Metcalf, IL abduction report — June 16, 1974

A bedroom encounter was reported at Metcalf, Illinois, on June 16, 1974. The surviving summary describes three small humanoid figures approaching the observer inside the room. The observer said that the figures led them away from the house toward a UFO standing in a field. A fourth figure was associated with a communication understood as telepathic, conveying that the observer should cooperate. The account then refers to samples being collected. The preserved digest does not specify what samples were involved, how they were obtained or the sequence of return from the field. The event’s surviving outline moves from the bedroom figures to the nearby craft, the fourth figure’s message and the sampling episode.
