My friends and I saw one the night I am writing this (in the later hours of November 30 and the early early morning of December 1st. 2024). We live in southern Arizona and are all staying the night st one friends house for a birthday party. Her house is known between all of us as the "haunted house" since we're always experiencing weird things there. But this time, right after the sun had set, we were sitting on the porch in the backyard when one of us yelled and pointed at the chest-high brick fence, saying that she just saw a bald white human head poke itself over the fence. Two of us immediately ran over and looked over the fence to see nothing. We laughed that off, but it was the first sighting of the night. We hung out outside a little longer until we decided to check over the fence again, and while we were doing so, we heard scuttering on the outside of the fence out of view. We joked about it and just went inside instead. Skip to a while later we went outside again and almost right away someone saw a head pop up around another fence, again we all thought It was nothing, but more of us started seeing a head, hands, and part of a back. At that point we were scared as hell and started going back inside when one friend STAYED BACK AND SCARED THE LIVING SHIT OIT OF US, but she was just standing and looking, we stayed there for a while (now with one friend holding a broom, they lost their broom privileges soon after) and we kept seeing small things of white and some of the same things from before. Our other friends (previously inside) came out again SCARING THE SHIT OUT OF US and we all started talking about things we saw and what it could be when we kept seeing things. And eventually 2 people heard a growling and it was very clear they both weren't faking and we all ran inside and started panicking, trying to reason with the fact there was a skinny bald white man crawling outside. We eventually found this and thank goodness because believe it or not it made us all feel much better. This was our story. Believe it or not

Do you think it's real or are we just crazy teenagers?

In 1917, three shepherd children in Fatima, Portugal, claimed to witness a radiant “Lady” who appeared over six months, delivering cryptic messages and revealing the “Three Secrets of Fatima.” On October 13, tens of thousands reported the “Miracle of the Sun”—a spinning, colorful orb in the sky that some believe wasn’t the sun at all, but a UFO displaying advanced technology.

The Three Secrets

1.	A Vision of Hell: A fiery realm of torment and lost souls.
2.	A World War II Prophecy: A warning to consecrate Russia to prevent conflict.
3.	A Hidden Vision: A “bishop in white” under attack, partially disclosed in 2000, with lingering suspicions of withheld details.

Competing Theories

1.	UFO Hypothesis: The “Lady” was an extraterrestrial being, and the “sun” was an advanced spacecraft.
2.	Religious Explanation: The Catholic Church declared it a miracle, identifying the Lady as Mary, Mother of Jesus.
3.	Optical Illusion: A natural phenomenon or mass hallucination.
4.	Manipulation: A Church-controlled narrative to maintain authority, isolating the children to prevent alternative interpretations.

Was the Fatima event a visit from beyond the stars, divine intervention, or a carefully crafted manipulation?

This happened three years ago. It was December 26th and me and my sister had just visited our grandparents who live at a farm in remote Finnish countryside. It was not particularly late, perhaps around seven in the evening, but this being the north, the road was pitch black and there were no streetlights.

My sister was focused on driving carefully, as you never knew when a deer might jump out on the road, but I was looking around at the side of the road which was only lit by the headlights of the car. Suddenly, I saw a shape of a slightly unnaturally tall man standing perfectly still at the side of the road, simply staring blankly ahead while remaining still. The humanoid figure seemed to pay no attention to us or the car.

The very moment I saw the humanoid figure, my lizard brain sensed danger, I almost jumped on my seat, and my heart started beating extremely rapidly. I had never experienced that sort of sudden visceral fear before and my sudden reaction freaked out my sister who was driving. I quickly looked back and the figure was still there, but very quickly it became too dark to see.

This was a very remote road with multiple kilometres to the nearest farms and there were no street lights. In theory it is not impossible for a tall person to have been walking in the area and stopping to let the car pass, but this was but there were no houses anywhere close, it was a pitch dark road, and the temperatures were freezing. The way the humanoid was just blankly staring ahead was also very unnatural.

I don't know what I saw, but it reminded me of Finnish and Scandinavian folk lore and a creature called "nuuttipukki" or "kekripukki", which resembles a northern Scandinavian version of Krampus. The season would match. However, while I didn't see the humanoid for very long, it did not seem very goat-like, although it did seem to be around two metres tall. I haven't heard of stories about Skinwalkers in this part of the world, but I can't rule that out either.

I had a really terrible day today. Not to get into it but I went to my BF's house once he got off work for some comfort and not be alone lol. I was meaning to leave his house around midnight but I ended up taking a little nap and waking up at 2:00 a.m. I have things to do tomorrow so this was not in the plan and I walked home which was about 3/4 of a mile from his house. I don't want to give away the exact location but this was not far from University of Cincinnati, and I've seen a lot of strange things walking home late at night but never felt in danger usually. I was about halfway home and noticed this person (? Lol) walking in front of me pretty erratically. You can kind of see in this picture the feet and they were definitely what I would call shuffling, not walking. Most of the buildings in this area are cookie cutter so I tried to keep about 1 to 2 buildings distance between us because for some reason in the back of my head my subconscious told me not to pass this person. They were going slower than me so I had to slow down. A guy walking his dog was between us at one point and looked at whatever this was and then looked at me, who was low-key watching YouTube videos while walking home and his reaction made me kind of pay attention for real as to what this person was lol. He was looking at me like WTF basically 🤣😭 That was about five buildings away from mine. I kept my distance but once I got to my building something told me to take a picture. This is lit entirely by the street lights and when I opened my camera 1x made it look way farther away so I zoomed in. Upon zooming in is when I noticed the head shape, And I got a deep overwhelming feeling of dread as I snapped this 😭 any ideas? I ran into my building's side door bc it literally felt surreal lol and I can't stop thinking about it. A friend told me to post here so I am on a throwaway

Sometime before 7 PM, on the evening of February 23, 1975, two grade-school boys, Masato Kawano and Katsuhiro Yamahata, were roller skating near the Hinode Housing Estate in Kamimachi, Kōfu, Yamanashi, Japan, when they noticed a pair of “glittering,” orange UFOs frolicking in the sky above. The enthralled boys stared in awe as the larger of the two objects broke off and flew toward Mt. Atago, while the smaller one slowly descended to the ground, landing amongst the crops of a vineyard behind the estate. The boys later stated that the strange aerial objects emitted an odd crackling or “ticking” sound, not unlike that of a Geiger counter.

It goes without saying that the curious youngsters wasted no time in removing their skates and charging into the vineyard in order to get a better look at this now earthbound object. As the two 2nd Graders approached the formerly orange “space craft" they saw that it was actually a domed, silverish disc, which stood approximately 7-feet high and was almost 15-feet in diameter. This classically shaped flying saucer was perched on “three ball-shaped legs” and had what the children described as “strange characters” embossed on the metallic surface of its hull. While inspecting the craft, both Kawano and Yamahata were astounded — and no doubt a bit frightened — to see a hatch open on the side of the craft and a ladder automatically extending down to the ground below. The boys watched in stunned silence as a bizarre humanoid creature disembarked from the ship. It was at that moment that the boys noticed another — smaller, though similar looking — humanoid that remained inside the control room. Kawano and Yamahata reported that the first creature was long-armed, almost 4-feet tall and was clad in a “glowing” or reflective silver uniform.

https://preview.redd.it/gend2i9r693e1.jpg?width=180&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2d12cf709c5c3f795cd39f99a16f45ab1967bc6e

Unlike the Kinnula Humanoid — which was clad head to foot in a deep sea diver-like, green suit — the Kofu entity’s skin was described as being dark brown and covered in wrinkles so dense that they obscured any noticeable features; save three, two-inch long, metal “fangs.” While the silvery fangs are a new twist, the wrinkly skin might ring a bell for those who have heard of the Pascagoula Elephant Men. This strange alien sightseer apparently began to explore the terrain, seemingly oblivious to the enthralled duo staring at it. That was until it abruptly turned and placed one of its “hands” on Yamahata’s shoulder, patting him twice and uttering a series of sounds that sounded to the boys: “like a tape recorder running backwards.” At this point Yamahata collapsed to the ground, paralyzed.

Although his friend believed that this was caused by fear, anyone familiar with so-called close encounters of the 3rd kind can attest that human beings are often placed in a state of almost suspended animation by extra-terrestrial visitors in, what one must assume, is an effort to prevent them from hurting themselves or anyone else. As soon as Yamahata dropped, Kawano — exhibiting a commendable bout of courage for one so young — rapidly pulled his friend up onto his shoulders and lugged him away from these vampiric alien assailants as swiftly as possible. Upon returning home, the now almost hysterical boys immediately informed their mothers about this bizarre close encounter. Their curious — yet almost certainly incredulous — mothers followed their clearly perturbed sons to the back of the Hinode Housing Estate, where, much to their shock, they confirmed seeing an orange light pulsating in the vineyard. This odd light show continued for five minutes. Before the boys could convince their mothers to investigate the strange craft at a closer range, the UFO launched with a burst of light so brilliant the eyewitnesses were compelled to avert their eyes.

It should be noted that while Yamahata and Kawano were the only ones to have actually seen the aliens, their classmate — 8-year-old, Ichiro Minegishi — also reported that he saw a shining object flying toward the Hinode Housing Estate while he was riding in a car with his parents near the Kōfu Bypass, approximately one half-hour before the boys claimed to have discovered the UFO. The following day, Kawano and Yamahata had a captivated audience of students and teachers at the Yamashiro Elementary School, as they drew pictures and retold the harrowing tale of their alien encounter. It wasn’t long before the buzz enveloped the entire school and the educational authorities — with what, at least in the 21st Century, seems to be uncharacteristic open-mindedness — decided that they would inspect the area for themselves.

The school officials arrived armed with whatever gear they could get hold of and immediately noticed that two solid concrete posts had been “pushed over” at the landing site. It was determined that the boys would have been unable to accomplish this task of ostensibly intergalactic vandalism on their own. This investigative team also found what they referred to as “landing traces” as well as a ring pattern in the soil near the broken concrete posts where the UFO landed. One schoolteacher even claimed to have discovered radioactivity within the circular patch. Following the event, both boys were questioned in depth by their parents, their schoolmaster, Nobuyoshi Kaneko, and noted UFO investigator Masaru Mori — their stories remained alarmingly consistent.

Unsurprisingly, the authorities of the Civil Aviation Bureau of the Transportation Ministry claimed that the UFO was nothing more than the lights of a YS-11 propeller plane, which often flew at an altitude of a thousand meters and was visible to the naked eye. They apparently reserved comment as to whether or not this aircraft could also assume the form of small, pointy eared, fanged humanoids.

This happened in Connecticut United states in the year 2008 i think.

I actually saw this thing twice. The first time i saw it it was at night. For context when i was little i used to always stare out the window at night that faced a wooded grove that was about 100 yards or so away from the house and fall asleep staring out the window due to how peaceful the night was in the woods.

So one night when i was about 8-9 years old im staring out the window when suddenly i notice two yellow lights in the woods. At first i was confused thinking that a car was somehow in a tree in. But as i stared more the yellow lights dissapeared and then reappeared in the same spot almost like blinking eyes. As my groggy brain took a closer look at the lights i started noticing other odd things like how the tree these lights were showing up in was a little thicker than i remembered and how there was a giant wolf head in the tree and that the yellow lights alligned with the head to be its eyes. This is when i was getting nervous and i bumped my head on the window accidentaly as i was backing away.

Well, as soon as my head hit the window. The wolf head turned suddenly towards my window and the rest of the creatures body started emerging from behind the tree. The body was hard to see at first because it was jet black and perfectly blended into the shadows. But now it was stepping out into the moonlight and i was freaking out because this wolf was on two legs. And the top of this wolfs head was a good 10 feet off the ground. The wolf stayed in the treeline but was still very much visable from my window and i could tell that it knew exactly where i was even though there were no lights on outside for it to see me with. By this point i had seen it more than enough so i quickly slammed the curtins shut and hid under my covers that whole night waiting to hear it clawing at the window to get me (fortunately this didnt happen) and i stayed burried under the covers until my alarm clock went off the next morning. I never told anyone about it because although i saw it myself i still couldnt beleve that it had happened.

The second encounter happened 12 years later durring a 4th of july celebration. Me and my dad were setting off fireworks in the back yard to celebrate and when we were done with the firework show as my dad and i were packing up for the night i saw the same pitch black wolf head peaking out from behind the shed with the same glowing yellow eyes. The head was absolutely massive. It was every bit the size of the 3 foot wide window on that side of the house. When it saw me staring at it it quickly ducked its head back behind the shed. I told my dad that there was a big dog back there and he chalked it up to coyotes. Well if it was a coyote then how did it manage to stand on two feet and how did its face take up the entirety of a 3 foot window? I dont know for sure what i saw but it matches descriptions that have been given for dogmen by other supposed witnesses so until i see otherwise im gonna say that what i saw was a dogman. It was terrifying to see both times and i never again want to see it or anything like it.

Edit: forgot to put the date and location sorry

https://preview.redd.it/bl9fhphtwv2e1.jpg?width=250&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c7475ba1b31b1918e910c4a35ecee96e4f43a9db

In what may be the most bizarre extraterrestrial encounter ever reported, dozens of eyewitnesses claimed that in the autumn of 1989, a trio of three-eyed aliens — along with their mechanical companion — landed and attacked a pair of teens in a Russian park. The Russian city of Voronezh is an industrial hub located about 300 miles from Moscow. The city has a population of nearly one million and hardly seems like the kind of isolated region that is ordinarily associated with strange alien encounters, yet on the evening of September 27, 1989, at about 6:30 pm., it became the host of what strikes many as being one of the most unusual, not to mention horrifying, encounters with creatures ever recorded. Eyewitnesses reported that on the evening in question a glowing, deep red, ovoid object — which they estimated to be approximately 45-feet wide and 18-feet high — circled above an area known as Levoberezhniy’s park. Witnesses swore that the “vehicle” hovered less than 40-feet above ground, close enough to disturb the grass below. Then, just as suddenly as it had arrived, the UFO soared away, leaving the eyewitnesses perplexed and no doubt more than a little relieved.

https://preview.redd.it/e2jq2o9wwv2e1.jpg?width=220&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d040f69aee1d7f272c9e54b21dfeec2bbda15493

That was until the strange craft returned just minutes later. It hovered near a group of grade-school children; including Vasya Surin, Julia Sholokhova, Lena Sarokina, Alyosha Nikonov and Vova Startsev – who were engaged in a soccer match. But it wasn’t only children who saw the UFO. It was also spotted by 35 to 40 adults who were waiting at a nearby bus stop on Poutiline St. Both the kids and adults were awed by the spectacle before them and utterly unprepared for what they were about to see next.

According to eyewitness accounts, a hatch on the underside of the still hovering craft opened to reveal an odd, long-armed, neck-less, thick-set, 9-foot tall entity with a small, knob-like head. The creature was clad in a silver jumpsuit with bronze boots and was so large it appeared to fill the hatch opening. As if the creature’s immensity wasn’t disturbing enough, eyewitnesses claimed that there were three luminous eyes wedged into its tiny, dome-like head. The being’s two outer eyes were whitish and the center eye — which was set slightly above the other two — was bright red and “swiveling around like a radar.” They also claimed that the alien had a disk-like object attached to its chest. This bizarre being seemed to methodically scan the terrain below, then sealed the hatch. Then the UFO made its descent. Eyewitnesses stated that the object’s weight was so substantial that it permanently bent to the side a standing poplar tree that was near the craft.

The object then hovered about 5-feet off the ground and extended four leg-like supports and landed softly on the grass. At this point, the alien that was seen through the open hatch now emerged from the ship followed by two equally colossal creatures that shared the same three-eyed visages. These extraordinary entities walked with a “heavy gait” and were followed by what witnesses described as a box-like robot, with push buttons on its front side. An alien adjusted one of the controls on the robot’s chest, enabling it to walk about in a “mechanical” fashion. The entities then began to examine the ground near where their craft had landed and proceeded to take some soil samples. One of the creatures made indecipherable sounds, which some eyewitnesses perceived to be orders. Then a beam of light emerged from the “chief” alien’s chest. The beam delineated a number of luminous triangles and rectangles — about 1-foot by half a foot wide — as if indicating something to its comrades. This frightened one young man so much he apparently cried out in alarm. At the sound the lead alien apparently fixed its gaze on the youngster, freezing him unnaturally in his tracks. This sent panic rippling through the rest of the terrified crowd and — as if this tale could get any weirder — witnesses claim that the aliens and the UFO all simultaneously disappeared. Nevertheless, this encounter was far from over.

Approximately five minutes later, the remaining witnesses, still stunned by what they had witnessed, were once again thrust back into the looking glass as the UFO and its occupants instantaneously reappeared at the same coordinates. One of the creatures was now carrying a “tube” that was about a foot in length. It aimed the tube toward a 16-year-old boy who was nearby and a beam shot out, causing the teen to disappear without a trace. Before a terror filled riot could ensue, the creatures re-entered the UFO. It retracted its landing gear and began its ascent, slowly increasing its speed. Just as the vehicle was disappearing from sight, the vaporized teen miraculously reappeared. Of course, it wasn't long before the press got wind of this harrowing and utterly bizarre tale of UFOs, robots, vanishing “guns” and gargantuan alien invaders. Genrikh Silanov, head of the Voronezh Geophysical Laboratory, first reported the case and — in a reflection of the new era of glasnost — the Soviet news agency TASS published a report about the event. Soon the story spread across the globe like wildfire.

In no time, scores of scientists, Soviet Government agencies and reporters descended upon the city of Voronezh. Those interviewed claimed they had observed this UFO, not just during the incident in question, but also many times between the dates of September 21 and October 2, 1989. An investigation at the scene of the landing indicated that there were depressions in the ground in the shape of a large rhombus that must have been caused by something weighing several tons, but there were conflicting reports as to their cause. Scientists also allegedly found anomalies in the local magnetic field and background radiation, though these findings have also been disputed. Silanov further claimed that unearthly substances were found at the scene: At first glance, they looked like sandstone of a deep-red color. However, mineralogical analysis has shown that the substance cannot be found on Earth. However, additional tests are needed to reach a more definite conclusion.”

Other reputable witnesses included Lieutenant Sergei A. Matveyev who confessed that while he had not actually seen the aliens, he had seen the spaceship, which he described as “a body flying in the sky,” moving silently at a very high speed and very low altitude. Lieutenant Matveyev claimed that even he was a little skeptical when he first saw the object: ”I thought I must be really tired, ‘but I rubbed my eyes and it didn't go away. Then I figured, in this day and age, anything is possible.” Vladimir A. Moiseyev, director of the regional health department, claimed that his primary concern was that of the health of the children who may have been exposed to unknown pathogens or radiation due to their contact with the aliens and their technology.

Journalist E. Efremov, of the Sovietskaya Kultura, spoke of the veracity of the eyewitness accounts: ”Children and eyewitnesses of the abnormal phenomenon have been questioned by police workers and journalists… there are no discrepancies in the description of the sphere itself or the actions of the ‘aliens.’ Moreover, all the children who became witnesses to this event are still afraid, even now.” Following the event, the children — including 6th grader Roma Torshin and Genya Bilinov — were encouraged to draw the beings they had seen, with results that even skeptics had to admit were surprisingly consistent with what had been reported by the children and adults alike. Even today debates rage in ufological circles concerning this odd incident.

While many seem convinced that this account is an obvious hoax, there are others who feel that this may be Russia’s equivalent of the now notorious Roswell UFO Incident. Perhaps the truth lies somewhere in between, but it would seem that even in 1989 — during a relatively open juncture in the exceedingly clandestine history of the USSR — Soviet secrets were still kept close to the vest. In the years following this largely forgotten incident, there has grown an almost cult affection for the odd creatures that allegedly visited Levoberezhniy’s park that chilly autumn evening, even spawning a line of Japanese toys. Whatever these entities were they’ve never returned, leaving the rest of the world to speculate as to whether or not these creatures were a hoax, explorers from another world, interdimensional travelers or advanced scouts for an alien invasion… perhaps we’ll be luckier if we never know.

Let me preface this by saying, yes, this happened when I was 7 years old. I know that memory can be tricky, but I have also thought about this experience every day since it happened. It’s less important to me if this experience was real or not, and more important to me that whatever it was - it had a significant, long-lasting impact on my life.

And the crazy thing is, it lasted just a few seconds.

It was the night before or early morning of January 25th, 1999. Central California. And I only know the exact date because it was the only time it snowed here (in a really long time anyway) so you can still Google the newspaper articles about it.

Anyway - basically, I woke up, like sat up straight in bed…and crouching on the bed (one knee bent on the bed, one leg off the bed) was a typical gray alien. Large head, big black eyes. To me the skin looked greenish-gray and had an almost rubbery or just very smooth texture. No nose, slit for a mouth, no visible ears. Remember it not wearing any clothing.

It just stared at me and I just remember feeling shocked…like not enough time to even feel terrified (that came the days, weeks, months after). For whatever reason I just laid backed down, turned on my side, put the covers over my head, and I guess I fell asleep.

The whole next day I was thankfully partially distracted by a rare snow day, but I also was very aware that I would not be able to go to sleep without feeling petrified for a long time. I thought about telling my parents, but I didn’t have a word for what I had seen. No reference for it. Didn’t know it was an “alien” or a “gray.” For lack of a better word, it was totally alien and unknown to me.

It wasn’t until I was at a friends house whose dad was watching a sci fi movie that had typical grays in it, that I learned to associate what I had seen with the word alien, and that they were at least “real” enough to be depicted on tv. And then of course, I noticed them everywhere - in shows, movies, art, etc.

I accept that this could have been a hallucination or very vivid nightmare or whatever…maybe I had seen them depicted on tv before and my subconscious picked up on it…but it is the single event that led to a lifelong obsession with aliens and unexplained phenomena. Sometimes I wonder if that was the whole point of that experience in the first place or if that’s a part of the reason why they appear to people - just so stories about them will continue to influence our culture, mythos, spirituality, etc.

Anyway, thanks for reading!

Hello! since I posted a story about my Dogman encounter in BC years ago (I will include that story at the end), I was asked a couple of times to expand on my paranormal encounters so I decided I would put my full story together in order as best as I can remember. None of these stories are fictional or exaggerated. These are my paranormal experiences or weird moments in my life, so far. Events take place from 2001-2009

—The Beginning—

My paranormal experiences started when I was roughly six years old, my first experience was very unexpected since at this point in life I didn’t really know about the paranormal or spirits.

One evening, I was watching TV by myself in the living room while my parents were napping. As I was watching, I suddenly felt a chill on the back of my neck followed by what felt like someone pushing a firm single finger straight down into the top of my shoulder. As that happened simultaneously, I heard someone whisper “Hello” behind my right ear.

At that, I sprinted into my parents room telling them I heard someone whisper in my ear and that someone was in the house. They brushed me off and didn’t check for me. To this day, I wonder if this event somehow opened me up to the years of events that followed.

—Closet Encounter—

After this incident, unexplainable things started to happen in my house. My stepdad liked to scare me from time to time, and he would hide in my closet before bed and poke at my feet to scare me.

One night before bed, I checked my closet and closed it, knowing nobody was in there. Not long after I laid down, I could hear the door to my closet sliding opening. When I looked at the dark crack in the closet, I saw red eyes staring back at me. I ran, flicked the lights on, and opened the door, thinking my stepdad was in there trying to scare me again—but nobody was in there and those eyes were gone too.

—The Eyes in the Bathroom Vent—

Another experience I would have frequently involved the bathroom. When I took a bath, I would always see the same red eyes from the closet in the vent above the bathtub, just watching me.

It made me extremely uncomfortable, and I spent most of my bath time throwing a wet cloth at the vent. Usually, whenever I hit it dead on the eyes would disappear... until the next time I had a bath, that is.

—The First Apparition—

One night, my older brother and I were hanging out, playing games. He asked me to go upstairs to grab him a cup of ice cubes (he liked to eat them) as I was walking up the staircase, I looked up towards the railing that overlooked the downstairs. Standing there leaning onto the wooden railings was a figure dressed in a long, heavy-looking hooded robe. Its face was shrouded in blackness, and I couldn’t see any defining features.

I don’t know why, but I continued walking up the stairs but I noticed that as I moved, this entity stopped leaning on the railing and began mimicking my movements in reverse. Every step I took up, it would take one step backward toward the kitchen.

When I reached the top of the stairs, the figure had made it to the doorway of our kitchen, where it stood. It glanced in my direction and vanished right before my eyes.

--The Second Apparition—

I saw this figure one more time while I lived at this property.

I was upstairs on the computer, playing World of Warcraft, which had just recently been released. As I was playing, I started to hear cracking sounds, like someone cracking their knuckles. I thought I was alone in the house at the time, so it struck me as odd. I got up and opened the door to the hallway leading to the same staircase and kitchen area.

When I opened the door, the figure was standing at the end of the hall. It wasn’t looking at me though, but I could hear the cracking sound again, realizing that it was coming from this entity. I slammed the door shut and locked it. About ten seconds after shutting the door, I heard a strange sound that I can’t even describe. It was followed by what sounded like the door being pushed hard, like as if a big gust of wind had hit it.

To this day, I have no idea who—or what—that was, why it was there, or if it was trying to connect with me. I also wonder if this entity might be the same one with the red eyes I had seen previously. Was it getting closer to me?

--The Babysitter—

This next part I was unsure about leaving in, but since I’m describing my weird upbringing, I might as well.

I’m not sure if this person contributed to the weirdness I experienced, but she definitely pushed my brother and me to seek answers on our own, as you’ll see here.

My babysitter (I’m going to omit her name) was someone who had connections to our family. Her sister worked on our farm and had her own horses stabled there, so her mother often came along. After a while of her being around she ended up becoming our sitter.

Not long after she started sitting for us, she told us that she was a “witch.” She showed us really old Polaroid photos of her and two other people performing some kind of ritual with symbols carved into a table they sat at. She also showed us things she could do, like moving objects around without being touched.

For a long time, I thought this was just a fun story and tricks, but one day, I went inside from playing in the garage and made my way upstairs, where she was preparing dinner. She was unaware I was nearby. I witnessed one of our knives on the counter slide about two feet across straight into her hands and she just continued cutting as if nothing abnormal had just happened. She never saw that I noticed, and I never brought it up, but what that sparked in me was curiosity and because of that, I started researching “black magic.”

After looking around online with my brother, we stumbled onto some websites that gave directions on how to perform black magic rituals, and so we attempted it ourselves. We went outside, drew a pentagram with fallen leaves, placed a statue in the middle, and began to read off the ritual words we had written down. It was at this moment that our sitter looked outside, saw what we were doing, and ran out, screaming at us to stop. She started kicking the leaves everywhere and taking the statue we had placed. She scolded us, saying we had no idea what we were playing with and to never do something like that again. Not long after, she stopped sitting for us, and sadly, she passed away not too long after that. — While this part wasn’t necessarily paranormal, I think the context is needed to understand how my upbringing was and how these events may have created a domino effect for more to come. One thing was for sure, my sitter had an interest in the occult.

My last experience at this property was more tame but still creepy, I was getting ready for school in the morning and as I went to grab the hair comb it just flicked off the counter and hit the wall behind me, I know it didn’t just fall.

Note: This brings us to the end of the first house before we moved to rural BC near Lone Butte. I would like to note that these experiences so far are just the ones I could easily remember. They don’t include the noises I would hear, voices saying my name when nobody was home, shadows of people in my peripherals, and the feelings of being watched or sometimes touched.

—The Move to Lone Butte— At this point in my life, we had packed up and moved about 5 hours north to the outskirts of Lone Butte, BC—about a 20-minute drive from our place. The property we moved to sat on was roughly 100 acres of woodland. We were in the middle of nowhere, and our closest neighbors were a good distance away.

Anyway, here are my main experiences at this house. I won’t include everything, as there are just too many experiences of footsteps, things moving by themselves around the house, people talking when alone, shadows when nobody was home… you get the point.

—The Closet Slamming + Terrible Timing— My first major experience at this house was with my brother (who is very skeptical) and my stepsister. We were watching The Grudge at the time, and all of a sudden the upstairs closet started violently slamming open and closed for well over a few minutes. This terrified all of us and we didn’t know what to do, so we just ran outside and waited for our parents to come back home I did endup going back inside to grab shoes since the gravel was hurting my feet. When I went inside, I poked my head around the corner towards the living room just as the scene in The Grudge played where it's a close-up of her eyeball rolling from the back of her head to stare at you. I always found the timing to be so perfect it’s almost comical, but at that time, it scared me to death and I did not want to go back inside at all.

—The Schoolhouse & the woods— So, quick context about the property I was unaware of until I moved away years later. The property we lived on in Lone butte was around 100 acres and was old native land, the property had 2 barns, one for the horses and one was storage/workshop but it wasn’t always just a barn for storage, it use to be a old school were the catholic priest would bring the native children and force them lessons about Christ, this place on the property was burnt down at one point then rebuilt. It even had the old desk and chairs stacked up in the corner of it. There’s been rumours I’ve heard of possible mass graves being tied to places and that these school houses were not particularly kind towards the native children.

Anyways, my experiences with this schoolhouse along with my brother is that we’ve both seen the faces of kids in the glass and lights from the workshop would randomly turn on and off at all hours of the day or night. The woods at this property were just as spooky, we would find old leather belts tied up to trees, pickaxes, machetes, long and deep gouges ripped out of trees and prints of large animals around the forest. We also found what I think was a junk yard for old vintage cars, some have been there so long trees were growing through them.

—The Dogman— (Repost)

One night I was in the hot tub on the deck outside just watching the woods, taking in the silence, it was winter time and we just recently had a snowfall that left around knee height deep of snow.

It was around 2-3am and out of nowhere this very large wolf, bigger than one I have ever seen by far came out of the woods. I remember its coat being a shimmering silver and its bright piercing green eyes.

As this wolf was walking along the fence of our paddocks it locked eyes with mine and we just kinda stared at each other as he walked past me, both alone in the middle of the night, in the middle of nowhere. What happened next till this day instantly makes my spine shiver, as the wolf walked past he walked towards our barn with our horses in it. It became darker as it entered the barn but the other side of the barn still had a bright light illuminating the outside that I could see clearly. This wolf as it entered, half way through it went from the shape of a wolf to a very large, broad shouldered person. The horses didn’t make a single sound and this person that now stood roughly 7 feet tall walked down the rest of the hall and rounded the corner towards the open field but didn’t emerge from the other side, I never saw it again.

My brother had his own encounter with this same wolf I’m guessing, he told me that he woke up randomly one night from the feeling of being watched. He then looked out his window too see a very large wolf walking away from his window so I’m guessing it was watching him sleep.

———-

I’m going to end it off here, I do have more paranormal stories and some UFO stories but it’s more just subtle creepy experiences and this story is getting way too long lol. I wanted to highlight the major ones I felt may of contributed to these experiences happening to me growing up.

If you have any questions I’ll do my best to respond or if you have similar stories share the link or DM me, Im always interested in hearing others experiences. If you made it all the way through this thanks for reading!

A few years ago, I saw something weird in Cumming Georgia, in someone’s backyard by a small creek. It was around 4–5 PM during the fall, and everything was calm and quiet, with some birds in the background. I was with a few friends and my brother at the time.

We noticed this figure, and it stood out because of how strange it looked. It was cream-colored or off-white and didn’t have any facial features at all. The head looked football-shaped (but not exactly a football, more like an elongated oval), and the rest of the figure seemed pretty human-like in shape. It was around the same height or maybe a little taller than a normal person, and it had a slim build — not fat, but not overly muscular either.

At first, it was just standing there, staring at some sticks on the ground. After a while, it looked up and stared at us. It didn’t move or make any sound, just stood there for a bit, watching us. We ended up running away after that. I wasn’t really scared at the time, just kind of confused.

About a year or two later, I went back to that area with some people, and I saw it again, only this time it was closer — maybe about 150 feet away. It was still staring at us, just standing there and not doing anything else. It didn’t try to approach us more quickly, but I definitely knew it was aware of us. After that, I never saw it again.

I was wondering if anyone has seen anything like this before, or if you might know what it could be. A pale humanoid with a football-shaped head and no facial features, just standing still and staring.

Location: San Vito Chietino, Abruzzo, Italy.

Date: December 23, 1978.

Time: 20:30.P.M.

The Bucco family was returning from visiting relatives when a dazzling light began following their vehicle. The light overtook the vehicle and the vehicle suddenly stopped without the driver applying the brakes. Then at the same time a strange little man crossed road in front of the vehicle in strange bounding jumps. Mr. Bucco thought he had struck the figure with the car. The figure then quickly bounded away and disappeared into a nearby pine grove. Francesco and Fiorentina Bucco reported seeing one humanoid, but the other two passengers in the vehicle reported seeing two. The figure or figures wore brown “astronaut” like suits, large helmets with black square visors, and 5-digit white gloves. The beings were about 1 meter in height and moved over the road in a strange unison-robot like manner, floating 20-35 cm above the road as if bouncing on an invisible cushion. Mr. Bucco noticed a green flashlight like object wrapped over the humanoid’s shoulder.

These last couple of days have been really unsettling for me. On one hand it‘s been nice to read all the comments and input on what I could do to further investigate. On the other hand it has been terrifying to revisit this encounter in such detail and to carve away at the mystery of what I‘ve seen for the first time basically ever. My excitement quickly turned to fear of what I might find and talking to the owners only deepened my worry.

I had pretty much dismissed the idea of talking to the owners of the field in my head. I had convinced myself that I didn‘t want to come off as weird by asking them six years after the fact and I also convinced myself that nothing would come off it anyway. I think I was honestly just afraid that they might not be able to give me what I wanted to hear which is that what I‘d seen was nothing more than a scarecrow of sorts. Holding back on asking them is what kind of kept that possibility a reality in my mind and gave me some comfort in knowing it could‘ve been a scarecrow, so I didn‘t want to rob myself of that comfort by talking to them to potentially find out it wasn’t. Well it wasn’t.

I took these last week to really think about how I want to continue with this and I thought about what they told me 24/7. I‘ve been as afraid and as paranoid as I‘ve ever been since my encounter and I‘m not sure if I want to continue looking into this. I tried to stop thinking about it and distracting myself but what they’ve told me is keeping me awake and keeping me from functioning normally these last days. I even have doubts about sharing what they told me and I have not idea if I‘m just reading way too much into this. But I took a chance on asking them so now I‘m gonna take a chance on telling you guys what they said.

I told them what I saw and tried to leave out as much of the weird details as possible so as to not come off as crazy. I basically asked them if they ever had a weird looking silver Scarecrow or machine in one of their fields. They were very VERY interested to find out more about what I‘d seen. Apparently around the time right after my encounter, so April of 2018, they had to stop using the field for their horses because the horses repeatedly got sick from grazing there and were acting weird and unusual in general. They said they had the field looked at by a an environment examiner. They didn’t hear back for a while until they were informed that the land had been contaminated but didn‘t receive a detailed explanation of what happened. They told me it was very hard to get a concrete answer on what happened to their field and that they received an offer to buy their field by some sort of environmental protection organization a couple of months after the official examination. They told them that the field would most likely never be safe for usage again and that they wanted to make further examinations of the ground. Apparently it was a very good offer which made it possible for the owners to move on from all the losses they endured due to the sick horses and new space they had to rent for them to graze, so they took it.

They told me that they’ve never heard back about the field and that they could never get any information when they tried to talk to someone. They have also never seen anyone other than that first examiner look at the field. I showed them the pictures I took (see my second post) and they said that they know nothing of fires or anything similar which could‘ve caused the ground to look like it looks and they were very surprised because they thought no one was active at the field but from my pictures it looks like there is. That would also explain the weird smells but I’ve also never seen anyone in that area other than farmers and other dog walkers or people going for walks. The stress of the whole situation made them to just want to be done with it but they were still very interested in what I‘d seen and the pictures I took and they pretty much asked me more question than I asked them.

When they told me their horses got sick I got extremely worried about my dogs since they were biting at some of the surrounding grass but both are fine at this time and I‘ve never seen any sort of signs that warned people of contaminated grass or something. So either the area is not contaminated anymore, it never was contaminated or me and my dogs got very lucky.

Still, I‘m extremely paranoid that I did something very stupid. I wish I never talked to them and I just hope I didn‘t give them any ideas. I‘m scared that they tell the people who bought the field about what I‘ve seen (if they don‘t already know). I don‘t want them to get in trouble and I‘m scared for my safety. I‘m very paranoid. Looking back now the way I acted was so stupid and naive. I’ve already compromised way too much about myself and I think it would be downright dangerous to continue.

Thank you everyone.

There have been at least three sightings of the Arcata Gnome or as others call it, The Arcata Oompa. Last night I visited the original sighting location where two pictures of the creature had been taken. I set up camp and waited. At around three in the morning, I heard some rustling in the bushes and two distinctive chirps. I quickly took several pictures, this being one of them. Every other picture failed to capture the creature. Still, I believe the above picture is intriguing. The eyes, mouth, and nose holes can clearly be seen through enhancement. Later tonight I will return to the spot and try to capture more evidence.

This event took place on 11/10/24 in Humboldt County, California, US. I'd been hearing this terrible chirping/screeching sound for the past three nights outside my window. Finally got sick of it so I decided to investigate. Was expecting some dumb bird, but no. I turn my flashlight on and uncover what has to be the single most troubling spectacle to ever meet my eyes in my 29 years of life. Two orange and very naked little creatures were doing it in the middle of my zucchini patch. Their eyes were beady and their mouths were agape in the way that turtles mouths are agape when making love. Just an awful sight all together. Our eyes met and they sat there for a second staring at me with what I can only describe as empty headed surprise. Then, in an instant the one on top leapt off and the two little fuckers scurried away from sight in what felt like mere seconds. So like. What the fuck did I see? They literally looked like Oompa Loompas from hell. Anyone else seen anything like this or am I just cursed?

Another episode is out! It has been a fun and exciting journey to investigate and presenting all these Nordic close encounters to the Reddit-readers. Many of these cases have probably not even been heard of, outside of the Nordic countries. So with this said, we have finally arrived to Part 10, and this will probably be the last in the series, even though I still have some more humanoid stories to tell. Maybe I do a special edition later, who knows? But I am sure I will return with some other Scandiavian UFO-stories in the near future. Because as you all know, the Aliens seem to love the cold North for some odd reason. 😊

Hallingdal, Norwegian Highlands, May 1957.

In this highland mountain region in southern Norway, there have been many UFO sightings over the years. In nearby Torpo, for example, in November 1954, three schoolgirls saw a sphere with a man with red glasses inside staring at them. Also, other fascinating sightings have been made in the same area, as the UFO that was seen and filmed for several hours in 1986. Hønefoss a bit to the south is a UFO hotspot with many sightings and in Hardangervidda a UFO was seen landing in 1992. Then last but not least we have the famous UFO phenomenon in Hessdalen some miles to the north.

Typical valley in the province of Hallingdal, Norway. Nesbyen village in picture. (source: Wikipedia)

This story took place in May 1957 near the small community of Flå in the valley region of Hallingdal (Halling Dale). A man who was a lumberjack worked temporarily in the area and had rented a small cabin on Turufjell (Turu Mountain), which was on the east side of Hallingdal, between Flå and Gulsvik. The man had woken up early this summer morning at just after 4:00 AM. He opened the door and went outside. It was dawn and fine weather with good visibility. Suddenly he heard a hissing sound, which sounded almost like a bird flying by at close range. He looked around and then caught sight of a silver craft passing by at about 100 meters (110 yards) distance. The shape was round with a hole through it, donut shaped, and it had a diameter of about 15 meters (45 feet). The craft descended slowly towards the ground and hovered.

As the man stood there looking at the craft in fascination, he saw a square platform with a grated railing being lowered from the center of the ship. In this were two small, dark-clad "people". They jumped off the platform and onto the ground. Then they stood there and "pointed and glared" as the man put it. After a short while they jumped aboard the platform again and it was lifted back into the ship and disappeared. Then the craft began to rise again, slowly at first with a noise that sounded like a table fan. After 300 meters, the speed increased very much upwards and it was gone in an instant.

When the lumberjack opened the front door of his cabin that morning he saw something strange. (artistic impression)

This event came to light through a letter to a UFO researcher. A man known to the woodcutter had sent it. The story had been told to him. And the friend meant that the lumberjack was a serious person, who didn't go around making things up or lying about things. Woodworkers of this vintage were not like that. He was also anonymous and had nothing to gain by fabricating stories about "Martians and flying saucers". Yes, again a sighting from only one witness, where Humanoids are seen getting out of a craft, looking around a bit, and then jumping back in and speeding off. We have seen this type of report from all corners of the earth and it is difficult to understand what the purpose is.

Ambushed on a desolate road.

Väggarö, Sweden, October 29 1965.

I am usually not very fond of contactee-cases, because I find them rather far fetched and a bit ego-centric. The idea that a random person here on Earth has been contacted by an alien race and got a mission to save humanity or the planet and other strange things we have read about in those cases, I find a little hard to swallow sometimes. But this story is quite intresting though and it involves the famous Trance-Medium couple Sture and Turid Johansson from Stockholm. During the 1970s they even became very famous abroad in parapsychological circles and had Hollywood celebrities such as Shirley MacLaine and Dennis Weaver visiting their home in Sweden during the 70s.

Sture and Turid Johansson. (source: Håkan Blomqvist's blog)

Sture met Norwegian Turid from Kirkenes in the late 50s. Turid moved to Stockholm in Sweden and they married 1959. Both were very interested in meditation and spirituality and both Sture and Turid considered themselves to have Clairvoyant abilities. During 1964, the couple also became interested in Ufology and joined the Ufological Society in Stockholm. A short time after a meeting at the society, Turid spoke on the phone with a friend. Suddenly they both heard a male voice say on the phone that Turid and Sture were going to a place called Väggarö on Thursday evening (a small community located in the countryside south of Stockholm). Then the voice disappeared as quickly as it had come. Sture and Turid went out to the place on Thursday as the voice said and then they often went there in the evenings to sit in the car and meditate. Sometimes when they were sitting there, they could perceive blue-purple waves or radiations flowing through the car.

The trips to the place in the Väggarö countryside continued, but after a while mysterious things started to happen every time Turid and Sture went there. During the winter of 1964, so many mishaps happened that they began to wonder if someone was trying to stop them from going there. The most common was that the car broke down in strange ways. So once they even went to the meditation place on Väggarö on foot. It was many kilometers they had to walk (many miles). This evening it also snowed. As they walked and plodded along the snow-covered forest roads, suddenly an intense blue-white light came behind them, almost like a welding flame, and they jumped into the ditch and the light passed quickly past them on the road above and then shot vertically into the sky like a "rocket ". If Sture and Turid had not jumped out of the way, the beam of light would have run over them.

On the evening of October 29, 1965, scores of UFO sightings were reported in Sweden. Thousands of people across the country had seen a bright shining object pass across the sky between the hours of 6:00 – 7:00 PM. Many years later, the renowned Swedish UFO researcher Clas Svahn investigated these sightings and concluded that they were due to the American spy satellite 1965-79A that crashed and produced this spectacular light phenomenon high up in the sky. But the satellite theory does not explain everything that happened this autumn evening. Over the Stockholm area and south down towards Väggarö, many had observed a long, dark, cigar-shaped object with many windows (people likened it to a railway carriage with lighted windows) gliding silently over the landscape at low altitude. And in Enköping, young people had seen some small, strange creatures running across the road at around 11:00 PM. The radio station in Enköping also stopped working this evening. Strange things were also reported in Denmark. In Sønderborg at 8:15 PM, the air raid sirens started to wail at the same time as the electricity went down to low power and disappeared almost completely around the city. And the Danish Air Force received UFO reports throughout the evening. Whether it was due to the crashing satellite or something else was unclear.

In Stockholm, the Ufological Society had gathered in a large apartment in the fine central district of Östermalm. This time the meeting was led by the well-known contact person Sten Lindgren, who had previously received a telepathic message from an acquaintance, another contact person, the American "Major" Wayne S. Aho (who was also visiting the apartment in Stockholm at this time) saying that "spacemen" led by the alien Val Thor would fly in space over Scandinavia with a mothership and many smaller associated craft this evening. At around 8:00 PM, Wayne Aho received a mental message from Val Thor that "They are here!". Many members of the Ufologiska Sällskapet then went out on the balcony and saw, according to themselves, a group of six orange-glowing Adamski-like craft flying across the sky above Stockholm. According to Sten Lindgren, they were flying at low altitude and they were about 400 – 500 meters (437 – 546 Yards) away at the closest and were flying around in circles.  If it was really Val Thor himself who flew in his flying saucer over the city's rooftops that night or if he was just flying around in the Ufological Society's imagination, we will probably never find out.

The people gathered on the balcony of the Ufological Society's apartment, claimed they saw 6 glowing craft over Stockholm the same night. (artistic impression)

During the day on October 29, Turid Johansson had received a telepathic message that she and Sture would go to the meditation place on Väggarö at 10:30 that evening. The "voice" also told them to be careful because “there is a power struggle going on here on earth".

When they arrived at the scene they were too early and it was only 9:30 PM. They could not understand why it was like that. When they had stopped the car in the usual place, they suddenly saw some shapes in the twilight light down by the meadow. And they came quickly closer, until they were right beside the car. Sture estimated that there were five to six creatures and some of them were only less than a meter (3 feet) away from him. And they were about 1.2 – 1.5 meters (4 – 5 feet) tall, dark green with very large heads and large eyes without pupils and glowing red like phosphorus. They had no ears, nor did he see any feet, but instead they sort of floated across the ground in straight lines, no soft curves. Both Sture and Turid got the feeling that these creatures were evil. While the creatures were around the car, the transistor radio that was in the back seat went down and just crackled all the time.

Reconstruction of the scary event that night in October 1965 (Photo and sketch by Håkan Blomqvist)

Sture and Turid were now terrified and they wished another car would pass by on the narrow gravel road, but none came. As quickly as they appeared, the creatures now disappeared back down towards the meadow. And then all hell broke loose! A crash was heard and it was as if a flying saucer landed on the roof of the car, which began to shake. The radio screeched and jumped around in the back seat, and Sture and Turid tried to hide under the dashboard. They thought the car would break off in the middle. Then everything suddenly stopped and it was calm again. Both of them were completely shocked and did not dare to do anything. After a while, they had the courage to drive away. Sture and Turid estimated the entire sequence of events to last 5 minutes. Despite this, they did not get home until 4:00 in the morning. Where had all the hours gone? They didn't know that. And later they were offered to find out more about the lost time under hypnosis, but declined because they were afraid of what might be discovered then. The day after the incident, Sture and Turid went back to the scene during the day, but they never found any traces of the night's assault. In the evenings after dark, they never again dared to go back to the meditation place on Väggarö. Because they both felt there was evil there now, that turned the nice place they associated with peace and joy into something horrible.

Over the years, many strange and supernatural events would befall Turid, ranging from strange people she met who knew a lot of things about her that no one should know or people she saw in dreams and then saw them in reality, people she met who she could communicate with telepathically with or others telling things that would happen in the future and then it occured, strange voices on the phone and strange footsteps in her residence and other things. But nothing of a UFO nature happened to Turid until January 22, 1974.

Turid and her sister were on their way home in the car from a lecture. It was 8:30 PM and they were on Lidingö just outside Stockholm. Driving past a golf course in a secluded area, they suddenly saw a light out on one of the courses. Since it was January, no one was out golfing at this time of year, especially not so late at night in the dark. Soon after they saw the light again and the outlines of some strange people between the trees and these "people" were very long and narrow. Turid's sister wanted to stay and watch, but Turid felt uneasy and thought something was not right, so they continued to go. When they had traveled a couple of hundred meters (200 -250 Yards), they saw a shining object pass by the road at low altitude. When Turid came home, she told Sture what they had been through, and he then told her that he too had seen a glowing orb outside the window that evening. Therefore, they went back to the golf course on Lidingö already that evening. But they saw no sign of the creatures or the shining object. When they got back home and went to sleep, they heard footsteps and what sounded like a buzzing bumblebee outside the house. Turid's sister also experienced similar phenomena outside her home. In the middle of the night Turid and Sture woke up to footsteps outside and several knocks on the front door, but they could see through a window that no one was there.

When they were driving past the golf course that winter evening, they observed a bright light and many tall and thin beings. (artistic impression)

What Turid and Sture Johansson experienced was very strange and if they were telling the truth it will be even stranger. Because after all, there were some things in this fascinating story that sounded rather absurd and far-fetched. But still there were some similarities with other UFO stories. Small floating creatures with large eyes have been observed in other reports such as the Hopkinsville Goblins case in the USA in 1955. And in France in 1976, a woman driving from Matton to L´Etang du Banel late at night, reported seeing a lot of small green creatures with big glowing red eyes in a field next to the road. Are the same creatures appearing in these three stories? Maybe, maybe not? Perhaps it is just coincidence? We also see some similarities with other contact case stories. Either they actually experienced this, or there are similarities due to simply reading other stories and imitating them. But we will never know the truth, because neither Turid nor Sture Johansson are with us anymore. Turid passed away already in 2010 and Sture several years later in 2021.

Imagination of the ambush at Väggarö. Several green creatures with red, glowing eyes surrounded the couple's car.

Winged humanoids on the road.

Lauhala village, western Finland, December 14 1972.

During the first years of the 1970:s, many strange humanoid sightings were made in Finland, such as the goblin-like creature in Imjärvi, the Kinnula Ufonaut, the Little Man in northern Finland and Sweden, the boy who saw humanoids on the roof of his house and then got abducted by a claw equipped saucer, the mysterious driver of the "black car" in Turku, the musician Pauli Niiran's nightly meeting with humanoids, the snow plow man and the being in the UFO and other fascinating cases. This is another Finnish report on aliens from this time.

It was 2:30 AM on this December night in 1972 and farmer Veikko Kivioja was returning home in his car after visiting a neighbor, Seppo Oja, who lived a few kilometers away. After he had driven one and a half kilometers (approx. 1 mile) on winding and snowy forest roads, he rounded another curve and in front of him suddenly he saw three points of light on the left side of the road. He thought it was another car coming towards him on the narrow road and slowed down and then stopped the car and was now a little closer. Veikko now saw that the three lights were actually three human-like beings and there was a strange shimmer of light coming from them. The three humanoids were heading across the road in front of him towards a logging clearing on the right side of the road. The creatures had round heads, but Veikko could not see any facial features. He also saw that they had wing-like arms, which rested against their hips when they walked. The legs were clearly visible and they seemed to walk softly and easily.

In front of the surprised man three small humanoids were crossing the forest road. (artistic impression)

Veikko Kivioja now decided to go back to his neighbor Seppo Oja, to bring another witness with him. He drove his car forward a little in order to turn it around and as he did so the headlights turned on the creatures. He noticed that they were completely ignoring him, as if they didn't see him at all. He drove quickly along the winding road and when he reached the neighbor's house again, he honked like a madman to get the attention of Seppo, who came out and wondered what had happened. Veikko told him and the neighbor followed, even though he didn't believe him and thought it sounded quite ridiculous. But when they got back to the clearing next to the road, Seppo realized it wasn't made up. The creatures were still there, and now they were heading for a small hill about 100 meters (110 yards) away. The two men could also see a glowing sphere that completely enveloped the creatures, and it moved at the same speed as the creatures went. The light from the sphere was so strong that it completely brighten up the surrounding forest and the trees were clearly visible. After 10 minutes the light faded away and the forest became dark again. The creatures were also gone. A short time afterwards, the two men dared to get out of the car and they walked over to the hill to see if they could see any traces of the creatures. But unfortunately they couldn't find anything.

The farmer barely escaped the green orb that were passing behind him to the other side of the road. (artistic impression)

About 4 - 5 hours after the two men´s encounter, dairy farmer Heimo Mattila was out driving his tractor on another road about 10 km (6.2 miles) away. It was still quite dark outside. Suddenly he saw a very bright light coming from the right side of the road about 100 meters (110 yards) away. It turned out to be a spherical object about 2 meters (6 feet) in diameter, emitting a bright green light. The light orb flew towards the road about 1 - 2 meters (3 - 6 feet) above the ground, at the same speed as a human walking, and it gracefully avoided all obstacles in the terrain in front of it. Heimo gassed his tractor and drove forward as fast as he could and the object crossed the road right behind him. As he drove, he could see the green orb of light behind him in the rear view mirror.

The question you ask yourself after reading the story of Heikko and Seppo and their encounter with the humanoids... Since they had spent the evening together... were both men really sober? ...Or did they look too deep into the Vodka bottle this evening? Yes, it's not entirely unbelievable. But they may also have seen something really strange. Who knows? And the farmer Heimo also saw something unusual that morning, which somewhat confirms their story.

The rocking man.

Döviken, middle of Sweden, November 24 1988.

The whole of 1988 had a big UFO wave in Sweden and in one of these cases a strange being was sighted. On November 24, Rune Asplund from Döviken in the province of Jämtland, was drinking coffee at his kitchen table. It was shortly past 9:00 PM. He was looking out of his window when he suddenly caught sight of a humanoid creature in the yard outside, about six meters (18 feet) from the house. The being was around 1,3 meters tall (approx 4 feet), and it stood straddle-legged with arms stretched out from the body. He had something that looked like a frogman's suit covering the head, face and feet. The suit was of a reflective aluminum like material. The creature stood in the same place in the yard, rocking its body from side to side. The witness Rune Asplund watched it for about one minute, and then he decided to go outside, but when he opened the door the creature disappered into nothing. His three dogs were barking like they do when a stranger arrives during the whole encounter.

A strange humanoid was standing in the yard and rocking its body from side to side. Then it suddenly disappeared into thin air. (source AFU newsletter)

In the winter of 1987 Asplund's neighbour saw in the same area, a small man about 1 meter tall (3 feet) disappear into nothing, the same way the being in Rune’s yard did. Mr Asplund also heard that a police car stopped inexplicably as an unidentified object passed by on the same evening. This allegedly happened at Hunge, about 10 km (6 miles) from Döviken, but this has not been confirmed.

Alien spy probes.

Gershøj, Zealand in Denmark, March 6 2000.

This event took place in a small village next to the Roskilde Fjord, and this is a coast where a lot of people spend the summer in the many vacation cabins here. It was in spring and the season had not yet started. A man was out working in his garden, getting it ready for the coming summer. When he looked up, he suddenly saw a beam of "black" light, which focused on a grassy area in a nearby field. He was puzzled and could not see where the beam was coming from, so he moved closer. When he was about 80 meters (87 yards) away, he smelled something burning. The man looked up towards where the black beam of light began and could then see a white light there. He looked down at the ground again and then saw several objects moving around in the field and they seemed to be searching for something on the ground.

Small metallic spheres with claws hovered low over the field. (artistic impression)

The objects were round like spheres and they appeared to be robots of some kind as they had two small, short arms with clawed hands. They were made of polished metal and the man estimated the size to be roughly like soccer balls or basketballs. They had no legs to walk with, but instead seemed to float just above the grass. Not much else happened except for the smell of burnt grass and the robots floating around the area for a while looking and searching for whatever they searched for, and after about 4 minutes they were done with whatever they were doing. Then they moved closer to the black beam and then the robots and the light were gone. And up in the air the white light faded away and was replaced by a blue light, and after 1 minute the bluish light accelerated upward at high speed and disappeared up into the sky.

Strange story involving what appear to be probes or drones, and sightings of Alien robots are always interesting. This is not a humanoid case, but it is still a fascinating close encounter, which I would like to tell you about. Unfortunately, this story did not seem to have been investigated by UFO researchers, so no one knows if there was any patch of burnt grass or other traces after the event. No one else seemed to have noticed the event either.

Location: Hertford, England.

Date: 1929.

Time: Morning.

A sister, (5 years old), and brother, (with 8 years old), were playing in the garden one morning, at that date the road was a lane, with just two pairs of houses, one of which was theirs, and behind the houses there was an orchard. As they played, they heard the sound of an engine---years later the sister would liken it to a quiet version of a trainer plane. Her brother and her looked up and saw, coming over the garden fence from the orchard, this small aeroplane (of biplane type) which swooped down and landed briefly, almost striking a dustbin. It remained there for possibly just a few seconds and then took off and was gone, but in that short the girl had a perfect view of the tiny biplane but also of a perfectly proportioned tiny pilot wearing a leather flying helmet, who waved to them as he took off. Neither she nor her brother spoke of the strange sight until years later. She estimated the wingspan of the tiny aircraft at no more than 12-15 inches, with the tiny pilot in perfect proportion thereto.

Hello Long time lurker in here.

This happened back in 2009 in Puerto Rico and we still don’t know what it was and recently u/MinusGoji shared a picture similar to what we saw.

Encounter: Back in 2009 4 friends and i were walking home from a basketball game in a suburbs that is near our neighborhood.

It was around 8pm and it was pretty dark, There was 2 ways to go into my neigbordhood. The first one was the “Shortcut” which consisted of cutting thru the middle of an abandoned paintball park in an open field and it will take around 10 minutes to arrive to our homes. Second was “The long way” which takes 25-30 minutes walking in a bright area surrounded by houses and endless illuminated roads that finished right on the entrance of the abandoned park and then 5 minutes of walking in semi illuminated areas.

We took the shortcut like we did every time but this time everything was quiet,no animals sound(abandoned dogs took shelter there) ,no cars sound from far just pure silence.

One of my friends decides to start talking about how must be cool to play Ouija in the middle of the field as a joke. We tell him to shut up collectively because we were pretty scared,we all see the entrance of the park and we all start getting less stressed and start talking again.

We were about 100 ft from the entrance when we all hear and feel stomps coming from behind us, but not regular stomps but heavy stomps like an elephant or bull running.

We looked back and there was this strange shaped creature with really dim red eyes at first looked completely dark but as it got closer it was gray ish and charging towards us.

We collectively looked at each others and we ran as fastest as possible towards the entrance and we managed to get out.

While walking there is a part of the street that briefly overlooks the field and we all looked to see it we could see anything but all we saw was dim red dots looking directly at us.

We all went home and the next day tried to figure out what happened.

4/5 of us can confirm this story, sadly one of my friends passed away a couple of years ago. I also moved but have to travel every weekend thru that area to visit my family. It still gives me the creeps going thru there at night.

The Onboard UFO Experience: Six Shocking Cases

by Preston Dennett

It has been called the ultimate UFO encounter, the closest of all encounters: an onboard UFO experience. There are thousands of well-documented cases, and some researchers believe they may number in the millions. These cases of direct contact with ETs involve extensive interactions and contain more information about the extraterrestrials than any other kind of encounter. Here are six shocking cases from across the world: Australia, Canada, France and three from the United States. The UFO phenomenon is so much more than just simple sightings of unexplained lights in the sky. It’s about meeting people from other worlds.

“I WAS IN A UFO.” In 1972, “Steve” (age 24) was staying in a cabin in the wilderness of Cariboo, British Columbia, Canada. One summer day, he stepped outside and was amazed to see two silver discs fly at treetop level a few hundred feet away. He somehow knew they were going to land and that he had to go meet them. He asked his girlfriend to join him, but she strangely refused. Steve went alone and came upon the two craft, landed on the ground. One had an open door and a ramp leading to the ground. Curious, Steve approached and entered. Inside he saw two short humanoids with gray wrinkled skin, wearing white doctors’ smocks. Afraid, he was about to run when one spoke telepathically in perfect English, “It’s okay, come on in.” So began an extensive onboard experience that Steve would keep secret for most of his life.

TAKEN IN TARBORO. James Howard (age 15) and his friend Brian Hollis (age 14) had been seeing odd lights near their homes in Tarboro, NC for a few weeks. Then, on the night of November 12, 1976, they saw a metallic, disc-shaped craft with colored lights land in the forest nearby. Going to investigate, they became frightened when a glowing, white-suited humanoid figure appeared. When they arrived home, more than an hour had passed. James began having nightmares of being onboard. Later, under hypnosis, he recalled that both he and Brian were floated up into the craft, separated and given medical exams.

YURANI. It was a warm night in July 1981 as “Robert” (age 16) played frisbee with his dog outside his home in Seattle, Washington. Suddenly, clouds rolled in and Robert saw colored lights overhead. Robert now found himself unable to move as a warm beam of light pulled him up and into the craft. He recalled seeing a being with cat-like eyes, then woke up the next morning in bed. Years later, he recalled a long onboard experience where he was met by a hybrid human-gray who introduced herself as Yurani. She told him that she was more than 200 years old, and began to impart a lot of information about why the ETs were visiting Earth. At one point, Robert was taken to their home planet.

SEVEN HOURS ONBOARD AN ALIEN SPACECRAFT. Eduardo Pons Prades was a famous political author in Spain when, on the night of August 31, 1981, his life changed forever. He was driving through the Pyrenees in France when he became weirdly lost and his car mysteriously stalled. Walking down a narrow country road, he came upon a large craft landed in a field. A door opened and a commanding voice spoke to him telepathically: “Don’t be afraid. Please approach…Come up to our ship. We wish to speak with you.” Unable to resist, Eduardo went onboard and was greeted by a group of beautiful human-looking people in white jumpsuits. They told him that they had contacted him because of his expertise in human violence, and that he needed to give the world a message.

“WE ARE YOUR FRIENDS.” One night in March 1982, an anonymous woman driving near Springfield, Missouri noticed a strange light at treetop level ahead of her car. At that moment, she seemed to lose control of the steering wheel and felt like her car was floating. The next thing she knew, she was parked next to a huge craft landed in field. She was drawn onboard and was greeted by six tall, strong, human-looking figures with blue eyes and blonde hair. They proceeded to examine her and said that they were researching human reproduction. They explained that they were her friends and would see her again.

“WHAT DO YOU WANT US FOR?” One night in 1986, three young men were camping in the wilderness outside of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia when they heard a strange noise overhead. Looking up, a brilliant light approached and descended, revealing itself to be a silver disc-shaped craft. Two little beings appeared underneath and approached the men, who found themselves now unable to move. All three men were floated up into the craft and subjected to a strange examination involving lights. The ETs were friendly and smiling as the witnesses were given a tour of the craft and soon saw something which left them speechless with wonder.

Six shocking onboard UFO encounters, each providing profound insights into the nature and origins of extraterrestrials, each providing answers about the ET agenda on our planet. We are not alone!

The Onboard UFO Experience: Six Shocking Cases

This is happened in 2018 in Germany.

I was walking my dogs on the usual route I take pretty much everyday. You basically walk out of the city on a road mostly used by farmers to get to their fields. It was a windy but clear day.

The first thing I noticed was that my two dogs (both labs) didn‘t want to go on any further. This is highly unusual because they are always to excited to go on a walk and they have never done that before or ever since. The second thing I noticed was this weird sort of low frequence humming which sounded like it came from the sky. It pretty much sounded like a really loud low flying airplane so I scanned the sky but didn‘t see anything.

Yes it was weird especially in combination with the behavior of my dogs but I didn‘t really give it much thought and tried to get my dogs to keep going, but they persisted and started whining (no idea if that’s the correct word I‘m not a native speaker). Now I started to worry so I looked around the area to see what could have possibly frightened them so much.

That‘s when I saw this strange object standing in a field about 15 meters off the side of the road. This field usually has horses in them so it is surrounded by an electric fence. However on this day there were no horses there. This strange feeling of dredd or primal fear filled my body completely when I stared at the object, maybe because it didn‘t look like anything I‘ve ever seen before. I felt like I was stuck to the road and and couldn‘t move. I noticed now that the object, which I firstly believed to be some sort of machine because of its silver or chrome color, had vague human-like feautes. It had four limbs all ending in sharp edges. They had some black material or liquid on them as if it had dipped them in oil. Its head also had clear edges and looked very unorganic, like it was constructed. It looked directly at me and I could see that it was sort of blinking permanently. Its nose and mouth looked more like openings in its head.

The longer I looked at it, the more strange things I noticed and the stranger I felt myself, like I was looking at something so foreign to my understanding of the world and life that I was about to fall apart.

On the top of its head, it had this cone like structure cut out at the very top where some sort of orb was. It looked like a perfect golden ball and it was reflecting the sunlight. I also began to notice maybe the weirdest feature of this thing which was that it was extremely muscular. Still it looked more like a shell in which muscles were carved than actually organic matter. I also saw what looked like cables on its upper body and arms as well as stripes on its arms and legs.

As embarassing as it sounds I felt like I was about to shit myself so I tried with every fibre of my being to turn around and when after about 30 seconds I could move again so I ran away as fast as I could with my dogs back home. I did tell my parents and brother and together we checked the spot but it was gone. To this day I hate myself for leaving my phone at home because even though my parents say they believe me I get this weird feeling that they actually don’t. Luckily I already went to therapy before this encounter because I was really struggling with what I saw. I‘ve never had any kind of hallucinations in my life, have never taken any drugs and don‘t have any mental illness which could explain what I saw that day. I can not rationalize it and it made my already bad anxiety even worse. It felt like I saw something which I was not meant to, something which my brain can‘t process.

Now 6 years later I‘m better but still think about what I saw basically erveryday. I still live here and the spot is about 200 away. Sometimes I go on walks there but always with my brother and everytime I hear an airplane I get really uncomfortable and make sure it really is a plane. I even downloaded the app „flight radar“ to make sure there is a plane in the area when I hear one.

The reason I‘m sharing this now is that I hope to find out I am not the only one who saw something like this. Maybe someone saw something similar and if so, please tell me!

Welcome to another episode in this series. This time we have five different reports. The last case is closer to my heart, because it happened near where I live. While this was not a true CE3 encounter, the humanoids inside the ship were still close enough, so the observer could almost touch them. Also we have a very early intresting case from the beginning of the 1900´s. As ususal stories from Norway, Denmark, Finland and Sweden.

Boy meeting strange people on the road.

Sulitjelma/ Jakobsbakken, northen Norway, Summer 1915.

At the beginning of the 20th century, there was still full mining in the facility at Jakobsbakken, which was a small mountain community at the tree line near the slightly larger village of Sulitjelma. At that time, many families lived in their houses next to the mining area. Today, there are no permanent residents left in Jakobsbakken.

Bjarne Westvand was 6 years old in 1915. On this summer afternoon, he walked alone to his home in Jakobsbakken, after he had been playing with other children in the village. As he walked along the gravel road, he saw a dark church bell/jingle bell like object slowly descend from the sky to the west, and it appeared to land behind a hill to the left of the road, roughly where the mining village dump was. Bjarne was surprised when he suddenly saw two people coming over the hill and down towards the gravel road. They walked a bit on the road towards the old wooden bridge over the river, then turned around and headed towards Bjarne. One person stopped while the other walked smilingly closer to the boy, who stood as if petrified. These strange people were almost as short as the 6-year-old himself. They had long dark, wavy hair, with large heads in relation to their bodies, and they had gray skin. The eyes were large, but still quite human like. The people were dressed in brown or dark overalls. Before the people went in different directions on the road, Bjarne had heard them talking to each other and it was in a strange "rumbling" way. After this brief meeting with the boy, they went back over the hill and disappeared. Soon after, Bjarne saw the bell-like craft appear above the hill and quickly lift off into the sky until it disappeared out of sight.

Sketch of the humanoid, although the being had black hair, not white as in picture. Also map showing the encounter. (Source: Rapportnytt 4/1981)

Was this a very early encounter with the so called Grey aliens? However, they did not match the usual archetype of them, as these had black hair. Or were they perhaps hybrids? It should be added that this story was only told by Bjarne when he was an old man and perhaps it can then be colored by the popular culture's image of aliens during the 80s. If this history had been recorded in the early 20th century, might the beings have looked completely different in sketches? You can be influenced by later stories, when it comes to old experiences... Or did the boy simply imagine it all, that time in the summer of 1915?

Artistic rendering of what the beings on the road might have looked like.

Nazis or Aliens...or both?

Kongens Tisted, northen Denmark, July or August 1940.

This strange event took place in the summer of 1940 during a raging World War II and Nazi Germany's occupation of Denmark. This afternoon it was sunny and clear weather and a 15-year-old boy was on his way from Kongens Tisted in a south-easterly direction to an area by Tisbjerg, which is a small hill located between grass meadows and heather moorland. Here he would fill the troughs with water for the cows grazing in the area. As he came walking on the path north of the hill, he saw three men walking side by side towards him through the heather from the northeast. The boy could see that the people were dressed alike in dark green, shiny and almost silky-like suits, which closed tightly around the body up to the neck. On their heads were tight-fitting helmets in the same color as the suit. In front of their faces they had a large visor made of a transparent material that resembled glass. At the front of the suits they had two protruding things that looked like hoses or tubes. These started at the feet and went on the outside of the suit all the way up to the shoulders. The boy couldn't see that they had anything resembling shoes. The suit also included the feet. They also had no buttons, zippers or pockets on the suit. The people had normal build and height like ordinary persons in general. The gait was also normal and he could see that they swung their arms slightly as they walked.

The \"people\" the boy encountered looked like strange pilots. (Source: UFO-Nyt)

The 15-year-old wondered what kind of mysterious people were out walking on this heath, as it was quite deserted around here. His first impression was that it was some mechanics of some sort. But about 30 meters (90 feet) from the boy, the three men suddenly turned off to the south and disappeared behind the hill, as if they did not want to meet and pass him. The boy now became a little afraid of these strange people, but curiosity made him run up the hill to look for them. He now saw that the person who was walking closest to the hill on the right side had slipped a little and then caught up with the others and was now on the left flank. Then side by side they went back down through the heather towards a lower area. The boy now looked at the backs of the three and saw that their suits were shiny on the back. Now he also caught sight of a metallic and round, dome-shaped object, parked in the heather about 200 meters (219 yards) from the hill, and he saw the sun reflected in the glossy surface. He understood that it was a type of craft, but he could not see any windows or doors, nor could he see any landing legs or wheels. The boy had no idea of ​​the size in meters, but he thought it was the same size as a German fighter plane. Since the Nazis had occupied Denmark, he thought that perhaps this was some sort of German secret craft and that the people were German military pilots.

When the three men reached the craft, they stopped for a moment and stood still in front of it. Then suddenly they were gone. The boy was very surprised, for he had expected them to enter through some hatch in the ship, not disappear into thin air. After a short while the craft began to move and ascended silently and slowly, but then after 6-7 seconds it changed direction to the southeast and the speed increased enormously quickly, only to disappear as a dot in the sky after a few seconds. During the rapid acceleration, the boy heard a sound, similar to the sound of swinging a long fishing rod quickly through the air...a "Swooooosh!". After the craft was gone, the 15-year-old ran down to the landing site. There he saw that the heather, which was high here, was slowly rising again after being pressed down. He did not notice any pressure marks in the ground or that the vegetation had any burn marks.

The strange \"men\" walked side by side towards a shiny, metallic object parked in the heather. (source: UFO-Nyt)

On the way home, the boy speculated on what kind of strange craft it could have been. He had several times seen German military aircraft take off and land at Aalborg airfield. But he had never seen any aircraft like this wingless and engineless craft, and which flew at such a high speed. When he got home, he told his mother about the weird craft, but she assured him that it was probably the Germans he had seen. And that he was never allowed to talk about this again, for his own sake, because otherwise the Germans might come and take him away. And after that the boy never talked about it again. Long after, many, many years after the Second World War ended, he read about UFOs and then thought that maybe it was beings from space that he had seen when he was a boy. Only in 1974 did he tell UFO investigators about his experience during the war.

Unfortunately, this story was told more than 30 years after it happened, so it may well be that memories have faded and things are being remembered incorrectly. But as many know who have been part of something very unusual, that memory is etched in the brain and many decades later you can still see the event playing like a movie in your head plain and clearly, as if it was yesterday.

Were the boy seeing visitors from another planet? Or was there a more earthly explanation? There are many legends that the Nazis and the secret Thule Society had already mastered anti-gravity technology before World War II began, and that the Germans operated several top-secret flying saucers during the war. Was this what he saw? We will probably never get an answer to that...

Curious about the clock.

Järvenpää, southern Finland, Summer 1956.

This is also an older CE3 case from Finland. This took place in the farmlands outside of the town of Järvenpää near Helsinki. Unfortunately the story is short and there is not much details of what the beings looked like. But from the little description we have, we can assume that the Greys were at it again.

A 15-year-old girl was sleeping in the main farm house. Her brother was sleeping in one of the nearby storage houses. In the middle of the night, she woke up to find two humanoids with big eyes and gray jumpsuits standing in her bedroom. She was very shocked, and for fear that they would take her, she pretended to sleep. But secretly she watched the beings out of the corner of her eye. For some strange reason, they seemed very interested in her alarm clock that she kept on the bedside table. They picked it up and looked at it curiously. Then they set the clock down and went on into the living room. The girl could still see the creatures through the doorway, and there they stood around the large ticking Grandpa floor clock. They studied this one too and she could see how they tampered with it.

The short aliens were very curious about all the clocks in the house (artisitic impression)

After a while, the humanoids left the main building. The girl now sneaked out of bed and over to the window and cautiously looked out into the courtyard. Outside, she saw how one of the beings was standing in front of the open door of the storage house and it had an alarm clock in its hand. Soon after, the other humanoid came out of the door of the storage house where her brother was sleeping. Then something odd happened, as both creatures began to bounce up and down while moving forward. It was almost similar to how rabbits move. One after another they jumped away towards the field in the corner of the courtyard, where a strange object with many lights and a dome in the middle was waiting. The humanoids jumped into the ship, which then took off straight up into the night sky.

The next morning all the clocks in the house were showing the wrong time. Anything between 0:00 AM to 4:30 AM. Also, in the years that followed, nothing grew in the corner of the field where the strange craft had landed.

A strange metallic craft with many lights and a cupola was seen in the field close to the farm. (artistic impression)

The alien chocolate cake party.

Västervik, Sweden, December 4, 1979.

A young woman named Lilli-Ann Karlsson was out walking at around 1 pm the night between December 3 and 4 1979. This was in the quiet town of Västervik in south east Sweden. She was planning to walk around the so called Breviks ”alps”, which is a recreational park and green area in the outskirts of the town, and in the center of this is a hill/ small mountain with an artificial ski slope, but it is still quite high and large and grassy without trees or bushes. This night the sky was clear and there was bright moonlight.

Lilli-Ann walked forward slowly with her hands in her jacket pockets. She looked at the ground and her mind wandered and she thought of everything and nothing. Suddenly she stopped as if paralyzed. Just next to the path and a little way up the ski slope, she saw a bright, faintly glowing object hovering still and silent 1 meter (3 feet) above the ground. She moved closer to the object and got the feeling of being watched. She understood that this was some kind of ship and that someone might be driving it. At the same moment, two beings came around the object.

The beings were tall and slender with big ears and they had a skin that looked like velvet. (source: UFO-Information)

They were quite tall, about 180 cm (5 feet 11) and slim. Lilli-Ann experienced them as completely white and with skin almost like velvet. They had no direct marked facial features, but they had large ears. And they hovered a little above the ground. Lilli-Ann later made a sketch of the humanoids. The young woman heard the beings talking, but she did not see the mouths move. It was like she could hear their discussions inside her head, and she could hear them talking about her. And at the same time she heard a voice telling her not to be afraid. But she wasn't scared at all, instead she just felt ridiculous and silly, when she heard what she thought sounded like laughter, and that someone said she looked strange.

The humanoids now approached Lilli-Ann and one of them extended his hand to her. She saw that there was something in it and it looked like chocolate cake. She just stood there and couldn't move out of the spot, nor could she move her arms. The creatures continued to hold out the cake and "talked" to each other. After a while they turned and walked/hovered back to the ship. They went around it and just disappeared the same way they just appeared. After they disappeared, Lilli-Ann saw a plume of smoke coming out of the bottom of the craft. In the next moment the ship just disappeared, and she didn't understand how it happened.

Lilli-Ann is showing UFO-Information magazine the grass slope where she met the humanoids and their craft.

When the ship was gone, the paralysis went away and Lilli-Ann was able to move again. She ran home as fast as she could. Crying and upset, she entered the home. Her friend also lived there for a while, and she later told the investigator that Lilli-Ann was completely hysterical, which was unusual according to the friend. Later that night, her brother came home, as he is also a resident of the house. She told him what happened and they discussed it together. Lilli-Ann thought she had gone mad and talked about going to a psychiatric clinic. The brother calmed her and instead convinced her to contact a locally known UFO researcher in town. And the next day she called him.

Two days later, Lilli-Ann and Ufologist and Journalist Tor Wiklund visited the place where she met the humanoids and their craft. Neither she nor Tor could see any tracks in the grass after the events. There were neither burn marks nor bent grass at the scene. So, unfortunately, there was no evidence of the woman's experiences, as is often the case when lonely witnesses encounter Aliens and supernatural creatures. But what is interesting in this case is that the beings wanted to offer cake. It is quite unusual and only a few times where this has been reported before. One case was in France in Origny en Thierache on February 28, 1974, when two tall humanoids in square helmets stopped a cyclist on the road and forced him to eat something similar to milk chocolate. After that they went back to their ship and flew away. Why do they do this? What's the point of going many light years into space to force chocolate on some random person on Earth and then leaving again? Feels like very strange, illogical behavior. But something that is illogical for us humans, might be totally logical for some other life form... Or did they just meet intergalactic bakers that wanted to reach out to new customers? :-D

EDIT: There is another intresting case from the US where the aliens gave someone food. This takes place one morning at 11 AM April 18 1961 in Eagle River, Wisconsin. A chicken farmer saw an alien craft land in the outskirts of his yard. And he got a telepathic message that the occupants needed water. So he went out to the ship with a glass and gave it to the aliens, who he described as 3 feet tall (some sources say 5 feet tall) and humanoid looking, with dark skin and white overalls ("Italian looking" was his words). As a thanks they brought out a cooking device on the ground and cooked something that looked like pancakes. The aliens offered it to the farmer who ate and thought it tasted almost like ordinary, though very dry pancakes. He got a total of four pancakes. Then the humanoids and the craft took to the sky and left. Later, one of the pancakes was sent for analysis at the Air Force Technical Intelligence Center. They found it to be made from flour, sugar, and grease. / Source: Urban legend wikia

Joe Simonton saved one of the pankcakes the alien gave him.

A scary backyard encounter.

Mölndal, near Gothenburg, Swedish west coast, December 1998.

While this was not a boots on the ground close encounter, it was still close enough for them to clearly see the silhouettes of the occupants of the craft. And this is a very special encounter for me, since it is near my own hometown.

It was around 9 pm on an evening in December 1998, when a man was watching TV, and he suddenly saw a strange light outside of his livingroom window. He got curious and went to take a look. Outside he saw something that he could hardly believe. A large, red, tube-shaped craft was hovering in the sky around 20 meters (60 feet) from his house. While he was watching from the window, the object descended to around 3 meters (9 feet) above his garden. It appeared to be a metallic craft encased in a dull, red glow and he could not hear any sound from it. His entire garden was encased in the spooky red light. The man estimated the craft to be around 5 – 6 meters in length (15-18 feet) and around 1,5 - 2 meters in width (4.5-6 feet). In a large window-like opening on the craft, he reported seeing the silhouettes of several man-like figures moving around. Very soon, the craft moved away silently and disappeared as fast as it showed up. The man stood there in the living room window baffled and thought if he had been dreaming…

One day I was having a sleepover at a friend's house having a bbq/pool party, and we were admiring the scenery of the surrounding area because it was particularly beautiful that day. And me and my buddy (she said that she doesn't want me to use her real name so I'll call her "addi") were getting out of the pool and we saw a tall skinny dark green creature that looked like it had moss and flowers on it, run by, scaring us shitless. That was all we saw of it that night but for the next few days we heard clicking and a weird screech every few hours, but it stopped at night, and it rained for the next few days.

The weekend of 10/11/24 my friends and I set out for a camping trip in Lake Kegonsa State Park located in Stoughton , WI. While finishing up some geocaching on a hiking trail near the outhouses, we encountered something/someone strange. You can enter the trail after crossing the path of another trail that enters the forest. The trail we were on circled a prairie that laid in the middle of the trail and was surrounded by forest.

The sun was low in the sky, it had to have been roughly 6pm. The sun was just above the tree line as we started our hike. As we were at our last geocache of the night, the sun had just gone behind the tree line and it was beginning to get dark. But we could still see without the assistance of flashlights.

The forest went silent, no more sounds of the bugs around us or birds that have been active all day. It approached us with a whistle, a bone chilling whistle. Our entire group went silent and no one said a word, until we heard a second whistle. This second whistle was more broken up than the first, and in the slightly tipsy state I was in, I thought it had to be a human whistle as it was not perfect. To that I responded with a pretty stern “Hello” hoping for an explanation as to why our group got whistled at twice. “I thought you were dogs” a voice said as it rounded the trail towards up.

As he passed our group, I noticed I could not make a face out on this person, but chalked it up to nerves and being distracted. As a group we agreed while it was a strange encounter, we should not panic but took it as a sign to get off the trail.

This is where it gets even more weird.

All 4 of us in the group kept our eyes peeled for anything as we made out way back to the car. When suddenly, this creature (calling it a creature as it surely was not human) suddenly appeared on the edge of the trail closest to the woods. Staring blankly to the field in front of it, that would have been to our right. And in the flattest, driest tone it said “who’s that guy”. Everyone in our group kept walking as I answered “the same guy from earlier?” As I assumed it was talking about my boyfriend who was behind the group. We had never been so silent on the walk back to the car. Checking behind our shoulders and our surroundings constantly.

We made it back to our campsite where we decided due to the time of the day, it would be best to wait to pack up until morning.

While we were debriefing our experience, I told my friends how in neither encounter I could not make out a face.

Being a female hiker, I make a point to gather some facial features of anyone I cross on the trail as a just incase.

No one in our group could identify a face. And in our own ways we described how the face on this thing was not a human face. It seemed to almost have a blurred effect over what should have been a human face. All of us seen the same thing, you could tell where eyes, nose and mouth should have been. But there was none on this creature.

Being that it whistled and was unidentifiable, we are convinced to have encountered a skinwalker. They just are not relevant in that area of Wisconsin.

It was a long night at the campsite with the impending feeling of being watched. I’m spiritually inclined and feel I took the necessary steps of protecting our campsite for a secured nights sleep. But I have had strange encounter since. I’m willing to explain the encounters had since that night if asked.

And ideas?

Hey guys, a few weeks ago (mid/late September or early October) I woke up because my foot felt really weird and I saw something at the foot of my bed bent over as it held my big toe. I fell asleep right after but it freaked me out really bad, no one was in my room and it was about 4:00am or so. It looked like a michelin man but about 5’5-5’7 and had a dome shaped helmet with tubes in the back that led to the back of its suit. I’m not sure if I’ve posted under the right flare but this really had me upset for a while and I haven’t seen it again or felt anything since I’ve been praying (I’m a Christian) and rebuking the devil and anything that’s not made in the lord’s image. It’s like 12:12pm rn but I can draw what I saw to the best of my ability and post it tomorrow if anyone is interested. Bonus, about 5 years ago, my dad and I were driving down a gravel road to pick my big brother up from work and as we turned a corner I saw what looked like a child sized (2-3 foot tall) stick bug run behind a fire hydrant and haven’t seen anything since. I’ve got a few more stories too if anyone is interested. (This happened this year (2024 in Ontario Canada)

Back with another set of cases from the Nordic countries. This time it will be a little different and we will have 5 stories. Iceland is added this time with an intresting case. It is not often we see reports from this remote Island in the North Atlantic. But it seems to be UFO and ET activity there as well. Though a story from Norway is first on the list...

An airplane not of this world.

Holsenøy outside Bergen, Norwegian west coast, July 1965.

A 52 year old woman from Bergen had a summer cabin on an island just north of the city. She had vacation and it was around 2 PM that day. The weather was clear and sunny and it was 25 degrees (77 degrees F) in the air. It was a very nice and warm summer day and the woman was sitting inside the cabin, because it was shade there, and she was reading a weekly magazine. Then she glanced out the window and saw a bright light over the neighbor's flagpole. The light was bright like a yellow sun and the distance was around meters (90 feet). The height of the object above the ground was then approximately 15 meters (45 feet). The woman saw that the light was now heading towards her and she could see the outlines better. She thought it looked like a small propeller plane, but without a propeller. It also had no tail fin or identity markings. As it came closer, she could see the pilot clearly now. He looked like a slender boy, had a large head in relation to his body and large, dark eyes. On his big head he had some sort of helmet and his hands rested on what looked like a steering wheel. The pilot sat under a Plexiglass hood (or so it looked like). The woman thought she saw that the pilot's skin appeared pale, but the sharp light yellowed the whole man and the object. She estimated the length of the craft to be 3 – 4 meters (9 – 12 feet), and it had a black nose and dark bottom.

The woman saw a strange airplane hovering outside her window, with a strange being inside. (source: sketch made by the witness)

The object stood still and hovered outside the woman's window at a height of 3 meters (9 feet) for just a few seconds, while the pilot stared at her with a curious look. Throughout the unusual encounter, the woman felt paralyzed. But suddenly she came to her senses and slammed her clenched hand on the table and exclaimed: "Oh, No!". Then the pilot jerked and the strange “airplane” began to move again. The woman then ran out into the garden to take a closer look at the object. But by then the craft was already a bit up in the air again and at the height of a nearby mountain peak and then it swung out over the water towards Håvøysund. After that it accelerated upwards and then rose vertically, until it disappeared out of sight in the sky. During the entire time as the “airplane” took off and rose towards the sky, a whining sound was heard. After the encounter with the craft, the woman experienced a numb feeling throughout her body, as well as flickering in her eyes which she thought was due to her looking into the bright light.

The woman has always been critical of UFO:s and almost did not want to believe what she saw. She also didn't tell anyone what she had been through, because she didn't want to risk people thinking she was weird or stupid. It would be until 1973 before she told her son about her experience. He persuaded her to report her sighting to UFO-Norway. The son believed what she told him and did not think that his own mother was hallucinating. And he also implied that she had nothing to gain by lying about this.

The alien factory ”worker”.

Forsheda, southern Sweden, January 28 1979.

Lars Eriksson (not his real name) worked as a repairman at Forsheda rubber factory, and he was responsible for the maintenance of heating boilers and fans in the buildings. This Sunday he had started work at 5:15 PM, and would work his shift for three hours. He was almost the only one in the factory area this Sunday evening. Until about 6 PM everything was calm and as usual, but then suddenly the steam boiler stopped for an unknown reason. Lars was very surprised and he went and checked all the valves. There was nothing wrong with these as far as he could see. Then he went to the electrical cabinet and looked, and suddenly the heat boiler also stopped.

Eriksson made many attempts to start the boilers, but nothing happened. And no steam escaped in the pipes. Standing at the control panel, he saw that it was indicated that a ventilation fan on the third floor had also stopped. The repairman had worked at the factory for 16 years and had never seen so many machines shut down at the same time and then fail to start again. Something was very strange, he thought. The next moment the power went out! And the power cut affected not only the factory, but the whole of Forsheda. The whole village was now in darkness. But the power was only gone for a short while, and when the power came back on, the boilers and fans also started without Eriksson's involvement. Impossible according to himself.

The witness is pointing towards where he saw the small humanoid that evening. (source: UFO-Information)

When the power came back on it was 6:15 PM.The repairman checked that everything was working again, then went to the pump house which was 700 meters (765 yards) away, a little outside of the factory gates, to start the cooling water pump again to the factory. When he got halfway, he saw a small dark figure 25 - 30 meters (75 - 90 feet) away. At first he thought it was a little boy of 7-8 years. The figure was on its way from the factory buildings towards the power station. Lars Eriksson wondered how this child got into the area, when all the gates to the factory were locked. "Did he climb over the fence or was he the son of another employee who was also here working this Sunday evening?", the man thought.

When Lars Eriksson got closer to the figure, it stopped and raised its right hand. Lars also stopped and thought the mysterious boy was greeting him. The man greeted back in the same way and then tried to take a few steps forward. But it didn't work. He was as if paralyzed and could not move. He wasn't sure if it was because he didn't want to move or couldn't, but it was a strange feeling he was in. When the "boy" then turned around, it dawned on Lars that maybe this wasn't a human. The being turned in a very strange way. It was a hovering motion, with one foot slightly off the ground, followed by the other. When the figure turned around, he had slipped in the snow, which Lars then saw when he examined the tracks.

The repairman saw a short figure in the yard, who he at first thought was a small child. (artistic impression)

After the turn, the humanoid took a giant step that Lars Eriksson measured at a whopping 1.5 meters (5 feet). Then it continued quickly away with meter-long (3 feet) shots. The figure now had its back to Lars and he could see that it had something like a square helmet on its head, which reached to the shoulders. Apart from the helmet, Lars could describe the humanoid as 1 meter (3 feet) tall with a normal build for its size and wearing black clothes. Lars could not determine if it was a "space suit" that completely covered the body that the figure was wearing. It was poorly lit in the area here and it was not possible to see the being clearly. But the being had a strange forward bent posture as it jumped forward, sort of leaning forward.

As the humanoid reached what turned out to be a landing site, several things happened. At the same time Lars heard a sizzling sound, his paralysis lifted and he was able to move again. The being now jumped up, and then it almost looked as if he lay down and hovered, as it were, in the air some distance from the ground. Lars perceived it as if the creature had jumped into an invisible craft. The sizzling sound now increased in strength and became a strong whining. The humanoid now took off from the ground in a semi-recumbent position inside his invisible or transparent ship, and rode between some large fir trees in the forest next to the factory. The whining grew fainter and fainter, and the figure then disappeared into the sky like a dot.

Footprints from the alien found in the snow. (source: UFO-Information)

When the alien disappeared with its craft, Lars ventured forward and examined the footprints. He could see that the humanoid appeared to have had grooved soles on the shoes that were wider in the front than the back. The footprints were approximately 16 cm (6.3 inches) long and the tracks in the snow were 8 millimeters (0.3 inches) deep. Another strange thing Lars noticed was that the being seemed to be afraid of a frozen piece of rubber lying on the ground in the snow near the invisible ship. The humanoid had cautiously moved closer in circles, like an animal circling something it is afraid of or curious about. The being had finally shown courage and stepped forward and kicked the piece of rubber lightly with its foot. But this was just a theory, Lars pointed out. Where the invisible UFO was, there were also four tracks. Four circles in a perfect square. The man assumed it was a trace of the craft's landing gears. Lars investigated the site quite thoroughly, but unfortunately there were no tracks in the snow preserved until the next day. A short while after Lars's encounter with the alien, a snowplow came into the area and shoveled away all traces and evidence. However, the driver of the snowplow confirmed that he saw strange tracks in the snow, but did not think much of it.

This is another one of many UFO and alien cases where there is only one witness. One can choose to believe these stories or not, but unfortunately they are not enough proof that extraterrestrials are here. And in the case of Lars Eriksson and the humanoid he met, unfortunately the traces of the meeting were swept away immediately. Timely? Yes, skeptics may think so. Unlucky for those who believe in the story. But anyway, when Lars told his colleagues and managers what he had seen and been through, no one believed him. Even his wife didn't believe what he said. So it was not an easy time for Lars. He went around thinking a lot about the meeting and he wondered if it had really happened or if he had gone mad. In addition, he was teased at work. He became known in the village as the strange guy who saw UFO:s and aliens. He was also a member of the community church and it was in this circle that the harassment was worst according to Lars himself. The Christian Church, if any, should be the last to throw stones at the innocent, people who are different or people who had been through hard times.

Midnight guests.

Espoo, southern Finland, Summer of 1987.

A female student who lived in a house together with her parents in a town outside of Helsinki, woke up after midnight from a wierd sensation. It was as if something was pulling her or calling her. She sat up in bed and looked around, and she thought about these strange feelings for a few minutes. After a while she felt hungry and went down the stairs to the ground floor. She made a small sandwich in the kitchen, and then went out into the living room while she was eating it. To her surprise, she then saw three strange standing creatures curiously watching her from outside the glass patio door that led out to the porch and garden.

The woman saw that the beings were about 1 meter tall (3 feet) and they had a very large head in relation to their thin body. They had very large eyes, like eggs, and they were completely black. They had no hair on their heads and no ears, their noses were only two holes and their mouths were only like thin, narrow lines. Their fingers were very long and she managed to count them to 3 or 4. The humanoids had light grey or beige skin, but were not naked. They were dressed in tight-fitting dark green or blue-gray jumpsuits.

The young woman was hungry and was having a midnight snack when she found out she was not alone. Something was watching her from outside. (artistic impression)

Behind the beings about 20 – 30 meters (60 – 90 feet) away in the garden, the woman could see a strange craft parked in the grass. The bottom was resting on the ground. It was metallic in color and slightly oval in shape, about 3 meters (9 feet) wide. Yellow and red lights flashed all around the hull.

The woman stood as if paralyzed and looked at the humanoids and the craft for a minute. She was terrified. Then the "spell" was broken and she forced herself to move and she ran upstairs and into her room in a panic and threw herself onto the bed and hid under the blankets. She lay there for a long time, trembling and trying to calm herself. Finally the shock wore off and the fatigue took over and she fell asleep.

The next morning she went straight out into the backyard to see if she could find any traces of the terrible event from the night. But she couldn't see anything. But on the other hand, she saw traces in the years to come, because the grass did not want to grow in the place where the craft had stood.

The little folks on the glacier.

Langeness Fjord, Iceland, January 12, 1993.

Iceland is known for its legends about the little people such as Fairies, Elves, Gnomes, Trolls and other things that go all the way back to the Viking Age. One of the most famous mythical beings of the small island country are the Elves called Huldufólk*.* These creature lives underground in rocks and caves and prefer to stay away from humans*.*

But there aren't that many registered UFO cases or reports of extra-terrestrials from the island. However, people sometimes see UFO:s here as well and most activity of that kind is centered around Langeness Fjord and many UFO:s have been reported by Icelandic Airlines pilots over the years. The US Navy once sighted three large UFO:s in the vicinity of Iceland. And Icelandic fishermen often report seeing strange craft emerge from or dive into the water around them, some of the craft were even quite large. A big, black triangle was also allegedly observed at one point. Reports of equipment malfunction on the fishing boats when they are around these objects is also common.

Artistic impression of a fishingboat outside the coast of Iceland.

There are stories of Icelanders placing food for the little folks, especially those on the Snaefellsjokull glacier. These creatures that live here are described as small and short and with gray skin. Here we see something that could be connected to the well-known Gray aliens. There are also other connections between the little people of Iceland and aliens. In many stories when people meet the little people, it is often reported that they take out a magic wand and the person is immediately paralyzed and unable to move. This is a phenomenon we know all too well from many cases of encounters with extraterrestrial beings. Many therefore believe that the little folks that people have seen for hundreds of years are actually in fact our dear ET:s. Yes, Iceland is indeed a land of mysteries in many ways…

There are many legends of little folks on Iceland. One of these people are the \"Huldufolk\" elves, who lives underground. (source: Goblinglade)

During the winter of 1992-1993 there were much UFO-activity reported over the whole North Atlantic, from the Orkney Island in Scotland, Faroe Islands and up to Iceland. It was at this time that the famous incident with the missing UK Fighter Jet near Orkney Islands occurred. It met a UFO, went missing and was later found intact in rough terrain on a small Island where it couldn’t have landed. Unfortunately, the pilot was never found. During this period, there was also a rumour about an American warship encountered a UFO and completely vanished along with her crew, around the waters of Iceland. Other rumours from the winter of 92 - 93 suggested that Russian and NATO naval forces teamed up around Iceland to hunt for unknown submerged USO ”fast movers”.

The following story below is something as unusual as an Icelandic humanoid case. Unfortunately, however, there is not much information available about this sighting. But this is also from the UFO-Hotspot area around Langeness Fjord.

There had been bad weather over of Iceland for a longer period in the beginning of January 1993 and local people had also reported a lot of UFO activity in the area around Langeness in connection with this. Authorities now also received several calls that people had seen a group of small (shorter than a human), mysterious beings in gray that had wandered around the glacier in the area. But they were seen at a distance and no one got close enough to see who they were or what they looked like. So were these beings aliens or were they really just ordinary people like tourists behaving strangely? …Or was it perhaps the little people from the legends? Who knows…

A frightening late night encounter.

Hillerød, eastern Denmark, October 10, 2002.

Hillerød is a small town on Zealand island in eastern Denmark. The place has old origins and is home to Scandinavia's oldest Renaissance castle, Frederiksborg, a beautiful building from the 16th century. And it is in this town that a 25-year-old woman (who wishes to remain anonymous) had a terrifying, otherworldly experience one late autumn evening.

The woman had been visited by a female friend this evening and they had eaten some good food, drank some wine, talked and played music. When the friend was going home, the 25-year-old woman followed her to the bus stop, which was a short distance away. They had the 25-year-old's dog on a leash with them. At the bus stop they hugged and said goodbye. The bus arrived and the friend left with it.

After that, the woman started walking home with her dog. The time was then 11:13 PM. She remembered the time because that was when the bus left. She and the dog walked home through residential areas and small green areas, not thinking about anything in particular. They had been walking for 10 minutes, when in front of them they suddenly saw someone or something standing still and watching them, about 25 meters (75 feet) away on the pathway. This strange thing or creature was 150 cm (5 feet) tall, had gray-brown skin (but it was hard to tell in the dark). It was slender and had long limbs. The head was bald and the eyes were as big as an old Danish 5 Kroner coin. The woman and the dog stood completely still and were surprised, when the creature suddenly emitted a terrible sound. It sounded like metal rattling or being set in motion. It was hard to describe what it sounded like and it was the closest the woman could come.

The 25-year old woman and her dog encountered a terrifying creature on their way home. (artistic impression)

The 25-year-old woman just stood petrified and stared at the creature for almost 2 minutes. The dog growled low all the time on a stretched leash. The creature also just stood still and looked at them strangely with its head tilted. After that, the woman's paralysis stopped and she and the dog ran home in terror, as fast as they could. They couldn't see the creature behind them anymore, but they ran all the way home and up into the apartment and locked the door. The woman's boyfriend wondered what had happened. She tearfully told what she had been through. She was completely terrified and sat on the couch with a blanket around her and just shivered. The woman claims to be clairvoyant/ medium and she has seen some visions and heard many strange things of various supernatural kinds. Never has any of this scared her. But this was the worst thing she had experienced in her entire life and she had never been so afraid before.

So what did the 25-year-old woman see this late night? Did someone just dress up and think it was fun to scare people? Or was it a real physical unknown being she encountered, looking a bit like a typical Gray alien? Perhaps, with the help of her sensitivity to the supernatural, she could see things that others could not? Or was it just her unusual abilities playing tricks on her and she thought she was seeing something that was really only in her head?

I have always been fascinated by The Flatwoods Monster, a supposed creature witnessed in 1952 by several individuals in Flatwoods, West Virginia. Here is an image I created.

Initially dismissed by the authorities, the story gained popularity and local notoriety, becoming a source of tourism and legend for the small town. Many anxieties of the era, including the Cold War, atomic fears and political demagoguery, may have contributed to the story's initial widespread acceptance. Although the U.S. Air Force later attributed the sightings to a meteor and an owl, the legend endures, generating a local economy based on the Monster's image and attracting visitors to the "Home of the Green Monster."
