In 1995, filmmaker and magician Spyros Melaris created an illusion of global significance. His mission was to create something so unusual, so disturbing that it would rock the world. “The Alien Autopsy” was not just a hoax. It challenged belief systems. It asked, “Do aliens exist, and are they visiting our planet?”

The film fooled NASA, Kodak and many experts, including leading pathologists in the US, here in the UK and all over the world. It maintained its integrity for 15 years until Melaris and his crew revealed the truth.

Spyros Melaris has prepared slides, film and inside secrets and tonight will answer all questions, shining a light on just how he and his team created the greatest hoax of all time.
