Close Encounters in Sweden: The Fire People and the Owl Beings (SITS CLASSIC)
Somewhere in the SkiesSep 16, 2026
Swedish ufologist Fred Andersson returns to dig up forgotten 1960s and 1970s Swedish close encounters, including glowing fire humanoids seen in doorways of light, white-clad beings chasing children from a mine, and green antennaed figures that vanished into thin air. He links these strange, personal experiences to Scandinavian folklore about trolls, mine spirits, forest nymphs and fire spirits. He also argues that the UFO phenomenon behaves like a trickster with a sense of humor, and warns that the post-2017 focus on military witnesses risks losing sight of how weird the subject really is.
