What was said

"The message was you must not commit suicide. If you do that, we will capture your soul and confine it forever. Forever. It was the scariest thing I ever heard in my life. And then they proceeded to demonstrate this by removing me from my body."

Strieber recounts an alleged encounter in which non-human entities warned him not to commit suicide, claiming they could capture and confine his soul permanently. He says the warning was followed by a demonstration in which he felt removed from his body and trapped in a “little white container”.
