In this thought-provoking lecture we’ll begin with laying a foundation on what cryptids are–and what they might be. Drawing on the groundbreaking work of investigators like Ivan T. Sanderson, Ron Moorhead, Stan Gordon, John Keel and others, we’ll explore the question;
could some cryptids, like Bigfoot and Mothman, be more than just undiscovered animals?

These beings have long been associated with high strangeness–glowing orbs, telepathy, missing time, electromagnetic disturbances, and even UFO sightings. Are they ultraterrestrials, as Keel proposed? Visitors not from distant planets, but from parallel realities, higher dimensions, or the very edges of consciousness itself?

Jeff will also examine the overlap between cryptid encounters and the presence of non-human intelligences often classified as “aliens.” Could these manifestations of unknown hairy beasts, winged beings and shimmering lights in the sky stem from a single source? One that has been interacting with humanity since antiquity under different guises?

Through compelling case studies, patterns in global folklore and emerging theories in UFOlogy and cryptozoology, this presentation will challenge conventional thinking and delve deep into the dimensional nexus where cryptids, the paranormal & extraterrestrial converge.
