Edgar Cayce was born in 1877 in Hopkinsville, Kentucky, an area later famous for the Kelly-Hopkinsville goblin case. As a child, Cayce reported seeing "little people" and fairy beings, and began communicating with his deceased grandfather at age seven. These claims led to Cayce being bullied and ostracized by his peers during his early school years.

At age 12, Edgar Cayce demonstrated a purported ability to memorize books word-for-word by sleeping on them. Dr. Little suggests this was likely an eidetic or photographic memory triggered by Cayce leafing through the pages before sleep. In one notable public demonstration, Cayce recited a 175-page speech by a U.S. ambassador perfectly after only hearing it twice.

In 1955, the Sutton family in Hopkinsville reported being besieged by small, metallic-sounding goblin creatures following a UFO sighting. This event is credited with originating the term "little green men" and was officially investigated by CIA-contracted magician John Mulholland. The creatures are theorized to have retreated into the Mammoth Cave system, where similar sightings persist.

Permaculture mapping techniques, specifically the concept of zones zero through five, are applied to the study of paranormal encounters. Extraordinary experiences, such as the Kelly-Hopkinsville goblin encounter, often occur in "wilderness corridors" where the domesticated garden merges into the wild. These edge habitats serve as the primary site for manifestations of the uncontrollable and the strange.
