Invasion from Space: The Flying Saucers Fly Again — Manly P. Hall — Lecture Papers No. 22

The Manly P. Hall Lecture Papers — First Series

This booklet presents Invasion from Space: The Flying Saucers Fly Again, a lecture by Manly P. Hall dated 1952, prepared from original typed lecture notes attributed to Virginia Pomeroy, Hall’s longtime stenographer.

In this lecture, Hall returns to the flying saucer phenomenon as one of the defining mysteries of the modern age. Rather than treating the subject only as spectacle, fear, or popular fascination, he considers it within a wider philosophical and symbolic framework — asking what reports of aerial visitors, unknown intelligences, and possible forces from beyond the Earth reveal about humanity’s imagination, anxieties, spiritual condition, and relationship to the cosmos.

The subject belongs naturally to Hall’s larger body of work on mystery traditions, unseen worlds, cosmic philosophy, symbolism, and the hidden dimensions of human experience. For readers interested in UFO history, postwar metaphysical culture, esoteric interpretations of space phenomena, and Hall’s reflections on the unknown, this lecture offers a distinctive continuation of his inquiry into flying saucers and the modern imagination.

These lecture notes were preserved outside the ordinary channels of publication and have been carefully prepared by Odd Enough Books / Holographic Pagan Press as part of an ongoing effort to recover and circulate overlooked works from the history of metaphysical and esoteric thought.

This is a handmade 8.5" x 11" archival lecture booklet, assembled with staples and binding tape, featuring new artwork and layout by C.K. Lee.

Issued here as a first Holographic Pagan Press edition.
