Peeping alien on your TV? Stan Romanek’s “Boo Video” coming to ABC next week

In this week’s cover story, I examined the case of Stan Romanek, the Denver dude who claims he videotaped a big-eyed gray alien peeking through his window.

Until now, that video has only been made publicly available at UFO conventions, but it might finally show up in your homes next week. Romanek has posted on his Twitter feed that he will be featured on ABC’s 20/20 on Tuesday, August 18.

His publicist told me two weeks ago that the so-called “Boo video” had not before been broadcast anywhere because — among other things — Romanek had signed the initial broadcast rights to ABC.

Few people have seen the Boo video, but many have seen the parodies of it have popped up on YouTube since Romanek first announced its existence last summer. While this one is called “the REAL romanek” video, it isn’t. Still, it’s not far off what the man himself showed at Kansas City’s Mysteries of the Universe conference last month.

Last June, our friends at Denver’s Westword paper put together this amusing list of the best parodies.

After the jump, a “fallow-up” on all those online eyewitnesses and supporters of Romanek’s who all coincidentally mis-spell the word “follow” the same way he does!
