In UFO circles, we you mention MIB(Men in Black), you usually get a knowing look and the archetype of a silencer pops in mind of who or what a MIB is regards to the UFO mythos. A dark skinned man or woman who flashes some dubious government badge, and is usually there to pressure the witness or researcher into silence. Other traits of this archetype are cars that are usually out of fashion yet look factory new, and something 'off' about them as if they are learning our culture and habits for the first time. There is something odd, paranormal, or even mechanical about this MIB that alerts a person something is very very wrong.
While this archetype is with us, I believe there must be an evolution to the MIB to become more agile to blend into society, and the end goal would be a much harder time to spot the MIB. The ultimate goal of repression and silence is still there, but the method would be more refined then mere bullying, but rather a subversion of witnesses and work of UFO researchers.
In the remake of the classic science fiction show, Battlestar Galactica, the main crux and problem is that the mechanical antagonists of humanity, the cylons, have now evolved to the point where they are completely impossible to tell if they are human or cylon. Thus the question of what is humanity is posed by the show and the episode arcs. To connect that to the MIB, if they are evolving to the point of blending effortlessly into society, it now more and more difficult to spot them and their sinister agenda.
In regards to the MIB, there is more truth than fiction in this science fiction show.
After the series ended its run, the cast was invited and gave a speech to the united nations. Widely ridiculed and lampooned by the popular press, one can't help draw parallels to then President Ronald Reagan speaking about his 'science fiction fantasy' that aliens were among us, and that this threat would galvanize the human race against such an alien foe.
Perhaps, there is something more being broadcast in science fiction then mere episodes or story arcs of favorite characters. Perhaps a warning against the aliens in our midst.
One of the most enduring legends is of a wild hairy creatures that roams the mountain sides and forests world wide. Some call it the Yeti, the Grey man, or most commonly Bigfoot. Outside of footprints, and some marginal evidence, the only evidence is first hand sightings. No remains of Bigfoot, or of any droppings, has yet to pass rigorous scientific testing. So the basic conflict is there, how can you account for the many sightings of the creature spanning hundreds of years, across the globe, and yet outside of the alleged Patterson film no concrete evidence?
Enter F. W. Holiday's basic idea of the 'phantom menagerie' from his book, the Goblin universe. Holiday believes after studies the loch ness monster, and other alleged creatures that they may be more of a paranormal creation. He believes like Jung, that UFO's are not machines from other worlds, but rather paranormal entities. That the loch ness monster, big foot, and men in black could be paranormal things more akin to medieval demons, and could originate in other dimensions..'winking' into our world at will. Of course, this is only a theory and unless there is some strong collaborating evidence to support Holiday, it still remains outside mainstream scientific thought.
some say men in black are actually otherworldly things
Still, perhaps the Bigfoot has more in common with the boogeyman or ghosts then previously thought. Only with more research can the answer be found.
The Loch Ness monster, or 'Nessie' has become a staple of popular culture, and has been the subject of several hi tech searches of the murky waters to capture or spot the monster. Some say Nessie is a hidden dinosaur, and others say it is a hoax with many delusional people seeing the sea monster. The fact remains, outside of folklore, sighting and shaky photo evidence, nothing concrete is there about Nessie. Could there be a more bizarre and other worldly explanation to the existence of the Loch Ness Monster?
Are dragons a myth or something more otherworldly?
Enter paranormal investor, F.W. Holiday, and his book 'The dragon and the disc' which concludes that the stories of the Loch Ness monster point out to a real creature, yet it was also connected the UFO mythos of sea serpents from other worlds...other dimensions.
connecting the 'orm with UFO and paranormal mythos
He supports the idea that nessie may be a paranormal creature that is associated with magic, and points out that notorious magician Aliester Crowley had a house on the shore of Loch Ness, and he was rumored to summon a dragon worm to the Loch which ended in failure for Crowley, and this failure began to mark the decline of the warlock.
Crowley is rumored to summon a great worm from beyond
Is Nessie lurking in the waters, or is it something connected to the UFO mythos of men in black, aliens, telepathy, and worms from beyond? Only with more research can the answer be found.
When you think of men in black, you automatically think of Will Smith and others fighting alien hordes in a broad comedy. Most reports of the real men in black are anything but comedic or pleasant, and usually involve weird men in black flashing nebulous government ids and driving brand new model cars completely in black to put pressure on any UFO witnesses. There are numerous examples of men in black intimidation, but I'll focus on one incident involving the infamous mothman sightings of point pleasant.

In the mid to late sixities in the sleepy town of point pleasant, sightings of an enormous creature with piercing red eyes were coming in at a frantic rate, the press dubbed the creature 'the mothman'. Quickly adding to the hysteria were the arrival of the mysterious men in black. Mary Hyre, reporter for the nearby The Athens Messenger had done several stories about the mysterious mothman and its connection with old abandoned TNT munitions plant outside of point pleasant.
Soon she reported she was followed by dark automobiles, and was paid a visit by mysterious men in black who pressured her to drop her work with the mothman. Mary refused to be intimitaded by her visitors and they left. Soon after, Mary had passed away of a heart ailment, even though she had no history of heart problems.
Was Mary silenced by the men in black? Mary's close friend, paranormal writer John Keel, hinted that Mary had hit upon some fantastic connection with the mothman, and was silenced by the sinister men in black. Adding fuel to the mystery was complete disappearance of the mothman creature from point pleasant. Just what was the supposed creature is now guesswork of history, and Mary's 'explosive' story was snuffed out just like the woman who perhaps got too close to the truth.
