Marden recounts that Denise Stoner feels a heavy fog descend over her mind before an encounter. Her thoughts slow, and she senses herself slipping inward, as though being guided into a dream. The environmental details blur.
She notes hearing faint tones and feeling a pull toward stillness. This foglike transition operates like the onset of a lucid dream where control weakens while awareness heightens.
Marden presents this as a psychological precursor to abduction experiences, reminiscent of altered-state dream initiation.
