Intruders: The Incredible Visitations at Copley Woods

Hopkins built out the abduction thesis around 'Kathie Davis' of Indianapolis, presenting a years-long pattern of encounters that he interpreted as evidence of an alien breeding program harvesting human reproductive material to create hybrid offspring. It spent four weeks on the New York Times bestseller list and was adapted into a 1992 CBS miniseries.
