Summary: Under hypnosis the witness remembered being in a moving vehicle in a rural area when the car engine stopped. It then started again; the witness then drove and then walked to the location of an abduction. He recalled being inside an object with four to six beings around him. The beings were short with elongated heads, very large wrap around lizard like eyes, and tiny noses, mouths and ears. No clothing was noted. They had pointed feet and moved extremely quick and seemed indifferent to him. The beings communicated by using telepathy apparently warning the witness of upcoming global disasters.A well known case with witness George Pedley observing an object at close range at 0900. He saw a light gray, non-reflecting object, estimated to be 25 feet long and 8 feet thick, rising vertically from marshland. It then climbed at a 45 degree angle from a height of about 30 feet above the marsh surface. The object ascended at a point 75 feet from the witness. He could hear a hissing sound as the UFO climbed. He described it as two saucers, edge to edge.

Time: late afternoon
Summary: Several spelunkers, among them George D. Wight, were exploring the cave when they spotted a light at the end of the tunnel. As they approached it, Wight noticed a narrow crevice, just big enough for him to squeeze inside it where he found artificial steps. He called to the others and they climbed through the opening. The tunnel expanded and they suddenly came into a large corridor, 20 by 20. The walls and the floors were smooth and the ceiling had a curved dome shape. Soon they encountered blue skinned but otherwise human-like individuals. The strangers communicated with the witnesses, telling them that they had instruments that could measure people’s emotions. They learned that the tunnels went on for miles. They were led to underground cities populated by entities that included serpent-like creatures and large hairy bipeds. Using an elevator-like device, they were taken to a glass like city. Soon after this incident, Wight apparently returned to the cave and was never seen again.

Time: late afternoon
Two boys were traveling on horseback in an isolated area when a man in a tractor suddenly emerged from the valley, moving at full speed in their direction. The man was extremely agitated and told them to leave the area, that a “monster” was living in the Bottom, he had seen it only moments before. The two boys, unafraid, decided to investigate as the farmer drove away. As they entered further into the wilderness area, the horses refused to go any further, so they continued on foot. A few minutes later they found themselves in a gorgeous mountain meadow lush with flowers and sweet smelling grass. One of the boys then noticed what appeared to be clumps of white fur lying near the trunk of an old tree. It looked like a dead dog or animal. Suddenly the clump stood up and ambled toward them. It was a creature nearly 9-feet tall, and almost completely covered with thick, snow white fur. Where the skin was exposed it was a strange, pinkish color. Its face and posture was human like. It also emitted a powerful odor, and made a sound like a radio signal as it slowly approached the two boys. The signal sounded like “beep, beep, beep.” The terrified witnesses fled the area immediately. A posse was formed to hunt the creature down, but it was never found. Dead and mutilated cows were found in the area & also a human corpse, missing its limbs from its battered torso.

Summary: The 16-year old witness and a friend were at the Library of Congress when out of the blue and out of the elevator doors a stunning figure, with a perfect body; radiant beautiful blue eyes and blond short hair stepped in. The witness believes there was some sort of telepathic communication. The witness had the extreme urge to touch the stranger, but this one would simply but pleasantly not allow it. He just smiled, laughed at the same time radiating some sort of inner peace and kindness. He seemed amused at the witness childish behavior. They then followed the stranger down the corridor leading to the exit. He stood and looked back, and smiled. The witness ran out the building to see the stranger enter a yellow car that was parked just in front of theirs. The yellow car disappeared in the heavy traffic. That same night in Silver Spring Maryland both witnesses heard a voice in their dining room and kitchen. They both then looked out the window to see an unknown object hovering high in the sky. Minute’s later air force planes were seen over the area.

When he got to within 30 yards, these 3 or 4 figures disappeared into the craft, which shot out fire and smoke and rose straight up. Many small fresh holes were left at the site.

A “man” that used to be a boarder in her house awakened the witness one night. He blindfolded her and told her to follow him. He drove her for miles before stopping; she was then taken inside a landed object. Inside she saw a type of laboratory and several humanoids wearing long dark cloaks and hoods, with shadowy facial features. She was examined on a table and told that she would not be “useful” for their purposes, since she has had an operation that prevented her form having offspring.

Summary: MB was lying in bed when she suddenly became aware of a far-off whirring vibration, suddenly a small metallic Saturn shaped object appeared and hovered quietly over her bed, it seemed to have numerous oval shaped portholes around its rim. As she lay there staring at the object, she suddenly found herself inside of it. She was seated on a stool next to a porthole looking outside at what appeared to be ploughed fields and fences. Suddenly the craft swept up and nothing more was visible except for the interior of the object. She noticed sitting on a seat facing her, a very handsome man. He appeared to have perfect looks, build and immaculate in dress. He wore green “spectacles” with square frames and a hat. He stared intently at the witness. Besides him, where three more men and a woman. The woman wore a silk scarf tied around her head; a pleated woolen skirt in brown tones and a finely knitted woolen twin-set and a pair of brown brogues. She saw in the pit of the craft machinery and several crewmembers operating machinery. One of them operated a central steering column, which stood upright in the middle. Suddenly she found herself inside a large room, empty but for a white painted dining room table, oval shaped, and six tall backed chairs around it. From the wall protruded an elbow-arm with a large green disc light over the center of the table. She was alone in the room and noticed several white painted closed doors. She went to one of the doors then opened it, there was a long passage, and she went in and then found herself back in the central control room of the craft. When she became aware that they were returning to earth she panicked and pleaded with the crew not to take her back. But without any knowledge how she got there, she suddenly found herself lying in her bed again.

He looked up into the sky and saw the biggest and scariest bird-like creature gliding across the pond, silently and with glaring eyes. It looked like it had fur rather than feathers and its wingspan was about 20 ft. Terrified the witness beat a hasty retreat from the area. (Mothman in New Jersey?).
