WEIRD AFTER DARK: Early Century UFOs… The Dawn of Encounters 1900-1930

Listen to “Early Century UFOs… The Dawn of Encounters 1900-1930” on Spreaker.
In this deep-dive episode, the hosts explore compelling evidence that UFO encounters and alien visitations began decades before the famous 1947 Roswell incident. Drawing from the latest Weird Darkness episode by Darren Marlar, they examine detailed accounts from 1900-1930 that challenge the conventional timeline of modern UFO history.
The discussion covers three distinct periods: the turn of the century (1900-1909) featuring controlled aerial maneuvers, underwater submersible objects, and bizarre entity encounters including a traumatic abduction in the Netherlands; the wartime surge (1910-1919) with increased sightings during WWI, the controversial Red Baron dogfight story, and early abduction cases featuring beings with tentacles and telepathic abilities; and the quieter 1920s with targeted visitations to scientific facilities.
The episode’s centerpiece is the 1941 Cape Girardeau, Missouri crash retrieval—six years before Roswell. The hosts detail how Reverend Huffman was called to administer last rites to what turned out to be three “grey” aliens, and how FDR’s midnight meeting with Manhattan Project scientists suggests recovered technology may have accelerated America’s atomic program. They also examine WWII’s “Foo Fighters” and a French laborer’s encounter with a female pilot in a pressurized suit operating a seamless craft designed for extreme G-forces.
The hosts conclude that the phenomenon’s diversity—from pigeon-headed beings to human-like operators—and its consistent interest in human technological development suggests an ongoing intelligence that has monitored humanity since the dawn of the 20th century.
