Hi all, just wanted to post a little bit on my own experiences from the UK.
Whilst I certainly wouldn't call Myself spirtual, I do have varied beliefs in God from not existing to the possible hope that when I die, there is
something more to this life; I however have some strong beliefs that were not alone in this forest of Galaxies.
My first sighting included 6 friends during the age of around 15 (some 12 yrs back).
It was a cold evening in March with clear skies, and after visiting the local papershop, we headed upto what used to be an open field (now a housing
estate).
From the field you could see as far as the eye could. Beyond the field was a golf course, and beyond that was the next town, and surrounding vilages.
(Bishops Tachbrook for those whom know the UK).
Whilst talking and just aimlessly looking into the horizon (sunset around 7pm) a friend noticed a red light in the sky and pointed towards it.
I'd estimate the distance at around 30 miles away.
We watched the light for approximately 10 minutes. It neither seemed to get any closer or further away (size remained constant).
Shortly after this 10minutes or so, the light emitted two smaller red orbs (approx 1/4 of the size) of the original light, which still appeared to be
stationary.
The lights left the object from below and moved in opposite positions from the original sphere.
Each of the smaller objects I would estimate moved 5 mile from either side of the original spehere, and then also stopped in motion.
Picture if you will, one red light (20 foot across I would guess to be as visible and bright as it was), and two smaller lights (5 foot of so) about
100 feet below the main sphere, but at either side of the original object.
These three lights stayed there without moving, until the original light blinked off, then on again, only this time appearing brighter.
The two smaller lights then gradually moved back towards the original sphere, and appeared to move back inside. The light blinked once more, then
dissapeared completly.
The whole episode must have lasted nearly 30 minutes. No one could explain it, even My closest friend whom was extremely keen on aircraft, and
usually cast doubt on all things "Otherworldy".
My second sighting was shall we say a tad more brief than the first one.
It was during January, and was cold. Not a cloud in the sky, and was guarenteed to be a frost in the morning.
I was working as a barman part-time in the evenings (age of 19 time whilst studying).
After finally cleaning the place, I left work around 1.00am.
Theres two direct routes to where I live, by road which takes on average 30minutes to walk, or across a small field, and down a small ally way (the
third sighting of which occured there).
This journey was a mere 15minutes.
I opted for the field, as it was already late, and I had college the day after, so any time saved, was more time asleep
Walking across the field, I had this horrid feeling I was being watched. It was an extremely heavy sensation.
Of cause paranoia is something that can easily set in, whilst walking across a field in total darkness. Virtually no light down the ally way bar 3
street lamps spaced along a distance of 150yards.
Upon almost reaching the allyways first lamp inidicating where the opening was from the field, I had an urge to look up.
Above me was a Bright Blue object, around 200 feet off the ground. Perfectly centre to my own position. As I stared at it, the light almost became
aware I was looking at it, and shot upwards, completly vertical at a speed I can only summise as being close to that of light. I say close, as it
wasn't an on / off disapearance. It cleared flew upwards and some insane volicity. The object must have left earths obrit within a matter of a
second, from a perfectly visible bright blue orb measuring some 30foot, to the last I saw of it as a small pin prick of a dot before vanishing it to
what I was say was deep space.
I have no explanation to that encouter. Whilst over the years I've tried to dismiss it as electrical, the fact was, if it was indeed electrical
(caused by perhaps dryness in the air ) then I'm fairly convinced I would have been able to feel or smell static. No sound, no smell, no sensation.
Just there, then wasn't.
Whether it was some alien neighbourhood watch, or a freak of nature, in my book, certainly unidentifable.
My last encouter was more of a one on one basis with something. That quite frankly scared the living s*it out of me.
It was only a few weeks after the above sighting, and again, whilst now a tad uneasy about crossing the field, I took a deep breath, and made a speedy
walk across. This time eyes peeled.
I can only say whatever it was hadn't seen me coming. Remember, no lights until you get to the ally. I was wearing black jeans and a black coat.
As I got to the ally and started walking down, I noticed someone/thing standing to the side of central street lamp. I just froze.
I say something, as what I saw was a follows.
Distance from me, 20 foot. Height, approx 5 foot. Extremely thin body, almost dangly legs, and a head that was certainly disproportiante to the rest
of it. I could not see any clothes, or anything on it as if were wearing something. Unless it was in an ultra thin diving suit, there was simply no
bagyness to it. Put it this way, it wasn't a warm evening, I was dressed up pretty well, as would most people be out at that time, so when you see
someone wearing either nothing, or a one piece cat suit, it dosn't add up.
What happend next was nothing short of insane.
Whatever it was turned and noticed me standing there, and out of panic jumped over the fence to the right (houses are there which eventually leads
onto the main road, ).
Why do I say it was insane? Well, if you see what it cleared you'd agree.
The ally way is no more than 4 feet wide. Two people passing have to side step.
Where it jumped was first, a dense bramble bush mearusing 5 foot high, and around 3 foot in width directly behind the bush is a fence, which is at
least 8 foot heigh. I'm 5'9, and its well and truly three foot heigher than me.
Now, I cannot or for that matter do I know anyone that clear that without touching it, even with one hell of a run up. What this thing did was clear
it, without even a dash. It just took two steps (which is all you could do with the width of the ally), and quite litterally lept over the bush and
fence. There was no sound of someone landing, nothing.
However within a few seconds, dogs in nearby houses on the other side of the fence were going quite litterally fanatic at whatever it was.
I stayed for a few moments, then slowly walked to where it jumped. I managed to peer through a gap a few inches across, and looked into the darkness.
Couldn't see or hear anything. After that, I put a sprint on, and ran the remaining journey home.
I told my mother whom was still up, yet just smiled and put it off.
It was only untill the next evening when she approached me and asked me again what I saw. Her friend was with her (whom as a small child). I asked
why she looked puzzled and said, the junior school (which is next to the field, but directly opposite to where the thing jumped) was closed, and had
police and electrical engineers working/investigating it. Apparantly the school were asking for possible eye witnesses to whom had done it, yet
commented my description would more than likely get laughed at, and so advised best I kept it secret.
I asked why would both the police and electrical engineers be closing the school. She replied, all power to and out of the school was cut, but from
the inside.
Yet no wireing was severed and the police as of that time were unable to identify a place of how the person gained entry. However they did confirm
entry was made, as furniture (tables) had been knocked over, books scattered around the class rooms etc.
What was also strange was no other areas were affected by the blackout. It was entirely localised in order for none of internal alarms or sensors to
go off.
It turns out, the school was closed for a total of 3 days before the engineers were able to reastablish power. Yet despite the local police and CID
scouring the building, no way of entry was ever found, or for that matter any reason as to why the power was down.
Since then, at least more recently over the last 18months, the local council have invested LOTS into the security of the school. More so than any
other school, college that I know about in the area, as other strange things have been noted.
The security includes 10 foot barbed steel fences with no possible foot mounting holes to get over, complete with 360' rotating infra red security
cameras along the outter perimeter of school. Its certainly a high expense for a junior school for children age 5 to 12.
Could all of the above been a coincedence? I cannot say for what you may feel, but I certinaly don't think so.
If it was a burgler, how can someone cut all power from the inside, before triggering the alarms. They would have to gain access first. Why would
they cut the power once in? How did they gain access? What were they hopeing to steal from a lowly grade first school? How did the burgler jump a
height that I couldn't do with the aid of a pole volt, and a 15 foot run up?
To Me, I cannot think of any reason or logical answers to it, and so I put it in my own "To Be Explained".
One other thing no damage other than 'power out' and some furniture/books scattered was caused, so it wasn't an act of vandalism either.
It certainly something I will never forget.
Hope the above was an interesting read for some.
