The Devils Harvest: The End of All Flesh.

I turned the book over. In large red capital letters it read: WORLDS WITHIN WORLDS. MANKIND NEEDS TO WAKE UP BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.
I flipped open the cover to check its date of printing, expecting it to be late 70’s early 80’s, and was shocked to note it was dated 2011, even with its dog-eared state.
It had been left for a reason.
I started reading it.
I was enthralled as I read the first chapter, about the author’s studies. His culmination of research from the fifties to the present day. UFOs. Hairy unidentified creatures. Things most sensible people wouldn’t even consider. A good Sunday afternoon read when there was nothing entertaining on the television.
Or has peoples perspectives changed?
Recently with all the blockbuster movies covering aliens in the cinemas, people’s interest has been reignited. Movies such as Skyline, Independence Day, District 9, Clover field, Signs, Paul, Monsters, Predator, The Battle for Los Angeles and Cowboys and Aliens, just to name a few. Not to mention the original Star Wars and the three new Star Wars movies; and new cartoon series, bringing it to a whole new generation.
The unexplained is being dissected by everyone. I personally have an interest because of my own books, looking through websites such as, unexplained-mysteries.com to find out information, or to chat on its forum with its over 100,000 members or reading through its over 4,000,000 posts.
The small book went on to say, which kick-started my interest, about strange winged monsters. Hadn’t I just seen such a thing? A group of them passing right before me.
It referred to them – as many books of its times did – as a Mothman. The name coming from a comic book character from the seventies, and an evil fiend fighting against Batman in his television show. The book stated they were still an enigmatic figure, a fascinating and compelling mystery from ages past. Sometimes determined to save lives, other times standing by to watch the death of untold thousands. But it said nothing about them causing the deaths.
I had seen otherwise.
It was getting cold on the bench.
I slipped the pedant into my tracksuit pocket and walked back to the car with the book.
The old man had pointed the way, saying the left lane led back to the farmhouse and the entities, or whatever they are.
The countryside was silent, seemingly knowing what was happening. No birds flew in the sky. Even the wind had died away. All was still and deadly silent. As if the countryside was holding its breath.
I sat behind the wheel, trying to decide what to do, rain started to patter against the windshield, it became heavier until I couldn’t see beyond the car windows, which even now were starting to steam up inside.
I gulped from a bottle of warm orange Tango and started eating a scotch egg that I had pilfered from the small shop.
I looked at the book on the passenger seat.
I picked it up.
I carried on reading.
The book continued explaining about mysterious events. About how the author investigates such phenomenon. Applegate was possibly the foremost in his field. Being a writer I marvelled at his technique. Brilliant. Keeping the reader completely engrossed.
The rain pelted down hard, created a tattoo on the metal roof. The sun started its downward spiral, as I sat reading from the small paperback.
No other cars came along the narrow lane. I heard nothing. Life seemed to have fled the area. All that could be heard was the crunching of a chocolate bar, and the turning of the pages.
I read on.
The book started by explaining about different observable facts worldwide. Calling it a tapestry of the unexplained, because everything seemed to be interweaved. For instance, the North American Indian burial mounds were laid out and constructed with the same mathematical precision as the great pyramids of ancient Egypt, the Puma Punku temple in Bolivia, as well as Stonehenge in Europe. Every major, ancient world culture has similarities in their building style, even though – apparently – the cultures remained, and advanced separate.
Also, how did the ancient people build these monoliths, it asks?
Amazingly, the great pyramid of Gaza is positioned on the exact intersection – to mere millimeters – of the world’s longest line of latitude and the world’s longest line of longitude, sitting perfectly in the exact middle of all the worlds landmass. And the pyramids four sides align perfectly with the sides of a compass; even though such an instrument was unknown to the Egyptians and wasn’t invented until thousands of years later.
Stonehenge and its mystical circles. Built over a three thousand year period, other sections being added over time. How had they collected the huge twenty tonne slabs of bluestone that came from the Welsh mountains over three hundred miles away? Or move the fifty tonne sarsen stones that came from Marlborough Downs, over twenty mile away? And how, from above, it was laid out in the same mathematical precision as our solar system, with the sun as the centre and all the planets circling. It wasn’t until thousands of years later that Galileo Galilei first made the discovery that the earth orbited the sun. And hundreds of years after that that all the planets were discovered.
And Stonehenge in Salisbury England isn’t the only one of its kind. America even has its own version, called Mystery Hill in Salem, New Hampshire.
There is one site, the Armenia’s Carahunge stone circle, situated in the area of Sisian, which is one of the oldest megalith sites in the world, dating back to around 5500 BC. But what singles this site out is that the standing stones have holes bored through them that align with different constellations. The principal stellar alignment is towards Deneb, a star in the constellation of Cygnus the Swan.
Even older, which has been classed as the oldest known manmade megalithic structure is Gobekli Tepe in south-eastern Turkey, which predates Stonehenge by more than 6,000 years, making the site over 11,000 years old. This was built 6,000 years before writing was supposedly invented. And even more startling is this site is also connected to the constellation of Cygnus the Swan.
In the Temple of Jupiter, in the Bekaa Valley of Lebanon, there are stones incorporated into the building that weights an estimated one thousand tonnes. There is another stone that rests on the ground at the quarry, which weights an estimated twelve hundred tonnes. Today it would take over twenty heavy lift cranes to even raise it an inch off the ground. How did the ancient civilization – that supposedly didn’t even have pulleys or the wheel – move them the half mile to the temple?
It goes on to say that in the Puma Punku temple in Bolivia (which is in the fight with Gobekli Tepe for the oldest site) that dates back to 10,000 BC, making it over 12,000 years old. Stones here are cut with laser precision, in to complicated patterns and interlocking designs. Even with the technology we have today, we would find it almost impossible to duplicate such an achievement. And this is from a people that had no forms of writing. And like all other cultures of the time, no wheel or pulleys. Just stone age cutting tools – apparently.
Just outside Mexico City, Mexico is Teotihuacán, containing one of the largest pyramidal structures built in the Americas (Coincidently its base is exactly the same size as the Great Pyramid of Gaza). The site consists of two vast pyramids – the Pyramid of the Sun and the Pyramid of the Moon, as well as numerous smaller temples and other structures running down a vast section called The Avenue of the Dead. But what is most surprising, is just like Stonehenge in England, this collection of pyramids and temples are laid out in the same exact mathematical precision, copying our solar system. The Pyramid of the Sun represents our own sun, and all the other pyramids and temples representing the different planets elliptical orbits.
Is it just coincidence that this theme springs up in ancient megalithic structures during different time periods and on different continents all over the world?
It continued on about old burial sites and stone buildings from different locations around the world. Most stone structures and etchings could only be understood from a high alti
tude, looking down. All of the civilizations didn’t have any means to do so.
The most famous example is the Nazca Lines, in the Nazca Desert in southern Peru. These are vast geoglyphs etched in the surface of the desert pampa sand. There are over three hundred figures made of straight lines, geometric shapes and pictures of animals and birds. All can only been seen from a high altitude.
Archaeologists, ethnologists and anthropologists have for years studied the ancient Nazca culture to try and determine the purpose of the lines and figures, some of which are over three hundred meters long. One theory is that the Nazca people created them to be seen by their gods in the sky. One single line is over twenty-three miles long – that looks surprisingly like a runway – cuts across several mountain ranges, which have the summits completely flattened, millions of tonnes of rock gone, which isn’t anywhere in the vicinity? How could an ancient civilization (that only had stone tools) flatten whole mountain ranges?
One Nazca image is called the Mandala, which is a large square measuring 180 feet across with a large inner circle and many smaller circles. Researcher Gilbert de Jong believes it is an ancient depiction of consternations.
Could all these monolithic structures and drawings have the same builders? The same architects? Influenced by other entities? Entities that had far advanced technologies that help design and build these structures.
The book explained about famous researchers and authors who specialize in UFO’s, such as Brinsley Le Poer Trench, with his Hollow Earth theory. Jacques Vallee, who is famous for promoting the Interdimensional hypothesis. And the most famous of all Erich von Däniken with his book, Chariots of the Gods. Däniken believes that ancient aliens landed on earth tens of thousands of years ago, and are the source of all our worlds Gods and myths. He single-handedly popularized the paleocontact and ancient astronaut hypotheses.
Like Erich von Däniken all the authors believe the reason for all these coincidences are the effect of aliens that have been manipulating mankind since the beginning. How else, they have asked, could civilizations from one side of the planet to the other have been copying each other’s designs? Unless some higher power was involved, coordinating everything.
One famous UFO specialist, John A. Keel, explained about strange beings in his famous book, The Mothman Prophesies – which has since been adapted in to a blockbuster movie. He states, anthropologists have constructed a map of ancient Indian occupancy. The Monacan settled the lands to the east. The Erie and Conestoga made their homes in the north. The Shawnee and Cherokee occupied the south and southwest. Even the barren deserts of the far west was divided and settled. In the whole country there was only one location that was referred to as uninhabited.
The area has unusual ancient stone ruins, set out with mathematical precision. If the Indians didn’t settle in this area, then who built them? And why did the ancient Indians avoid this fertile section of land?
An old Indian legend talks about tall white skinned, large wide eyes strange beings that populated this part of the country. And this was long before any white Europeans came exploring and destroying in the area.
Hadn’t the little old man resembled a native Indian? His tinted red skin, high cheekbones.
This small books hypothesis made it stand out at the time, and highly ridiculed. The author strongly believes that beings unbeknown to us, but effecting us, reside on our own world but somehow remain concealed from us. Living in a dimension beyond the reaches of our scientific instruments. They are not creatures from outer space, from another galaxy, but have always been here, always effecting us, and will be here long after we are gone.
They are not extraterrestrial, but rather, ultraterrestrial. He followed the Jacques Vallee line of thought.
I remembered the image of their craft buried deep in the earth at the farmyard. I presumed them to be from another planet, another solar system. What if they were from here, needing a vehicle to cross over in to our timeframe, our dimension.
It talked about the Mothman again, but in more detail.
From as far back as man can ascertain these beasts have been known about. Adorning cavern walls in Southern France, and in similar caves in Northern Ireland, and in deep underground chambers in Somerset; England, dating back to before Christ. They were depicted on the inside of ancient Indian burial mounds throughout America and Canada, even as far down as Argentina. Also, written on old manuscripts found in medieval vaults in Yorkshire, England. Even being carved on ancient stone wall hieroglyphics in the tomb of several pharaohs.
Hundreds of stories from countless countries, all describing and depicting them the same; large humanoid shaped, around ten feet tall, wide at the shoulders tapering down to a narrow waist. Large wings around ten feet in width that fold close to its back, and being grey-black in colour. What dominates though are its fiery red eyes.
The author also believed that the demons of old have been constructed from what people had seen of these beasts. Countless witnesses from around the world have seen these demon-like apparitions. Symptoms of close contact is unparalleled fear, pouring from the red eyes creature, making you want to curl up and die, or run until your body could no longer support your weight. Most though couldn’t move, transfixed, staring at the spectre. Also the strong lingering smell of sulphur. The ancients referred to it as the smell of Fire and Brimstone, also associated with demons and the devil.
Another reaction to close contact is suffering from watery, red swollen eyes. Medically termed as Klieg Conjunctivitis – eye burn. Supposedly caused by ultraviolet rays – actinic rays.
My eyes caused me no pain in any form. Had I been far enough away for it not to effect me? Or had being in such close quarters with smoking man given me some kind of immunity?
What was I taking from this book? Is it possible these beings are in control of these so-called Mothmen? Using them as reapers in what they referred to as The Harvest? Or were the beasts simply the means to take the life from humans and animals alike, killing them without damaging what they needed? And they had other means of collecting the souls. Possibly a device in the craft?
The book also talked about beings that turn up in the same location as the Mothman, referring to them as Oriental in appearances and small in stature.
But what dominates most of the book though, is UFO’s.
It goes into detail about the most famous UFO story of all time – Roswell, New Mexico. It’s a story everyone knows well, mainly because it is the only official time the military acknowledged the existence of UFO’s.
On July 8th, 1947, Roswell Army Air Field public information office issued a press release, stating that personnel from the field’s 509th Bomb Group had recovered a crashed ‘flying disc’ from a ranch near Roswell. It was splashed all over the front page of Roswell’s Daily Record newspaper.
They soon changed their tune. The following day the Commanding General of the Eighth Air Force stated, it was in fact a radar-tracking balloon that had been recovered by the RAAF personnel, not a flying disc.
The book goes on to explain that UFO’s have been witnessed, written about, and depicted in art and ancient paintings, as well as cave drawings for as long as man has inhabiting the planet.
There is UFO imagery on cave walls in Tanzania, Africa that are estimated to be over 29,000 years old. One in Itolo that has a disc shaped object floating over the land. Another in Kolo that has four beings abducting a woman, with a UFO floating above with even a being looking out the box shaped object.
In the French cave of Pech Merle near Le Cabrerets there are cave paintings estimated at between 17,000 and 15,000 BC which depict a landscape full of animals and scenery. But it also has numerous unidentified flying objects depicted in the scene along with a multiple armed being.
There are more at Toro Muerto, Peru estimated at 12,000 to 14,000 years old. The ones at Val Camonica, Italy are dated around 10,000 BC. At Tassili in the Sahara Desert, North Africa there is wall paintings of humanoid beings in spacesuits, an
d flying discs, dated to around 6,000 BC. In Sego Canyon, Utah there is a wall painting estimated to be 7,500 years old depicting aliens with antenna. At Kimberley, Australia there are depictions of aliens dating back 5,000 years. And these are just a few of the hundreds of unexplained cave drawings from all around the world.
America has always had UFO sightings, but they have soared since 1946. The most notable of that year being the famous ‘Battle of Los Angeles,’ where a UFO was fired upon by US troops. A photo was even taken of the event, capturing a large floating disc in many searchlight beams.
It has been estimated that there has been tens of thousands of eyewitness accounts of unexplained flying saucers documented worldwide since 1946.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) is a United States government agency which runs the civilian arm of the space program. NASA was established by the National Aeronautics and Space Act on July 29th 1958. The aim of NASA, according to their own website, is: ‘To reach for new heights and reveal the unknown so that what we do and learn will benefit all humankind.’ But for the last fifty years it has being doing the opposite, purposefully hiding and covering up information. It has at least twenty known (leaked) film clips showing UFO’s in their extensive archives. Also fifteen NASA astronauts have gone on record saying they have psychically witnessed UFO’s.
