In 1984, a remote viewer was asked to describe a hidden target using only a set of coordinates. He reported pyramidal structures, underground shelters, and tall figures trying to survive a planetary disaster—before the sealed envelope revealed the target: Mars, approximately one million years B.C.

Tonight, we open the declassified transcript, examine how government remote viewing worked, and ask what the viewer may have actually encountered.

Before Freddy Krueger ever appeared on a movie screen, there was a young man who told his family that something was chasing him in his dreams.

He believed that if he fell asleep, it would kill him.

Whether it is happening more often or social media is simply making it more visible, stories keep appearing from people who say reality suddenly opened up.

They describe waking up, seeing beyond the illusion or gaining access to something hidden beneath ordinary life.

Some call it a spiritual awakening.
