Strange Encounters With Other Beings - Jason Quitt | Ep. 98

AREA52 Podcast (Chris Ramsay)Aug 7, 2026

Author and experiencer Jason Quitt describes how terrifying sleep paralysis episodes in the early 2000s launched him into years of out-of-body experiences, including encounters with shadow beings, giant mantis-like entities, and a hybrid child he says he was shown in an astral nursery. He argues that many alien abduction reports follow the same step-by-step pattern as out-of-body experiences, suggesting much contact may happen in a non-physical realm. He also presents his theory, from his book The Shining Island, that Plato's Atlantis story is a coded allegory of shifting pole stars and cosmic cycles rather than a literal sunken continent.
