Jade Ekström's Bizarre Close Encounter - One of the Strangest Cases Ever

This week on Stories Lost, we follow Jade Ekström – a Swedish woman born in 1920, whose life unfolded among diplomats, royalty, and international business circles – when a private memory from Vindö in the Stockholm archipelago is suddenly exposed at a dinner table in rural Guatemala: “we flew in from the east”.Staying close to the testimony and the surviving documentation, the episode links two events described by the same witness: a shared sighting of a luminous object rushing over Kanholm Bay in the late 1940s, and a later encounter in 1958 with a man calling himself Ben Austin – a man who seemed to know too much, offered a “trip around to Venus”, and left Jade with a sense of dread she would never forget.But that’s only part of the story.🔹 Twelve witnesses at a summer house on Vindö🔹 A light stops above the treetops, then shoots upward🔹 A dinner in Guatemala where the past resurfaces🔹 “Would you like to take a trip… to Venus?”🔹 Frank returns at 6 a.m. – changed🕰 Chapters00:00 – A Warm Night in Guatemala00:38 – “You Are Interested in UFOs”01:09 – A Secret From Vindö Resurfaces01:39 – Contact Cases and the Third Way in Ufology02:44 – Who Was “Anna”?
