Ancient Aliens – The Taken: Millions of people around the world claim to have been abducted by extraterrestrials; whether or not these extraordinary accounts are some form of mass psychological delusion still remains unanswered.

Ancient Aliens is an American television series that premiered on April 20, 2010, on the History channel. Produced by Prometheus Entertainment in a documentary style, the program presents hypotheses of ancient astronauts and proposes that historical texts, archaeology, and legends contain evidence of past human-extraterrestrial contact. The show has been widely criticized by historians, cosmologists, archaeologists and other scientific circles for presenting and promoting pseudoscience, pseudohistory and pseudoarcheology.
Ancient Aliens – The Taken
The show opens with this past June’s Alien Con, the three-day convention the History channel put on to promote Ancient Aliens as a fringe science and science fiction lifestyle brand. The first scene shows the stars of Ancient Aliens asking the audience how many felt that they had been abducted by aliens, and a disturbingly large number of people raised their hands, though of course there is no way to know how honest they are being. We listen to a number of audience members share their abduction stories, which reflect the same pattern seen in other so-called abduction narratives, patterns that reflect the sort of waking dreams people experience near sleep.
Linda Moulton Howe provides a description of a typical abduction, including sleep paralysis, the sensation of floating away from one’s bed, and waking up after the dream ends. Nick Pope says that there are only two possibilities: that alien abductions are real or a mass delusion. I don’t really know how to take this as seriously as the show wants me to since I have had had the same experience, and recognized it as a dream. I woke up and the dream ended without me actually having ever left my bed.
