A three-eyed alien pointed a silver rod at a teenage boy, making him vanish before the craft flew away and he reappeared.
This episode of Bigfoot Collectors Club is a re-release of a classic episode featuring guest Michael Moreci. Host Michael McMillan introduces the show, noting it's the first time co-host Riley Bray appeared. The episode focuses on the Voronezh UFO landing of September 27, 1989, in Voronezh, Russia, where 40 to 50 people witnessed a pink orb land in a park. A three-eyed alien in a silver jumpsuit and a boxy robot emerged, with the alien performing magic tricks like creating glowing shapes. The alien made a teenage boy disappear with a silver rod before the craft flew off, and the boy reappeared. Soviet scientists investigated and found physical evidence like depressions in the grass. The story was reported in Soviet media and later Western press. Michael Moreci, a sci-fi author, shares a personal paranormal experience: as a child, he repeatedly saw a ghostly old-timey carnival figure with a beard and coat tails in his uncle's doorway. Riley Bray describes seeing a woman in a red Victorian dress in a haunted farmhouse in upstate New York, capturing a photo with a glowing orb. The hosts and guest discuss belief in ghosts, Bigfoot, and UFOs, with Moreci expressing openness to all. They analyze how alien encounters might be interpreted through cultural lenses, comparing the Voronezh alien to American sci-fi tropes. The episode includes segments like 'What the Hell Was That?' where they speculate on the Voronezh incident, and 'Collector's Corner' where Moreci talks about collecting Star Wars figures and books. The show concludes with promotions for Moreci's book 'Black Star Renegades' and future episodes.
