Ella LeBain
Ella LeBain is an American biblical scholar, ET experiencer, and UFO researcher, and the author of the six-volume nonfiction series Who's Who in the Cosmic Zoo: A Guide to ETs, Aliens, Exoplanets, and Space Controversies. Her work draws on ancient astronaut research, linguistics, Kabbalah, and end-times prophecy to argue that many figures described in the Bible and Sumerian texts are extraterrestrial or interdimensional entities, and that the biblical Gog and Magog war is an unfolding extraterrestrial conflict centered on ancient space portals in Israel.
Biography
The first contact experience occurred at age two, when she was, by her account, abducted from her crib, an event recalled through childhood nosebleeds and a small implant lodged in her right nostril. Ongoing contacts occurred with Grey entities and what she identifies as "little blue men," as well as later encounters with taller, human-appearing beings she associates with her husband's extraterrestrial lineage. The abductions continued until approximately 1999, ending after a series of spiritual legal procedures in which she consciously renounced prior agreements with the entities involved.
In 1979, while living at a biological research center in the Negev desert of Israel, an encounter occurred in broad daylight with a luminous being who identified himself as the Messiah. This being is identified as Yeshua (Jesus), subsequently experienced in visions and ongoing communications, and credited as co-author of the book series. A near-death experience in February 2010, following cardiac arrest, produced a complete healing from her abduction-related physical injuries, including the disappearance of the nostril implant and remission of longstanding allergies.
In a separate December 2023 news roundup, Michael Salla described LeBain as "a long time contact and researcher" who had compiled "an incredible amount of data about the extraterrestrial phenomenon" across her six-volume series, and who presented the Israel-Palestine conflict as a fulfillment of the Gog and Magog prophecy involving two competing extraterrestrial factions operating through geopolitical proxies.
LeBain was raised Jewish — her father was an Orthodox Jew and her mother Italian Catholic — and was educated in Israel, where she attended Hebrew school and studied under teachers in the Negev. Her professional background is as a paralegal. She has also studied under Zecharia Sitchin and attended sessions with psychic Phyllis Schlemmer.
Disclosure and public activities
Research themes
The Bible, particularly the Old Testament, is a continuation of Anaki cuneiform literature from Sumer, and its cast of divine characters consists of competing extraterrestrial factions rather than manifestations of a single deity. Detailed treatment of LeBain's testimony on these subjects appears in the respective articles:
- Elohim: The Hebrew plural form, argued to refer to multiple competing extraterrestrial beings rather than a single deity
- Enlil: Traces a linguistic chain from Enlil through El to Allah, each the same blood-demanding extraterrestrial entity in successive cultural reframings
- City of Jerusalem mothership: Interprets the New Jerusalem of Revelation 21 as a twelve-leveled extraterrestrial mothership connected to Atlantis, arriving at the end of the Gog-Magog war
- Gog and Magog war: Interprets the Ezekiel 38 prophecy as an extraterrestrial conflict between two competing factions operating through geopolitical proxies, centered on ancient space portals in Israel
- Nibiru/Nabu: Identifies the Nemesis binary star system's companion planet as the astronomical mechanism triggering the sixth seal of Revelation
- Reincarnation in Judaism: Argues reincarnation was embedded in ancient Judaism and suppressed by the Church of Rome as a social control mechanism
Published works
LeBain's primary work is the nonfiction series Who's Who in the Cosmic Zoo: A Guide to ETs, Aliens, Exoplanets, and Space Controversies, spanning six volumes covering ET origins of humanity, the identity of biblical gods, lost tribes of Israel, and end-times prophecy. Her website is whoswhointhcosmiczoo.com. The series covers topics across her research including ancient alien history, nephilim genetics, Atlantis, and the council of gods described in biblical texts.
The Exopolitics Today interview with Salla is also available in video form on YouTube, where LeBain's description of her abduction history, biblical research, and the Gog and Magog conflict is presented at length.
