Torn from today’s headlines, here is one man’s desperate attempt to warn the world that we are not alone. From beyond the stars, these interstellar immigrants have come to enslave mankind…and they are already here living among us! Professor Albert Wilmarth has arrived at tonight’s meeting of the NY Psychical Society to tell his tale about a missing colleague, Henry Akeley, a farmer in Northern Vermont, who had convinced Wilmarth that there are strange beings living in the remote woods on Dark Mountain … beings who are not of this world, but, sometimes, appear to be human. Now, Wilmarth has come here tonight to relive his harrowing experience and tell the rest of us that Akeley was not wrong.
