Ep. 24 The Aurora Texas UFO
Alien and UFO Encounters Something was laid to rest in a small town cemetery in Aurora, Texas. In 1897, an “airship” collided with Judge Proctors’ windmill, exploding and throwing shards of molten Aluminum and Iron all across his property. A small, humanoid creature was pulled from the wreckage. Some say the body of the alien is still there, buried in the town cemetery.
