Summary: A witness videotaped the above image of an apparent flying or hovering humanoid over this area recently. The thing looked like it had legs at one point, then just at the end you will see it seems to double up the image, which seems to be common with the inter-dimensional things. The entity seemed to have two orbs within it, you will see the strange behavior of it in the footage. Eventually the strange figure disappeared from sight. According to the witness he has filmed similar images before and states that “the activity in the skies lately is astonishing” which includes some really bizarre cloud formations. Keep an eye on the sky, and a camera close by..

Summary: Throughout September 2013, oil rig workers and residents near Artesia Wells and Cotulla reported an increase in unidentified lights darting across the sky. One worker captured a metallic object on a security camera, while a rancher witnessed multiple lights performing complex maneuvers before shooting vertically into the sky “in the blink of an eye”.

Summary: The witness heard a ‘swishing’ sound coming from outside, she then went to the back door in the kitchen and looked out. Her yard was illuminated, so she walked outside onto the porch and suddenly noticed a ‘wide disc-shaped craft’ hovering above the house. It was at least 100 feet wide. In an instant she was struck by a beam of light and lifted off the top step of the porch. She was in mid-air for almost 20 seconds, and then slowly set down by the side of the tool barn. She felt very groggy, almost as if she were ‘drunk’. She then noticed a figure moving out of a beam of blue light that came directly from below the craft. This figure was about 5 feet tall and looked human—but the extremities and head looked as though it had been “burned or charred.” Reminding her of a typical movie “zombie”. It then moved closer to her—she was literally frozen stiff. As it got closer she became nauseated—it looked and awful and had a putrid odor. It then backed away as the witness started to wretch, and then vanished into the blue beam of light. Without hesitation, the craft ascended swiftly—so fast that it created an instant vacuum that dropped her to her knees. She got to her feet and ran into the house. She was scared and worried that something else may happen. Then she noticed the time—it was 22:40, she had lost almost one hour of time. She still does not understand what happened to her or the time. She feels fine but is still very concerned. More recently there has been talk that ‘weird-looking’ people were seen moving through a local field this past weekend. There was also a series of lights seen above the horizon at the same location. She is not sure if this is related.

Summary: A husband and wife had gone to bed for the night in their master bedroom in the upstairs of the house. They had just sold the house and were getting ready to move so their bed was just a mattress on the floor. The husband liked to go to sleep listening to something in his headphones so he was lying in “bed” trying to fall asleep listening to Coast to Coast AM. He had been lying there for at least 1 hour because that’s how far along the show was. He wasn’t sleepy yet and was listening intently to the show with the eyes closed when the audio began going in and out. It was then that the feeling that he wasn’t alone came over him. He was lying on his right side with his wife to his back, he opened his eyes and the room was lit in a pale orange glow. He rolled over towards his wife and that was when he saw three “typical Gray” aliens standing in his master bedroom about 5 feet from his wife’s side of the bed. He couldn’t make out their faces. But he could tell they were thin and had large heads. He could see their outlines perfectly because of the orange glow that was emanating from the bathroom window that they were standing in front of. He could tell they were wearing some kind of tight-fitting suit that was a darker color than their gray skin. He immediately started screaming and grabbed his wife in fear. She woke up and also started screaming and then broke into prayer in her native Romanian language. The three entities then transformed into 3 orange glowing balls and floated through the walls of the bathroom. His wife began screaming again. The orange glow faded quickly as soon as the last orb passed through the wall. About 3 seconds later there were 3 quick flashes of white light that came through all 4 of the windows in the bedroom and it was over. They had a roommate that shared a wall with their bedroom that never even woke up as the couple screamed. They both got up and looked out the windows immediately but saw nothing.

Summary: A few friends and I were having a fire in a rural are when we spotted a large bright orange orb moving quickly across the sky seeming to follow a main route in the area. We watched it moving quickly in a straight line until a sudden direction change, it made an approximately 45 degree turn to the right. It then sped off disappearing in about a minute or two. It made no sound through out the event and didn’t seem to be bothered by a small prop plane that was near by. The approximate size was a golf ball held at arms length. I really have no idea how far away it really was but it did seem to follow Sr57 that was about a half a mile away.

Summary: On September 3, 2013, a viral video showed a glowing, disc-shaped object hovering over a baseball game at Nat Bailey Stadium. While it was later revealed to be a clever marketing drone for the H.R. MacMillan Space Centre, the event sparked massive international media coverage and hundreds of eyewitness reports.

Summary: The witness was arriving home from work and was driving down the driveway and as he approached the area from where the house became visible he observed an entity that was approximately eight and a half foot tall to ten foot tall. It was coming from the direction of the house from the edge of the lawn. He would have never noticed it if it wouldn’t have been reflective of the sunlight that evening. It then proceeded to cross the driveway in what looked like three steps, which a normal man would usually take about 15 to 20 large steps. He noticed that it was chrome colored and very reflective. He could see that it had arms and legs but could not see the hands or feet almost as if they were cupped. He also observed that it had appointed-elongated head almost “Egyptian-like”. It then disappeared into a wooded pasture. According to the witness he now feels watched as he drives into his driveway and has caught glimpses of it on the driveway and on the dirt road beside the property.

Location: Torsnes, Ostfold County, Norway
Time: 01:00 a.m.-02.00 a.m.
Summary: The witness was on a small island hunting for geese and fishing. There was no wind, clear sky and lots of star visible, the water was also calm, so hearing was optimal. He was on his way to meet his friend on the other side of the island when he caught sight of a moving silhouette, on the higher part of the island. It was walking very calmly, almost like “sneaking”. His immediate thought was that it had to be his friend, and thought that his friend was going to “pull a prank on him”. So the witness yelled at the figure “YOOOOOOOO” and it immediately stopped and turned only his head towards the witness. The witness had with him a flashlight, but since his friend had admonished him before for turning on the flashlight and ruining his “night vision” he did not turn on the flashlight. After about 3 seconds the figure began to walk towards the thick foliage area. Surprised, and still thinking it was his friend the witness thought, “What the heck is he doing?”
So he went up to see where and why his friend was doing this, because it made no sense that he was going into that area. Upon arrival he saw his friend coming up the same path the being or figure had headed. Both horrified and surprised he ran up to his friend and asked him, if he had just run down again towards the water, after just being here. He replied, no, and noticed the witness’ surprise. So he told his friend that they were not alone on the island, which is very small and anyone can walk the whole island in just five minutes. They searched the entire area, meter by meter with a 4500 lumen powerful flashlight and found nothing or trace of anyone else being there. The witness could not explain what he saw and could only describe the figure as humanoid in shape, dark, he could not see any colors, or any sign of clothing that would normally protrude or break the line in or out of a silhouette. Also the horizon was bright, due to some twilight in the distance. He is convinced that it couldn’t have been a human because it vanished out it air. If someone would had swam away they would have definitely hear it or even seen him or her while inspecting the island. That same night when they went to their tent they were awoken by a pulsating vibration. The witness is a heavy sleeper but this vibration managed somehow to wake him, it was not normal and he thinks his brain must have picked up as a “threat” or something unusual. His friend also woke up from the vibration. Also previously he had seen a lot of “light movement” in the sky in the same area. The silhouette was tall, thin, with a normal sized head, perhaps up to 6’6” in height. He saw it from the torso up as it was too dark to see its legs.

Time: around 9pm
Summary: I went to have a smoke and from my balcony I saw in the distance six bright lights coming up the coast. they were in a tight group and I thought it might be a group of choppers but there was no sound. The lead three distanced themselves from the rear three. Movement was odd. erratic but precise as far as formation. Suddenly the first three made what appeared to be a ninety degree turn, accelerated and just vanished. It was one of those WTF moments and I was having trouble believing what I just saw when the other three followed suit and were gone in seconds. Evidently there were others who witnessed them and reported as well. I know think it may have been two larger objects with three distinct lights because the distance between never varied in either group.

Time: 7:00PM
Summary: I was simply driving from my home in Birmingham to a friend’s home in Pell City via I-20. I was well-rested and sober, the sun had set some time before. I first noticed the object as exceedingly bright light in my rear view mirror, and assumed it was a car behind me harassing me with its high beams. Looking back turning my head and by using my mirror, I could see this object following along the highway at about 100 feet above or less, and all you could make of it was that it was extremely bright. It was going along the highway at probably about 85 mph because it overtook me after a bit, and as it went the path it took was brightly lit i.e. like the sun was up. For at least an area a couple football fields, this object was so bright that it lit up the ground like daylight and it was so bright that one could hardly see when it was within about 200 feet. After passing me, I decided it wasn’t a helicopter or anything and concluded it must be some sort of drone. However, after passing me, it gained speed in what I guess I’d call an exponential manner, speeding up to about 200 mph over the course of a couple seconds, and after following the road about half a mile then adopting an upward trajectory. It was then that it started to gain a lot more speed, and I was slowly starting to doubt that it was any sort of drone or anything when it suddenly zipped into the sky, going so ungodly fast. It had not even gotten 3000 ft off the ground when it became so fast that it became a dot in the sky and disappeared. When I first saw the object I was annoyed, then I was confused, and finally I was briefly horrified and full of disbelief. I want to say it was some kind of ball lightning, except this was huge as far as ball lightning goes(the size of a car) and it was more oval-shaped to the point that it was almost shaped like a car(no features just elaborating on the particular kind of egg shape). I couldn’t believe it when I first saw it, I told my friend when I got to his house and I assumed it would later be on the news; it wasn’t.

Location: Near Sunderland, England
Time: 1930
Summary: The witness was driving to pick up his partner from work along the A1231 highway just outside Sunderland. And as he was passing a slip road (exit) he noticed a black figure huddled on the side of the road. He slowed a little as he approached, thinking it was an animal that might dark out in front of the dark, but what he saw was no animal he has ever seen. The figure had long, shaggy black hair all over its body. It sat in an almost crouched position, with its knees drawn up to its chest and its right arm drawn around its legs, resting on its left knee. He slowed down to make sure it wasn’t a black rubbish bag and put his headlights onto full beam, and as it did the figure whipped its head around and it was the face of a dog with red eyes. The startled witness put his foot down and as he sped by the creature watched him go, never blinking. He was so frightened that he even locked the doors and rolled up the windows. After he picked up his partner he drove past the same spot and went a little slower. The figure was gone, but where it had been, the grass was flattened, so something had definitely been there. The witness could only describe the creature as a “dogman”.

Summary: Near Bustamante Park in the downtown area, a strange flying creature was seen flying from one tree to another. Its size was estimated at around 2 meters tall and shaped like a manta ray. Ignacio, a young man who was the privileged witness to this brief yet disconcerting flying being sighting, does not wish to disclose his identity but made his narrative available to journalist Juan Andres Salfate on Canal La Red (television). His description is specific, remarking that the entity had wings from the upper part of its body down to its lower part. He made a drawing of what he saw. Eyewitness testimony soon appeared in other places in Santiago. A witness named Sylvia confirmed the image of this human-looking “flying manta ray” in the Los Barrenchea Commune. Someone near Bustamante Park gave the following report: “My wife and I saw this creature in one of the towers of the San Francisco church in Santa Isabel, and it was eating something similar to a dog. I think that if you inspect this tower you will find its remains. Unfortunately, I have no evidence to give you beyond my wife’s report and my own.”
