Oh yeah UFOs. I kind of trace that to the era of TV (unlike personalized era today) when I would watch something and then stumble on some UFO documentary about all these cases, like she saw that, they were visited, pilots encountered... I mean there was even claim by an astronaut Gordon Cooper that he was in the desert for some army reason when flying saucer landed and army took the aliens to some secret place.
I guess person could get caught in it and people do, but let's face it they are all just stories. Actually bit more then stories, they have this tyranny with it that you have to believe in this fantastical worldview of giant conspiracies, because if you don't you're doomed, they're messing with your brain, they're abducting you. Very much like the tyranny of religion.
There really is no evidence. No credible video or photograph or anything else. People do invent stuff or misinterpret. Why? Maybe they just want attention or mostly money, because there really is market for it.
One other thing I noticed is that every so called professional ufologist, that writes books and holds lectures, is always dismissive toward other ufulogist and thinks that only his worldview is right. You know some people are against abductions, some are for it, some claim that most modern tech comes from reversed engineering, some believe aliens are running the governments, some are against it and so on.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
