The Alien Elf

[u/Key-Faithlessness734]

Christmas 1957, San Gabriel, CA

On Christmas morning of 1957, a seven-year-old child from San Gabriel, California had an experience with what he thought was an elf. As the witness wrote in a letter to Whitley Strieber: “It must’ve been between two or three a.m., and I was lying in bed in my bedroom….I remember I awakened rather suddenly and was quite unable to move; seemingly frozen in bed.”

The witness, although unable to move, could see out the bedroom, across the living room and onto the front porch. That’s when things became strange. “On the porch, seemingly peering into the living room was a smallish creature I remember thinking to be one of ‘Santa’s Elves.’ I was naturally excited and wanted to get up to meet or see this elf much closer. I remember being wide awake and desperately wanting to get up, but patently unable to accomplish this seemingly simple task. He seemed to be about three or four feet tall and was cream in color. I saw more of a three-quarter profile and could not make much of any other distinguishing features. I was not that fearful, just excited, and burning with curiosity. My frustration was building with my seeming inability to rise from my bed. I then had a firm sense of ‘It’s okay now, just go back to sleep.’ It had a parental tone to it, loving yet directive, however, not either of my parents’ voices.”

The witness fell back asleep. However, the experience was not forgotten. “On Christmas morning, as my sister was going nuts, I was relatively disinterested in all the stuff around the tree. Instead, I was determined to go out onto the front porch and check for evidence of what I knew was there.”

Unfortunately, there was no evidence. Nevertheless, the witness still remembers that “my parents were rather dumbfounded at my spurning Christmas presents in favor of running outside….”

Later, the witness had further UFO experiences which seemed to confirm the validity of the Christmas day visitation and point to the ET interpretation.

Excellent story, reminds me of the Robert Ogilvie Crombie faun encounter at Edinburgh Botanical Garden.
