Chasing Phantoms

by Carissa Conti

Military abductions and its cousin "MILABS," which involves an alien/human alliance, are two subjects that have only recently begun receiving attention. With heavy focus on aliens over the past five decades, very few people have noticed the role that the U.S. military/government and its black ops sub-factions have played in the role of experimenting on it own personnel, their families, and the population in general. Many people have signs of having been tinkered with and programmed but don't realize it, and even shy away from pursuing the subject, because the grandiose term of "abduction" with its space alien implications doesn't fit their more subtle situation.

"Chasing Phantoms" offers various perspectives on all the main aspects of military and MILAB lore.

Too often, the available abduction material winds the reader up into a negative state and then leaves them hanging on the line, feeling fearful and powerless about their situation. Unlike those books, "Chasing Phantoms" offers tactical tips and advise gleaned from the author's personal experiences to empower the reader and show how much of the negative harassment in abductees' lives can be stopped.

The author seems to be a real abductee, that had passed through several paranormal experiences, and that is very good. However, she seemed to be very impressionable, and because her peers told her about MILABs she believed she is one, despite the fact that there is nothing there that points toward this direction. It just points out how the myth that the miliary is abducting people has been put forward, at times with malice. The author does not hide that she had been very influenced by other authors in this respect.

Interesting read. Don't know if I'm reading the true accounts of a person, or the paranoid delusions of an articulate mad woman, I'll definitely have to look into this subject further.

I could not put this book down. I love anything to do with conspiracy theories and even more so if it involves aliens. This was an alleged true account of one woman’s struggles with being a MILAB (military/alien abductee) and she documents everything rather thouroughly. Many things she experienced seems completely unbelievable, but she also isn’t the only one reporting such things. She cites many other authors and there are links to articles and such that coincide. Chasing Phantoms is a gold mine of sources for anyone intrigued by this topic.

The grammar isn’t perfect, but considering this isn’t exactly a literary piece from an aspiring author, I don’t hold it to the same standards. The content itself was full of suspense and OMG moments that kept me reading.

If I had to pick one thing to nitpick, it would be the fact that she talks about her brother a lot in part one and two but then he just drops out of the story and I was left wondering if he was even still alive. I was interested in his story and following along, so I was hoping there would be some sort of resolution with his case as well as hers. Still, it’s a great story, true or not, that I would highly recommend if you’re into the weird and freaky and enjoy contemplating different and astounding theories about our reality.

I only heard about this book through word of mouth. I did enjoy reading the first half of the book, but then it started to die down for me. However, for many newbies interested in aliens, ufos and mind control-programming it's still a must read. It's great to hear someone's experience with mind control, and ufo encounters. In many instances it really makes me wonder how much of the abductions occur and how much is all in someone's mind?

The good news is that there is some advice on how to deal with certain experiences. The stories of abductions and ufo encounters seem very consistent throughout different people from around the world.

There does seem to be possible programming going on. If these stories are true, then there definitely needs to be de-programming. For someone who has gone through a lot sure seems very grounded to me and still be able to write this book and still maintain a sane mind!

If I would've experienced half the things Carissa has experienced, I would've gone crazy! I don't know if I would ever be able to function in society. This book is a wild ride, but again, it faded away from me. But I did loan this book to a friend and my friend loved it! To each their own.
