Betty Hill. A famous UFO Abductee.

Our meeting with Betty Hill came about when we were filming an impromptu session with two television producers and a lady who identified herself as "Betty" showed up, along with another man in spirit, who was a well known producer. (I'm not sure but his name might have been Victor). It turned out he had made a documentary film on Betty Hill about her abduction experience with her husband, Barny.

This was an unexpected and pleasant surprise for the producers we were doing the session with, since they knew the producer in spirit quite well.  The session was very interesting, for them and for me, as I had long ago read all about Betty and Barny Hill.  As our meeting came to an end, we looked at Marti's pictures.  Betty had posed for Marti!  She had captured an excellent likeness of her.  But, as we would discover, this was not the end of the connection with Betty.

Time goes by.......

We were invited to be a part of the Ghost Hunters event at Mount Washington, but first we decided to go to Salem, Massachusetts and visit Patrick Burns' event called Ghostfest the day before.  We just wanted to hook up with a few friends for a while, and then drive up to Mount Washington the following day.

We met a lady at Ghostfest who had written a book about paranormal happenings, including the story about Betty and Barny Hill.  I shared with her our connection with Betty and she told us that the place where the abduction occurrence had happened with Betty was not too far away, it was in fact on the way to Mount Washington.

Marti and I left Salem the next morning, and we agreed to visit the abduction site after the convention at Mount Washington.  When the event was over, we headed home driving down to the airport via the location the lady had told us about.  After a few wrong turns, we finally arrived at the gas station she had referenced on the corner.  We pulled up and went inside.

The owners of the gas station, a husband and wife, happened to be there and we talked for a bit getting to know them.  It turned out they were from England, so I did a bit of catching up.  We then told them why we were there and they explained that they, in fact, knew all about Betty.  The husband pointed out the spot across the street where the purported abduction happened many years ago.  "Now, go look in the restroom," he said.  We did and every wall is covered in things to do with Betty! Articles mostly, but other things too.

Before we left we told them we would send a copy of Marti's sketch of Betty to put up in the rest room.  We said goodbye and left the gas station for the airport, eventually arriving at home.  We got busy, and before we could get a copy of Betty to the owner of the gas station, we received an email from them:

Hi there from sunny NH,
What was the background to drawing the picture? I will write a short narrative and put it up.  How about this for coincidence, I know you are into those.  This week a woman who we had never seen before pulled off the highway for gas and went to the restroom.  She stayed in there for ages, came out all flustered.
Betty Hill was her foster mum!!!!!
What a shock for her.  To be sat on the loo (that's toilet, for all you yanks) and look up at Betty.
Regards,
David and Vickie
