Summary: A 39-year old man reportedly encountered several aliens ranging from 1.6 m to 3 m in height, of stumpy build, light pink skin, with very flat noses, with nostrils sharply turned up. Their eyes were almost human-like. They were dressed in dull-gray tight-fitting overalls with dark covering cloaks over their shoulders. Apparently they could smile and possessed a “sense” of humor. Communication was by both telepathy and at brief times by voice. He was taken inside an egg-shaped craft no less than 10 m in length. The doors of the object opened up like an elevator. A bright white light surrounded the craft. Inside he could see a control panel and a large screen. He was transported aboard a “mothership” shaped like an “L” that was apparently orbiting the earth. The large ship had numerous small portholes. He was then transported to their planet. The landscape on the alien planet was described as deserted. The buildings resembled shiny polished blocks, of some sort of yellowish plastic. He was paralyzed for some time and most of his memory was erased.

Summary: I did have a sighting back in August I think it was August as it was very, very hot and the year I think was 1977 at 11:30 p.m. in Scarborough, Ontario around York Mills Road and Roywood Drive. My sister and I went out for a walk at 11:30 p.m. and about 5 minutes later as we were in the small park that was when we saw the UFO, it was right on top of us. Yes right on top of us was a saucer shaped UFO with great colours like orange, green, red etc.. The bottom of the craft had many panels, and on each panel had a colour. We stood there in awe as a military helicopter went right by it, as if they didn’t even see it, or was trying to take a better look, and yes it was huge, but magnificent. Then all of a sudden, it went straight up in the air with just a strange kind of a wind noise, and as it went up high it seemed to just miss an airplane, then a zig zag while moving upward at a very, very fast speed then darted left and was gone, almost like a catch me if you can playful behavior. It moved pretty darn fast if you ask me. I am not sure how long all of this took or how it snuck up on us, but time seemed to be moving very, very slowly. I ran back home to call the police and they asked me questions, like how much alcohol or drugs did I take. Of course none, then within 20 minutes after my call the air force was all over that sky literally, and they are saying it was an air balloon no way it was a UFO sighting. I have also had other sightings all in Toronto, Ontario again with the same craft at 5 years later, again sneaking up on me and many others from a farther distance and more than one craft at a time.

Two witnesses involved in a previous encounter, watched 6 or 7 humanoids with glowing green belts, similar to those they had seen the week before. Two of them had grayish glowing belts, and one of the witnesses saw two normal sized human figures that glowed a silvery white instead of green. After an hour of observation they woke a third witness, who saw only blue green lights. When they shone a flashlight beam on one of the figures, it disappeared, but was still there when the beam was removed. It gradually became foggy and at 0430A they went to bed, but the two original witnesses thought they could hear the sound of a woman screaming three times, and a door slamming. They again experienced headaches and ringing in their ears. The third witness, who heard a noise like someone chiseling rock and a high pitched chirping sound, did not suffer from headache. They saw no UFOs that night, but others reported objects locally on subsequent nights.

Caferina Vargas Martin, 20, of Escalada, left her home at 1930 to walk to her grandmother’s house at La Corte, about 3 km distant. The pathway between the two villages winds along a creek at the foot of a mountain. With much vegetation along the way. While she was walking along this pathway, at about 1955 she was momentarily blinded by a bright reflection of light; about 20 meters further on, another flash of light shone in her face. Now she believed it was a bicycle headlight, but she suddenly felt her strength ebb away as the light source was replaced by two strange figures-a woman of two meters height and a slightly shorter man. The woman had long platinum hair that hung to the middle of her back; the man’s was shorter and slightly disordered. Their facial features were “repulsive” to the witness; the woman had very large eyes, only two holes where her nose should be, and a slit like mouth that moved without opening. Both figures were dressed in tunic like garments; hers was of a dark green color, but very brilliant, as if made up of many little points of light, and wide sleeves extended to her hands. The tunic extended to the ground so her feet were not seen. The man’s tunic was of a light chestnut color, also with brightly reflecting points of light; it extended to his knees, below which was a narrow, darker tunic that extended to the ground. Their skin was citron yellow color. While the woman gesticulated with her arms, both beings remained indifferent to the witness’s presence. Feeling faint, the witness sat down on a rock; then she passed out. When she came to, there was no one there, and it was then dark. Frightened and upset, she ran back home. It was 2050 when she arrived. The witness suffered from shock and had nightmares for the next several nights, and had to be treated by doctors. Some personal belongings also turned up missing.

Tom Dawson, 63 and retired, was walking with his two dogs from his trailer home to a nearby farm when a “circular shaped space ship” with a dome and portholes, 40-50 ft in diameter and 12-14 ft high, set down in a field in front of him, hovering several feet off the ground. He found he was unable to move a muscle, and his dogs, as well as the cattle in the field, seemed likewise to be immobilized. A hatch in the object opened, a ramp was extended, and 7 strange looking humans 5 ft tall emerged, five men and two women. The first to leave stepped down cautiously, as if to test the solidity of the ground; then the rest followed, with two taking up sentry positions at the hatch. They were all hairless, with skin “as white as a flour sack,” their noses were sharp and turned up, their ears were pointed, and they had no necks. One of the men and one of the women were completely nude. The clothing of the rest-males and females alike-was very beautiful with silk like shoes with pointed, turned up toes. The humanoids cautiously approached Dawson, and gave him a kind of physical examination, placing on his head a skullcap with cords connecting it to a hoop bearing dials. They dropped his trousers and lifted his shirt for the examination, passing the hoop over his body. While the examination was in progress, a loud voice came from the object, shouting three times ” I am Jimmy Hoffa” (!) a fourth repetition was cut off, and the voice was not heard again. After completing the examination, all returned to the craft except two men, who walked about 10 feet away and “went into a conference.” They had very shrill voices, and although Dawson was unable to comprehend what it was they said, he thought he heard the word “Jupiter.” He had the impression they were debating whether or not to take him onboard; at any rate, they did not, and the leader passed his palm across his chest as though to signal good-bye. They reentered the ship, closed the hatch, and took off. He saw the object rise to 75 feet, and then in a wink it was out of sight. Dawson was then freed of his paralysis; he ran directly to his next-door neighbor, but was so excited he could say nothing more than “space ship!” He was taken to a hospital and treated for hysteria.

In a trance or dream like state the 7-year old witness was visited in his room but a small gray entity. Looking outside his window he saw a hovering silvery disc-shaped object. His next memory was of being floated down his stairway, out the front door, up over his neighbor’s yard. Then he would be standing in a gas station parking lot. The little gray being, with large head, large black eyes and very thin would play with him and beckon the witness to follow him. The witness remembered refusing to go, then being back in bed and seeing the little alien wave goodbye and fly off into the hovering UFO. Since that time the witness has seen other UFOs.

A large gray-black bird-like creature flew out of the northeast and in a circle about 300 ft away from the observers as if looking for a tree big enough to hold it. Finally it landed near a small pond close to the house. John and Wanda Chappell described it as resembling a prehistoric bird. The head didn’t have any feathers and it had a long neck, crooked, like an “S” shape. They estimated the wingspan at ten to 14 ft. It was about 4 ft high. After a few minutes it flew in a southwest direction.

Rolando Sanjines was walking back home after work at a local radio station when he noticed a small bright light high over the area, it was very luminous and appeared to be descending. It suddenly shot down close to the ground and the witness could see that it was an oval shaped spaceship. It remained suspended about 30 cm above the ground. Soon he heard a telepathic message from the occupants of the craft, who he visualized as beautiful human-like creatures. They explained to the witness that they came from the red planet Mars and its moons, Phobos and Demos. He was told that there were a total of five occupants onboard the ship. Arriving home soon after the experience, Sanjines suffered from vomiting and general malaise. His girlfriend could not approach him since he appeared to be surrounded by static electricity. He reportedly had prophetic dreams soon after the encounter.

Moments later two figures with gold colored faces appeared in front of the light. The light then moved to the right side near the curtains which apparently were the only things separating the witness from the phenomenon. Soon after, a humanoid figure entered through the curtains, it had an oval shaped head with an upside down triangle shaped light on the top section of its face. The witness yelled out causing the figure to walk away, apparently leaving a slightly luminous handprint on the curtains. Soon after, two more figures were heard walking by.

Summary: An on duty police officer PC IAN MACKENZIE observed two very bright horizontal lights in the vicinity of Langdale Pike that moved towards him and grew brighter. He ruled out any type of aircraft. At the same time PS JOHN McMULLEN also spotted the UFO from his location whilst walking through Keswick with three other officers. He described the object as being hang glider or diamond shaped. At 0020 hours PS JAMES TROHEAR and PC JOHN FISWICK also reported seeing the object from their position at the Fallbarrow Park Caravan Site on the shores of Lake Windermere. Other unnamed officers were also present at that location and saw the object. PS TROHEAR described the object as triangular or diamond shaped. At 0022 hours PC ALEXANDER INGLIS was driving home with three colleagues along the A591Keswick to Bothel road when they too caught sight of the lights. As the object approached them he pulled the car over to have a better look. Despite their efforts they could not make out a distinct shape of the object. All they could make out was two extremely bright lights attached to it and there was a faint purring noise associated with it. At 0025 hours PC JOSEPH MAW and a colleague spotted the object heading in the direction of Buttermere. It was traveling at a low altitude over the surrounding fells. At around the same time PC DAVID WILD spotted the UFO whilst out on foot patrol on the A592 Rayrigg Road to Bowness. He described it as kite shaped and that it was a very large structured craft. At 0030 hours a number of civilian witnesses also spotted the object. At the same time following a police radio request for officer sightings, two further officers, PS GEOFFREY MERCKEL and PC RONALD JONES observed the same UFO from their position at Skelwith Bridge on the A593 road. They described the object as being kite shaped as they watched it go out to sea over Morcambe Bay. Multiple police witness corroboration reported from several geographical locations.

The figures at least 7-foot tall, were red orange in color, as if wearing celluloid suits, and had huge heads that reminded them of Guardsmen’s busbies. The figures stood motionless facing each other slightly, and appeared to be holding some sort of object between them. They had chrome or silver colored antennas that appeared to come out of their chests and stood as high as the tops of their heads. The two men drove right on past without stopping and although the figures were in view for no more than six of seven seconds, they were fully lit by the eight headlights of the large rig. No object was seen by either man. Three months later there was a fatal car accident at the same site, killing four men.

Two college students, Rocco Cerullo, and Michael Giovanelli, were walking from Sturno to Frigento when they saw three red lights symmetrically arranged in the midst of shrubbery overhanging the road, and heard an intermittent “beep-beep” sound. Walking on near a quarry, they saw a figure over two meters tall wearing a silvery close fitting coverall and a helmet. Where the eyes should be were two blinking orange lights. The witnesses fled back to Sturno, where they found three other friends, and returned in a car. All five saw the strange being advancing and withdrawing, with mechanical movements, on a steep slope. It seemed to stand at an angle, perpendicular to the slope. The car was not driven into the abandoned quarry, which appeared to be lighted as if by a halo, they became frightened and sped back to Sturno, returning with two more witnesses; the humanoid was still there, coming and going with emissions of intermittent light from its helmet. When one of the parties flashed a light on the figure, it emitted sounds like “radio signals” it approached the car and the sounds ceased. It came no closer than 15 feet, and beckoned, as though for the witnesses to follow. Finally, at about 0330A, it emitted a blinding light from its helmet and disappeared. The outline of an object with portholes had been seen further down the slope. After the flash, the men fled back to the village, when they again returned, everything was gone. Next day trampled bushes were found, and in the quarry 3 holes arranged in an isosceles triangle.
