UFO Encounters: Lights in the Valley -- Taking Notes -- Flaming Craft -- On the Road


The following narratives were forwarded to me several years ago:

LIGHTS IN THE VALLEY

In 1982, I was 12 years old. One evening that winter, near the holidays, my mother woke me up from a deep sleep at 2am. She was freaking out, and wanted me to verify that she wasn't crazy.

Our home in Vermont is located high on the East side of the Winooski River Valley. From my bedroom window, there is a beautiful 20 mile view across the valley towards Camel's Hump. About 8 miles away down in that river valley there is a hydro-power dam. At the time it was under construction and there was a large crane at the site. During the holidays they hung a array of lights on the crane tower to look like a Christmas tree. We could see that from our house.

So, what had my mother so scared? There was a light hovering over the dam, and it was changing colors. Red, blue, green, white, red again. It was moving back and forth ever so slowly, and occasionally would "bounce" up and down. I was an aircraft freak even at that age and mom wanted to know if I knew what it was. I didn't. From our vantage point, it was impossible to tell if it was something moving on the mountain side beyond the river or if it was between us and the far side of the valley, but it sure looked like it was moving over the lights on the crane.

My mother called the BTV airport and asked them if anyone else was calling in about this mysterious light in the valley. Of course, they pretty much thought she was a crazy lady and said that nothing was amiss. They did, however, give her the number to our nearest military installation, Plattsburgh Air Base (closed in 1992). So, at my behest, she called them and told the same story. You guessed it - same result. "You're crazy lady!".

It was a crystal clear night, so we returned to the window to watch this object some more. Within five minutes something unexpected happened.

From the opposite side of the valley several aircraft popped up over the ridge in formation and headed down the valley. We could see their collision lights with the familiar red, green and white strobes. I figured military, of course, but wondered about the response time. Plattsburgh is at least 50 miles away by air, so it is possible they could cover that distance under full military power if they had been on the ready line when we called...or, had they already been on the way?

The jets got to within two miles or so of the mysterious object when it suddenly brightened, turned white, and went straight up. Fast. It disappeared into the night sky effortlessly. We continued to watch for several more minutes as the jets did a few orbits, then returned the way they came. With that, we called it a night.

Others in my high school saw the event or heard the jets, but we never saw anything in the news. I'll probably never know, but it definitely helped form the opinions I have today about our visitors from other worlds. GM

NOTE: this location has a history of strange and unexplained lights...Lon

TAKING NOTES

I have been abducted by aliens. The last time I remember clearly was in 1979.

I was abducted with a large group of people on one occasion. It seemed they were studying human social interaction. The reason I say this is because I recognized an old boyfriend. He was married by then and the aliens suggested I go over and talk to him. I said I wouldn't because he was now married. They seemed very confused. If I still had strong feelings for him, why wouldn't I do this? His wife died since then (now ten years) and we have talked on the phone and send e-mails to each other, almost 25 years after we broke up.

Back in 1976, I met a family who said an alien lived in their house but was invisible. To prove it, the husband said he would ask the alien to put on a show for us that night. We all saw 5 craft fly over and one hovered over the cornfield after it got dark. They even flashed their lights when we waved. I know it sounds crazy, but I am at a point in my life where I know what I saw and don't care if anyone believes me or not. This family also told me that the government came to their home once a month to pickup notes the family kept. This all took place in Lansing, Michigan.

FLAMING CRAFT

In 1994, something happened to me that would change my life. I witnessed a UFO for the first time.

At that time, I had been working as a special security officer. I was in my car on my way back home from work late one night. I was in the south of Sweden.

After I had driven a few miles, something suddenly started to glow on my left side. It was about 150 meters long 40-50 meters wide (it was huge!) and just looked like it was on fire. It looked like it was going down over a ridge, but change direction twice. Then it looked like it was going down again, so I tried to follow it with my car. But when I came around the ridge, I had to stop because there were 2 horses standing in the middle of the road....it seemed like they were hypnotized.

After banging the horn for about 2 min, I got out of the car and could not move them. I pulled and push each one but they still stood there looking at me. I looked toward the glowing object but it was gone by that time.

I turned my car around and went home.

I know what I saw...I'm not crazy. Through the flames was a metallic body. I will never forget that. I even called the Swedish Air Force and asked them if something went down that night, but they stated nothing was reported.

I know that what I saw was NOT from this earth. Name Withheld

ON THE ROAD

I had a trip every Tuesday night that started at midnight. The truck was a small and loaded with lots of sausage product, but carried a big payload (about the size of a standard pickup truck but a lot wider). I’d leave here around midnight and if making good time I’d stop at a truck stop for breakfast, unload my truck and then “back track” on my way back to deliver to any stores that was “short” on product.

That night was a very clear and warm night. I had the radio on but don’t recall the station. It was probably at least around 3:00 a.m. or later. Nothing remarkable but at some time the radio was acting strange. Would seem to have lots of static; then nothing; then clear as a bell. That probably happened for about 5 minutes or so and as I was looking around I noticed something out the right side window.

As I said, it was not something you could clearly see, but it was like a saucer with lights on the outside. I don’t want to dramatize this but I think the fact that the object didn’t streak across the sky brought its attention to me. It sort of hovered along side of me but some distance away. When you see a plane at night you see the port and starboard lights (one on the tail, one on bottom and one on top-normally red, and strobes on the wing tips). Back then I don’t know that there was any where near that kind of marking on aircraft so white lights would not have been a concern.

All I knew was that it did not look like a traditional plane nor did it act like a traditional aircraft. It was like a cigar (saucer) shaped based on the lights. Nothing on top or bottom to define height. It seemed to spin but not fast but that may just have been the motion because the movement of the lights was not fast. Hard to explain. I don’t recall that it made any noise, just seemed to hover while along side and then disappeared.

Obviously, I had to concentrate on the road so I don’t know what direction it went but it was quick. The lights just went off and it was gone. Since I didn’t stare at it, I can’t tell you how long between glances. At the time I figured we had some experimental stuff that we weren’t supposed to know about (and that may still be the truth) but it was strange. Not at all scary, but not something one expects to see. Bill M.

Strange thing walked out of woods,I followed it and it just vanished.

I was sitting in my driveway looking up at the stars and I heard something come out of the woods at the end of my street. There is a creek at the end of my street so I was wondering how they came out of there.

This thing started walking up my street and it was walking very weird and was wearing black robes and a weird hat with a point and a curve and had feathers on it.

So I hid behind my car waiting until it walked near my house. Note: it was walking the same pace the whole time. And I said "hey what are you doing" and they didn't say anything back and kept on walking at the same pace up the street.

So I started following them and at the other end of my street are more woods. I was right behind this thing! The thing got to someones yard and I was 5 feet behind it and started walking into the woods.

I turned the flashlight on my phone real fast; within 2 seconds. I didn't stop walking when I was turning it on.

When I looked up with my flashlight, i! t was gone... It just vanished into thin air. Nothing! I looked all over with my flashlight, there was nothing. I just don't know. I want and explanation and I want it soon.

I do not want to live in fear know what I saw. I just remember every dog barking at it and it did not even flinch.

Just someone explain this. NUFORC

11-Year-Old’s Psychic Feeling Helps Save Her Family From Fire

She had a feeling she could not shake. Maria Elias’s premonition probably saved her and other family members. Before she went to sleep on Saturday night, 11-year-old Maria felt as if something was going to happen.

Around 1:30 a.m. on Sunday morning, a fire spread through the Elias’s California residence. Maria acted fast and corralled her two younger brothers and sister our of their home. It appears the fire started because of an electrical short. Corey Wilford of the Kern County Fire Department stated, that ”a person who was sleeping in the home heard a loud pop and smelled smoke, then saw fire erupt on the wall.” The fire caused an estimated $85,000 in damage.

The United States Fire Administration recommends that residents take precautions in order to practice fire safety. Here are some tips to consider: 1) all homes should have at least one working fire alarm; 2) never overload circuits; 3) do not overuse appliances. If you detect a smell or smoke, disconnect the appliance from the outlet; 4) plan your escape route in case there is a fire; and 5) educate your children about the dangers of matches and lighters.

Was it a feeling that saved Maria Elias and her family? No one will ever know the answer to this question. What we do know is an 11-year-old acted in a quick and smart manner in order to save her brothers and sisters from the fire. - Parent Society

Strange Sounds in British Columbia

Some people in Terrace, B.C., say they were awoken Thursday morning by some strange, whining and grinding noises echoing off nearby hills for several minutes, prompting a wide range of speculation online about the source.

At least three different people recorded the phenomenon, including Kimberley Wookey, who posted a video on YouTube.

Terrace, B.C.Terrace, B.C.
Mandi Campbell described hearing the loud sounds rolling through the hills around the city

"It seemed to be coming from the sky or underground, something so loud though. And I believe it was heard in Hazelton, which is close to here, and as far as the Nass," said Campbell.

Initial speculation about the source of the sounds included last year's earthquake that struck northwestern B.C., or perhaps the 7.0 magnitude quake that struck off the Aleutian Islands on Friday morning.

But Honn Kao of the Geological Survey of Canada said the noise is not related to any seismic activity in the region.

Other popular theories included electromagnetic activity or a just a train, but residents insisted the noises aren't from the nearby train tracks.

Reports of strange sounds all around the world lit up the internet in 2011 as well, when they were dubbed "sky trumpets" by some.

On Friday afternoon city spokesperson Alisa Thompson said she had a simpler explanation — it was a city worker grinding down the blade on a grader.

"The grader blade needed to be straightened. Kind of gets ground down, and it makes a very strange noise. It's as simple as that," said Thompson.

"The video, the YouTube video, is actually right around the corner from the arena, and that's where our employee was doing the straightening."

Thompson said the city will try to replicate the sound and prove it was the grader this afternoon, although she admits she likes the more creative explanations better.

"Like some kind of epic battle between a Kermode, and UFO, with sasquatch and maybe a whale thrown in there. That would be great for local tourism." - CBC

Security guard in Turkey photographs UFO

A security guard at a “technopark” in the town of Gebze in the Kocaeli province of Turkey says he saw a flying saucer and was able to capture it on camera with his cell phone before it disappeared.

The security guard, Ahmet Özcan, says he heard dogs barking and went outside. He told Haber Turk (translated by Google), “I went out to the sound of 0500 ranks of the dog’s bark. I saw an object resembling a flying saucer. Photographed on a cell phone. I lift my head to take the second one was gone.”

Haber Turk says a representative from the Sirius UFO Space Sciences Research Center in Turkey says they have taken an interest in the photograph and intend to research it further.

Taunt Reptilians At Your Own Risk


The following narrative is a submission by Matt R.:

On 8/24/13, I appeared on the Daniel Ott Radio Show. I discussed the history of my reptilian abductions, along with the experiences of the others involved in my mass abduction in 2005. I also spoke about several other cases, and their parallels to my own encounters.

In the last 10 mins of the show, the host cracked a joke about killing reptilians. What can only be described as an inhuman growl jumped into our conversation immediately after. Apparently, whatever reptilian was on the line wanted to voice their displeasure with his joke. During this conversation, I was sitting inside a parked car with the engine off. I was talking on my Skype app, over my phone's 4G connection. There was no other radio or computer anywhere near me. I can't think of anything that could have produced a growling noise that vivid. That certainly didn't sound like line interference. There are no audio files or ring tones on my Samsung S3 that sound like that. There was a deep guttural quality to it, which made it similar to what I've heard from reptilians before. Mr Ott does not have a history of pranking people on his program. And, I know there is no possible explanation for generation of that noise on my end.

There is a direct link to the mp3 excerpt with the growl, which is just below an mp3 of the full show.

http://www.theedgeam.com/

http://www.theedgeam.com/interviews/Matt_R_08.24.13.mp3

http://www.theedgeam.com/interviews/recaps/GROWL.mp3

This growl sounds quite similar to some of the ones heard on the recordings made during the reptilian encounters at David Eckhart household http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjIDrMZfPPY & http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNPMxkM0pF4. They too have that deep, gurgling, and emotive quality to them. The last time I spoke to David, he related an interesting anecdote about reptilians and telephones. This was during a fully conscious encounter, where a couple of reptilians surrounded him while he was working on some business paperwork at a desk in his home. A reptilian examined his new smartphone and said something to the effect of “You know we can break into this one too, right?”. Apparently, they thought he had replaced phones to try and circumvent their hacking attempts. The truth was, he had just decided to upgrade to a new phone. Mr. Eckhart also once saw a female reptilian quickly disassemble, and reassemble their home phone handset. During the process, she inserted a small device in the phone. The speed and skill with which she did so suggests she was experienced with tapping. I have had numerous phone hacking incidents, as I have discussed in previous articles on this site http://naturalplane.blogspot.com/2012/02/update-abductee-exposes-reptilian.html http://www.phantomsandmonsters.com/2012/11/the-katrina-abductions-new-revelations.html.

Being something of a feudalistic warrior culture, the reptilians have an acute sensitivity to perceived insults and threats. As many reptilian abductees have discovered, they can disproportionately react when verbally antagonized. This is is particularly true if the origin of the threatening gesture or statement is a male human. The best policy for interacting with reptilians is to use the same practice you would use speaking to a known 1% biker club member, who is wearing his logo. You have virtually no margin of safety to disrespect them. Now, this does not seem to apply to reptilians acting in a scientist or doctor role. They do not tend to overreact to perceived insults. However, the majority of encountered reptilians fall into some spectrum of what would be called a "warrior culture". That outburst on the line certainly sounded emotionally driven. It occurred less than one second after Daniel Ott's joke. This exemplifies how quickly reptilians are able to mentally process, and involuntarily react to a threat. The reptilians have a fundamentally different neurological composition, which lets them react faster than a human would. I cover this in a previous article : http://www.phantomsandmonsters.com/2013/03/here-be-dragons-new-katrina-abductions.html

Daily 2 Cents: 'My Dad Fired at the Devil' -- Indian State Bans 'Black Magic' -- Ghost Of Bank Robber Seen


'My Dad Fired at the Devil'

There has always been a little on going joke within my family about the time my Dad stood a few yards away from the Devil and shot at him. It's always been one of these little jokes that get mentioned once in a blue moon. I can remember as a kid if I was ill or hurt etc he'd mention it The point is I never really got a good explanation for it except that off the cuff remarks about it. I've never believed in anything paranormal, I like ghost films etc. But I've never really bought into the whole idea.

Anyway a few years ago the whole family and friends where over celebrating New Year. As the party was dying down, for some reason or another it got to people telling paranormal experiences in life. It was the first time I really heard the full story about the Devil incident.

This happened back in 1982, I was only a baby back then so I've no memory of it. We live in a small town in Scotland called Blackburn which is famous/infamous now for Susan Boyle. Anyway back then my parents were not long married and had their first home, a little bottom floor flat in a street called Rowan Street, it's a dump now and I bet it was a dump back then.

So the story goes that my Dad was working late one night, it was just me and my mother in the flat, my Dad comes home late in the evening eats his dinner and then our dog starts going nuts barking at the kitchen door, real aggressive frantic barking at something outside. This was strange for our dog Sinbad as he was one of those Dogs that just never barked and was a good natured Dog. He died when I was nine so I've a good memory of his characteristics. So the fear was that there was a intruder in the back garden my dad reasoned. So he quickly ran into his bedroom and got out his 2.2 air rifle, hey it's Scotland not America.

So he ran back into the Kitchen, the Dog still going nuts barking and scratching at the door. Air Rifle over the shoulder and a torch in hand he opened the door to the Garden. The Dog ran down the steps, stopping at the pavement, still going nuts. My Dad stepped down too, scanning the area, seeing nothing. Until he looked where the dog was barking at. What he described to me is the stuff of nightmares.

He looked across the garden and what he saw he described as a black moving form of mist like floating smoke, blacker than the blackest black with glowing red eyes moving from left to right across the garden. Raising his torch to it only illuminated it against the night and made it's features stand out more, a smoky black form, those red eyes burning. So he went into Soldier mode, he was in the Territorial Army back then. He raised his rifle and began firing at it. I still find the idea of shooting at this thing with air rifle pellets funny, but God had that been me I'd have been running in the opposite direction.

It was around that time telling the story that my mother chimed in mentioning that she too had witnessed this thing from the kitchen window and she too watched it pass into through the brick wall separating the gardens. I had always assumed it was only my dad that saw this thing, but I got the impression that neither of them where really keen to dwell upon those memories. The logic was that way back in 82 the upstairs neighbour was a guy known to be into weird stuff like Ouija boards and the like. So naturally the think there was a connection. I know they moved away from there not to long after and in my job now as a postman I've been to that block of flats and saw the garden. Also the morning after the event my dad checked back fence and found no pellet marks so he shot and hit the devil, or a rather large cat. - reddit.com/r/Paranormal

Indian State Maharashtra Bans 'Black Magic'

Maharashtra heralds a progressive new era with a comprehensive law banning black magic, witchcraft and other superstitious practices coming into effect, officials said Sunday.

Governor K. Sankaranarayanan signed an Ordinance Saturday evening which will curb all these practices, and award stringent punishment for practitioners. Maharashtra is the first state in the country to enact such a law.

The state government is likely to notify the law, which stipulates a maximum sentence of up to seven years in jail for various practices, by Monday.

The move comes five days after the killing of rationalist Narendra Dabholkar, the founder-head of the Maharashtra Andhashraddha Nirmoolan Samiti (MANS), which was at the forefront of the movement against these blind and often harmful practices.

Among other things, the new law will ban inhuman practices, human sacrifice, rituals to enable sex selection by pregnant women, and all forms of acts known as 'Jaadu-Tona' in common parlance.

The governor signed the Ordinance after it was drafted and cleared by the state cabinet last Wednesday, a day after Dabholkar's killing in Pune sparked outrage and protests across the state.

The Ordinance has replaced the draft "Maharashtra Prevention and Eradication of Human Sacrifice and Other Inhuman, Evil and Aghori Practices and Black Magic Bill" 2011, known simply as the 'anti-Black Magic Bill," pending before the legislature.

Under severe pressure for delaying the long-pending legislation aimed at ridding the society of the evils of such practices, the state government adopted the Ordinance route instead of waiting for the next session of legislature in Nagpur, in December.

Dabholkar, 67, was shot dead by unidentified gunmen Aug 20 while on a morning walk in Pune. - New Indian Express

Silent Rattlesnake

It may be terrifying to hear a rattlesnake's signature sound—but, hey, at least it's giving you a heads-up. Now, hikers in South Dakota's Black Hills have to keep their eyes peeled for rattlesnakes that can't rattle, NPR reports. These snakes have curled tails like pigs thanks to what seem to be atrophied muscles, says an expert. It may be a genetic defect.

"Defect" or not, it's probably helping the snakes: Those that do rattle are likely to get spotted and killed, so the non-rattlers have built-in protection that they may be passing on to their descendants. On the other hand, it could just be that certain snakes have had their tails broken "during failed predation attempts," says a researcher. Either way, it seems hikers may need more than just their ears to avoid them. - Newser

Ghost Of Bank Robber Seen At Intersection

Do you believe in ghosts?

Many people do and say they’ve seen the man who robbed a Wells Fargo Bank and killed himself when he was cornered by police.

A paranormal investigator says he’s been contacted by two people in East Memphis where the bank robber died.

Those who’ve apparently seen this ghost have seen it at the exact spot where the bank robber ended his life.

“I haven’t been looking but I will probably see it now that it is in my head,” said Lori McCaghren, who lives on Walnut Grove.

From her front door, McCaghren has the perfect view of the corner of Walnut Grove and Perkins. She has yet to see the ghost

“I mean, what time of day?” she asked.

“A shadowy figure that you can see through,” said Mike Einspanjer, the owner of Memphis Paranormal Investigations and grief counselor.

Einspanjer says he’s had two people contact him, a man and woman, about seeing Marvin Amerson at night, back from the dead.

Amerison killed himself July 23rd after robbing a Wells Fargo Bank on Poplar.

He took police on a chase and then crashed his van.

Instead of surrendering, Amerson ended his life.

Einspanjer says suicides often produce ghosts.

“This wasn’t a planned event,” said Einspanjer. “He did it in the spur of the moment and that’s a lot to deal with and it takes time.”

Amerson also left behind a wife and a son, “So that’s a lot of pain and a lot of grief that he has to work through.”

“I have a perfect view and I look out all the time,” said McCaghren.

Those we spoke with live near the intersection and say they aren’t the ones who called the ghost hunter for help.

“So you haven`t seen him either?” asked reporter Sabrina Hall.

“I haven’t seen him and I sit out here quite a bit too,” said Steven Loughridge, who lives on Perkins. “I haven’t seen him or heard him.”

If the ghost is real, the paranormal investigator says there is no telling when it will leave because he says earthbound spirits only cross over when they are ready to let go.

Einspanjer says he keeps those who contact him confidential. - WREG

China Lunar Mission

China's Chang'e-3 lunar probe is scheduled to be launched at the end of this year for a moon landing mission, the State Administration of Science, Technology and Industry for National Defence announced on Wednesday.

"Chang'e-3 has officially entered its launch stage, following its research and manufacture period," said a statement released by the administration after Wednesday's meeting on the mission.

The mission will see a Chinese space probe land on a celestial body for the first time.

"The Chang'e-3 mission makes best use of a plethora of innovative technology. It is an extremely difficult mission, that carries great risk," said Ma Xingrui, head of China's space exploration body and chief commander of the lunar program.

The Chang'e-3 mission is the second phase of China's lunar program which includes orbiting, landing and returning to Earth, following the successes of the Chang'e-2 missions, which include plotting a high-resolution, full-coverage lunar map.

Chang'e-3's carrier rocket has successfully gone through its first test while the launch pad, control and ground application systems are ready for the mission.

Chang'e-3 will be launched from the Xichang Satellite Launch Center in southwest China. - Xinhuanet

'Cat People' Encounter - North Port, Florida


I just received the following report from Albert Rosales of the Humanoid Sighting Reports & Journal of Humanoid Studies. The incident comes from a very familiar area...Sarasota County, Florida. North Port, Punta Gorda, Port Charlotte, Myakka State Park, Sarasota, etc....this part of southwest Florida has some the strangest humanoid, cryptid & supernatural phenomena in the world. In the past, I have received reports of Reptilians, Nordics, Greys, Skunk Apes, Werewolves, Dragons, etc....now this, bi-pedal 'Cat People':

Location: North Port, Florida
Date: August 2012
Time: afternoon

The witness, Kathy Rotundo, who back in the early 70’s while driving back to Cleveland from Chicago during daylight hours, saw five intensely bright orbs the size of moons flashing and bouncing all over the sky. She recently reported that while on the beach in southwest Florida she encountered two quite unusual beings that she “knew” were from “off world”. Standing only about six or eight feet from her was a man and woman that looked to be about 70 years in age who were in full body suits. This was not something you would normally see on the beaches due to hot temperatures and warm waters. Their heads were covered also and they were quite thin. All that was exposed were their faces and hands. What was so notable was their highly unusual looking faces. They looked like cats without the fur. When she saw them, “she knew immediately” they were from another planet. There was eye contact between them with telepathic communication acknowledging that she noticed them as non-human and them confirming so. They then proceeded to go out into the Gulf waters without tanks and swim much farther out than you would normally see anyone dare to go. Kathy watched them for what seemed like maybe a half hour and then they just disappeared in the waters.
