1987: August UFO & Alien Sightings

(Last Updated On: July 4, 2016)

Date: August 1987
Location:  Near Wuhnan Hubei Province China
Time:  afternoon
Summary:  A team of scientists from Peking University, led by biology professor Chen Mok Chun, was investigating some deep fresh water pools in the area in order to film the local wildlife. While setting up their television cameras and in full view of the nine scientists, three huge creatures rose out of the pools and moved towards them. The stunned witnesses described the three huge creatures as resembling toad like beasts, with grayish white skins, mouths that were six feet across, and eyes larger than rice bowls. These grotesque creatures silently watched the scientists for a short time. One of the creatures opened its mouth and extended an enormously long tongue, which it wrapped around the cameras and tripods. While it promptly engulfed the tripods, its two companions emitted forth some awful screams, and then all three creatures submerged, disappearing from view.

Summary:  A lone hunter was out in a wooded area collecting firewood for the long stay in the area when he suddenly felt a sense of “adventure” or laziness as he put it, he stopped whatever he was doing and looked around him looking for something to do in order to “recreate” himself. He noticed nearby some brush moving aside and expected some type of animal to suddenly come out, but to his great surprise two strange figures emerged from the brush, both appeared identical to each other, both in appearance and clothing style. At first he thought these were hunters but was surprised as to how they were able to cross the river without any difficulty. He saluted the figures in a friendly manner, but these ignored him, they suddenly stopped at about 30 meters from the witness. Curious he approached the pair and as he did he noticed that these wore a one-piece tight-fitting rose-colored coveralls, it was so tight-fitting that it clearly showed the creature’s body contours. They were not taller than 1.50m and their thin bodies did not appeared to be in proportion to their large heads. They had large staring eyes without eyebrows, with a very small nose and very thin almost unseen lips. Their heads were totally bald and very wide. One of them was carrying something resembling a thin rod in his hand. The witness could not distinguish if the rod was a separate instrument or an extension to the hand. As the witness attempted to walk away his body suddenly became numb he wanted to walk but could not, strangely he remained calm. At that moment one of the humanoids grinned as if to say that everything was going to be ok that he they were his friends. The humanoids then continued on their way at a slow pace, apparently floating just above the ground. The moment that they disappeared into the brush the witness was able to immediately move again. He then returned home canceling his hunting trip.

Several youths were walking along a stream in order to find a suitable spot to fish when they suddenly came upon a very short creature only about 1/2 meter in height. It had a large oval shaped head and somewhat disproportional to the size of its body and completely bald. It had two very large round staring eyes. At first the creature appeared to have been bend down looking for something and it stood up upon seeing the children, which did not notice any arms on the creature. It wore a one-piece tight-fitting red coverall. One of the boys screamed in surprise, this apparently caused the diminutive being to sprint away towards the woods, at that same moment a second similar creature that had been hidden from view joined the first one and both disappeared into the brush. The children also ran from the area terrified. Around the same date but late at night, a bus full of passengers reportedly saw an extremely bright disc shaped craft hovering above the roadway.

The witness had been hitch hiking east of town and was walking near an overpass when he heard some rustling noises coming from some nearby brush. Looking over, he saw a short pasty-gray thin humanoid creature with huge black eyes and long thin limbs. Its hands ended in very long skinny fingers. The creature stood and stared at the witness for a few moments, while the witness attempted to avert his gaze hoping the humanoid had not see him. The humanoid briefly crouched down and then stood up again. As the witness began to walk away the creature dove over the brush and into a wash. As the witness watched, the humanoid looked back at him one more time before disappearing from sight.

Time: evening
A bizarre reptilian like creature reportedly attacked the home of a Baptist Lay minister outside of town. The man’s wife and young son said they observed a strange creature emerge from a small pond next to the family’s mobile home one day. They described the thing as man shaped but covered in dark colored scales. It had a small head set on broad shoulders, with no visible ears and a slit-like mouth. The witnesses were relieved when the creature turned and walked back into the waters, but the family was convinced it paid a return visit later that night when something banged on the side of their trailer with enough force to rock the home on its foundations.

Summary: Two witnesses Mr. Kazimierz and Sofia S. were on their way home from a nearby brickyard when suddenly Mrs. S saw a strange light, which was floating in the sky. Her husband also noticed it. The UFOs moved at a very high altitude towards the NE direction. There were two oval objects, red in color and both were the size of a house. The oval shaped objects moved in absolute silence and seemed to descend behind a neighbor’s house, about 300 meters from them. As the witnesses arrived at their home their home was suddenly illuminated by a strong white light, which also illuminated the neighborhood. They saw a total of six balls of light hovering over the area. Mr. Kazimierz went to a neighbor’s house and both then noticed another odd object, described as a giant triangle, orange-red in color, which floated in the NE direction, about 3 km from them. After 6 minutes the triangle disappeared mysteriously, emitting a strange noise. In the next few minutes they then realized that the neighbor’s barn was on fire. They ran over to help extinguish the fire, but as they arrived at the site they noticed that there was no fire only a bright light coming from another three balls of light, which were hovering at a low altitude above some fields. Other family members had by now gathered to watch the spectacle. Suddenly one daughter, 16-year old Barbara began to scream: “Green men are coming in our direction from Rzeszow”! As the group watched they saw a large “screen” which hung 20-30 meters above the ground. The screen was about 2.5-3 meters long; it was white with a black frame. It moved very quickly towards them. Terrified some of the witnesses boarded motorcycles and drove away. Inside the screen they noticed 2 figures wearing green colored “spacesuits” framed on a white background. The figures somewhat resembled ordinary humans. Other witnesses were able to provide a better description of the humanoids and described them as wearing outfits resembling knight’s armor or “dinosaur’s carapace”; they were about 2.5 m in height. The screen changed to a wheel, back to a square and then to a triangle. The spectacle lasted for several more minutes and then around 2200 all the objects and humanoids disappeared.

Moments later as the family entered their cabin they heard a loud thudding or pounding sound on the walls and experienced other type of paranormal activity.

Maria Marzoli saw a bright white light encased in what appeared to be a cloud, descend from the nearby mountain. She approached the area in order to obtain a better look when she saw three floating human-like figures approaching the light. The figures were about 1.80 meters in height and glided just above the ground in a vertical position. All wore light colored tunics and pants and had longish light-colored hair. The figures briefly turned to stare at the witness before disappearing into the bright spherical white light. The light then disappeared into the distance changing color into a greenish tint.

Summary: Four young children playing in a field reported seeing a huge metallic saucer shaped craft swoop low over them. A bright blue beam of light from the object struck them and they all suddenly found themselves aboard the object. A tall being wearing golden robes, olive tanned skin and with long shiny silvery hair apparently communicated with the children showing them views of the moon and other locations in space. The being had two large yellow eyes but was friendly with the children, he inserted a needle into each child’s right index finger and scraped them with a small “stick.” The children were eventually returned, according to reports, after 3 days. The being gave his name as “Latar”.

Location: Navoi (Uzbekistan
Time: 21:00
Summary: It was at the evening of 1987 on the south part of Navoi city in Uzbekistan, my family and I saw a bright object over the KizilKum desert. We did not see the exact shape of the object because of the distance approximately 2-3 kilometers and because of it’s brightness, the altitude of the object less then one kilometer. The object was on the same place for over 10 minutes and suddenly it separated in two parts, one bigger and other one is smaller, the smaller part become move rapidly around bigger part and looks like it was going to ground and back to bigger part. In about 20 minutes two objects merged together and moved away with a great speed. Also we did not hear any noise. Next day I found out in my school that number of people experienced the same, I am not saying that it UFO, maybe some Russian flying device but definitely not a helicopter and plane. And also the light was kind of flashing and very white and bright. Sorry if my English is not good. It is just a report, I am not trying to make any statements or release my name. Also I heard in the same area people we experiencing such things many times.777 Sincerely, ((name deleted))

Two boys who lived in base housing at the local Naval Submarine base were out in the playground equipment when they saw a large circular metallic object hovering 20-40 feet over the house. It shone a beam of light at the house then came over the boys and shone a larger beam on them. Through an opening on the object they could see an entity with large elongated cat-like ears. The entity was bent over something resembling a searchlight and was pulling a lever; a second similar entity was on another opening on the bottom lower left of the object. The beings were six-foot tall, had oval shaped heads, and their eyes were bluish green and round with long eyelashes. Their mouth was wrinkled. The fingers and toes of the creatures were described as resembling “suction cups.” The craft eventually disappeared from sight.
