Summary: As the witness boyfriend lay sleeping in bed she got up to use the bathroom. After she left the bathroom she decided to walk out to the living room and have a cigarette before she tried to go back to sleep. The apartment was pitch black. There were no windows except in the bedroom, which was covered with blinds and curtains, and the living room had a sliding glass door to a balcony that was right along side the main door and completely closed up with a drape as well. As she started down the path to the front of the living room she could sense someone walking up behind her. She thought it was her boyfriend and continued down the hall expecting that he was wanted to scare her. After a couple of more steps, she quickly glanced back and was stunned when she didn’t see him behind him, but what appeared to be an outline of a figure with a faint glow around it, she could see the bedroom door behind/through it. She looked straight ahead and continued walking. She was stopped on her tracks as she reached the end of the walkway where it branched to either the entry to the kitchen or the entry to the dining room or straight ahead to the living room. She literally felt as though something was standing in front of her. She was afraid to look up but did glance behind at which time she saw the same outline as before only more defined, there was almost an actual being there though it seemed to glow all around. She quickly turned back toward the living room, as it seemed there was only one presence in front and behind her, but also from the dining room and the kitchen. She was literally trapped by the four separate beings. The more she was feeling and seeing them, the more she could see them take shape. The one behind her seemed to be wearing suspenders and maybe plaid, and was probably no more than 5’7″, but the others seemed quite a bit larger and taller. The whole time that she felt their presence around her she felt a wind moving around at the end of the walkway. There were no windows opened. She could also hear what sounded like unintelligible whispering. During all this she was trying to look away and reach the light on the kitchen entry directly behind her on the hallway wall she was leaning on. She felt as though the presences were forcing her to the floor. She did manage to turn on the light; as soon as she did the room seemed back to normal. It wasn’t cold or windy. Her boyfriend had been sound asleep the whole time.

The beam of light descended from the sky and landed on a nearby balcony, and suddenly a totally naked male figure materialized within the beam of light right on the balcony. The UFO itself was unseen but was obviously hovering high above. The man was apparently semi-conscious and disoriented. Frightened the witness ran back inside, thinking that he might the next abduction victim.

The witness was in his vehicle entering a viaduct (bridge) 90kms from Istanbul and as his car slowed down to 120kmh the headlights of his car shone on a bizarre animal or creature crossing the road just ahead of him. It sort of leapt into the highway just from behind the barrier. It then bounded across the highway. The fashion in which it was running was peculiar: it was arching its back as its head was still held low and between its shoulders. It had a shiny gray-silvery color body. It had no tail. The witness hit the brakes in order to give it more time to get across. Just as it got across the 4 lanes and reached the mid barriers, it stopped and rose on its hind feet. It stood just as a kangaroo would stand and looked around. It stared at the headlights as though it was mesmerized for a few seconds. Its forelegs were long enough to touch its knees. Its eyes reflected the headlights, in green. By then the witness had come as close as 30meters from it. It had a slight hunch while standing up and the witness estimated its height at about 1.65m, when it was erect. Then it leapt across the middle barrier and bounded across the other side of the highway, which headed east. The witness further described the creature as having fairly large eyes and no hair.

70-year old Domingo Ramos awoke to the sounds of very loud commotion coming from rabbit cages. Looking out the window he was stunned to see a bizarre winged bird-like creature with long wings and huge protruding eyes apparently “sucking” the blood out of the unfortunate rabbits. Ramos described the creature as about 5 ft tall that also attacked a goat, which it left wounded and weakened. Ramos yelled at the creature, which then rose up and flew away in an unknown direction. The terrified witness described the creature as having “semi-human” facial features. He notified the police in the morning.

A local artist was painting the roof of his apartment when he “felt” something watching him. Looking up, he saw a metallic knob or helmet shaped object about the size of a car, hovering directly above him. He could “see” one occupant, a “cloaked” figure, although the object had no windows; this “seeing” was ore a feeling and the witness was in fact sure there where two such figures in the object although he could only “see” one. The object vanished after about one or two seconds, the witness thinks in response to his looking up at it. There was no suggestion that it went anywhere, it just instantly disappeared.

A woman from a nearby village reported seeing a round object flying at a very low altitude “about 4 ft from the ground”. According to her, the object came very close to her and tried to “take her away” by using some kind of force to pull her towards it. She said she managed to avoid being “taken” by holding on to a small tree until the object finally gave up and left.

The witness (a teacher) was in her room grading some papers when all of the sudden she noticed a bright light outside her apartment. She stepped outside to see what it could be when she suddenly felt a warm sensation come over her body. Her next memory was on being alone, lying on a cold hard table with figures wearing doctor-like masks standing around her. The figures were at least 8 ft tall. They appeared to be “slimy” since the witness was touched in several private places by the humanoids. They stuck a needle in the witness, but she felt no pain. In the background there were more figures that appeared to be the female version of the other ones. The humanoids spoke in an unknown language that could not be understood. The speech resembled a series of clicks and mumbled speech. The room grew cold and she felt “something” being pulled out of her. (She believes it was her appendix). She lost consciousness again at this point. She woke up later and found a scar on her side.

Summary: 24-year old Milagros Linquin had gone into a rocky hillside in order to retrieve her goats when he noticed a shiny object on the nearby hill. Close to the summit she noticed a metallic object similar to a bus, rectangular in shape with numerous visible windows and doors on one of its visible sides. She counted about 8 windows on the craft. The object appeared to be made out of a shiny metallic alloy, which reflected the rays of the sun. Around the craft she noticed other shiny objects, square in shape, some bigger than the others, she counted about 14 of this square metallic “covers”. At this point, her father, 74-year old Don Linquin came up and also noticed the shiny metallic object. In the meantime Milagros had climbed a bit further and was now closer to the object. At this point both witnesses noticed several human like figures wearing white tight-fitting garments moving around the object, apparently working on the shiny metallic covers or plates. There were about 6 figures in total. Don Linquin also noticed, a little further down from the summit three additional human like figures these dressed in black tight-fitting outfits that appeared to be looking around and inspecting the surroundings. After about 30 minutes, Milagros climbs higher in order to approach the object and its “occupants” but when she does, the whole scene appears to have vanished. Later while checking the supposed landing site a deep rectangular track is found on the ground.

Summary: Alerted by the sounds of his barking dogs, 62-year old Patricio Saldaño, armed with a flashlight went out to investigate. He noticed that the dogs were furiously running back & forth from one area of the yard to the other. He then saw standing only about 10 meters from him a huge hairy figure standing on two legs. It resembled a giant ape, which stared at the witness with large bright red eyes. The creature was silent and moved its huge arms in an apparent attempt to scare the dogs away, which curiously did not attack. The creature had long sharp claws that reflected the light in the darkness. His wife and two young children also saw the bizarre creature, which disappeared into the darkness. Several days earlier a dead calf had been found dead and partially eaten.
