Guarapiranga Close Encounter Case

The Guarapiranga close encounter case is one of the most controversial and disturbing files in Brazilian UFO lore. Usually described as a 1988 body-recovery case near the Guarapiranga Reservoir in São Paulo, it later became famous through claims of precision mutilation and alien involvement, even as subsequent investigators argued the case had been misreported, mislocated, and sensationalized.
