Nick Redfern On Military Holographic Bigfoots & The Cardiff Giant
Nick Redfern on the road in ‘Monster Diary’
In the chapter The Monsters of Angel Fire you and Greg Bishop visit Gabe Valdez who has a story of the US government creating possible holographic bigfoots regarding New Mexico. Would you please tell us about that?
NR: Gabe Valdez was a very well respected New Mexico police officer who spent a major amount of time investigating cattle mutilations in the New Mexico area in the 1970s, and who was consulted by the FBI on the subject in the mid to late 70s. He came to believe a major conspiracy was at work, but probably of a governmental nature, rather than ETs. Greg met and chatted with Gabe (who has since sadly passed away) extensively. I met him just once, when me and Greg had lunch with him in late 2009. When I told Gabe I was interested in the Bigfoot puzzle, he told me how he had learned of classified military hologram-based technology to create Bigfoot-type imagery as a kind of psychological weapon tested to see how it could potentially frighten people. Definitely one of the wildest stories of Bigfoot I’ve ever come across, but still fascinating given Gabe’s credentials.
Would you tell us about the Cardiff Giant and some of the hijinks surrounding it?
NR: Yes, the saga of the Cardiff Giant is a very weird one. Basically, the giant was supposedly a ten foot tall “petrified man,” said to have been uncovered on October 16, 1869 by workers digging a well behind the barn of William Newell in Cardiff, New York. In reality, however, the giant was nothing of the sort. It was actually the creation of a New York tobacconist named George Hull; an atheist, who decided to create the thing after a big argument with a fundamentalist minister – a Mr. Turk – about the passage in Genesis 6:4 to the effect that giants once roamed the Earth. But the weird thing is that I spoke with a woman who claimed her father had seen the Cardiff Giant striding through the woods of Cooperstown, NY where the model is housed in the local museum. I know: very strange! She came to believe that what her father saw was a Tulpa version of the giant. The concept of the Tulpa is basically that intense belief in an image can bring it to some form of semi-independent quasi-life. In other words, belief can bring phenomena into existence, and it can be sustained in some form when the mind of the creator continues to accept its reality. But as belief in the Tulpa fades, so it does too, until it fades into the nothingness it once was. It wasn’t, therefore, the hoaxed model the guy saw, but its mind-inspired equivalent, if the story can be believed of course. I love this shit.
