|
||
| the plane from below and behind, overtaking the aircraft, then moved |
|
||
| rapidly away when the pilot attempted a closer approach. (Sources: |

||
| State, Brazil when they heard a noise that sounded like someone |
|
||
| trying to open the rear door to their house. Their cat was also |
|
||
| acting very agitated. Her husband, Francisco, went to investigate |
|
||
| while Ursulina remained behind in bed praying. Soon she heard a sound |
|
||
| resembling a radio being tuned and then a bright blue light invaded |
|
||
| the bedroom. Looking towards the door of the bedroom she saw a |
|
||
| strange creature standing there. She described the entity as being |
|
||
| about 1.5 meters in height, with a huge head not in proportion to the |
|
||
| rest of the body, wide shoulders, a very thin waist, and long |
|
||
| dangling arms. It was hairless, had huge black eyes, a small lipless |
|
||
| mouth, and little "bumps" where the nose should have been. She |
|
||
| described the clothing as a brown tight-fitting coverall, with belts |
|
||
| and boots. The entity stared intently at Ursulina. Despite her terror |
|
||
| she managed to ask the entity what it wanted. She heard an |
|
||
| unintelligible reply and then screamed for her husband. At that same |
|
||
| instant the creature ran out the door and disappeared down the |
|
||
| corridor. Her husband apparently was able to see the figure run from |
|
||
| the bedroom. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database |
