3 ILLUMINATED, WINGED HUMANOIDS Seen Walking Across Road in Finland

"The creatures had round heads, but he could not see any facial features. He also saw that they had wing-like arms, which rested against their hips when they walked."

"During the first years of the 1970s, many strange humanoid sightings were made in Finland, such as the goblin-like creature in Imjärvi, the Kinnula Ufonaut, the Little Man in northern Finland and Sweden, the boy who saw humanoids on the roof of his house and then got abducted by a claw equipped saucer, the mysterious driver of the "black car" in Turku, the musician Pauli Niiranen's nightly meeting with humanoids, the snow plow man and the being in the UFO and other fascinating cases. This is another Finnish report on aliens from this time.

It was 2:30 AM on this December night in 1972 and farmer Veikko Kivioja was returning home in his car after visiting a neighbor, Seppo Oja, who lived a few kilometers away. After he had driven one and a half kilometers (approx. 1 mile) on winding and snowy forest roads, he rounded another curve and in front of him suddenly he saw three points of light on the left side of the road. He thought it was another car coming towards him on the narrow road and slowed down and then stopped the car and was now a little closer. Veikko now saw that the three lights were actually three human-like beings and there was a strange shimmer of light coming from them. The three humanoids were heading across the road in front of him towards a logging clearing on the right side of the road.

Veikko Kivioja now decided to go back to his neighbor Seppo Oja, to bring another witness with him. He drove his car forward a little to turn it around and as he did so the headlights turned on the creatures. He noticed that they were completely ignoring him as if they didn't see him at all. He drove quickly along the winding road and when he reached the neighbor's house again, he honked like a madman to get the attention of Seppo, who came out and wondered what had happened. Veikko told him and the neighbor followed, even though he didn't believe him and thought it sounded quite ridiculous. But when they got back to the clearing next to the road, Seppo realized it wasn't made up. The creatures were still there, and now they were heading for a small hill about 100 meters (110 yards) away. The two men could also see a glowing sphere that completely enveloped the creatures, and it moved at the same speed as the creatures went. The light from the sphere was so strong that it completely brightened up the surrounding forest and the trees were clearly visible. After 10 minutes the light faded away and the forest became dark again. The creatures were also gone. A short time afterward, the two men dared to get out of the car and they walked over to the hill to see if they could see any traces of the creatures. But unfortunately, they couldn't find anything.

About 4 - 5 hours after the two men´s encounter, dairy farmer Heimo Mattila was out driving his tractor on another road about 10 km (6.2 miles) away. It was still quite dark outside. Suddenly he saw a very bright light coming from the right side of the road about 100 meters (110 yards) away. It turned out to be a spherical object about 2 meters (6 feet) in diameter, emitting a bright green light. The light orb flew towards the road about 1 - 2 meters (3 - 6 feet) above the ground, at the same speed as a human walking, and it gracefully avoided all obstacles in the terrain in front of it. Heimo gassed his tractor and drove forward as fast as he could and the object crossed the road right behind him. As he drove, he could see the green orb of light behind him in the rearview mirror.

The question you ask yourself after reading the story of Heikko and Seppo and their encounter with the humanoids. Since they had spent the evening together, were both men really sober? ...Or did they look too deep into the Vodka bottle this evening? Yes, it's not entirely unbelievable. But they may also have seen something really strange. Who knows? And the farmer Heimo also saw something unusual that morning, which somewhat confirms their story." H

My Fiancé's DECEASED FATHER Showed Himself To Me!

"I looked to my left at the bedroom with its lights off, and standing in the doorway was my fiancé's father. He looked exactly like his photos, wearing the shirt he died in. He was just standing there without emotion."

I received the following account:

"Hello. My fiancé's father died when he was a child but was old enough to get to know him and spend quality time with him. He was electrocuted to death while working as an electrician and fell about 20 feet; it was pretty terrible. He was wearing a yellow and red plaid long-sleeve button-down shirt when he died. He looked exactly like my fiancé, and his photos are always around.

We stayed at his grandmother's three-story farmhouse, just the two of us when we were teenagers, and she asked us to house-sit and feed her livestock. His father grew up in that house his whole life and died when he was only 28. We stayed on the third floor because it was a really well-designed room, but also because you had to walk through this creepy, unfinished attic stairway to get there.

I was on the first floor grabbing some milk from the kitchen. I came upstairs and reached the second floor. Across from the stairway was a bathroom facing the stairwell with its light on; I looked to my left at the bedroom with its lights off, and standing in the doorway was my fiancé's father. He looked exactly like his photos, wearing the shirt he died in. He was just standing there without emotion; it felt like my breath had been sucked out of me, that's the only way I can describe it. The air left my lungs instantly.

I tensed up and walked sternly to the stairs, past the next two bedroom doorways with the lights off; he was in each one! I finally made it to the attic stairs and gasped for air as soon as I shut the door. I walked through the creepy attic, barely able to comprehend what was happening behind me. I tried to wake up my fiancé, but he's a very heavy sleeper. So, I stayed up all night trying to figure out what had happened and why. I didn't feel scared; I just felt neutral when I saw him. It was like I saw him, he saw me, and we knew each other was there. 

I never got to meet his father, and it was very nice, looking back, to be able to see him physically in person. I told my fiancé months later, and I felt terrible that he wasn't the one to see him." S

THE SAN PEDRO HAUNTING (VIDEO)

One of the more infamous haunting investigations was the San Pedro Haunting or the Jackie Hernandez case.

Dr. Barry Taff got involved in the case, along with cameraman Barry Conrad, in 1989 when he was asked to look into a house in San Pedro, California that was allegedly being haunted. The owner of the house was Jackie Hernandez, a young woman who also had some emotional problems in the past.

The investigators were told of strange smells, unexplained sounds, moving objects, apparitions, a glowing cloud that tried to suffocate her (and which had appeared in front of other witnesses), and actually witnessed a peculiar, dripping substance dripping from the kitchen cabinets.


Photographer Jeff Wheatcraft hanging from a cord attached to a nail in the attic. This was the result of an attack by the entity

The team kept hearing sounds in the attic, “like a 200-foot pound rat running around”, according to Taff. When one of the photographers, Jeff Wheatcraft, went up to the attic to take some pictures, an invisible force violently grabbed at his camera and threw it to the ground.

The team came for a second visit in September. Wheatcraft went to investigate the attic again, but this time took another person, Gary Beihm, with him. While the two were looking around, a clothesline suddenly wrapped itself around Wheatcraft’s neck and tried hanging him from a nail in a rafter. Beihm was able to get Wheatcraft down before he was strangled to death, and he also took some of the few photographs of an alleged ghost attack.

The events in the house grew stronger and even followed Jackie from place to place. Taff began to believe that she was creating the phenomena unconsciously because of her emotional problems and what became a strong romantic attachment to Barry Conrad. It seemed that anyone who might be perceived as a threat to Jackie’s relationship with Barry ended up on the end of a violent attack by the poltergeist.

However, there are problems with the theory that this was strictly a haunting brought on by a living subject. The unexplained lights are certainly odd and so would be the reports of male apparitions from witnesses. Also, as Taff found out later, Jackie’s house continued to be reported as haunted long after she moved out. According to the owners, no subsequent tenants stayed there for longer than 6 months. Could this be merely some residual from Jackie’s presence there or was there really a bonafide malevolent spirit?


'Jackie Hernandez' during the investigation

Here is another brief version of the investigation:

On the night of August 8, 1989, Barry Conrad along with friend and photographer Jeff Wheatcraft, and Dr. Barry Taff, formerly with UCLA’s parapsychology lab and principal investigator of the now famous “Entity” case, would be witness to some of the most compelling and disturbing paranormal activity. Hernandez had told them stories of flying lamps, oozing blood-like gelatin from the walls, an apparition of a decaying old man, an invisible force that would hold her down as though trying to smother her, as well as a floating disembodied head in her attic. So before they left that evening Conrad suggested that Wheatcraft check out the attic. Not long after crawling through the small hole in the ceiling, Jeff’s camera was ripped from his hands into the darkness of the attic. Expectedly, quite shaken he bolted from the attic. Later he would venture back up into the attic in hopes of retrieving the camera. As he searched the empty attic he found an old dusty grape box, which when opened contained his camera, but strangely no lens. Continuing his search he found the surprisingly undamaged lens behind the trap door to the attic. Jeff decided to see if he could get a couple more shots before leaving. But as he began shooting a foul stench began to permeate the attic and without warning he was shoved by an invisible hand into the rafters. And this wasn’t the worst of the activity.

A month later on September 4th, they would be called back by a frantic Jackie Hernandez. The activity was escalating and getting more violent. Arriving around 1am, Jeff and friend Gary decided they should investigate the attic again. Jeff would pay for it, as he was attacked more brutally than the first encounter. Conrad down below with Hernandez heard a loud moan, it was Jeff. Something had grabbed Jeff by the neck and pulled him into the rafters. Somehow able to pull himself free, Jeff and Gary exited the attic. It was then that they all noticed an old cord wrapped around Jeffs neck. It was then that Gary explained that he actually had to pull Jeff off a nail in the rafter and if he hadn’t been there Jeff might have been strangled to death. But there was a plus to the attack, Gary snapped off a photo at the precise moment of the entity yanking Jeff into the rafters.

Jackie Hernandez would eventually move out of the house after the activity became so dangerous that she felt her children were in danger. The following is an update from 2015:

Hernandez left her San Pedro home and returned to live with her husband in a trailer park about 300 miles away. The paranormal activity that plagued her in San Pedro immediately stopped. After her relationship with her husband fell apart, however, strange things started happening again. When she and some neighbors were putting a TV away into her shed, the image of the old man from San Pedro manifested itself on the screen. Throughout the rest of the night, she heard something pounding from the inside of the shed.

The investigators were called in again. As soon as they got inside Hernandez’s trailer, their equipment kept inexplicably switching off. Once they started using a ouija board, the table began to shake, and everybody present felt cold chills. The board told them that it was the spirit of a young man who died in San Pedro harbor when he was 18-years-old in 1930. His murderer lived in the San Pedro house. They stopped the session when Wheatcraft was lifted up into the air and thrown against the trailer’s wall. He dropped to the floor, unconscious. When he woke up, he said that he felt something squeezing his diaphragm, and then the next thing he knew, he was thrown against the wall and passed out.

After digging through old newspapers, Hernandez identified the ouija board spirit as the ghost of a young seaman named Herman Hendrickson. Hendrickson’s body was found floating in San Pedro Harbor on March 25, 1930. As for the ghost of the old man, Hernandez thought that it was John Damon, the man who built the San Pedro home. She has said that a ball of light appeared to her while she was in San Pedro in the spring of 1990. The ball led her to a cemetery, where it hovered around one of the graves before vanishing. The name on the grave’s stone marker?
