Alien Descriptions: Danie van Graan's thin, pale beings, Loxton

Loxton, Karoo, Northern Cape, South Africa

What was reported

The third 'Alien Descriptions' box, on page 31 after the Project Becassine extract, carries Danie van Graan's memory of the beings in the Loxton case. He describes them as somewhat small and thin, pale rather than healthy or robust, with slanting eyes and long faces whose high cheekbones narrowed to a sharp chin. As with the other two boxes, the issue supplies no date, narrative or investigation for the encounter itself; it is printed purely as a specimen of the entity types reported to Hind from South Africa, and readers are left to find the full case elsewhere in her work.

In their words

  • They were a bit on the small side... rather thin and pale.

  • they had slanting eyes, long faces with high cheek-bones, coming down to a sharp chin.

    06-17-2 prints van Graan's entity description as an undated specimen with no narrative; 19-14-2 carries the same description (slanting eyes, long face, high cheekbones tapering to a sharp chin) and supplies the date. The undated box is this case, so 06-17-2 is not an extra report.

  • Danie van Graan and the caravan without wheels, LoxtonCase fileSame behaviour

    Slanted eyes and small stature in both, but 21-03-1 identifies the source as the same witness, so this is repetition, not agreement between observers.
