This collection showcases photographs of unidentified aerial phenomena, meticulously gathered by Rev. Francis Kalbfleisch (b. 1910), a Presbyterian minister. Kalbfleisch was not only a clergyman but also the founder of Ithlon of Inithlon, a secretive UFO religion established in 1948. This enigmatic group, known for congregating once every six years, spanned a 43-year history marked by intrigue and mystery.
Ithlon of Inithlon diligently maintained a monthly journal, Incalithlon, and fostered a vibrant exchange of correspondence among its members. Remarkably, their collective insights appeared to foresee several major global events. Among these were the cloning of Dolly the sheep, the formation of the European Union, the tragic events of September 11, 2001, and even the invention of the iPhone.
The group’s enigmatic aura deepened when Kalbfleisch mysteriously disappeared in 1991. The disappearance occurred under ordinary circumstances while he was dining at home with his wife, leaving behind a legacy shrouded in mystery and speculation.
