Soldier Boleslaw Lesniakiewicz had decided to spend the night at a ruined brickyard when around midnight a strange voice and the sounds of a little bell jingling woke him up. He got his rifle and stepped out of the brickyard. His horse was acting very uneasy. Suddenly he noticed a big, white dog like creature, which slowly came closer and closer. Overcome with fear he shot at the dog. At the same time a bright flash of blue-violet light illuminated him and he lost consciousness. When he woke up it was high noon. His horse was covered in strange foam. He suffered from strong headaches in the next two weeks.

Local pig farmer, 39-year old Nicolas Sanchez Martin known by his nickname of "Colas" was returning home, accompanied by two local women, Maria Iglesias and her sister Pepa, after selling some of the hogs at a nearby market. Near an isolated field all three noticed a strange light floating above the nearby river, concerned the two women decided to return and to continue no further, but Nicolas continued on with his donkey and armed with a machete. As he attempted to cross the river, the strange light flew in his direction and apparently waited for him on the other side of the river, floating just above the ground. Undaunted Nicolas and his donkey crossed the river but as immediately after the strange light blocked their path. It seemed that every time he attempted to move a certain direction the light would block him. Somewhat annoyed, "Colas" grabbed his machete and yelled at the light to leave or he would "make it leave". At this, the light flew towards the donkey scaring the poor animal, which "Colas" had to almost drag away from the area. The light finally vanished, but "Colas" remained almost in shock and breathless. Soon "Colas" a healthy and strong man, became deathly ill, and during the following nine days remained bedridden in wrenching pain, he died finally on the ninth day. The attending physician Don Victor Sanchez Hoyos attributed his death to sudden pulmonary edema, but "Colas" family was convinced that the strange ball of light had caused their loved one's demise.

While hoboing across the country Mike Childers spent what he thought was a night in the woods near Tehachapi. When he awoke and set off on his way, he discovered that the year was 1934 and America had passed into the Great Depression. Childer made a small media splash as a modern day Rip Van Winkle but was never able to discover what happened to the fifteen years he'd lost. It wasn't until 1990 that the decrepit Childers began to have nightmares that hinted at forgotten memories. Having seen Dr. Denton Schaeffer on a tabloid talk show about repressed memories, he mailed Schaeffer a description of his experience and dreams (along with his collection of journal articles and news clippings about him from the mid-1930's).
Schaeffer interviewed and hypnotized Childers on thirty occasions before Childer's death in 1995 and was able to uncover a vivid tapestry of dark and horrifying memories in which Childers was taken beneath the ground by chattering alien creatures who surgically removed his brain and transported him to alien realms. The most disturbing part of this case is the medical evidence that Childers was subjected to extensive and inexplicable cranial surgery sometime during the 1920's.

A local shepherd was out collecting his animals on a cold night when suddenly a bright light illuminated the area around him. His dog, apparently frightened ran to his side. The shepherd then hid behind some trees and watched as a brilliant object descended over the area. He watched as the different animals, sheep, donkeys, etc, ran in terror in different directions.
The light began to dim and 20 meters away from his position he was able to see four human like figures that were moving over the fields at vertiginous speed. The figures made huge leaps that seemed to make them float in mid-air. The figures were human-like but smaller than a normal human. No other features could be distinguished. Suddenly the light vanished along with the figures. After the incidents the witness developed apparent psychic powers and was able to predict future events, he also became a very well known local healer.

Local residents reported encountering strange entities that usually appeared after dawn. The strangers resembled humans, but their legs were directly connected up to their waists, and the upper part of the bodies was fiery like a flame and pulsated. The locals called these aliens “lights”. It was noted that in the places where these humanoids were seen people soon died afterwards and many left the region never to return.

A local villager, Ivan Ivanov went out to one of the lakes near the village, apparently on a fishing expedition (though the locals warned that nobody was supposed to fish in said lake because of the damaged “ship” of strangers that sank into it, which apparently poisoned the waters). On the banks of the lake Ivanov encountered several entities with greenish tinted skin, large heads and hoofed legs. They told him that they had a technical problem with their ship that caused a fire inside one of the compartments. They had to flood the compartment with water, and the spacecraft sank into the lake. The aliens spoke to him in a respectful tone. They earnestly requested that he buy them ink and paper. They even gave him money (Russian rubles) for that purpose. He agreed and after the initial contact he reportedly met the aliens on numerous occasions mostly engaged in running errands for them. Unfortunately, later Ivanov became blind for unknown reasons, possibly because of his long exposure to the aliens.

The 16-year old main witness and his younger brother were resting and reading at a creek that ran near their home when suddenly they heard a hum, and saw a silvery metallic object with a dome on top land right in front of them. A door opened and 5 grotesque creatures emerged. These resembled praying mantises and wore dull silver body fitted covering. The main witness stood up as one creature came up to him, looked at him, & took the book from his hand. The creature then put his hand on the witness's shoulder and began reading his thoughts. The creature had large black eyes that appeared to emit a clicking sound. Soon the creature rejoined the others and they walked around the object as if inspecting it. The witness then heard a telepathic message telling him that they were leaving, not to look up. The object then shot up emitting a deafening noise. Both witnesses were extremely thirsty after the encounter.

During hypnosis experiment the witness entered a trance-like state during which she seemed to travel at great speed to a place with a cloudy atmosphere. She then entered a doorway into an underworld place where she saw machinery and heard the sounds of its operators. Suddenly two women seized and overpowered her and then took her before a man. The beings were tall. The man was nearly bald; the women wore silvery helmets and black shirts. She blacked out then awoke to find her shoulder exposed as the beings searched for a mark. They failed to find it then the man took out some sort of gun and burned the figures "H6AQ" onto her leg. (These were still visible when she came out of the trance!) The man gave a cackling laugh when he caused her this pain and then threatened her. The beings did not speak English, but somehow she understood them.

A young German named Hans Klotzbach was aboard a coal train heading towards Luxembourg. During the night, just before the train reached the frontier station of Wasserbillig, Klotzbach leapt onto the embankment, sustaining terrible injuries to both legs. Unable to walk and losing blood, he fainted. When he recovered consciousness, he found himself inside a flying saucer, in a cabin bathed in opal bluish light. A voice spoke in German, making prophecies about world calamities. It said they had found him and felt compassion for him. He fell asleep and came to four days later, lying in a small wood about 10 km from where he had been. His shoes were full of dried blood, but his legs had been totally healed.

A 15-year old shepherd boy named Behoet Ocal was eating his lunch when a bright light landed nearby on a mound of rubble. From inside the light came three beings, a woman, and two men. They were all of the same height. The woman had long hair and the men were bald. All of the extraterrestrials had a very bright object of plaque on their upper chests. They told the boy they would not harm him and said they came from another world. The woman had slanted eyes and wore a tight dress; the men had “instruments” in place of ears and implements on their belts. They said they would appear to Ocal “often” and “send me pictures.” They left the same way they arrived. Ocal claims he has been in contact with them ever since, and has devised a star map, with their aid; it depicts the center of the universe, from which all things originated, and is identified as “Kur.” He always felt a deep comfort in the presence of the aliens. But three weeks after the first encounter the same three aliens returned to meet Ocal, one of them then suddenly raised his hand and Ocal felt a strong “energy wave” hit him. He fainted and had to visit a doctor who said he was suffering from appeared to be a “strong electrical shock” and a deep sun tan.

The Stephen Michalak UFO Incident

Stephen Michalak was searching for minerals along Falcon Lake, 80 miles east of Winnipeg, Manitoba, on May 20, 1967, when he heard the cackling of geese. Looking up into the early-afternoon sky, he saw two glowing oval-shaped objects on a steep, swift descent. One abruptly stopped its downward flight while the other continued, landing on a flat rock outcropping 160 feet away.

pe2a.jpg


Michalak carefully approached the strange craft, which looked like a bowl with a dome on top. Forty feet wide and 15 feet high, it emitted a humming sound and a sulphur stench. On the bottom half, just below the rim of the bowl, was a door-like opening from which muffled voices emanated. "They sounded like humans," he reported. "I was able to make out two distinct voices, one with a higher pitch than the other."

Thinking he was dealing with a terrestrial craft, he addressed the speakers in several languages, asking if he could help. He got no answer. He poked his head through the opening into the interior, seeing only a "maze of lights." At that moment three panel doors slid across and sealed the opening. As Michalak stepped back, he touched the vehicle's exterior: It was so hot that it burned his gloves.

Suddenly, the object rose, expelling hot air through a grid-like vent and causing Michalak's shirt to erupt into flames. An attack of nausea overtook him.

When doctors examined Michalak in a Winnipeg hospital a few hours later, they noted a dramatic burn pattern all across his chest - exactly like the grid Michalak had described on the UFO's underside. Michalak's health problems continued and brought him to Minnesota's Mayo Clinic the next year. Investigations by official and civilian bodies uncovered no evidence of a UFO hoax. As late as 1975, a member of the Canadian Parliament complained that the government had not released its findings.

Low Level UFO Encounter with Strange Electronic and Animal Affects Reported near the Chestnut Ridge in Pennsylvania

On the evening of June 4, 2019 two people were traveling near the Youngstown side of the Chestnut Ridge not far from Latrobe in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. The sky was clear with good visibility. The passenger in the car suddenly yelled out, “What are those lights”? The driver was watching the road and didn’t notice them until they were pointed out.

The passenger was confused about what she was seeing since it looked so unusual. She saw what appeared to be a glass tube cylinder among bright lights that seemed to be covered with a smoke or haze. The cylinder appeared to be attached to a large V shaped object with several rows of different colored lights.


6-4-19-1024x768.jpg

This sketch of the object was drawn by one of the witnesses.

The driver pulled the car over and stopped the vehicle so he could view what the other person was watching. The man said he was amazed when he looked up and noticed the odd sight in the sky approximately 80-100 yards away from the vehicle. Hovering about 60 feet over the trees was a very strange looking object in the shape of a V. The V shape was made up of numerous small rectangular shaped white lights. These lights were glowing but would brighten and dim at times. The driver estimated that there could have been 50 or more lights. The object was estimated to be about 40-50 feet long.

Above the smaller lights were four larger round lights that were strobing and orange, blue, red, and green in color. The brightness of these colors appeared pale compared to the smaller rectangular white lights. These lights seem to strobe from left to right. There was a larger light that produced a beam that was scanning the sky above the object.

The driver lowered the windows as they continued to watch the object. The two observers were amazed that the hovering object was completely silent. As the witnesses continued to watch the object, some odd affects took place. The driver stated that it was as though “the electronic system of the car was having a seizure.” The radio was off at the time, however they suddenly began to hear an odd clicking sound inside the vehicle but they were unable to locate the source. At the same time it was noticed that the dash lights were dimming on and off with the beat of the clicking sound. The driver also stated that soon after he was having a problem with his cell phone dropping the signal several times.

The observers watched the object for about 3 minutes but became very disturbed by the encounter and decided to leave the area and continue down the road. The passenger stated, “we were beside ourselves in awe.” They didn’t even think of trying to take a picture.

The object was still hovering as they began to drive down the road going about 30 miles per hour. That is when something else strange occurred. About 30 seconds after they left the location of the observation, a deer ran out from the woods in front of their car. The driver of the car is an experienced outdoorsman and said the deer looked dazed and confused. It was moments later that another deer did the same thing. Then just a short distance down the road a bird hit the car windshield and continued on. As they continued for another short distance an even stranger animal encounter took place.

The driver, who is very familiar with the native animals around the area, saw a creature that startled him. He said this creature stopped about 7 feet in front of his vehicle. This creature was directly in his headlights and he got a good look at it. He knew what it was but the animal has been declared extirpated in Pennsylvania for many years.

He is certain he saw a “wolverine.” The animal looked directly at the vehicle and was about 4 feet long from tail to snout. It had light brown hair with dark spots with tuffs of tan and white hair. It had its mouth open and showed its teeth before running off. Its body was thicker than the fishers that have been seen around this area. The witness said he was dumfounded. As they continued on, more deer quickly exited the woods.

The driver commented, “all of these animals seemed confused and frightened. They were all crossing the road as to evade something that had scared them. I was in a state of amazement at what we encountered. I’ll never forget that strange night.”

Addendum:

In recent weeks, the national news media has been giving some serious attention to the UFO phenomena and focusing on observations made by our Navy pilots. I set up my UFO Hotline in 1969 to report sightings in the Keystone state and my phone never stops ringing with current and past observations. When I began in the field investigations of UFOs and other phenomena in 1965, it became apparent that many UFO sightings could be explained as natural or manmade in origin. However every year, I receive UFO reports from across Pennsylvania that are not so easily explained away.

During my nearly 60 years of research I have investigated multitudes of low level UFO incidents where large structured objects were observed at very close range. Many of these incidents occurred in daylight and were observed by more than one witness. These detailed close range UFO encounters have continued to occur in more recent years. During the last year and continuing into 2019, I have continued to receive reports of unusual aerial objects that are not easily dismissed.

The sighting that I have detailed occurred along the Chestnut Ridge. This area has a long history of mysterious encounters. There are commonly annual reports of UFOs, Bigfoot, and other anomalies reported through the Chestnut Ridge area of Westmoreland, Fayette, and Indiana counties in Pennsylvania.

The Cash-Landrum UFO Incident

One of the most famous UFO sightings resulting in injuries to witnesses involved two women, Betty Cash and Vicki Landrum, and Mrs. Landrum's grandson, Colby, as they drove along a deserted Texas road during December 1980. In front of them, they saw a huge, brilliant, diamond-shaped object with flames shooting out from the bottom. Cash stopped the car and got out to have a better look at the UFO. The object radiated intense heat that softened the dashboard of her car.

CASH-LANDRUM%20UFO.jpg


Terrified, Cash returned to the car and with the others, watched the UFO move away. As it did so, a squadron of helicopters appeared and surrounded the UFO. The witnesses followed the object and the helicopters until they disappeared in the distance. By the time the three reached home, all were feeling ill. Within a few hours, they developed sunburnlike blisters, nausea, and diarrhea. Betty Cash's symptoms were the most severe, and she eventually sought medical treatment and was hospitalized as a burn victim. Her doctor concluded Cash was exhibiting symptoms of radiation sickness. The witnesses later sued the United States government, claiming it was responsible for their injuries. (They had identified the helicopters as Chinook twin-rotor helicopters used by the U.S. Army.) Their lawsuit was unsuccessful because they could never prove the UFO or the helicopters were devices owned and operated by the American government.
