About this item
"They wanted everything we had ... our minds ... bodies, our souls. I thought we were going to die, or had already died and we were being tortured in Hell." - Elise GiffordOn the night of October 21, 1989, nine glowing objects appeared over an empty stretch of the Mojave desert - and turned a couple's quiet weekend into an unearthly nightmare of terror.Elise and Tom Gifford say they were held captive in their camper by nonhuman creatures - and through love and prayer were able to live through psychological torment as their captors manipulated their minds with telepathic power.The Watchers hovered over them for a day and a night, they say, stealing their thoughts and emotions, making them relive their most painful and intimate memories, bringing them to the brink of madness.
