The Ashland Abduction: When a Nebraska Cop Met the Winged Serpent Watchers 🐍
By Juniper Ravenwood
A Quiet Night Turns Otherworldly 🌫️
On December 3, 1967, 22-year-old Patrolman Herbert Schirmer was on routine patrol in Ashland, Nebraska when flashing red lights drew him to an impossible sight: a football-shaped metallic craft hovering six feet above Highway 63. What began as a routine check became one of the most compelling early UFO abduction cases on record.
The Missing Twenty Minutes ⏳
After the craft shot skyward, Schirmer returned to the station only to discover twenty minutes had vanished. Headaches, ringing ears, and a painful red welt below his left ear soon followed—physical signs that something more had occurred during those lost moments.
Hypnosis Unveils the Encounter 🌀
Under hypnotic regression, Schirmer described small, grayish beings with slanted eyes and narrow heads escorting him aboard. They communicated telepathically, showed him star maps and propulsion systems, and revealed they were studying humanity through a long-term “breeding analysis.” Most haunting: every being wore the same insignia—a winged serpent on their chest, an ancient symbol that echoes sky gods and forbidden watchers from mythology.
Warnings from the Stars 🌌
The beings delivered a dire message: humanity was on a collision course with environmental destruction and warfare. They claimed hidden bases around the globe and said they had observed us for centuries, intervening only when necessary. Schirmer was returned to his car, the craft gone, but his life forever altered.
Legacy of the Winged Serpent 🐍
Decades before abduction stories followed a predictable script, Schirmer’s account introduced missing time, telepathic contact, medical exams, and environmental warnings that feel eerily prescient today. The winged serpent symbol continues to appear in other reports, fueling theories that modern UFO encounters may connect to humanity’s deepest myths. Schirmer never recanted and lived quietly with the experience, leaving us one enduring question: are we truly alone, or have ancient eyes been watching all along?
