Introduction
The world around us is not as it appears to be. In fact, far from it. As we go about our daily business, working and living our lives, something dark and dangerous is taking place behind the scenes, and it has been going on since the dawn of civilization. Most people remain oblivious to the truth and dont even realize it. Now and again, however, someone will stumble upon the startling reality that potentially affects and dictates the lives of just about all of us.
What am I talking about?
Nothing less than a monstrous collection of supernatural entities that terrify and torment us, and have done so for millennia. They do far more than that, however. They feed upon us. Like bloated, paranormal leeches, they suck us dry as they seek to fuel themselves with our psychic energy, high states of emotion, sexual energy, and human life force.
They hate and despise us, but, paradoxically, they cannot live without us.
Extensive data exists that strongly suggests that the human soul, essence, or life force is something that all of these entitiesthe vast majority of which exist in states of pure energy, but can take on just about any form they chooseneed to survive. Have you ever woken up, drained and utterly exhausted, from a terrifying nightmare that didnt seem like just another regular dream? If the answer is yes, you may have been fed upon by these infernal things. When we sleep, we are at our most vulnerable. And thats exactly how they want us. A dream is not always a dream, as strange as that might sound. Sometimes its an indication that, as you sleep, and as your guard is down, these voraciously hungry monsters are, in essence, eating you.
Among these creatures are the Shadow People: hostile things that typically manifest between 1:00 and 4:00 a.m., and who have the ability to paralyze us and drain our bodies of energy in much the same way that the vampires of folklore would drain people of blood. In fact, as this book shows, such distorted tales of vampirism almost certainly had their origins in the worlds and actions of these multi-dimensional things.
Equally dangerous are what can accurately be termed supernatural seducers : dangerous entities that thrive on sexual energyfor example, orgone energy, as theorized and documented by Wilhelm Reich. A highly charged, sexual dream may be deliberately initiated by such things, which, over the centuries, have been referred to as incubus, succubus, Lilith, and the Old Hag. This may also be why so many supernatural encounters occur at so-called Lovers Lane locations. In these cases, voyeurism and sexual emotion lead to feeding.
Poltergeistsviolent entities that can cause chaos in the home and delight in tormenting us as much as they are energized by usare also part of the equation, as are thought-forms and tulpas. These are creatures created within the human mind and the depths of our imaginations that can be externalized and given a strange form of life in the real world. Key to the survival of tulpas and thought-forms is that we believe in them. The stronger our belief, the greater the ability of the tulpas to survive. In other words, they feed onand coldly and carefully nurtureour belief systems.
For example, there is the Slenderman, a sinister figure that started out as an internet experiment, but has mutated drastically in the last few years, to the extent that numerous people report having seen the Slenderman in the real world. Its a perfect example of a modern-day tulpa or thought-form running wild in our reality. Witnesses describe seeing the scrawny, black-suited figure looming over their beds in the dead of night, extracting energy and dining in a fashion that would have chilled even the likes of H. P. Lovecraft and Edgar Allan Poe.
The Men in Black (MIB) fall into this category, too. Those who have had UFO encounters and have been visited by the pale-faced ghouls known as MIB state that while being threatened and intimidated by the MIB they have felt cold, clammy, weak, and lightheaded. As many of the unfortunate witnesses have stated, its as if the MIB are draining them in the same way that a flashlight drains a battery. And, using the same analogy, when the light finally goes out, we do too.
Now, its time to take an in-depth look at all of the above entitiesand various other supernatural creaturesthat see us as nourishment and nothing else. The list includes hungry ghosts; the extraterrestrial Greys of ufology; terrifying reptilian creatures that are also a part of UFO lore; the monsters that inspired Bram Stoker to write his classic; gothic novel, Dracula ; and supernatural cats thataccording to ancient loresteal our breath as we sleep.
The stark and terrifying truth is that the earth is one big farm. And for these energy-based entities we are the cattle.

Supernatural Energy
Before we get to the issue of what types of supernatural entities are using us as a source of food, its first very important to understand the nature of the kinds of energies that are being reaped from us on a massive, nearly never-ending scale. Yes, some such entities feed on us in the conventional senseby literally killing and eating us, as you will later see. The majority, however, do so in a stealthy, camouflaged fashion, essentially so that we dont get a full understanding of what is afoot in our world.
Well begin with the phenomenon of prana. Satyananda Saraswati, born in India in 1923, was a teacher of yoga and the author of dozens of books, including Kundalini Tantra , Yoga Nidra , and Sure Ways to Self-Realization . And, as a swami, he was a teacher of Hinduism. Saraswati, who died in 2009, said the following about prana in 1981, which is reproduced in an online article titled Prana: the Universal Life Force:
