Welcome to a story so disturbing and far-fetched that its author, a veteran of the paranormal genre, retired after writing it. This is the tale of Susan and her terrifying encounters, as documented in the book Harvest by G.L. Davis. It's a story that blurs the line between reality and nightmare, taking place in the heart of the enigmatic Welsh Triangle, a region notorious for its strange occurrences.
A Nightmarish Encounter
The ordeal began in November 2009. Susan and three friends, seeking a quiet getaway from university life, rented a secluded farmhouse in Haverfordwest. As the night deepened, a sudden blackout plunged the house into darkness, only to be punctuated by a blinding, otherworldly light. Though the lights soon returned, a more unsettling truth began to emerge: their phones were all dead, and a peculiar chunk of time seemed to be missing.
Hours later, at 3:18 a.m., Susan awoke to a horrifying scene. A small, shadowy figure stood at the foot of her bed. Six beams of pure white light descended from the skylight, illuminating the room. Her dog, Lenny, engaged in a desperate struggle with an unseen force before a high-pitched shriek and an inhuman scream echoed through the night. A final flash of light revealed a grotesque, featureless face hovering inches from her own.
The physical aftermath was just as terrifying. Susan was left with a pounding headache, sharp pains in her back, and a suite of debilitating symptoms including persistent nausea, eye inflammation, and frequent nosebleeds. Lenny was never seen again.
A Cycle of Visions
Susan's encounters didn't end there. A month later, while driving with her friend Adrian, a strange orange light appeared over Hobbs Point harbour, stalling their car before shooting vertically into the night sky. Local reports from that night corroborated the sighting, lending a chilling air of authenticity to her story.
The experiences then bled into her dreams, creating a disturbing cycle of visions that included:
An encounter with her deceased grandmother in a mysterious pub, who gave her an urgent warning to "help my friends."
A surreal scene in a cinema where a film showed a horrifying close-up of ants swarming and "harvesting" a struggling spider, tearing its body apart.
A prophetic dream of a jellyfish-like creature with tendrils that hovered over her sleeping aunt, before attacking her beloved cat, Moggs. The cat died the next day.
A dream where she was questioned by a child version of herself with a series of deeply unsettling questions.
The Harvest
The climax of Susan's ordeal came during what she believed was a final abduction. She was transported to a surreal, blood-red landscape where she was one of hundreds of women of different ages and ethnicities. They were all herded into a vast, terrifying facility where some were subjected to horrific procedures. Susan believed these women were being "harvested" for their bodily fluids or even their newborns, destined to become prey for alien entities. She claimed to have witnessed unthinkable horrors before she blacked out. When she awoke, only three minutes had passed in the real world.
An Unsettling Conclusion
This chilling account challenges belief, and the hosts admit they were initially skeptical, given its fictional feel. They debate whether the author, G.L. Davis, wrote the book for money or because he was so affected by Susan's unwavering belief in her own story that he had to document it. The story gains a degree of plausibility from the fact that before the book was released, similar details (red-hooded figures, orange orbs, and terrifying apparitions) were being shared on private forums by others who claimed to have had similar experiences.
While the hosts acknowledge the possibility that Susan's experiences could be a manifestation of a disturbed mind or extreme sleep paralysis, they find the sheer darkness of the narrative compelling. They point to the grim statistic that half a million under-21s go missing in the US every year, suggesting that while many are runaways, the number leaves an unsettling possibility open. It also begs the question of whether this is all a "big vegan agenda" designed to turn people off meat by showing a horrifying human-like "harvest."
Encounters of Their Own
The story of three-foot-tall beings resonated with Craig, who shared two of his own terrifying dreams. In one, small beings lifted the teepee he was sleeping in while camping. In another, a three-foot-tall creature appeared in his bedroom, and he was rendered speechless as he tried to communicate. These experiences reinforce the idea that whether through dreams or reality, the human mind is susceptible to these terrifying intrusions.
The hosts also note the frequent appearance of owls in alien encounter stories, joking that it's probably just people seeing a real owl on a dark country road. However, they also acknowledge that the creatures often precede abductions. Ultimately, the book ends with the chilling final email from Susan, who was embarking on what she called her "farewell tour," leaving her ultimate fate a chilling mystery.
