that's ever taken place here on planet Earth always has 'the other side'. No one single event has ever been accepted in unity! That's what happens when Humans live in polarity!

Hopefully one day (if we make it) there will be a simple device that can extrapolate the truth. Like a Human vacuum cleaner!

But......................
There is the Betty and Barney Hill case.
skeptoid.com...

Travis Walton case.
www.travis-walton.com...

The Allagash case.
www.scientificexploration.org...

Linda Cortile (Brooklyn Bridge) case.
www.ufos-aliens.co.uk...


and again.....look at the dates. These four cases were considered very big and believable stories and......rare!

Then in the 1990's there were SO many reports of supposed abductions that no one UFO agency can keep up with them all.
It was said that upwards to 2.5 million people here in the USA alone were being abducted in the 1990's.

And for the poster who said 2003 was the end year for abductions? I read that too somewhere.

Who knows.


When I had my experience, my first instinct wasn't "Man, I was abducted".
That's just not a common reaction. It took years to 'maybe' accept that possibility.
And still to this day, I struggle with that possible acceptance. Because like you mentioned, there IS no proof. We often chalk a lot of unknown and unconventional experiences (sights, noises, thoughts etc) to 'tricks of the mind'.

It's beyond absurd.

Well, if you believe in the Galactic Law of Universe which....I do then, there is supposedly no intervention allowed.

I really feel that in part, the 'greys' are working with our own government to a certain extent. After all they're said to be robotic. Built. Programmed. Designed. Emotion-less etc, so it stands to reason they have (had?) a mission.

I just don't know anymore (not that I ever did) but in my research of alien abductions for over a decade now I really feel they have ceased dramatically.

About the 'generation' comment. Yes! Indeed this phenomenon looks to be generational. After all, we are all Native Aliens anyway but I do believe certain families are studied more than others.
I know my mother was deeply into the reality of UFOs back in the 1950's-1960's. She was an airline stewardess and saw a LOT of UFOs back then and was a firm believer in their existence. To me, it all sounded foreign when she shared with me her experiences in the 1970's as a child. And now...?....looking back...?....it's surreal (too bad she passed away so young because I would've loved to ask her questions now that I am an adult) Oh well.

But...................... There is the
Betty and Barney Hill case. skeptoid.com...
Travis Walton case. www.travis-walton.com...

The first being the analysis say so and depicted
the preparation the saucer and base crews were
taking for handling and disguising unexpected
riders ans lo Travis Walton runs up to a landing
Tesla ether ship and falls to the ground knocked
unconscious. Taken back to the base he awakes
sees three types of ships and is sedated by Grey
made up base attendants and set back by the lake
that witness said he was last seen.
Yeah that happened the Travis, the Hills no.

Hi there!

Sorry, but I don't know what your post says.

Travis 'yes'....Hills 'no'? What? Being abducted? Seeing a craft?

I notice you constantly mention Tesla in many of your posts. May I ask, why?

reply to post by One Moment



I'm not a debunker. I'll just say have you taken into account that maybe Aliens are no longer interested in studying this planet?

I've always wanted to converse with someone like you. Can you tell me a little about your experience or just link to the thread that its on.

Travis had an actual ride in UFO.
The Hills did not as there are no witnesses and the story make
up by the analyst.

The Hills story some how immediately fits the Travis situation.
Thus the analysts is part of the UFO agents of the Illuminati
owners of the UFO who wish to be left alone.

ED: The electrostatic and ether pressure flight was developed
by Tesla even though people say no but I say so.
ED+: Its not an anagram its the story of the Hills and Walton.
You followed for 13 years and can't see the first two being
connected.
