- Confederation Park, Burnaby, B.C. Late 1930s UFO Sighting
-
-
- Date: Late 1930s
- Time: Summer afternoon.
-
- Location of Sighting: Confederation Park, Burnaby, B.C.
- Number of witnesses: 3
- Number of objects: 2
- Shape of objects: Round balls of fire.
-
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: A friend who is in
his late 70s told me this story today. He said that when he was 10 or 11
years old, he and two friends (now deceased) were playing in the bush in
Confederation Park in Burnaby, that would make it the summer of 1937 or
1938. He said he and his friends heard a roaring sound and he ran out of
the trees to Willingdon Avenue and saw two streaks of smoke in the sky
coming from the east parallel to the ground and at a fairly low altitude.
As the smoke trails got closer he saw two round balls of fire at the head
of the trails. Suddenly the two fireballs roared like a rocket straight
up at a ninety degree angle and disappeared into a clear blue sky. He said
that today he would compare them to jets, but of course there were no jets
back then. He still remembers the incident even after the amount of time
that has transpired.
-
- Thank you to the person for relating the sighting to
me.

- La Crescenta, California Saucer Shaped Craft To Screams
And Strange Creature
-
- Date: Late 1975
- Time: Approx: 4:00 p.m.
-
- Number of witnesses: 6
- Number of objects: 1
- Shape of objects: Thick saucer shaped.
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: This is mostly in
regards of the 1975 sighting/screams in Thousand Oaks, Ca. La Crescenta
is about forty miles south, and only about five or six miles from Jet Propulsion
Laboratories, which is in Pasadena Ca.
-
- I do not if these experiences have any bearing on the
family from Thousand Oaks, but here it is:
-
- I had a friend over the house late in 1975. I was
sixteen years old at the time, and we were outside talking, and looking
at a baseball game in progress across the street at the park. The
weather was clear, plenty of daylight left. Although honestly I did not
see this saucer shape appear, It was suddenly there, hovering over the
sky to the North of us. It is difficult for me to tell exactly how
high, or far away it was, but the UFO appeared huge.
-
- Excuse me, I mean HUGE! It stayed in the air for some
time, as we had time to observe it, I had time to run into the house and
get my mother, brother, and father to come out and look at it. It was
hovering over the park, between us and JPL. I remember that it had
some lights on the side, rotating around the surface of the craft. It
hung in the air, but was not totally motionless, as though it kept trying
to stabilize itself, kind of like it was on a gyro that wasn't functioning
properly. It stayed around for about two or three minutes, than tilted
and then left the area at a high rate of speed. Aside from the aforementioned
witnesses, I am not sure that anyone else had seen the object.
-
- Now, concerning the screaming that the folks in Thousand
Oaks that happened around the same time:
-
- We had some incidences of screaming around here about
that time, also. If memory serves correctly, it was just before the
above mentioned sighting. Crescenta valley is in a bowl shaped area,
created by the mountains to the north of Burbank, Ca. and the Angeles crest
forest north of that. We lived pretty much at the base of the Burbank
mountain. There is an aqueduct that was cut out in the early seventies,
for flood control. Across the flood control (which was fenced off) lies
the Crescenta Valley Park, which is directly across the street from my
parents house. There are night baseball games (little league) and
lights in the park.
-
- It was dark, not too late at night, and some friends
and I were sneaking a cigarette in the park, next to the flood control
trench when we heard a god-awful scream which reverberated off of the hill,
neither animal nor human, but it would be more to the animal side of noise. The
three of us about jumped out of our skins, and were trying to see across
the trench as to what could have made that particular noise. It may be
important to note that the lights of the baseball field had a hard time
penetrating this far towards the trench to the hills, and we could not
see where it had emanated from. We were in the midst of discussing
what had caused the ruckus, and noticed some spectators from the game wandering
over towards the trench, kind of angling away from us, so I knew we were
not the only ones to hear it. After awhile, these folks left back
to the game.
-
- Some time later, as we were still standing around, discussing
the incident, we heard another scream across the trench. This time,
we witnessed the strangest sight. What it appeared to be was some kind
of kangaroo/chupacabra looking animal about fifty yards away, towards the
base of the hill. It had to have been at least seven or eight feet tall,
we could see its legs and tail fine, but it was kind of hard to see a face,
as it fell within some shadows of light off the baseball field. We
looked at it, it looked at us, and I really thought some guy rented a Halloween
suit and was playing tricks on people. Our minds were changed however,
when it ran away. It took off going from zero to about forty miles an
hour in an instant. And it went straight into the hills. Straight
up the hill. We couldn't follow it for long, but were able to kind
of keep track of it by all of the noise it created beating through the
brush. I still think of this from time to time, and a kangaroo keeps
coming to mind.
-
- As a side note, when I was stationed in the army in Germany,
we were on patrol one night in the Black Forest region, late at night,
on a small game trail when the whole squad heard a scream which echoed
all over the place. No kidding, the hair on my arms stood up. As we only
had blanks for our rifles, we turned around and hightailed it out of there.
Here's the extra weird thing...Across the animal trail that we had passed
not five minutes before, there was a huge tree covering the trail. Needless
to say, nobody ran around it, we had so much adrenalin flowing we pretty
much climbed/jumped the fallen tree, and pretty much ran all of the way
back to the area of operation.
-
- Thank you to the witness for the fasinating report.

- Markham, Ontario A Light Down The Valley (Ravine) Frightening
Experience
-
- HBCC UFO Research Note: I wanted to add a short note
about this sighting as there were a number of reports that I have received
from different folks over unusual sightings for the same date and
around the same time in other areas in Ontario, main location for the UFO
sightings was Scarborough, Ontario.
-
- Date: August 4, 1977
- Time: 11:45 p.m.
-
- Location of Sighting: Markham, Ontario Canada.
- Number of witnesses: 5
- Number of objects: 1
- Shape of objects: White sphere.
-
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: Brian, I was listening
to the Rense show from last week and I realized that I had a sighting later
the same night that Paul I believe his name was had the West Hill sighting.
I lived in Markham due north of West Hill about 10 miles. I really did
not see as much as I physically experienced. I and 4 friends were going
home from the Roxy movie theatre after watching the 7:00 pm movie, and
it had just become dark. I decided to cut through the ravine next to the
main street Highway 48 going south toward Highway 7, also known as Wellington
Street. As I was walking on the path I saw what looked like a motorcycle
headlight except very bright down the ravine as I was making my way alone
along the path. My friends were all walking the long way around as they
were too freaked out to cut through the ravine at night. On the path there
was a pair of posts, like the old cable guard rail posts from a highway
guard rail with a chain across. I knew this was there and was very careful
in the dark to find it and carefully step over.
-
- About 10 feet past the chain is where I noticed the light
down the valley (ravine). I remember looking at the light for about 2 seconds,
and then I found myself on my face on the trail, as I got up there were
leaves falling from the trees that I could make out in the darkness,
I could just see them. The light was gone, I quickly made my way up to
the highway and my friends were not there so I ran in the direction that
they would have travelled and found them behind the beer store. They were
a little shaken and when I finally got them to tell me what they had seen,
they said a white meteor had come straight up the ravine just about tree
top level. I asked them where it hit, they told me it didn't. It just kept
going really fast.
-
- I don't know if this in any way corroborates Paul's story
but I never forgot Thursday the 4th August 1977.
-
- Additional Information Below:
-
- Cheers Brian, The answers to your questions are as follows.
-
- Question 1:
-
- You mentioned in your report that you saw the light in
the ravine. Was the light actually in the ravine or sitting just above
it ? I just wanted to be sure.
-
- The light was diffuse it was not direct more of an indication
through the trees. The light or whatever it was came over highway 7, now
there is a stream in the bottom of the ravine which goes through a culvert
under the highway. The reason that I mentioned this is because the elevation
of the road was about 40 feet above the bottom of the ravine where the
stream was.
-
- I could make out the culvert and see light in it and
through the trees the light was south and I would say was above the trees.
-
- Question 2:
-
- Also, roughly how far away were you from the light at
it's closest point?
-
- It went right over me, straight toward me and right over
top too fast for me to look up before it was gone.
-
- Question 3:
-
- Was any type of sound detected?
-
- No sound at all from the thing itself although I remember
a whoosh and my first though was that it had been a helicopter but I thought
instantly that there was no rotor or engine noise!
-
- Question 4:
-
- Or any lights on the object other than it being very
bright?
-
- I didn't see any although my friends just said that it
just looked like a light ball and they heard a whoosh.
-
- Question 5:
-
- Something else I found of great interest, but not 100%
sure as to what may or may not have happened. But you mentioned that you
were looking at the
- light for approx: 2 seconds, and then I found yourself
on your face on the trail. Now big question here, did you just trip, or
fall down, and this is why you found yourself face down. Or did something
else happened that may be related to the sighting event ?
-
- I remember that I was careful that I did not trip over
the chain across the trail (to stop cars coming in) as I knew it was there
and was careful to locate it. I don't remember tripping and I do remember
being really pticked off that I was face down and didn't know why. I went
back the next day to see if there was anything on the trail that I could
have tripped over.
-
- Question 6:
-
- I also was wondering if it was a windy night that day
? Reason why I ask is that you mentioned the leaves from the trees falling
down around you. If you
- understand where I am going here, in other words I am
wondering if there may have been interaction between you and the object.
-
- No I remember that it was a warm night and that there
was no wind to speak of not even a breeze it was a little eerie and maybe
that's why my friends would not come for the short cut I think that they
were a little freaked out. As far as interaction was concerned I am sure
that it knocked me down but I don't remember anything else. The weird thing
is that it must have displaced air because of the falling green leaves
and the whoosh sound.
-
- Regards.
-
- Thank you to the witness for the very interesting report.

- Puerto Rico UFO Hovers And Missing Time
-
- Date: 1996
- Time: 10:30 p.m.
-
-
- During 1996 I left for Puerto Rico with my family. While
I was there we witnessed many "strange" lights zooming around
the sky above us. One night I had decided to stay over at an aunts house.
There had been a party there and allot of the family was there and we had
all just had a large dinner. We were sitting outside in the driveway looking
up at the sky when we noticed something very odd. We were looking at what
appeared to be an orb like light approaching us at an alarming rate. As
it came closer, we could notice the different panels. It appeared to not
have any windows and it appeared to be one solid structure without any
openings. It was about 100 feet away from us. It was hovering over some
trees and didn't appear to make any sound whatsoever. We looked at it for
a good 10 seconds before it disappeared. It was gone so fast...I've never
told anyone about it... We had gone outside at about 10:30 at night, we
were only outside for what seemed to be 10 minutes. When we came back in,
it was 11:30 at night...To this day it has puzzled me and bothered me allot,
not so long afterwards I began to suffer from seizures and suffered from
cold sweats and heavy depression. So did several other members of the family.
I'm not really sure how to explain it, I can't really explain it actually.
I'm just fearful because I can't account for the missing time.
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.

- Rijeka, Croatia A Round Object With A White And Red Lights
-
- Date: November 13, 1996
- Time: 6:37 p.m.
-
- Rijeka, Croatia. First I must tell you that my English
is not too good, so forgive me for mistakes!
-
-
- The night was very clear with no clouds in the sky. I
was looking out my window when I saw a round object in the sky. It was
about 500 meters from me but I didn't see the details. I noticed a bright
strong white light in the middle of the object and two red lights on the
side. The object was very similar to the object Betty and Barney Hill saw
back in the 60's. Object was standing in same place for 2-3 seconds.
After that it went up at a very high speed. I am sure that it was an alien
space ship because nothing humans make can fly so fast in so many different
directions. And one more thing, after that sighting I started to have
very strange dreams, more, like nightmares, about some very strange looking
creature. Only thing I can remember from the dreams is a fear, and feeling
that I am not alone in the room
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.

- Egypt Two Massive UFOs Above The Pyramids
-
- Date: January 25, 2000
- Time: 5:05 p.m.
-
-
- I was in a meeting at my office in Mohandeseen, Giza
on January 25, 2000, when I received a call from my mother at 5:05 p.m.
She excitedly told me, "Omar, I see two massive UFOs above the pyramids.
They look just like the one I saw last summer in Alexandria. They're huge
and very bright." Before she finished her sentence, I ran to a window
that looks in the direction of the pyramids. My work mates thought I went
nuts, but they ran along with me. Five minutes later, after searching the
sky, we saw one about 10 km away. It was "massive" cigar shaped
bright orange craft moving at slow speed from northwest to southeast. It
was 45 degrees high and it flew past for about 35 seconds in the area between
the buildings opposite us. Regrettably, we have a huge building across
the street blocking our view of the pyramids, so we couldn't see the other
UFO.
-
- My mother and her driver were much more fortunate. She
parked on el-Muneeb Bridge, and had a clear view. She described them as
two massive "neon bars," each 30 meters long, (100 feet) coming
at slow speed from opposite directions meeting exactly above the second
pyramid. They paused above each other for a half a minute or so and then
continued moving in opposite directions. the UFOs were a beautiful sight
over the Gaza complex at sunset for 15 minutes. My mother, felt they resembled
a UFO that emitted white smoke, that she had seen in Alexandria four months
earlier. Omar further explained that strange things had bee happening to
him in recent days prior to the sighting. Omar states, "I called a
friend of mine, one of Egypt's top columnists, who at first thought I was
mad, but realized he had also seen them when he flew in from Rome. He wrote
about what he saw in four episodes in his weekly column in "Al-ahram."

- Thank you to the witness for relating this story.

- Manorville, New York Pulsating Lights
-
- Date: Between 2004 and 2006
- Time: Evening.
-
-
- Hi Brian I just sent you a sighting 2 months ago , but
now I am writing to let you know that the "pulsating lights"
occur regularly over the east coast. I know I saw them numerous times between
2004 and 2006 when I lived in Manorville, NY. I can confirm just what
those reports say as I saw them with binoculars about 5 times per month
during that period. Nobody ever thinks of them as significant because
there is so much air traffic and they can be inconspicuous. Yet myself
and someone with whom I worked would watch them regularly. To my knowledge
they were first reported by Bill Hamilton on the Jeff Rense show. What
you see is like a shimmering star that changes colors, in sequence red
yellow amber or white repeated quickly. Several times I tried to focus
my telescope on them but I could never get a clear image in it - they appeared
to be white balls of light.
-
- Yet in binoculars it appeared solid and seemed to rotate
in color sequence. Everybody tried to tell us that they are satellites
but satellites don't move away closer, change position, and wink out. Sometimes
they appear close a mile or two away - other times they looked as if the
were as far as the horizon. the changeable nature they exhibit always
made me doubt they were true UFOs, but I have since read in the internet
reporting websites so many similar reports that I'm sure its something
strange. Please let those reporting these pulsing lights know that many
of us who watch the skies see them. Thanks again for being in the UFO field.
Sincerely.
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.

- Time: 8:26 p.m.
-
-
- Hi Brian, I thought you may be interested in this
UFO photo that I took on 8-12-2006 at 8:26 pm.when I took this photo I
saw a round white light traveling real slow through the night sky. when
I down loaded it this came out. there are 8 star like objects,almost in
u-shape .there is no way this can be stars, not with a 4 megapixal camera.take
care.
-
- PS - Feel free to post this photo, and info.
-
- Additional Information Below:
-
- Hi Brian, I didn't use contrast to lighten up photo just
original. There were no aircraft near, and no NAV lights of any kind seen.
There was no sound to the object. I really can't remember which direction
it was traveling from and too. It looked like it stopped for a few seconds
then continued on. The UFO made sharp right and left turn almost like a
curve, as I remember, to change it's own direction. Luke AFB is southwest
of me, can't remember if it was headed that way. I saw it in the night
sky for 3 or 4 minutes. Talk to you later.

- Warwick, New York A Bright Red Pulsing Light
-
- Date: February 10, 2007
- Time: Approx: 7:00 p.m.
-
- Location of Sighting: West
- Number of witnesses: 4
- Number of objects: 1
- Shape of objects: N/A
-
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: At around 7:00 eastern
on Saturday, February 10, 2007, my mother urged me to take a look out on
my back porch to see a mysterious object in the sky. It was a very chilly
night so I put on a coat and went outside. Immediately I can see the object
that she was referring to, a bright red pulsing light just over the horizon
in a westward direction. At first glance the object seemed to be a
plane flying toward us because there was no movement from right to left. The
light was way too bright to be a star. The light also seemed too bright
to be a plane or a helicopter because I was viewing this object from
a great distance away. It didn't get any bigger or any smaller as
would be the case if a plane was flying toward or away from me. Whatever
this light was it remained quite still. After approximately 15 minutes
of viewing this object it suddenly turned off. Maybe one minute passed
and it turned on again and remained completely still yet again. I viewed
this object for perhaps another 20 minutes until if finally disappeared.
Has anybody else in New York or close to New York (Northern Jersey, eastern
Pennsylvania) seen anything remotely similar to what I described ?
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.

- Orange Springs, Florida Circular Craft With A Row Of
Lights
-
- Date: February 19, 2007
- Time: 8:30-8:40 p.m.
-
-
- Location of Sighting: NE 125th Street Orange Springs Florida.
- Number of witnesses: 2
- Number of objects: 1
- Shape of objects: Almost a circular object at the bottom,
had a row of small bunches of lights in a line.
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: It was hovering above
the trees in the distance by the dirt power-line road we were heading towards.
It kind of looked like a water tower with a row of lights at the bottom
of the circular part. (the tower is where water is held)
-
- When we started slowing down and I turned my bright headlights
on, it was then the lights on the object got dim, making the circular
part look almost transparent. But the outline of the circle shape and the
lights on it were still visible. By then we had stopped the car, we were
in shock !
-
- I know there is not, and never has been a water tower
there. Then the lights grew very bright, not over us but in the distance.
Then it seemed as if the object got closer. After that I am not sure, as
I was facing behind me. As my boyfriend watched the object, I floored the
car in reverse to get off that road and back in my Mom's driveway. I then
got my family members to drive to the end of her driveway where it meets
the road. I was hoping half heartedly they would see it as well.
-
- While I also hoped it was gone as I was scared,
I hoped the family was able to view the craft. The object was
indeed gone, or not visible. There were no lights there, no stars in that
vicinity, nothing ! Once we left the road it was visible, but we left
to seek help, when we brought the family members to look, it must
have vanished.
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.

- Chico, California 25 To 35 Object Witnessed
-
- Date: February 20, 2007
- Time: Approx: 8:50 a.m.
-
- Location of Sighting: My residence.
- Number of witnesses: 1
- Number of objects: 25-35
- Shape of objects: Orb-like.
-
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: I had just slipped
some letters into the mail box and I was walking back to my door,
facing NW. I thought to look up into the sky. There were these glistening,
shimmering white orbs all travelling at the same speed, in a distinct potpourri
(for lack of a better word) type formation. The crafts were maybe one half
to one mile away. That is only a guess. The craft seemed to be travelling
straight up Cohasset road, making a B-line towards the Chico airport. I'm
48 years old and I have seen many groups of migrating birds in that time,
but I really don't think these UFOs were birds as they really
seemed to be under 'cruise-control like' power.
