People can purchase insurance for all kinds of things. That said, this is pretty wild.

The folks at Geico have pointed out that there's actually such thing as Alien Abduction Insurance. It's true!

"A London-based firm has sold more than 30,000 alien abduction insurance policies throughout Europe," Geico says. "Of course, you’ll need to provide proof of the occurrence to file a claim. If you’re a believer, a little green could save you from the little green men."

You can also get insurance against werewolves, vampires and ghosts. Oh, my! The Royal Falcon Hotel in Lowestoft, England, according to Geico, "insured its staff and customers against death and disability caused by ghosts, poltergeists and other abnormal phenomena."
