    He Met an Alien in Sweden — And Was Given a Mission

    A figure appears on a closed kitchen door.Two towering strangers glide beside a group of boys.And a visitor by the water asks a man to return the following afternoon.This week on Stories Lost, Short Cases, we explore three unusual humanoid encounters from the Nordic archives, all reported in Sweden.During the Christmas holidays of 1942, Erland Thorander was waiting for his father when a strange object appeared above the marsh outside their home. Then a figure took shape on the kitchen door—and its eyes seemed to follow him.In 1968, Benny Magnusson and his friends encountered two towering figures near an abandoned mining area. When one of the boys lost his glasses, Benny stopped to help. Looking up, he found himself meeting a gaze he would remember for decades.And in January 2008, a man we call Miguel reported meeting a visitor named Horos beside a bay north of Stockholm. The stranger spoke fluent Spanish, arranged a second meeting, and gave him a message to take to church leaders.🔹 A strange cloud above a frozen marsh🔹 A figure on a door whose eyes seem to move🔹 Two beings in white, carrying rectangular cases🔹 A lost pair of glasses and an unforgettable gaze🔹 Horos, underwater bases, and an appointment at the shore🕰 Chapters00:00 – The Boy at the Window01:30 – A Book from Stories Lost02:40 – Erland Thorander — Sweden, 194203:47 – The Figure on the Kitchen Door06:24 – The Giants by the Mine — 196807:53 – The Figures Follow the Boys08:26 – Face to Face with a Stranger09:28 – The Friends Who Remembered11:48 – Horos: The Visitor Beside the Bay — 200813:31 – The Visitor Approaches14:09 – A Voice in Fluent Spanish16:05 – Returning for the Appointment16:39 – Bases Beneath the Sea17:08 – A Message for Church Leaders18:19 – Photographs of the Shore18:41 – Contacting UFO-Sweden20:13 – The Email from Washington20:51 – What Remains of the Account22:08 – Three Encounters, Three Lasting Impressions23:00 – Which Moment Stays with You?23:27 – Outro24:03 – Members and PatronsThis episode follows the witnesses’ accounts as published in Swedish UFO reports, including Håkan Blomqvist’s follow-up with Miguel.

    One of the Strangest UFO Encounters in the Soviet Archives

    An invisible barrier.A stranger who vanishes.And a question: “Do you want to see girls?”This week on Stories Lost, we travel west of Moscow to the strange case of Vladimir Bogachev, who claimed that a fishing trip on June 28, 1980, led to an encounter with people he could not always see.A towering stranger appears in a field. Three girls walk through a picture suspended over the countryside. Then an unseen hand leads Bogachev into a brightly lit room, where unfamiliar men tell him he will remember nothing afterward.For roughly six months, he said, he didn’t. The memories returned only after he did something the visitors had specifically forbidden.But that’s only part of the story.🔹 An invisible obstacle that makes him ill🔹 A stranger who disappears and returns in green🔹 Three girls speaking an unknown language🔹 Nine red stars above a control panel🔹 A warning, missing memories, and a telephone number🕰 Chapters00:00 – “Do You Want to See Girls?”01:45 – The Testimony in the Soviet Archives02:43 – The Invisible Barrier — 197903:38 – The Noise Above the River04:47 – The Stranger in the Field05:25 – The Man in the Green Suit06:04 – Three Girls in a Meadow07:13 – Led by an Invisible Hand07:59 – Inside the Brightly Lit Room09:16 – The Men Behind the Curtain09:56 – “You Will Remember Nothing”10:25 – Three Hundred Ships on Earth11:51 – Collapse on the Way to the Bus12:30 – The Memories Return13:22 – Returning with His Family15:14 – Burned Grass and the Investigation16:31 – Dowsing Outlines and Physical Traces18:04 – Varlamov’s Later Claims19:09 – Memory and Missing Evidence20:07 – Felix Zigel’s Interpretation21:55 – If They Called You22:53 – Outro23:10 – Members and PatronsThis episode follows Bogachev’s account, recorded by engineer Z.

    The Visitors Who Showed Him His Own Death | Finland

    The Visitors Who Showed Him His FutureIn the summer of 1954, 18-year-old Osmo Leino claimed that three strangers entered his family’s temporary home outside Turku, Finland. They seemed to know who he was—and they brought a small machine that appeared to show him images from his own future.One of those images, Osmo believed, showed how he would die.This week on Stories Lost, we follow one of Finland’s strangest forgotten encounter stories. It begins with a low-flying object that nearly struck Osmo and his younger brother, and continues with two extraordinary nighttime visits involving mysterious technology, apparent telepathic communication, and predictions of events that had not yet happened.Before leaving, the visitors gave Osmo one final instruction: he was not to speak about them for twenty years.When he eventually published his account in 1977, Osmo claimed that several of their predictions had already come true.But what about the final one?Chapters00:00 The Final Picture04:01 The First UFO Encounter07:05 The Visitors Arrive09:13 The Machine That Showed the Future14:29 The Telepathic Experiment18:01 The Visitors Return21:38 The 20-Year Secret23:41 Osmo’s Later Experiences27:40 A Strange Dream29:30 Osmo’s Final Years31:19 What Really Happened?SourcesOsmo Leino’s published 1977 account.Minna Hivonen, Ultra, 2004 — based on Osmo’s account, their friendship, conversations and correspondence.Tapani Koivula — later writings and interviews concerning Osmo Leino.Juhan Avgrand, Visitors from Space, 1992 — Finnish television documentary featuring Osmo discussing his experiences.👍 Like, comment, and subscribe if you enjoy forgotten casework and strange accounts of the unexplained.https://www.adlibris.com/sv/bok/nattgrim-9789189966215👽 Support the channel:https://www.youtube.com/@storieslosthttps://buymeacoffee.com/storieslostThank you for watching Stories Lost!#StoriesLost #UFOHistory #HumanoidEncounter #HighStrangeness #Unexplained #Finland #Mystery #Documentary

    Three of the Strangest Encounters We’ve Ever Found

    Small figures in red inside an old house. A stranger in the back seat who becomes something else in the witness’s account. And a woman who describes meeting a man called Pilate—before producing an X-ray she believes supports her story.This week on Stories Lost, we follow three encounters that left their witnesses searching for explanations long after the events were over.In eastern France in June 1970, children reported seeing small, pot-bellied figures moving through an old farmhouse. Their attempts to find the visitors led them through empty rooms and open doors, until a strange grey animal appeared at an upper window. A local teacher began asking questions, but the events that followed made the property itself another part of the mystery.In Crimea in 2001, a father and daughter stopped for a young man asking for a lift. He was strikingly beautiful, drank water almost constantly, and seemed preoccupied with a small box. Before the journey was over, the daughter’s recollections had become a series of disconnected scenes—and she had stopped referring to their passenger as a man.And in Kirov in 1991, a different woman, also named Irina, described waking in an unfamiliar room and being led through an encounter she could neither understand nor control. One man eventually gave her a name: Pilate. Years later, researcher Alexey Priyma published her account alongside a drawing attributed to her and an X-ray containing a small pale mark whose significance remained disputed.What did these witnesses experience? And how far can we follow their stories before the surviving evidence runs out?Chapters00:00 Introduction01:40 The Figures in Red — France, 197002:24 Someone at the Window03:10 The Search Inside the House05:12 The Strange Grey Animal07:22 The Teacher and the Children’s Drawings08:22 The Fire and the Missing Bicycle12:13 The Crimean Hitchhiker — 200113:19 The Passenger and the Box15:34 The Abandoned Petrol Station17:33 Alien or Hypnotist?18:54 Irina’s Account — Kirov, 199119:36 The Unfamiliar Room20:17 The Hall and the Moving Chair23:35 “I Am Pilate”23:58 Alexey Priyma’s Investigation25:19 The X-Ray26:16 The Proposed Operation28:58 Final ThoughtsSourcesLumières dans la Nuit, no. 113, August 1971 — “Une étrange affaire,” pp. 16–19.Le Parisien libéré, May 24, 1971 — early newspaper coverage of the children’s encounter and the subsequent fire, prepared in collaboration with Lumières dans la Nuit.UFO Navigator, no. 18, August 2001 — “Alien or Hypnotist?”, publishing Irina’s letter about the Crimean encounter.Alexey Konstantinovich Priyma, Vnezemlyane idut!

    The Incredible UFO Case in Northern Norway That Vanished from History

    He Vanished at Sea. When He Returned, He Remembered Being Taken.A trawler dead in the water.A sphere three thousand feet wideAnd a man who could not remember his own name for almost a year.This week on Stories Lost, we look at the case of Kenneth Brean, a British trawler officer who vanished at sea in the Arctic Ocean just before Christmas, and resurfaced years later on a mountain plateau near the Norwegian border, unable to speak or recall who he was.Two Sámi herders found him and another unidentified man sitting beside a fire, dressed in strange clothing and staring blankly into the flames. It would take nearly a year, and the blinding light of a welding torch, before Kenneth began to speak again. What followed was a memory of a massive luminous sphere descending over his trawler, two smaller craft, a beam that tore through the hull, and an enormous chamber filled with benches, strange green beings, and towering pale figures who studied him without a word. Kenneth was placed under a secrecy order, his family relocated and forbidden to speak his name, and he died years later of leukemia attributed to radiation exposure. We tried to verify his account and instead found a wall of silence, broken only by one detail that could not be erased: a missing British trawler, and her entire crew.Was Kenneth Brean's account a genuine record of something taken from him at sea? Or is the trawler we found simply a haunting coincidence?Chapters00:00 Introduction01:47 The Sámi Herders and the Man by the Fire03:22 A Year of Silence04:01 The Welding Torch05:17 Kenneth Brean's Account Begins08:36 The Sphere Over the Trawler11:30 The Smaller Craft12:47 The Beam14:21 Inside the Chamber15:47 The Green Beings and the Tall Ones18:47 Returning to the World19:50 Secrecy, Exile and Death22:58 Searching for the Truth24:20 The Search for the Ship25:40 Prince Charles27:45 The Wreck at Karken30:35 What the Crew List Cannot Explain33:52 Outro & ThanksSourcesUFO magazine (Norway): "UFO" nr. 2, 1982— publication of the Kenneth Brean account.Tromsø newspaper, December 27, 1955 — interview with pilot Strand on the loss of Prince Charles.👍 Like, comment, and subscribe if you enjoy forgotten casework and eerie true accounts.👽 Support the channel:Support the channel:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCo7xcWPbM5ZVNz4sFpyE79A/membership/membershiphttps://buymeacoffee.com/storieslostThank you for watching Stories Lost!#UFO #UAP #StoriesLost #CloseEncounter #MissingAtSea #Norway #Arctic #HumanoidEncounter #HighStrangeness #Paranormal #AlienAbduction #MissingTime #UFOHistory #Mystery #Unexplained #Documentary #TrueStories #ColdWarUFO

    He Opened Fire on the Aliens — And Paid the Price

    Stories Lost Short Cases #4 – Close Encounters, Closer Than ExpectedA shot fired in fear.A struggle beside a silent river.A meeting in the fog that no one could explain.This week on Stories Lost, Short Cases, we look at three lesser known encounters where witnesses found themselves at remarkably close range with something they could not identify — and in some of these cases, close encounter really does mean close.We begin in Goiás, Brazil, in 1967, where farmer Inácio de Souza fired his rifle at three beings standing beside a landed craft, and would be dead within fifty nine days. From there we travel to the Loire in France, where Micheline G was seized by a pair of enormous black hands on an empty path in 1950. And we end in the Sauerland forests of Germany, where a forest warden reached out to touch a silver object in a meadow, and woke up surrounded by four small beings breathing through masks.Was Inácio's illness radiation sickness, misdiagnosed leukemia, or something science still can't explain? Was Micheline attacked by something intelligent, or something that mistook her for a threat?

    Forgotten Encounters in the Nordics | SL Short Cases #3

    In this third episode of Stories Lost Short Cases, we return to the roots of this channel and explore three little-known encounters from across the Nordic countries.A Swedish driver reports a gigantic craft hovering above a forest road. A Finnish woman encounters a glowing humanoid figure walking through the darkness. And in the final months before Finland's independence, a woman from rural Karelia tells a story that sounds astonishingly modern despite taking place decades before the UFO era had even begun.Separated by time, geography, and circumstance, these accounts share a common thread: ordinary people describing experiences they struggled to explain.Were these encounters misinterpretations, folklore, psychological experiences, or glimpses of something genuinely unknown?Chapters00:00 Introduction & Stories Lost TV01:59 The Arkelstorp Encounter (Sweden, 1991)08:20 The Saima Gerkman Encounter (Finland, 1970)15:32 The Anni Lattu Case (Karelia, 1917)21:44 Before Flying Saucers: Why the 1917 Account Matters23:44 Outro & ThanksSourcesUFO Information. 1991.
