The liquid caused his bare skin to feel like someone had | | poured kerosine on a wound. When he washed the substance off he felt | | better. The next day his peach tree was dead. (Source: Leonard H. | | Stringfield, CRIFO Orbit, September 1955, p. 4). | | | | 1956 - A married couple named McMullins driving between Bakersfield | | and Pixley, California reporeted seeing a bluish green light at 5:30 | | a.m. that appeared to be burning as it flew rapidly toward the west. | | It exploded in the air and fell in two pieces. At the same time a | | Mrs. Brown, driving near Highway City between Fresno and Pixley, | | California saw an egg-shaped object that flew south, emitting a green | | light like a flame from the back.

Going out to see | | what it was, she observed a saucer-shaped landed object only 20 | | meters away. It was brightly luminous and sitting in the middle of | | the courtyard. A luminous red beam came from the object and struck | | her, and she found that her legs were paralyzed. Putting her hands up | | to her face for protection she now found she was completely unable to | | move. She remained immobilized for a number of minutes until the red | | beam was extinguished. At this time the object ascended vertically, | | then flew off rapidly to the south barely clearing the wall that | | surrounded the courtyard. Before it disappeared she was able to | | observe several human-looking figures through square portholes that | | encircled the craft. These beings moved back and forth, passing each | | other, and were visible from the waist up only. Landing gear imprints | | were found at the landing site and several small potted trees had | | been burned. Mrs Casalvieri had first-degree burns on her face and | | hands, and parts of her nurse's cap and clothing were singed. In | | addition, her watch, which had stopped at 1:30 a.m., was found to be | | radioactive, as was her ring. (Source: David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, | | HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1968-89, citing G. J. | | Gianza Paz & A. M. Baragiola). | | 1968 - In the evening six young girls, ages 7 to 13, reported they | | saw a figure they described as "The Virgin Mary" in St. Bruno, | | Quebec. The apparition appeared before them hovering in the air. Four | | of the girls just saw the figure, but two also heard a voice they | | described as "soft and slow." It advised them to pray and promised to | | return on October 7. That same evening in St. Basile, Quebec a boy | | reported seeing a man like figure that was apparently airborne and | | "seemed to be walking in the sky, without any visible means of | | propulsion." (Source: John A. Keel, UFOs: Operation Trojan Horse). | | | | 1974 - At 12:15 a.m. a circular-shaped UFO with an antenna "like a | | church steeple on its top" flashed blue lights and gave off a white | | vapor trail when it maneuvered over Lexington, Missouri. There were | | nine witnesses. (Sources: George D. Fawcett, Flying Saucers, December | | 1974, p. 39; FSR, January 1975, p. 31). | | | | 1975 - On Wyfla Hill in Machynlleth, Powys, Wales a young man saw a | | domed disc-shaped object that blended into its surroundings. It was | | estimated to be 40 feet in diameter with large round lights five feet | | in diameter around its base. It was near the ground only fifty feet | | away from him, and he could see inside the UFO that there were what | | looked like non-humanoid, jelly like entities. The light on top of | | the object and those inside the base began to glow and pulsate in a | | strange mixture of colors, that exactly matched the background | | scenery. The object went into the background like a chaleleon, and in | | a few moments was no longer visible. The witness suffered from | | psychosomatic blindness and other personality changes. Gelatinous | | (Sources: Andrew Collins, FSR, January 1979, p. 14; Ron Halliday, UFO | | Scotland: The Secret History of Scotland's UFO Phenomenon, p. 169; | | David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, | | case A1403, citing Andrew Collins). | | | | 1976 - In Germantown, Wisconsin a hexagonal object with a flat bottom | | hovered over the highway at 10:50 p.m. No color was noted, but it had | | 4-5 lights in front, with a green light on one end and a red on the | | other. It hovered for five minutes, and had a red flame coming from | | the bottom the entire time. (Source: CUFOS News Bulletin, September | | 1976, p. 6). | | | | 1977 - An 18 meter in diameter domed, bowl-shaped disc hovered 50 | | meters over a house in Croix-en-Plaine, France at 10:30 p.m. Rays | | from the UFO converged on the roof of the house. (Source: Lumieres | | dans la Nuit, November 1979). | | | | 1982 - At around 11:00 p.m. three women were sitting outside talking | | by their apartment complex in Wigan, Greater Manchester, England when | | they noticed a bright light above an empty piece of property. The | | light moved to the north and became a little elongated, then became | | top shaped and reddish in color, and then finally disappeared above | | Winter Hill. Later a dog that was with them began barking, then ran | | inside. The women next heard a peculiar sucking or croaking noise | | that was repeated four times, then a figure appeared suddenly in the | | empty field. It was normal height and wore a one-piece uniform that | | had a round helmet with visor. There was also a hose-like protrusion | | that came out of the visor. In one hand it held a square box that | | seemed connected to the hose. The women became frightened and ran | | inside. The police were called and searched the area but failed to | | find anything.

Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database | | 1982, case # 690, citing DIGAP Report, Northern UFO News, issue # | | 100). | | | | 1983 - At 9:30 p.m. a huge silent, stationary, boomerang shaped UFO | | with two large orange lights and many smaller lights in the middle of | | the V was sighted hovering over the suburbs in Houston, Texas. It | | then moved away past many witnesses. There was a wind sound but no | | jet noise, and was lost from sight in the distance. (Source: Richard | | Hall, MUFON UFO Journal, November 1982, p. 14, citing John | | Schuessler). | | | | 1989 - Trenton, Maine over Blue Hill Bay -- At 3:30 p.m. Randy Rhodes, | | a police dispatcher for the City of Ellsworth, and Bill Reiff, an | | attorney, took off in a Beechcraft Bonanza from the Bar | | Harbor-Trenton airport. At around 3:45 p.m. they spotted a huge | | metallic disc, shining like polished aluminum, at the 9 o'clock | | position. It was at the same altitude as their plane--approximately | | 5100-5200 feet. The object suddenly moved dead ahead to the 12 | | o'clock position and it took on a reddish or rose color. Not very | | enthusiastic about continuing on with this thing in front of them, | | they turned back for the Bar Harbor-Trenton airport. The Aerial | | Direction Finder was working at the time but the DME (Distance | | Measuring Equipment) was not receiving. It had never before given | | them a problem, and 3-4 minutes after the object disappeared the DME | | came back on. When they landed they discovered that there had been | | power surges and outages on the ground, and they recalled that when | | they last observed the object it was headed in the direction of the | | Maine Yankee Nuclear Power plant in Wiscasset. However, a spokesman | | for the Bangor HydroElectric Company later reported that three limbs | | falling over a transmission line when a resident cut down a tree | | caused the outage. (Source: Leland Bechtel, MUFON UFO Journal, | | November 1989, p. 19). | | | | 1996 - In Vicenza, Italy at 10:30 p.m. two local youngsters reported | | that they first noticed a total lack of animal noises while camping | | outside on the grassy slopes of Monte Berici, then everything became | | abnormally quiet. Soon they heard a kind of modulated, scraping | | metallic sound. Next they heard the sound of something moving in the | | forest, and when they looked in the direction of the sound they | | noticed two dark gleaming eyes staring at them. The girl became | | frightened and covered herself with a blanket, while the boy saw what | | appeared to be a large form, like a white-silvery blanket approach | | from the nearby hill. It was a meter in height and approached to | | within half a meter of the girl, looking down on her with two big red | | metallic eyes. In an attempt to protect her, the boy jumped up in | | front of the girl. At that point the robot-like creature seemed to | | shrink in upon itself then vanished into the woods. Others in the | | area reported hearing loud noises resembling a helicopter coming from | | the woods. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database | | 1996, citing UFO CUN). | | | | 1997 - About an hour after midnight several local residents, | | including Tal Igur, a 23-year-old student, reported seeing a flying | | silvery figure in the sky over Arad, Israel. The figure appeared to | | have a frozen, silver face with torso and arms. Other witnesses saw | | an object that was emitting flashes of light towards the ground. | | (Source: Albert S.
