Justice for Delsey, the disappearing dachshund!

The alien abduction of Betty and Barney Hill is the pioneer extraterrestrial story for the United States, and Appalachia. While almost certainly there had been otherworldly experiences prior to this one, this is the story that really put aliens on our radar, so to speak.

Interesting this one takes place in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, known for being extremely rugged. Typically you hear a lot of desert alien encounter stories... Perhaps just because visibility is better? Anyhow, this one was a lot of run to research, so I hope y'all enjoy!

Stay tuned after the ending song to hear a clip from The Innis Forgettance, a fictional story set in an alternate Appalachia. You can find Leah Noel at Instagram.com/leah.with.a.pen, and The Innis Forgettance anywhere you listen to podcasts.
