 Our Review |
Opinion of the webmaster, subject to debate  |
Describes the odd happenings in the San Luis Valley in
south-central Colorado. You have your lights darting
across the sky. You have your black helicopters.
You have strange military maneuvers, bigfoot
sightings, cattle mutilations, abductions, and an occasional devil
sighting or two. The San Luis Valley has it all,
and this book is your definitive guide to the area.
In spite of the potentially lurid subject matter, O'Brien
is restrained in his reporting, and avoids jumping to
conclusions.
Dozens of incidents and claims are faithfully recorded,
mostly from 1989 through 1995,
in a likeable book that is easy to read.
(It is marred, however, by the lack of an index.)

From the Book Cover
"THIS IS NOT A WORK OF FICTION...IN COLORADO AND
NEW MEXICO'S SAN LUIS VALLEY, REALITY CAN BE
STRANGER THAN FICTION."
Like other residents of the strange communities of Crestone
and the Baca, Christopher O'Brien was drawn to the sacred
valley of Native American myth. He was soon compelled to
document, in disturbing detail, the inexplicable events
unfolding around him and the questions they raised:
- What is the truth behind the nightly light show of UFOs pulsing across the sky?
- What are the strange rumbling noises coming from underground?
- What is the orgin of a mysterious crystal skull found in the Baca?
- And most frightening of all, who is responsible for the scores of cattle left bloodless and mutilated in inhuman fashion?
Including fascinating and sometimes frightening first-hand accounts by
residents of the area, The Mysterious Valley reveals the story of one of
the most bizarre regions on the face of the earth and its chilling implications
for the rest of humanity.

Regarding "The Mysterious Valley" - Latest First

UFO Mystery
having just finished reading "the mysterious valley" i was
amazed at all the information involving ufo's, government
helicopters and animal mutilations. it appears to me that most flying
craft (ufo's) sighted are u.s. gov't models in the experimental
stages. think about the technology we've attained in the last
40 years. i can't help but believe it was taken from so-called
crashed flying saucers. there have been too many sightings
by too many people and there are more and more authentic videos to back
up sightings. when will the governments of the world open up
and just level with us?
