Netflix’s new series, ‘Files of the Unexplained,’ delves into the mysteries of our world through an eight-part documentary journey.
The first episode highlights the disturbing and well-known alien abduction claim involving Calvin Parker, who, along with Charles Hickson, became the center of a chilling tale of alien encounters.
On the evening of October 11, 1973, in Pascagoula, Mississippi, Parker and Hickson experienced an event that would become etched in UFO lore. While engaged in a leisurely fishing trip, the pair came across an unusual, oval-shaped vessel decorated with blue lights descending from the sky.
Accompanied by a strange buzzing sound, the ship hovered only a few meters above the earth.
From this mysterious vessel emerged three entities, humanoid yet alien in shape, each about five feet tall. Their faces were eyeless and had only narrow mouths, and their hands resembled the claws of a lobster, all moving mechanically.
Parker recounted the harrowing moment they were grabbed and brought aboard the UFO, propelled into intense clarity.
“These things affected us. Two grabbed Charlie, the other grabbed me and they turned around and carried us back inside what I now know is a UFO, a spaceship or whatever it was, and we headed towards that big bright light. ,” Parker later recalled.
On board the alien ship, Parker and Hickson underwent an invasive examination. As suddenly as it began, the ordeal ended and the two found themselves back on the beach, the UFO nowhere to be seen and no trace of the encounter left behind.
Despite skepticism, Hickson maintained the truth of their story until his death in 2011, and Parker remained steadfast in his testimony until his death in 2023.
“Files of the Unexplained” is available for streaming and offers all eight episodes on Netflix.
