"Ufo" "Abductions" seems to be a typical US folklore where
Extraterrestrial Intelligences have replaced Devils and succubus or
incubus from traditional Demonology.

"Devils" were a normal part of old folklore
while "abductions" is the New folklore.

"Abductions" seems,essentially,a north-american folklore...
based on some books and some hollywoodian movies.

you mention!

When you are bored a new folklore can be stimulating,indeed!!!
