Having spent the last few years living in South Dakota, veteran artist Ron Keel is primed for one very busy 2018. Following his recent signing to Dave Ellefson’s EMP Label Group, the Metal Cowboy will re-issue his 2014 album, aptly titled, Metal Cowboy Reloaded. The release is a remixed/remastered…

Here’s an odd little piece of editorializing that paranormalist John Keel did in September 1970. Site manager Doug Skinner notes that the article attacks “censorship and government boondoggles.” We find the piece interesting for its showing how far Keel had come from the ET explanation for “funny lights in the sky” that characterized his 1967 […]

Concerned by what he regards as an attempted transformation of ufology to a “dark and demonic…paranormal enterprise,” Rich Reynolds offers another explication by Spanish thinker and ufologist Jose Antonio Caravaca of his novel “Distortion Theory.” This adds to our understanding of Caravaca’s interesting and perhaps unfolding thought upon the matter, and invites us to hope […]

Doug Skinner, long-time John Keel friend and maintainer of this site dedicated to the late paranormalist, now takes us into September 1967 with more doings by the local contactees. Keel’s interest in the Pleiades cluster as a possible home for “the Android group and the ‘blue-eyed blonds’” is itself interesting. Rich Reynolds produces a Keel […]

Red Dirt Report BOOK REVIEW: "Operation Trojan Horse" by John A. KeelRed Dirt Report“Our skies have been filled with 'Trojan horses' throughout history, and like the original Trojan horse, they seem to conceal hostile intent” – John A. Keel, 1969. Over the many years that I have read about, researched and personally experienced the …

“Apparently there are hundreds of saucer people and contactees on Long Island.” So said the late John Keel in one of the more substantive yet outrageous journal entries chronicling his ongoing involvement with apparent “android aliens” and their human intermediary Jaye Paro. The rescue narrative that makes up most of Keel’s entry is just flat […]

Continuing our saga into the weirdness surrounding the late John Keel, Doug Skinner posts a transcription of another message from John’s alien/android main contact Apol. Skinner picks out some points from this rambling document that do seem especially interesting and must have been particularly meaningful to John himself. Things pick up again, in earnest, in […]

We may be entering a new phase in the old John Keel/Jaye Paro/alien android saga. Apol, or “Appel,” apparently leaves near the end of July 1967 for a vacation/trip that will last until September 7th at least. He sends two messages to John introducing human intermediary Jaye Paro’s “new contact, Rubin.” Keelian site manager Doug […]

Those who have been following our coverage of John Keel’s notes will not be surprised to read a “chapter” which is so various in its craziness that one loses momentary touch with the Armageddon Moment that is forecast to be imminent. Each short paragraph has its own surprising insanity, mystery, or seriocomic moment. Then John, […]

Those of you who have been following this most bizarrely fascinating series of posts will sense that things are truly coming to a head, at least in John Keel’s own head. He seems to have bought in completely to the prophecies of the “androids” who, through his contact Jaye Paro, have been feeding him a […]
