2004: August UFO & Alien Sightings

2004: August UFO & Alien Sightings Archive

August 2004 stands out as a month of unprecedented high-strangeness, characterized by a global surge in diverse humanoid and unidentified aerial phenomena. From the “Batman-like” winged entity encountered on a dark Maryland street to the terrifying “water spirits” reported in the lagoons of Guatemala, the accounts in this archive defy singular classification. This comprehensive collection documents nearly 8,000 words of eyewitness testimony, including military encounters during European maneuvers, anomalous entities in the American Midwest, and mass sightings over the Australian coast. Together, these reports provide a detailed snapshot of a world interacting with the unknown during a significant summer in UAP history.

Date:  August  2004
Location:  Maryland (exact location not given)
Time:   0100                          Duration: 5 Seconds
Altitude:  15 feet         Distance:  20 feet                       Shape: Large Prehistoric Bird / Humanoid
Features: Batman-style spike ears, glowing eyes, muzzled head, and large flapping wings
Summary:  An 18-year old man was returning home from his girlfriend’s house and had decided to take a shortcut through a dark, tree-lined street. He had made it nearly to the end when he “started to feel strange”. He looked up, and about 20 feet in front of him and about 15 feet above the ground he saw this big, black thing hovering in the air that was about 8 feet tall. He remembers it as having a body like a big prehistoric bird, but it looked completely black. He couldn’t make out its shape except for its outline. It had ears or something that were like spikes that came straight up, kind of like the ones on Batman’s suits. Its eyes glowed like when you shine a flashlight at an animal’s eyes and he could hear a prolonged pulse sound in his head that was more like a vibration. On seeing this, the witness was understandably terrified. The thing had huge wings but strangely, they seemed to be flapping in slow motion, like a “jellyfish would move.”
This bizarre slow-motion effect has also been reported during other, seemingly unrelated, humanoid encounters. After about five seconds the horror turned its head to the side as if looking at a nearby tree, and allowed the witness to view its head in profile, which he claimed was muzzled, resembling a dog’s. It let out a shriek that sounded like a mixture of a woman’s and animal’s. Then it “flew into the tree like a Mack truck—and vanished.” As might be expected, the man had trouble sleeping that night and decided to return to the scene the next day with his younger brother. They found the side of the tree where the creature had crashed and disappeared was destroyed.

Location: Laguna Saquixpec, Guatemala
Time: evening
Summary: At this small lagoon located about 15 hours as the crow flies, from the capital of Guatemala City, locals report that the waters of the lagoon are inhabited by some kind of beast or as some call it, “a water spirit” (water sprite?). In one occasion a local youth spotted a duck swimming towards the center of the lagoon and killed the unfortunate bird using a slingshot. (The lagoon is about 50 meters in width at this point). He decided to swim towards where the body of the duck floated, so he could take it home with him and cook it. As others watched from the shore, as the young man grabbed the duck something or somebody grabbed him from under the murky waters and dragged him down. Locals waited for the body of the young man to surface for several days but it never did. But according to witnesses six days later the body of the young man was flung out of the water violently, according to a man named Pedro the body flew up into the air approximately 4 meters and then fell on the shore of the lagoon. When authorities arrived, including forensic medical personnel it was determined that the young man had been deceased for only a few hours (!), despite the fact that he had apparently been underwater for six days. Later some men attempted to measure the depth of the lagoon where the young man had disappeared and using a small canoe and a long rope (30 meters) stunned the men had to tie two additional 30 meter ropes to the original since they were not able to touch the bottom of the lagoon, at 90 meters depth they gave up. At that same moment the men noticed that from the shore of the lagoon a strange creature was watching their actions, the bizarre creature was about 3 meters in height, hairy and canine in nature, it quickly jumped in the water and began swimming towards the men in the canoe, who in a panic were able to quickly row back to shore and summon the authorities. A search was conducted but nothing was found.

Summary:  The 10-year old witness was picnicking with his family in the park grounds when he wandered alone into the nearby forest, and was looking at all the trees. He was walking around when he heard the sound of music he followed it until he reached a clearing. And like a scene from a movie, sitting on an old stump on the edge of the clearing was a ‘little boy’. He looked like he was about seven.
He had medium length blond hair and was playing a recorder made of wood of some sort. He must have heard the witness, because he looked up at him. The strange boy had pointed ears and dark green eyes. He looked at the witness and smiled. He asked the witness if he would play with him. His voice was really strange, almost like a bell (musical?). The witness told him he couldn’t that he had to get back to his family. The strange boy looked really sad for a minute but then started smiling, and told the witness that it was okay that he would wait until he could play with him. Then he stood up and walked off into the forest. The witness has been back to that area several times. The clearing is still there but the stump on which the strange ‘boy’ was sitting on is long gone. The second or third time he went back he left a slice of apple sitting near where the stump was, when he went back the next day, the apple slice was gone and in its place was a very smooth stone.

Summary:  The witness always rode his mountain bike early in the morning for exercise, this day was no different and about 30 seconds after turning onto the last section of residential street of his route “someone” ran into the street about 25-30 feet in front of him, this entity was in a full sprint as if it’s life depended on it, like something was chasing it, it came from a yard on the east side of the street, crossed the street in full sprint and entered a yard on the west side of the of the street. The sighting lasted about 5 seconds. This entity was bipedal and about 1-1.5 feet tall wearing an earthly greenish brown hooded cloak, the only features visible were the ankles and feet, both clad in the same greenish brown color, once it entered the grass it visibly disappeared as if the cloak color shifted to match the grass. His first thought was, “gnome”? But rational thinking told him gnomes didn’t exist. He felt confused but never told anyone about the incident.

Summary:  The main witness, a Ms. A. was hitchhiking along with a pregnant female and two young boys when a white car stopped to pick them up. Inside the vehicle were two young men with very pale skin and wearing tight-fitting uniforms. Once inside the vehicle Ms. A noticed what appeared to be some kind of control panel in place of the regular dashboard, filled with numerous buttons and multicolored lights somehow different from normal lights. She also noticed that the two strangers had very pointy ears. When asked where they were from the two said Veracruz. Later during a conversation one of them “men” asked why did humans fight over “papers”, when asked what “papers” did he mean, he answered “the paper used to purchase items (obviously money)”. The conversation continued in which the strangers asked the witness “if she wanted to know Mars” a question in which everyone took as a “joke” and laughed about it. Upon arriving at Orizaba the pregnant woman disembarked in the city “Pantheon” and the two young men at the Chedraui Market. Ms. A. continued on to the center of the city, the strangers then decided to stop at the Orizaba Cathedral. There as the witness exited the vehicle she was surprised to see that the two “men” seemed to be floating about 30cm above the ground. Stunned she watched as the two strangers re-entered the vehicle and drove towards the suburb of Madero Norte. The two strangers have given Ms. A. their supposed address but upon checking with a friend it turned out to be a deserted beach in Veracruz, on the beach she found a strange circle on the sand.

Summary:  Several friends including the main witness, Dmitriy were camping in the area overnight. After midnight, Dmitry sat near his tent in order to admire the full moon. Suddenly on a rock just 10 meters away he saw a strange creature. The creature was approximately 1.4-1.6 m in height, with greenish skin, and limbs similar to humans. It had large round eyes which emitted a bright phosphorescent light. Curious, Dmitriy stared at the creature which he was able to clearly see under the light of the full moon. At one point Dmitriy made an inadvertent noise and the creature looked directly at him, he then heard a sort of hissing sound and the creature jumped behind the rock and out of sight. Dmitriy immediately woke the rest of his friends and they went to inspect the rock on which the creature had sat. While looking around the rock they noticed a strange odor, resembling that of ‘carbide’. The next day they met three other tourists who reported seeing the same or similar creature on numerous occasions and reported being as close as three meters from it.

Features: 
Summary:  For a couple of nights the witness had been seeing lights outside her bedroom window and thought it was a helicopter but could not see it. She lived in an old frame house and the four windows in his bedroom stretched from the ceiling almost to the floor.
The second night she saw the lights she had just gone to bed around 2230. She couldn’t find the helicopter so she went back to bed. Around midnight she was fully awakened by a gray being standing at the foot of her bed. She was very frightened and could not move. All she could do was, stare into its deep black eyes. The being’s skin was gray. It had the blackest eyes the witness had ever seen and they were hypnotic. It was about five feet tall, with huge almond-shaped eyes.
The being was ‘scanning’ the witness who could actually feel it inside his mind. It was scanning her mind and her body. She felt that the being was learning all about her. She was so frightened so she thought he would just close her eyes for a few seconds. That’s the last she remembers of the encounter.

Location:   about five miles southeast of Marshfield, Wisconsin 
Time:  
Summary:  “We were outside in the late afternoon feeding horses and showing a horse to a couple who stopped by,” the witness stated.“It was a dark, cloudy day and it looked like we were going to get a storm. Clouds were very low and dark. All four of us were standing next to the barn, my wife and the couple facing me, me facing them (south).” The witness was asked a question, but stopped in mid-sentence because of what he was seeing in the sky. “I saw a large metallic object very slowly emerge from a low cloud behind the three people I was talking to.” The witness eventually told the group what he had just seen, but no one seemed to believe him. “About 10 minutes later the conversation was still going on, but this time my wife and the couple were the ones facing south, when all of a sudden all three of them said, there it is and pointed over my shoulder.” The witness turned around, but the object had already slipped back into the cloud. “The UFO was disc-shaped and looked to me a bit like brushed metal, no windows, doors, lights or anything other than a metallic disc. It made no noise. It moved very smoothly and deliberately.” The witness has an aerial photography background and understands how to judge altitude. “This object could not have been more than 200 or 300 feet up and was very clearly visible to me. I knew instantly that this was not something ordinary. It left me with a very eerie, nervous feeling that I was not just being watched, but that at least for those few minutes I was being watched in some weird way and on some kind of level that I do not ever recall feeling before.”

Summary:  A strange and sinister triangular form was observed by several witnesses at this location. A local man, Victor Harris, saw the aerial object on two consecutive days, and observed it for several minutes. He claimed that the ‘thing’ had a negative vibe and that, “…it was jet-black and very matt, it didn’t reflect the sun…it wasn’t a craft for it was too flat to have any occupants…it was about thirty-feet across…it seemed to be slowly flapping what appeared to be two rear points of the triangle.” The second day of the sighting brought attention from the local police helicopter, but as it approached the mystery thing, the ominous sky invader vanished. Despite more than fifteen people seeing the strange form, the encounter never made the local news and has so far, faded into obscurity.

Date: August 2 2004
Location: Partenit, Crimea, Ukraine
Time: 0500A
Summary: A young man, Andrey Alexandrovich Zabava (Janefarlz) was spending some time on the seashore near Cape Plaka in the company of several tourists from Russia and Poland. Their basic reason for being there was to observe the surroundings and to “hunt” for UFOs, out of Andrey’s belief that there is an underground alien base hiding inside Ayu-Dug (Bear) Mountain (570.8 above sea level) just west of Partenit. The first six nights it was uneventful but on the 7th night they saw several dim spots of yellow lights that appeared one after the other on the northeastern rocky slope of Ayu-Dug, where there are no known buildings. The lights were positioned in a triangle-shaped form, giving the impression of being navigation beacons, possibly installed by the aliens near the entryway to their base. At about 0100A a strange object appeared from the west slowly floating in midair above the Black Sea. The object made a slow right turn drifting in total silence heading towards Ayu-Dug and slowly descending. When the object approached Andrey could discern an elongated rhomb-shaped form, clearly outlined by rows of lights. Four bright emerald green lights were positioned at the four corners of the craft, numerous red lights were running along its edges and constantly blinking in a clock-wise direction and large bright yellow-green lights were located at the center of the bottom of the craft, while four blue lights were positioned around it in a cross shape. This magnificent craft had several dimly lit yellowish windows along its top section. When the craft as its closest, Andrey felt a stream of hot air emanating from it. While the UFO passed along the seashore, Andrey noticed that all electric lights along the banks of sea blinked out simultaneously as if there had been some type of power interruption. The craft then approached Ayu-Dug and seemed to dissolve into thin air, at this point it had been flying at a very low altitude. Immediately after, a bright beam of light appeared from the seashore and began searching the sky and scanning the water, apparently frontier guards had been alerted to the presence of the strange craft. Andrey also noticed that his friend Vitya’s watch had stopped when the craft passed directly overhead. At around 0300A Andrey noticed bright yellow flashes of light at the top of the mountain, resembling fireworks or explosions. Soon a total of 8 groups of objects zoomed out of the mountain the next 15minutes and flew away towards the southwest and eastwards towards Novorossiysk. At 0500A Andrew and Vitya began descending Cape Plaka when they suddenly heard a voice yelling from behind them, “Sons!” They stopped and turned around. A figure resembling that of an elderly woman stood on a rock. Details of the face could not be discerned because it was still dark; it was not facing them, as it stood sideways. The height of the strange “woman” was about 1.5m and was dressed in a long grayish loose fitting garment completely covering her legs and head, with a hood covering her head. Her apparel somewhat resembled that of a nun. In a soft female voice in pure Russian she said, “Sons Don’t tell anybody down there about what you have seen, they will not understand” The somewhat stunned young men did not began a conversation with the strange woman and did not pay much attention to her. Several seconds later Andrey turned around again and the woman had disappeared into thin air. There was only a sharp rock outcrop and no place to hide. Agitated the witnesses searched for the “nun” everywhere but did not find anything. So they continued to their descent from the rock when suddenly Vitya screamed pointing to the water near one of the Partenit’s piers. There they saw another humanoid entity, very tall, about 2-3 meters in height, dressed in a tight-fitting suit, dark blue in color, like a spacesuit, which covered completely its body, it had a helmet, which was attached directly to the suit. A yellow rectangular “window” was positioned in the face area, but the facial features were not visible. The entity was standing in the water up to the waist and looking at the embankment and houses on the shore. Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, after several seconds of observation the alien figure simply dissolved into thin air. The stunned witnesses descended to the hamlet in a very agitated state. In the pier they spoke to an old sea captain named “Jora” that reported experiencing problems with his electronic equipment onboard his cutter on several occasions recently.

At about a dozen kilometers from Wroclaw Anna noticed an unusual intense light that was much bigger than a star. The object/light seemed to hovering above the western sector of Wroclaw. Attracted by the light they decided to stop at the nearest parking lot in order to observe it better. They could now see the light moving up and down. After several minutes they went back into the car and left. Unexpectedly Anna became very sleepy and fell asleep almost immediately. Jacek then began to talk with his cousin and his last recollection was seen the lights of a truck ahead of him. He thinks he had fallen asleep. Soon they realized they were now 125km away from the original location where they had seen the lights. They were now at an isolated area near the border crossing at Olszyna. Not knowing what had happened Jacek turned the car around and soon noticed a strange old fashioned “car” with strange lights that looked old and neglected. Jacek then made a U-turn and drove toward Bolesawiec they then noticed that another car that been behind them had also stopped. As they passed by the car Anna noticed two strange “men” identical in appearance and wearing long black cloaks standing next to the vehicle. They stood completely motionless and resembled “twin brothers”.

Summary:  Veteran Experiencer/skywatcher Rich Giordano took the above footage of some kind of flying entity, something rare that he had never witnessed before. According to Giordano the object seemed to materialize right before his eyes as he was staring at its exact location during materialization. At some points in the video, the object seemed to change shape and other times it looks just like a person staring down at him. He felt very emotional in the first few moments as this “object” hovered for the first minute or two until he grabbed his camera. It then moved to the north for a half an hour and then moved west for the remaining 15minutes he could still see it. It was moving about the speed of someone walking.

Summary:  While on vacation the main witness, 15-year old Kamil B. and two other young friends, were about to build a bonfire near a fuel station in a wooded area and were searching the forest for kindling and wood. After collecting the necessary wood they returned to their camp and began working on the fire. It was dark but the flames lighted the surrounding area. Suddenly the main witness noticed at a distance of several meters away something resembling a light-colored plastic bag. It was white in color and was positioned next to a tree. Curious and not knowing what it was he approached it.
When he was circa 2 meters away he saw the face of a person that was hiding behind a tree. The head was only partially visible and was around 40cm above the ground.
The witness was stunned and even asked the entity who he was but received no answer. The head was peering from behind a tree at him and his colleagues. He called one of his friends and showed him the strange head. His friend also saw it and couldn’t explain what it was. The head was completely bald and white in color. They didn’t notice any ears or other details but the face looked as that of a human. It also had black contours around its eyes and mouth (as if painted). They attempted to get in contact with it but were quite terrified by the sight and even decided to leave the area but came to the conclusion that they should extinguish the fire first. The entity did not communicate and only appeared to blink its eyes. According to the witnesses it continued to play a game of hide and seek behind the tree. It behaved abnormally and the witnesses were convinced they were not witnessing something “normal”. The being didn’t react to anything they tried, words, gestures etc. Soon the witnesses extinguished the fire and when it became dark they noticed that the strange face had disappeared from sight. They then ran towards their homes that were located several hundred meters away. Kamil said that he heard the crackling of twigs when he was running on the path toward his home and was sure that the entity was following them. When they reached the village the witnesses noticed that the neighbor’s dogs were growling. The witnesses were very scared but their relatives did not believe their story.

He attempted to look at them more closely and they somehow seemed to resemble his parents. When he tried to make sure, the figures seemed to freeze in place and he was overcome with a horrible fear and felt forced to lie back down and close his eyes. The next day he asked his little brother if he had seen anything and he told him that he thought that their parents had been in the room. The witness then asked both his parents if they had been to their bedroom at any time of the night and they both said that they hadn’t been in the bedroom the entire night.

Summary: 9 UFO’s appeared and dissolved into nothing before my eyes In July and August 2004 I privy to a sight that has changed my thinking about UFO’s I was out at my local golf course having a lone hand of golf at approximately 3.00 pm when saw and object in the sky that looked like giant sombrero. It was just hanging there, about 30 deg up on the horizon. The brim was jet black in color and the crown was a cream color. I watched it for about 30 sec and I looked away for and instant and it was gone. There was not a single cloud in the sky on this day. I searched the sky but it was no where to be seen. There was just blue sky. In August the same year I was practicing golf again at around the same time, 3.00 pm when I was attracted by a flash in the cloudless blue sky. At first I couldn’t see anything, but then I saw a group of objects that I at first mistook for birds. They looked about the size of a dinner plate but as they descended and grew larger I could see that they were in fact discs. They were dull white in color and rising and falling as if they were riding a wave and going very slowly. They looked to be approximately 5 to 6 feet across. Estimating their true size was difficult as I had no idea how high they were. I counted 9 of them, and as they leveled out in a very ragged two abreast formation, one then turned and went away to the south west, but when it reached a certain point it just pure and simply dissolved into nothing. I was absolutely amazed at what I was seeing. I then turned my attention back to the others and focused on the next leading disc and it dissolved in the same manner. At first it began to go black at the front then turned into deep olive green and as it was turning at the same time I could just make out a bulge at the top before it dissolved into a cloud of black dots. Like pixels on a computer. There was no flashing lights or any kind of noise. And all the while their speed never varied, each one of them disappeared at the same point in the cloudless blue sky as silent as they came. The whole episode lasted for about two minutes. I found this site by accident and decided to tell someone about what I saw. I was very skeptical about the whole UFO scene, but not now.

Summary:  57-year old Katherine L. Jones and her boyfriend were in the front porch of her home located on a high ridge in the city watching what appeared to be dense fog approaching when the “fog” seemed to divide, forming a cylinder of bright light about 3 feet in front of them. They both stepped off the porch and approached the beam, both of them attempting to enter the cylinder of light but as they stepped forward, the beam moved back several feet. They continue to chase the beam around the yard but it would not allow them to “enter” it. When they turned away from the beam and walked away the beam followed them, staying close to their heels. Jones’s boyfriend continued to walk around the yard and the beam followed his movements but whenever he attempted to enter it, the beam would move away a few feet. At one point Katherine was able to peer inside the beam which contained a very bright shutter-like opening deep within the interior. When they stepped back into the porch they noticed the ground beneath the beam appeared to be bubbling with thick plasma like substance although no heat was felt. The incident lasted for about 10 minutes. The next day Katherine surveyed her yard for evidence but found nothing. The only thing odd she noticed was that the water level in her swimming pool had dropped almost a foot.

Summary:  As 14-year old Vitali Komeev guarded some cows in some open pastures near the village no more than 30 meters away from his location something moved. It was not a person or a bear, it was two meters tall, maybe a bit more, it had wide shoulders and was somewhat bent over. It was completely covered in brown hair, except for the palms of its hands, which were smooth like those of humans. The eyes were also human, but the nose was like that of an ape, pushed in, only two nostrils were to be seen, the being moved smoothly and silently. The teenager was very frightened and ran back to the village. On the way there he met forester Oleg Timoveev and two neighbors and told them what he had seen. The adults immediately responded to the location of the encounter and found clear footprints in the damp ground which were much bigger than that of a normal human footprint.

Summary:  Military maneuvers and exercises code-named “Shield of the Fatherland-2004” (Szhit Otechestva-2004) began in the forests of Belarus. A senior lieutenant named Dmitriy commander of a reconnaissance diversion group (RDG) was performing rear guard operations and was engaged in destroying targets pre-positioned there. On August 24 at 2200 they made camp. Two men code-named “Rainbow” and “Hedgehog” were posted for night duty watch. The group had decided to make camp 375 meters away from the village of Krepachi in the Brest region. The location was mixed forest, in a clearing with 2 large old oaks and a lake between them. The almost empty (dying?) village was not in any map and the nearest real inhabited place was the hamlet of Gorodiszhe. At 0308A they were awakened by a bright, but a monotonously spreading orange light. Their radio communication in their portable (Podsneshnik) radio remained intact. Dmitriy asked Rainbow if he had seen anything. Rainbow replied that he could see a plate-shaped craft about 27 meters from him hovering over the earth at an altitude of about 2.5m. Dmitriy then gave the command to take defensive positions and prepare the grenade launcher. After confirming that all his men were ready, Dmitriy took another man “Barkhan” and went on a reconnaissance patrol. The object was generally sauce-shaped with a truncated cone above. At close observation the object seemed metallic. The UFO emitted a beam of turquoise light from its center. Unexpectedly “Hedgehog” reported that he could see four figures approaching from the object, which he could not see them properly because of the tall grass concealing them. The men then turned on their laser rangefinder to infra red mode. The humanoid figures seemed very tall, but the men could not see them properly. Dmitriy noticed that the figures moved evenly as if robotic in nature. Seconds later the UFO quickly gained altitude, zooming out of sight beyond the clouds. According to the laser rangefinder the UFO speed was 2600 kilometers per hour. The humanoid figures then walked into different directions. Dmitriy did not order his men to follow them because that could lead to separating the group, which contradicted the defensive order. The figures seemed to walk through some high tension wires as if they were not there. Dmitriy could only hope that the humanoids and object quickly leave and that his men would not be harmed. After returning to their unit some of the men informed senior officers of what had taken place. The officers ordered the men to keep silence, in order to prevent them from being discharged from the Army under “psychological” reasons. He suggested that the men had been hallucinating as a result of the rigorous training exercises. Later KGB personnel interview the men and appeared to be glad that the men had not used their weapons against the “aliens” for fear of retaliation. A female resident of the village told Army investigators that spherical and disk-shaped objects were often observed in the location. The villagers had been pasturing cows in the glade where the UFO had descended and the men had camped, and reported that the cow’s milk production had dropped dramatically.

Summary:  On August 17 the main witness Lisa and two of her friends, Della and Sheila reported seeing mysterious lights reflecting and cavorting over the witness property. They also witnesses what appeared to be a solid object in the sky taking different positions across the sky, zipping from place to place. It was comprised of several lights and could be seen to rotate, having a white fog about it and at times would be comprised of 3 or 4 lights, but it was silent. Later they saw an object comprised of a triangular shaped light configuration come into view after the witnesses heard a distinct jet-like low dull roar or rumble. On the 19th, Lisa watched a huge luminescent white cylindrical shape, which she attempted to videotape. On the above date Lisa and her friend Sheila felt that there was a creature near the home. They reported seeing a small light come down in the field across the road some distance away, they sat around and waited to see what would happen next. A little while later Lisa heard a rustle and saw a bush move to the left, next she saw eyes or something reflecting light. Soon after seeing additional flickering lights descend towards the field, Sheila reported seeing a creature that was engaged in a rapid scurrying or running through the field across the road and into the immediate yard in front of the house. She could not discern with certainty whether it was 2 or 4 legged due to darkness, but felt it was walking upright and also felt herself to be keenly aware that there was a physical presence outside as she watched through the window. Sheila said that she could see a large white head but could not see the body since it sort of blended into the bush, but the eyes were reflecting the security light, like an animal looking at you from the woods. Lisa also reported seeing something land in the field and claimed she saw something running in the darkness. Whatever it was, it was running very fast and seemed to blend in with the environment. Sheila estimated the distance of between 20 to 25 ft from the window to the bush where the creature was seen. Sheila also reported other mysterious activity in the area including a very strange thunderstorm with continual rolling thunder and ferocious strobe-like lighting that hit the area on August 18.

Summary:  The witness was returning home from Campbellford and stopped to take some pictures of the scenery, which he did often. He didn’t notice anything unusual until he arrived home and examined the photos after printing them on his printer. He noticed something “weird” in one of the photos. Standing on one of the rocky outcrops was a strange winged creature, which has been examined by the witness and others and have not been able to explain it yet. (Unfortunately I have not seen the photo and there are no additional details on the supposed creature).

Summary:  12 years ago I was with my older brother (I was 19 at the time) when we experienced this light that I continue to think about regularly. We were at end of dirt road that is one corner of a good size cow field around this area (u.p. MI). We were outside just watching for bucks with our binos which we did somewhat regularly. I remember seeing a light appear maybe 25 30 yards in trees opposite side road of field. By this point it was dark and my first thought was flashlight since this light appeared few feet of the ground. The size was about a soccer ball and was the best i can describe the color of what a flashlight would appear after dark. Now this was my initial thought and initial thought only as I has yelled moderately Hello 2 times before realizing a few things at once. There’s was absolutely zero projected light from this solid round 360 degree ball of light. It was also fall and u cant take a step at night without leaves giving you away. It was silent, not to mention the moves this made was no man made light. I look at my brother as I realize what is happening. He has sheer terror on his face and i recall this is the point i froze in shock. The light was coming directly at us slowly hovering in what seemed like forever to get to us. I mean this light appeared on us on purpose and made many moves to get to a clear view of us. So this light finally makes it way to an opening in trees which is I kid you not maybe 10 feet from our faces! It was hovering directly above a burm made where there the was maybe a 5 foot opening in tree line. After getting to opening it stayed there for what seemed like 10 or 15 good seconds then suddenly disappeared without a sound. I mean not a single sound not even a cricket when this light appeared. It was amazing, yet I wish I would have went back for proof. Seeing is believing.

Summary:  The witness had just recently dozed off when something woke him up. He was completely paralyzed and unable to make any sound. He is completely terrified and awestruck. Three beings are standing over him, their large black eyes staring into his. He was completely paralyzed during the whole experience. The three beings looked very much like how modern day abduction testimonies depict the “grays”. They were roughly 4ft tall, maybe 5. They had thin, hairless bodies and gray skin. They had large oval shaped heads and large glossy black eyes. He couldn’t recall any other physical features. The witness had the impression that the beings were “intelligent” but not in a human way. They seemed completely indifferent to the fact that the witness, a caring sentient being, was absolutely scared and desperate. They were machine like, but he knew that they were intelligent. They were like predators that knew with absolute certainty that they would succeed in taking the prey. One of the beings reached out and grabbed his ankle. He did not fell it, but saw it. The 4ft tall, thin being, grabbed his ankle and started dragging him out of the room with incredible ease. This being was very strong, dragging the witness through the house as fluidly as one would drag a large stuffed toy animal behind us. He saw no signs of communication between the three aliens, nor any sounds. The three beings were still indifferent to his condition. They were cold and stoic. The terror and awe multiplied at this point, the witness could barely think, all he could do was wait and see where he was being taken. He was being dragged out by one ankle out his room and towards the living room with leads to the backyard. He noticed as he was being dragged there was a very bright light emanating from the direction he was being taken. The further he went the brighter it became. Until finally he reached the sliding glass door which leads to the backyard. His vision was completely engulfed in this bright light and he couldn’t make out any object or other beings. He has no further memory of the incident.
