The AnecdotalistEp. 24 The Aurora Texas UFOAlien and UFO EncountersSomething was laid to rest in a small town cemetery in Aurora, Texas. In 1897, an “airship” collided with Judge Proctors’ windmill, exploding and throwing shards of molten Aluminum and Iron all across his property. A small, humanoid creature was pulled from the wreckage. Some say the body of the alien is still there, buried in the town cemetery.Visit us at:https://theanecdotalistpodcast.com/Follow us on:Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/AnecdotalistPodInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/th...2024-12-2149 minThe AnecdotalistEp. 23 October Spooktactular 3.
