Question UFO interiors: Are there any good first-hand descriptions?
Besides Bob Lazar's account of the sports model, do any credible accounts of UFO interiors come to mind? I made this one for an indie RPG about alien abductions, but I'd like to create some more maps of different UFO interiors. This one includes a lot of the UFO tropes, like an exam room, control room, gravity amplifiers, cattle mutilation, etc. But I think it would be really cool to make a series of maps that are more specific and "accurate" to real encounters.
If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them! Thanks!

Betty Andreasson. Incredibly detailed account of the interior of a UFO. That's an understatement.
•
u/UFOsAndGames 15h ago
At first I thought you meant Betty from the famous Betty and Barney Hill case, but I see this is someone different! Thanks for the suggestion! I haven't heard her story but it looks like a good one!
•
u/jasmine-tgirl 14h ago
Betty Hill also gave a description of the interior including a holographic star map.
•
u/thin_wild_duke 13h ago
Didn't she also describe it as being a wall-mounted, pull-down map, like they had in the '50s?
I know someone of that era did.
•
u/UFOsAndGames 12h ago
Yeah I think so! If I could post a picture in the comments I’d show you an illustration I made in my game of that exact scene. :)

UFO magazine did a great special where they followed a alien couple renovating a craft in a Hamptons theme. Beautiful wooden floorboards throughout very light very airy.

"Excuse me, sir, where is the bathroom?"
•
u/UFOsAndGames 20h ago
Haha! I wonder if aliens need to worry about that. If the greys are bio-engineered, maybe not?

I have read that they smell bad(like either ammonia or sulfur) because they digest food and the waste come straight out of their pores. Like, basically, they sweat the waste out.
•
u/UFOsAndGames 20h ago
I knew about the sulfur smell, but I didn’t know it was connected to waste coming out of their pores. That’s even more unsettling.

And they'd have to be immune from pretty much every disease for that to happen, which I guess is possible... But man imagining a world free of disease and illness is too far out there it hurts my brain.

Travis Walton describes it a little bit, but not as detailed as Bob Lazar. If I remember correctly he said it was dark inside and a lot of round/curved features and somewhat cramped. He also described what he interpreted to be a control room with a star field covering the entire room which only became visible once he physically stepped into the room.
•
u/riddle8822 10h ago
There's an incredibly detailed documentary on Prime that visually recreates all his accounts.
•
u/UFOsAndGames 20h ago
Didn't Travis Walton also say the ship landed somewhere... something like an off-world base? And thats where he saw another "human-looking" individual?
•
u/pretendingtobebroke 20h ago
I believe he said he woke up inside what he believed to be a craft surrounded by 3-4 small grays, and shortly after shooing them away he was escorted out by a Nordic-like human-looking being and taken through some kind of hallway to something like a hangar where "he"/it put a mask on him to make him unconscious. I don't remember how he described it specifically so you should double check if the details matter to you.

The 4chan whistleblower's "made to spec" claim makes me think that there is no standard configuration of rooms outside essential flight and nav decks
•
u/UFOsAndGames 20h ago
Oh that's interesting. Like maybe they're just manufactured on the spot for something specific? I'll try to find that 4chan description. Thanks!

u/GrainTamale 20h ago
You, my friend, are in for a treat

u/EnginesofWar 18h ago edited 18h ago
Omg these videos are SO GOOD! The first one especially. Number two is very dreamy and poetic but less concretely informative. Thanks for the links.
now, I have a question: why is it that on some these well edited YouTube videos I see UFO footage that is amazing but isn’t widely circulated? There are only a few convincing videos that always make the rounds on Reddit but if you go on some YouTube videos there are clips I’ve never seen that are super impressive.

Oohh... I like that! Totally by accident, but I think that's a cool connection. Göbeklitepe is such a cool mysterious place, who knows?

u/UFO-CultLeader-UFO 19h ago
Idk, seems like they are almost procedurally generated. They're bigger inside than they appear outside. Betty Hill said something to the effect of hallways and doorways that kept going. Even the 4chan guy is all in nuts & bolts, but i think its more to do with whatever psi weirdness is going on than physical.
•
u/UFOsAndGames 18h ago
Yeah, all the accounts I’ve heard are so dream-like it’s hard to discern what’s actually going on.
•
u/Which-Forever-1873 18h ago
Well from the outside they are the size of a bus. Inside they are the size of a small city.

Watch Bob lazar’s S4 doc that just came out. Personally that has given me the most of what I’ve been looking for from this whole interest. Idk how to say it, fulfilling. The topic has alot of yap with no showy and they did their best to show.

u/UFOsAndGames 20h ago
It would be cool to have different UFO maps for different alien agendas in this game... I suspect, in real-life, the different accounts of crafts must have different specific uses. The Bob Lazar craft seemed so minimalist I can't imagine what it's actual function would be. It doesn't seem like it would be able to accommodate abductions.
Anyhow, if anyone can suggest good stories of UFO interiors, I'd appreciate it! And if you're curious about this game, I made an Instagram video about it! https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dc-bfZ6Ni6T/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&stkn=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==

u/YoureVulnerableNow 12h ago
there must be a distinction made between physical shells and inner space vehicles, and perhaps their hybrid may be different enough to warrant a third category. even the smallest application of conceptual engineering can massively change the apparent nature. search lilliputian effects in firsthand experiences

Take a look here:
http://www.jp-petit.org/ummo/fr/pdf/VolumeFull.pdf
There is some drawing, glyph, etc.
More info:

Of course it is a controversial case (ummo), but a wild ride for sure :) Anyway there is some interior craft drawing. Enjoy!
•
u/UFOsAndGames 19h ago
This is awesome! Thanks!
•
u/Outrageous_Courage97 19h ago
What is interesting about ummo is that has "inspired" JP Petit for his Janus Cosmological model (with some peer-reviewed papers, if I remember right he (discretely) thanked an ummo in one of his paper).

u/UFOsAndGames 19h ago
This looks like it will be a fun deep dive. Thanks for the links! I’ll check it out!
•
u/Outrageous_Courage97 18h ago
Keep in mind that JP Petit isn't a crackpot like some people like to said, just take a look at his publication since 70s. He has known Gronthendieck and was friend with Jean-Marie Souriau (neighbor). He has responded to Damour criticisms of his model, but Damour always refused to engage with him. Fascinating scientist.

I didn’t know there was a UFO in Fallout 3! I’ve played 4 but never 3. I’ll have to go back and check this out now!

Lazar's description is probably the best. The S4 documentary does a great job at illustrating it.
•
u/UFOsAndGames 12h ago
Yeah, I thought that doc was pretty good! I know Lazar has a lot of haters, but I grew up on that lore.
•
u/jasmine-tgirl 14h ago
In one of Timothy Good's books (I forget which) there was the story of a guy who was flying on a craft over the Pacific Ocean and gave a description of the interior.

Wat een onzin. Dit is gewoon een utopische fantasie beschrijving hoe een ‘ufo’ er van binnen uit zou zien. Dezelfde utopische fantasie beschrijvingen staan ook in de ‘bijbel’ van mensen die ‘denken’ een ontmoeting te hebben gehad met ‘god’….
Ook zo’n waanzinnig, door de mens zelf gecreëerd, waanidee….

Is it weird that I think of them as being cosy? Like the cold vastness of space you're in a little space ship tucked up keeping warm. Used to think about this when I was little to help me fall asleep. Thought about those scientists in the arctic living in those little cosy stations too.
•
u/Itchy_Bar7061 5h ago
Absolutely there are. Back many years ago, the DNA extraction process was much more hands on and gentle compared to what they use today. The manipulation was not painful - and with that, the total experience was pleasing for most, especially since they weren’t using the anally inserted electroejacualtor which came to be their gold standard by the 1950s.

No, there's zero credible accounts. How could there be. Unless we get someone to park and record all the dimensions etc. We just don't have any way to checking to see if any accounts are credible.

The Andreasson Affair and The Watchers books are pretty good for first hand stuff. I always enjoyed these books for the regression tales
