In 1964, Donald Shrum went bowhunting in the Tahoe National Forest… and came back with a story no one could believe.

In this episode of Mostly True Alien Stories, hosts Neal Girandola and Andrew Triana break down the jaw-dropping case of the Cisco Grove Encounter — where Shrum claims he was stalked by two alien beings and a humanoid robot, forcing him to spend the entire night in a tree, fighting for his life.

We explore the bizarre details of the encounter, from paralyzing gas to strange glowing eyes, and the robot that appeared out of the mist. Did Shrum really survive an off-world confrontation? Or was this the result of psychological trauma… or something else?

We weigh the facts, the aftermath, and whether this story belongs in the history of alien contact… or close encounters of a very human kind.

Was Donald Shrum’s terrifying forest encounter mostly true?
