I need to tell you about something that happened in my country. Something the government investigated, documented, photographed, and then buried for twenty years. I am a researcher. I have spent years studying what happened on the island of Colares in northern Brazil. And I believe, with everything I have, that what those people experienced was real. And here is what gets me, they documented everything, hundreds of photographs, and then they just buried it. This was 1977. A small fishing village at the mouth of the Amazon River. Maybe two thousand people living there, simple folks who made their living from the sea. They had no electricity in most homes. No telephones. They were isolated from the modern world. And starting in August of that year, something began hunting them at night.
The first reports were scattered. Fishermen out on the water seeing strange lights moving beneath the surface of Marajo Bay. Lights that did not behave like anything they had ever seen. They would rise from the water, hover above the boats, then shoot away at impossible speeds. The fishermen started coming back early, refusing to work after dark. They said the lights were following them. Then the lights started coming to the villages. Every night, after sunset, they would appear from the north. Bright objects of different shapes and sizes. Some were disc-shaped. Others looked like cylinders or cones. Some witnesses described craft shaped like umbrellas, massive things covered in lights. They flew low, just meters above the treetops, completely silent. And they were not just watching. They were doing something far worse.
The locals gave them a name. Chupa-chupa. It means sucker. Because whatever these things were, they were attacking people. Targeting them with beams of light that left them paralyzed, burned, and drained. The attacks followed a pattern. The victim would see a light approaching, usually green at first. Then the light would turn red and narrow into a focused beam, seven or eight centimeters across. It would strike them, usually on the chest or neck. And when it was over, they would have burns on their skin, small puncture marks like needle holes, and an overwhelming weakness. The local doctor, a young woman named Valeria, she was only twenty-two years old at the time. She started documenting these cases. She treated around thirty-five to forty people with identical symptoms. Intense reddening of the skin that looked like radiation burns. burns are often part of the phenomenon - Felix' The hair would fall out around the affected area. The skin would turn black. But strangely, the victims reported no pain, only a slight warmth. And their blood tests showed something disturbing. Low red blood cell counts. Anemia. As if something had been taken from them.
