The Skinwalker Ranch - Wormholes, Bovine Corpses + a Paranormal Hotspot

    Tis the season for some weird paranormal blog pieces, and Colorado Kimmie WILL deliver, no doubt about that:

    Oddly enough, this is a place not really mentioned much by native Coloradoans...(drumroll, please)...The Skinwalker Ranch (located in Elbert County, Utah- just SE of Denver), deemed the "Possibly the Spookiest Place on Earth!"  If you're into the paranormal and ET/UFO sitings, you've definitely heard of this ranch.  Originally Navajo land, it was believed to be inhabited by witch doctor haints/spirits.   Also, the History Channel was very much interested in this land due to alleged UFO and paranormal/ghost sightings and all the cattle mutilations (mentioned more in detail later in this blog piece).  

Skinwalker Ranch

QUICK TRIVIA:  Who is the Skinwalker?  As Navajo legend has it, an evil medicine man could take the form of any mythological beast or creature and haunts the land as revenge on the white man.

    The original owners testified to unexplained paranormal activity, UFO sightings, Big Foot sightings, interdimensional orifices in the sky, bizarre cattle mutilations, crop circles, floating animals and orbs with haunting red eyes visiting the property.  So, naturally, in 1996 billionaire Robert Bigelow (UFO geek) purchased this piece of real estate located right across Colorado's NE border with Utah!  He believed the area housed a rip in space + time - wormhole(s).  

Hotel financier, real estate mogul, and billionaire, Robert Bigelow

    Ever wonder where all our tax money goes while our roads look like shit?  Well $22 MILLION tax payer money was gifted from our own Military (the Department of Internal Affairs) to Mr. Robert Bigelow to investigate wormholes on his private property - all classified, of course.  To be more direct, the DIA was interested in: 1) Transversible wormholes, 2) Stargates and negative energy, 3) Invisibility Cloaking, 4) Advanced Nuclear Propulsion for Deep Space Missions, and 5) Space Access.

    To complete the allotted tax funded research, Bigelow employed full-time researchers to live on this real estate and snap pictures should any sci-fi moments occur.  For five years of research, there were always two scientists there to observe.  Spoiler alert - $22 MILLION later, nothing.  In the end, their work yielded jack shit.  Thus, in 2016, Bigelow sold the property to another billionaire.

    The Skinwalker Ranch has inspired a documentary film and a television series, mainly focusing on the cattle mutilations in the 70's.  Apparently cattle was found carved up all over the area - and with surgical precision.  Tongues, sexual organs, anuses, ears, eyes and udders were all removed and the bodies drained of all blood with ZERO tracks leading to the carcuses.  

    For 6 months in 1975 (between May and October) over 200 cases of cattle mutilations were reported in Colorado alone.  One super compelling case that backed some jacked up possible alien shenanigans was going on was in Alamosa, Colorado in 1967.  A horse named "Lady" was found post-mortem partially skinned with her brains, heart, thyroid, and lungs cleanly cut out.  Within 24 hours of the mutilation, a local judge and two cop onlookers witnessed red/organge orbs in the sky (in a triangular formation).

    Then Colorado Senator Floyd Haskell asked the FBI to get involved when the cattle mutilations became the #1 story in Colorado.  Eventually, in 1980, the FBI closed the case stating that there was a common native predator killing the cattle.  Of course, any one with half a brain could tell the mutilations were done by a sharp surgical tool and not the teeth of coyotes.  But, the government believes we are not very smart.  And, let's be completely honest - 2020 proved them to be accurate about that.  I said it.

    Thanks for stopping in!  Drop me a comment on your favorite seasonal scary movie or book!  I'll for sure give it a whirl.  I've turned into quite the homebody lately - making soaps, playing guitar, talking to a special someone on the phone, and reading books (I JUST today obtained my Boulder County library card - Eeeeeeeeee!).

Love, 

Kimmie
