George Hunt Williamson

They were contacted through seances.

George Hunt Williamson, a homemade Ouija board, contacts extraterrestrials until multiple voices come out of his body at the same time.

So, again, what are we dealing with here? I'm more focused on the function now.

none on the form because realizing that the phenomenon could take whatever form it wants to, but, and that's not how we're going to be able to test the spirits.

Mm-hmm

... one of the people who found Pelley through that scene was George Hunt Williamson.

He moved to Soulcraft headquarters in Indiana and started writing a UFO column in Pelley's own magazine, and two years later, Williamson is standing in the California desert next to George Adamski when Adamski meets the first friendly alien in American history.

E.T.?

So, if Pelley wrote the source code, Williamson is how it got installed in modern spiritual circles, I guess.

Uh-huh.

George Hunt Williamson is an amateur anthropologist, occultist, and one of the founding figures of the 1950s contactee movement.

He is not famous.

I have to sum it up somehow.

George Hunt Williamson or his...

Oh, when are we going to

do these

It's every, it's all my journey in Latin America.

It's my, it starts off with the Adamski story, George Hunt Williamson's taking the footprints of Orthon.

It talks about, you know, the human type alien contact that there was.

Now, remember, we also have Travis Walton.

And in the 1950s and 60s, four men named George stood at the strange and glowing heart of the contactee movement.

George Adamski, George Van Tassel, George Hunt Williamson, and George King, each claimed to have received messages from extraterrestrial intelligences but the details of what they saw, heard, and built couldn't have been more different.

One spoke face-to-face with a radiant Venusian in the California desert.

Another built a dome in the Mojave to manipulate time and rejuvenate the human body.

These images would go on to be among the most widely circulated UFO photographs of the period, published in newspapers and magazines around the world.

Adamski's success encouraged others to share their contact experiences.

George Hunt Williamson, who had allegedly witnessed Adamski's desert encounter, was among them.

Williamson, who styled himself as an anthropologist and archaeologist, went in a different direction with his contactee claims, developing methods of using electronics to get in contact with extraterrestrial intelligences.
