- Ghost In Our House
-
- We had a ghost in our house when I was young; he normally
took the form of a man from the 30's era or so, he had a pin-striped suit
and a straw hat. My brother saw him more frequently than anyone else (my
older brother) though my mom and dad both admitted to seeing him or having
strange things happen around the house. We weren't the only home in this
small town that saw him. Some of our neighbors (especially the older folks)
admitted to seeing him either in the neighborhood or in their homes. He
seemed harmless. They called him the Traveling Man cause it was generally
believed that he was the ghost of a traveling salesman. My oldest brother
(I am the youngest of 3) never really told me about an strange experiences
though, just the middle brother and my parents. My daughter hasn't told
me about any strange
- things happening. She just seems to have had the normal
childhood fears of the dark, etc.

- San Antonio, Texas Alien Encounter ?
-
- Message: My name is (removed), I live in San Antonio,
TX, and I have a couple of things to report. It is rather strange cause
I really wasn't intending to make a report I was just curious about your
site. However, I now feel compelled to report these strange happenings
especially since I have only just read a bunch of stories and seen photos
of 'scoop' marks... And I have an unexplained scar on my foot.
-
- Anyway, to get to it: Years ago while a child in a small
South Texas town, I somehow obtained an A-shaped (or triangle-shaped) scar
on the top of my right foot (near the ankle). I remember impressions and
'feelings' more than any actual event concerning the scar. I remember asking
my mother about it once and she said it must be a birthmark but it doesn't
look like any birthmark I have ever seen... I even remember arguing with
her (I was probably younger than 8 or so) about it saying that the 'ant'
did it. When I think back, I have a feeling or impression of a large "ant"
face. A gray perhaps?
-
- At any rate, it is an upside down "A" shape
that is raised like a scar. The reason I say "A" as opposed to
"triangle" is that the center is a hollow "triangle"
(so a raised triangle surrounding a hollow triangle). I have had it for
as long as I can remember but to this day it is somewhat uncomfortable
if I press on it. I am wondering if maybe I was studied and "marked"
in some way like you here about from time to time.
-
- Throughout my childhood I was near terrified of the dark.
I guess that isn't strange but I used to have vivid dreams and even see
"ghosts" or something in the darkness of the room. As I grew
older I began to experience night terrors, those situations where you wake
up but you can't come to full consciousness and there is a terrible weight
on your chest and a feeling of impending doom or death (and it is an absolute
certainty that something is approaching- something is JUST outside the
door).
-
- After one particular night terror, I woke fully (and
trembling) and started back to bed. Once there I had a CLEAR memory of
two large but squat creatures dressed in dark clothing walking into my
room followed by a tall gray. I think I dreamt it while I was in and out
of my night terror, I don't know.
-
- Now on to the sighting. I don't recall a good deal of
it. For some reason my whole memory of it is fuzzy. I drove north on Interstate
10 from San Antonio, turned at Comfort, TX., on my way via back roads to
my parent's place in Centerpoint, TX. My 3 year old daughter was with me.
I am not sure what time of the year it was (which to me is one of the strangest
things about this sighting- I put it out of my mind fairly quickly after
experiencing it).
-
- Anyway, I do remember that it was late afternoon/early
evening. The sun hadn't quite started going down yet. They sky was really
blue and their were few clouds (once again, certain things I DO remember).
As we drove along behind a lady in a car (my daughter in the front seat
of my truck) I suddenly saw sparks in the sky through my windshield. At
the same time, the lady in front of my suddenly slammed on her brakes and
pulled over. I pulled over as well (behind her) and was about to get out
and ask her what was wrong when I saw her pointing up into the sky (we
were headed roughly west and she was pointing up and slightly to the northwest).
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.

- Toronto, Ontario Cylindrical Objects
-
- Date: June 26, 2004
- Time: 1:45 p.m.
-
- Location of Sighting: Vicinity of Markham Road and Lawrence
Ave.
- Number of witnesses: 2
- Number of objects: 2
- Shape of objects: Cylindrical
-
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: Relaxing in my in-laws
backyard on a lawn chair watching my three children play, I leaned back
and gazed up at a very clear blue sky adorned with clusters of white clouds.
I noticed a large off-white cylinder-type shape steadily moving towards
the east at a constant rate of velocity. Periodically it would fly through
grouped clouds and then re-emerge. I watched it until it vanished off in
the distance some 90 or so seconds later. Unlike commercial aircraft, this
object emitted no sound, exhaust or vapor trail. Based on my estimation
of its altitude it appeared to be five to 6 times the length and width
of a typical 747.
-
- Approximately 30 minutes later, my brother in-law pointed
out a small but distinct silver-grey disk-like object hovering towards
the south-east. This second object was not moving in any direction, nor
was it shrouded in cloud. The second sighting lasted approximately 2 minutes
and merely vanished !
-
- Over the years I have looked up and seen hundreds if
not thousands of conventional aircraft. What I saw on that clear June day
was nothing short of compelling. These two sightings were not conventional
aircraft.
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.

- Kaufman County, Texas Brilliant High Flyer (Video/Pictures)
-
- Date: September 16, 2004
- Time: Approx: 6:00 p.m.
-
- I caught another High Flyer yesterday, (day light) I've
been after him for about two weeks now. Where I usually set up just about
the same time I'll look up and there he is. I got about 2 or 3 seconds
of him about six days ago and he went behind a tree and I lost him. I saw
him sooner yesterday and got 20 or 30 seconds before he went behind the
tree.
-
- Additional Information:
-
- I've been trying to capture this object I've been seeing
for about two weeks now. I call it the High Flyer because it's probably
six or more miles up. I haven't heard a noise from it, but have seen it
luckily about three times. It comes over close to the same time (about
6:00pm) or at least that's when I've been seeing it. On 09-10-04,I captured
about 5 or 6 seconds of it, and on 09-16-04, I finally got about 20 or
30 seconds of it. I guess because of all the hurricanes, we've been having
mostly clear days here, which is very unusual for here. Anyway this thing
comes from the northeast going southwest every time I've seen it. With
the naked eye it looks like a point of light in the blue sky. It moves
pretty fast, I'd guess about 5 or 6 hundred miles per hour. It doesn't
appear to have wings that I can see. I'm sending you a clip of it to see
what you think

- Kaufman County, Texas Object And Small Aircraft
-
- Date: September 17, 2004
- Time: Between 7:30 p.m. and 8:00 p.m.
-
- Hi Brian
-
- This is another one I caught between 7:30 and 8:00 p.m.
on 09-17-04. I was taping this small plane when I noticed this orb either
was coming down or going west, I really couldn't tell. This was very unusual
to capture a white orb this late in the evening that was moving. It was
mostly clear this evening with lots of planes and things in the sky, a
very good day for skywatching here. I'm sending you a clip of it for your
analysis.

- Bettles, Alaska Humming Form UFO
-
-
- Date: September 17, 2004
- Time: 2:30 a.m.
-
- Witness' narrative:
-
- "I live in a remote town in northern Alaska. After
having dinner at a friend I went home. My place is located about two mile
south of town. There is a airport located there and a rotating beacon for
the airport. I have lived here for nearly thirty years. Being located away
from town it is extremely quite with very little noise. I went to sleep
around 11:00PM. I was awaken by a humming sound that was not real loud,
almost like a fluorescent lamp with a bad ballast. I thought it was my
inverted down
- stairs and got up to see if something was wrong. As I
was laying in bed I could see the light from the airport beacon flashing
in the north window. I sat up and noticed red and white lights flashing
on the trees thru the east window. I thought it might be some of the locals
stuck in my driveway and the red and white lights were from the rear of
the vehicle. I then got
- out of bed to look out the window facing my driveway.
-
- I never even looked down as I immediately seen the source
of the lights. Just above the tree top was an object just hanging there
not moving. My best estimate it was about 20 to 30 feet across and about
6 to 8 feet thick. It was more or less disk shaped from what I could tell.
The upper part of the object was dark while the bottom had red and white
lights that flashed in no apparent pattern but random. I stepped back from
the window and grabbed the phone to attempt to call the local weather service
as they were staffed 24 hours a day. I was able to get someone and told
them to look towards my house
- and see if they could see what I was seeing. Due to the
trees in his area he was not able to see my house. I kept thinking to myself
that this can't be happening, this is not real. After maybe a minute on
the phone I was becoming desperate to get someone to see this and not just
me.
-
- I then contacted another person I thought might be able
to see my place. Again due to the trees surrounding his place he could
not see my place. By now I had become very disturbed or a better word I
was scared. I stood in the middle of the room not know what to do. It must
have been two minutes by now and the object began to move toward the house.
As it passed above the house it again stopped. It seemed to just stay there
for a long time then suddenly there was an extremely bright white light
that scanned the entire yard and house three or four times. It stopped
and didn't move for a few seconds and then started moving to the south
slowly. I didn't move till I could no longer see any lights outside. I
then informed the other party that if he did not hear from me in two minutes
to come looking. I then dressed grabbed a firearm and flashlight and went
down stairs. I went outside looking for it but it was gone. I then quickly
drove to town and stayed at the weather station till morning light."
-
- Investigator's note:
-
- The object's size, as judged by the witnesses from its
movement over nearby trees, was 20-30 feet by 6-8 feet, and was within
50 feet of the witness. It was disc-shaped, dark on top and illuminated
on the bottom. The witness was contacted on September 20, 2004, and was
in good spirits but still shaken by the event. "I just keep thinking
It couldn't have been real. Things like this don't exist.'"

- Thank you to Chris Rutkowski for this report.

- Denver, Colorado Numerous Objects
-
- Date: September 17, 2004
- Time: 4:30 p.m.
-
- About 4:30 PM yesterday (17th) I needed a break from
the computer and went outside. I noticed a contrail to the West, waited
a bit to see if it would turn into a chemtrail. At this time it was about
6 inches long. It was high and I couldn't really make out the plane, as
the sun was nearby. All of the sudden the contrail went "poof"
and disappeared. I thought the plane had too, but as I watched the plane
did appear and fly high overhead. It was white and had a military look
about it, no contrail. As I watched it pass nearly overhead, I all of a
sudden noticed something round and shiny approaching closely from the North.
It was at about the height that planes are taking off from nearby Denver
International Airport as they go over my house. This ball seemed to turning
over and over, I am not sure if it was a ball or a disk. As it rolled around
it would flash light from the western sun. it passed directly over head
and then one at a time 2 more appeared. The 3 of them appeared to be playing
with each other, changing directions many times. I was entertained for
about 5 minutes. They could have be morphing, but I think they were just
rolling about. That is why I am not sure of the exact shape. But it was
delightful to watch.

- Chandler, Arizona Weather Balloon Spotted
-
- Date: September 17, 2004
- Time: 9:00 a.m.
-
- Brian, I work for (removed) at their Chandler, AZ facility.
One of the engineers I work with spotted the weather balloon at sunrise
when it took on an eerie glow. I was on my way back from my morning break
at about 9:00 a.m., when he pointed the balloon out to me. We looked at
it for a few minutes and went on to our regular duties when I had an idea.
I called the engineer to ask if he could get a hold of the digital camera
we use to document equipment changes and set ups when he told me that he
had found out it was a weather balloon launched by ASU! Your story states
that it was launched from New Mexico. Seems like there was a lot of confusion
at the time. Incidentally, I heard on the news last night that a hurricane
was moving into the Baja area and were are expecting rain here today and
Sunday. I wonder if the "calm before the storm contributed to the
balloons lack of movement. Thanks for the story and photos.

- Oshawa, Ontario Round Circle Of Light
-
- Date: September 20, 2004
- Time: 10:30 to 10:45 p.m.
-
- Location of Sighting: In Oshawa at the lake park.
- Number of witnesses: 2
- Number of objects: 1
- Shape of objects: round circle of light centre was blue
sky, reminded me of what a solar eclipse looks like at its peak with the
outer ring of light.
-
- Full Description of event/sighting: My mother and I were
watching a small plane go by and head back north to the airport. While
we were looking up but turned to look south east we saw this circle of
light, blue sky in the centre. We took pictures and watched with binoculars.
It was quite far but with the binoculars the circle was quite bright,
reminding me of a solar eclipse. We watched for close to 15 minutes as
it moved slowly across the sky to the east and then disappeared. There
was a trail of exhaust from the small plane. The circle was near the exhaust
but didn't lose its shape like the exhaust. I have four pictures with
the circle. It may be nothing but I'm curious as to what it was.
-
- Thank you to the witness for the report.
