Taken . . . and Taken Again
A familiar aspect of nightmares is the exhausting repetition of unpleasant situations. The dreamer feels pursued and trapped. Some abductees experience similar discomfiture because they suffer alien abduction not just once but multiple times. One of the more celebrated of those unfortunates is Debbie Tomey, who was taken near Indianapolis on June 30, 1983. She later recalled the insertion of probes into her nose and abdomen, and although she had not been in good health before this ordeal, she showed no obvious ill effects after her release. But on October 3, 1983, Debbie Tomey was abducted again.
This time, her alien captors informed her that during her earlier visit male aliens impregnated her nine times. As Tomey struggled to absorb that, her abductors brought an alien child into the chamber. As Tomey stared, the kidnappers declared that the child was a hybrid—and that it was hers.
As the pseudonymous Kathie Davis Tomey, Debbie Tomey became a central figure of Intruders: The Incredible Visitations at Copely Woods, a popular 1983 book by UFOlogist, artist, and Guggenheim Fellow Budd Hopkins. During hypnotic regression performed later, Tomey remembered that she had been regularly abducted by aliens since she was a child of six.
