The Fatal Close Encounter of George Wheeler
Somewhere in the SkiesAug 17, 2026
In April 1976, veteran relief police officer and WWII pilot George Wheeler reported a huge glowing craft hovering over Tuttle Hill in Elmwood, Wisconsin, then radioed that he had been 'hit' by a blue flash that killed his car's radio, lights, and engine. He spent weeks in the hospital with headaches and nightmares that doctors could not explain, soon forgot most details of the event, and died within six months of an unknown cause. Host Ryan Sprague places the case within a wider mid-1970s Wisconsin UFO wave involving car stops, possible missing time, and even reports of green humanoids.
