V Shaped Craft Seen Over Ladysmith Virginia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  December 3, 2011

Time:  6:15 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 1

Number of Objects: 1

Shape of Objects: Round light.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: Going down 95-S just past Ladysmith, Virginia I saw a big bright round light moving from right to left. I had to look backwards to see it cross the sky. It was about the height of a commercial airliner.

The light was about a foot wide and had a bluish glow across the bottom of it. Once it crossed over 95-S, I looked at it from behind and it looked V shape with a white ball in the middle. It was larger than any plane I ever saw. UFO ?

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Unknown Craft Over The Outskirts Warwick QLD Australia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  September 9, 2011

Time:  Morning.

Number of witnesses: 3

Number of Objects: 3

Shape of Objects: Contrail icicle biological craft.

Full Description of Event/Sighting: Hi, I live on the outskirts of Warwick Queensland Australia. A week ago my 3 year old son was pointing up into the sky, saying Dad look. I looked up and at first thought he was trying to show me a Kestrel hovering. I then saw something very unusual.

The clouds were moving from right to left on a clear sunny day and above the clouds was what looked like a contrail. However this contrail did not disperse like normal contrails, it maintained its course and looked like a very long icicle. There were two more that followed it and looked as if they were in formation.

They were not travelling very fast. I have photos of the anomalies. This is not the first time I have encountered UFO'S.

I spotted one in 1979 at Chatton Sandyfords farm in Northumberland. The other one was spotted in 1997 hovering in the sky next to Dunstanburgh Castle with two Tornado Aircraft in pursuit on the east coast of England.

Kind regards.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Silver Craft Hovering Over The Trees At Plainsboro New Jersey

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  1986

Time:  N/A.

In 1986 my mother was driving on Cranberry Road, in Plainsboro, NJ., taking my brother to football practice and she witness a silver craft hovering over the trees that with was able to fit at least 4 large airplanes. 

This road was 25 mph and she was traveling about 10 mph to a slow crawl for about a half mile. My mom was straddled when a car came up behind her blowing his horn in a hurry and past her in that moment the craft repositioned it self and took off.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Oblong Shaped Craft/UFO And Other Objects Around It Over Watford U.K.

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

 Date:  August 17, 2007

Time:  Approxamtlty 9:15 p.m.

Hi there, I would like to email you regarding something that myself and someone else with me saw on the evening of Friday, August 17, 2007 at around 9:15 p.m. I had finished up rehearsing some music at the basement studios in Watfors and was walking toward my car. The sky was still quite light with some clouds around.

I looked up at the sky and what I saw was very odd. There was a light which was oblong shaped in the sky, it was stationary, standing up on the narrow end (so that the long edges were horizontal). At first I thought it was a reflection on my glasses, but when I moved my head, the object did not move with the movement of my head.

Whatever this thing was, it wasn't really that high up as it was sitting just below the cloud cover. There were also black streaks in the sky near this object. They were straight black lines, very well defined. I don't think they were vapor trails as they did not break up or diffuse in any way.

The oblong shaped light then rotated by around 90 degrees and then orientated into a horizontal position. The color of this shape turned into black and separated into two pieces. I also noticed some black objects, two of them I think, sort of hovered around the shape.

They were slightly elongated circles, but one edge looked sharp. One other thing I noted was a white (a vapor trail this time) of what looked like a missile heading for this shape. (this happened before the shape changed color or orientation and before I saw the other small objects).

I wasn't the only person who saw this. I called the manager of the studio outside and he also witnessed this. I really don't know what to make of all this. I was trying whilst standing outside with (name removed) to try and reason what were seeing. Neither of us could understand what this was. I would be grateful for your views on this as I have never seen or heard of anything like this.

Thank you to the witness for the interesting report.

A Huge Unknown Craft/UFO In The Sky Over Willetton Western Australia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  June 9, 2007

Time:  11:35 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Willetton

Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Large, circular.

Full Description of event/sighting: I was leaving work and walking to my car when I saw a large object fairly low in the sky. I was stopped in my tracks because it was just so large. 

It was moving across the sky from a North Easterly direction, I thought it must have been a helicopter with its spot light pointing right in my direction. That would maybe explain the size of the light. Then I realized that: 

A. -  It was the same colour as one of our orange street lights.

B. - Our police choppers use white spot lights.

C. - The light didn't move, and I could see no "beam" of light that such powerful search lights emit. 

D. - It was moving too fast, definitely too fast to be a chopper, but within reach of a jet.

It wasn't a chopper, I thought it would have to be an air craft of some sort. After watching it for another minute I was certain that:

A. -  There were no leading lights, wing lights or whatever they are called. They blink, each air craft has multiples of them and they are different colours. We have a small air port nearby (Jandakot) and there are often prop driven planes in the air. Likewise there is a larger air port (international) further to the east. So aircraft are a common and familiar for me sight.

B. - It was just too big to be a jet, if it was a jet, I should be able to hear it. It wasn't a cigar shape or anything stupid like that, it was just a big orange ball that was slightly squashed in the middle.

I started recording it for a few seconds on my phone, but stopped. I felt silly thinking it could be something unexplained. Sure it was huge, had no leading lights and was moving faster than a prop plane or helicopter could move, but still, this is Perth! And a camera phone isn't exactly a worthy medium.

It was just as I was thinking the above when it moved. It moved so damn fast, right towards the ocean (West). The light seemed to halve in size, but that could've just been due to the fact that it moved so fast. A building obstructed it after a second but as I sprinted to the side of the building to get a clear view it was already gone.

We (Australia) do not have a single damn jet that can move that fast, it cleared the sky in seconds! Every hair on my body stood on end at that point. I've just spent the last half hour staring in awe at the sky, yes my neck is sore and no I didn't see this thing again.

What I did see however were numerous planes, a few far to the east where our cities main airport is, and a prop driven one heading to the smaller Jandakot airport. Not a single one of them looked anything like this thing. Out of curiosity I tried recording one of them with my phone so I could compare the results. Standing in my backyard I recorded a small propelled craft, looking at the recording I could barely see it. Looking at the few seconds of footage taken from a well lit car park (much more light pollution than my back yard has) the difference is amazing. That's how big this damn thing was, you can actually see it in a quick recording taken from a crappy Nokia in a well lit car park. Am I kicking myself for not recording as long as possible, more than anyone can know, I just want to be able to watch it again, so I never forget.

A believer is born, Sigh, I don' think I'll look at the sky in the same way again. The skeptic in me says "come on", and is going to make me check out to see if America have any carriers stationed offshore of Fremantle. It could've been a Super Hornet, but realistically there's no chance. They would not have been authorized for such a low fly over, plus they are noisy as hell, and if it had poured on the juice to get moving that fast the light would not have diminished but flared bright and hot.

Sorry this is so long. In a way writing it out so clearly will help me remember the event, it's one that I think is worth doing so too.

Oh, one last thing, this is almost certainly completely coincidental but it certainly added in some way to the sight. My car's central locking wouldn't work! Hah, first time that's ever happened (ever), though it started working after I tried half a dozen more times. But anyway, there were no power outs etc., my phone was working after all, just thought I'd mention it.

Once again, sorry for the length.

Thank you to the witness for the wonderful report.

Smoky Dark Gray Triangle/UFO Flying Over New Westminster British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  April 16, 2007

Time:  10:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: New Westminster

Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Triangle.

Full Description of event/sighting: I was standing at my front window lighting a cigarette. I looked up and saw what I thought was a Very large gaggle of geese. Then I realized it was too dark too see them as white, and the V stayed consistent, so I looked closer.

It was coming from the north/east and over the corner of my building. It was then I realized what I thought was geese was actually lights. I saw the outline of a triangle, it was a smoky dark gray in color, and the lights were in a perfect V, not moving like geese do.

I ran to my back/bathroom door to see where it was going but by the time I got the door open I could no longer see it.

My first sighting was when I was 11 in California, my second sighting was in Vancouver, B.C. when I was 18 (reported that to the airport) then again in Langley B.C. 2 years ago, but they were all just far distant lights moving too fast to be planes or helicopters.

This was the first time I actually saw something that appeared to be a very large ship, about a city block big and flying lower than the airplanes.

This is not a joke, and nobody believes me.

Thank you to the witness for the interesting report.

Navy Personal Observe A 30 Foot In Diameter Red UFO/Craft From The USS Preserver

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  1984

Time:  Evening.

In 1984 I was a US Navy Diver stationed on board the USS Preserver, ARS-8. We were on a routine excursion to Pensacola, FL from our home port in Little Creek, VA to recover the wreck of a downed Navy Trainer, A-4 I believe.

En-route headed south just east of Cape Hatteras we noticed that our stern running light was out and needed to replace it as dusk was approaching. The aft third of an ARS is all salvage deck and diving space (hydraulic and electrical gear below along with the diving locker) and as such was our responsibility for all maintenance and repairs.

Not a big deal as all that was needed was to lower the flag staff and replace the bulb. The evening meal was being served on the mess decks and while we were changing out the bulb and BS-ing when we saw what appeared to be a flare off to the east.

Oddly enough the 'flare' rose in the sky, disappeared or extinguished then reappeared and whizzed off in a near vertical motion. This was most unusual, but since we thought it was a flare, we reported it to the bridge as a normal course of procedure. We were speculating on the odd occurrence and why a 'flare' would behave in such a peculiar manner.

Could it have been a UFO? Our fellow sailors were now coming out of the galley, one by one and were gathering as we were describing what had happened. For the most part everyone thought we were just being ignorant and dismissed our speculations as just that.

By now it was dark and a very clear night. While in the midst of our banter between divers and the rest of the crew, one of the non-partisans to our little story became pale and his eyes opened as if he had just seen a ghost. He pointed into the sky off the starboard gunwale and we all saw it, a red orb.

This light reminds me for all the world like the little trailing red UFO on Close Encounters (I am just watching it for the umpteenth time which is what caused me to look up 'glowing red light UFO' on Google. This red orb hung with us for awhile and seemed to be about 30' in diameter, though it had no real form.

Our boat only ran at about 13 knots, so this thing was just keeping pace and made not a single sound. We all hustled up to the signal bridge to try to catch a glimpse through the "big eyes", the mounted binocular telescope used by the signal watch.

While on the signal bridge (which happens to be directly above the bridge of the ship where Ops and the Captain are situated) we could hear radio chatter from Coast Guard vessels and other vessels calling the Preserver to inquire about the contact that was showing exactly on our position.

In almost an instant the red orb took off at what seemed like an unimaginable speed again with no sound. We spent the rest of the night looking up towards the heavens, but never saw another thing like the red orb that would mark its place in our memories for the rest of our lives!

A Flying V Shaped Craft/UFO Over New Westminster British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Last Wednesday of July 2005

Time:  9:50 p.m.

Location of Sighting: New Westminster, BC.

Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: V.

Full Description of event/sighting: I was laying on a table looking up at the stars admiring them. I was in the south-western portion of New Westminster at a school, and these lights appear and there is no sound. 

They look like lights along the inside edges of an indentation of a flying V.  But are very low to city. It was to my left and heading towards Port Moody. It struck me as so odd that I wrote it down on a piece of paper and drew what it looked like. 

I might not have the piece of paper still, but I remember things pretty well, maybe not the exact time or date, but pretty close. I remember things by seeing them.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

Large Tubular Craft/UFO With Lights Disappears Into Fog Along The Kootenay River Nelson British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Approximately ten  years ago. (March 1997) (?)

Time:  About 6:10 a.m.

Message: Hello! I just found your site while browsing and thought I'd like to relate my UFO experience of approximately ten  years ago. Now retired, I once worked for the city of Nelson B.C.

I left for work one morning at my usual time of about 6:10 a.m. I believe it was early Spring, probably March. I had to drive about four miles west of town, pick up my work mate and then the two of us would continue to our work site just a couple miles west of town which is downstream on the Kootenay river. 

This morning was cool and the narrow valley we live in and at that time, can have patches of fog hanging above the river here and there. The road to my workmates home climbs up in the valley and I can get a view down towards the river.

As I'm travelling along, I looked toward the river and noticed what looked to me to be a large tubular balloon (like a sausage) with three large lights along its side. Each light slowly blinking a different colour.

Although I looked down toward it, it seemed to be floating along, perhaps 100 feet above the river in a horizontal direction downstream. Suddenly it disappeared as it entered into a patch of fog. 

I picked up my buddy, and mentioned it to him on our way to work. My best guess as to it’s size would be possibly five feet thick and twenty feet long, a ratio of 1:4. 

Two mornings later, he said that he also had seen it, the evening before. We couldn't figure it out, so soon forgot about it. I must apologize, as this is not the correct module to be typing this account. Sorry for the inconvenience! 

The name of the area is called Taghum and is popular for UFOs due to a series of hydro electric generating stations nearby.  Sincerely.

Thank you to the witness for their interesting report.

Metallic Disk Shaped Craft/UFO Moving In And Out Of The Clouds Over Muncie Indiana

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  March 16, 2007

Time:  Daylight sighting.

Location of Sighting: Muncie, IN
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Disk.

Full Description of event/sighting: My son stopped by this evening and related this to me. He and his friend, both grown men, were standing out in the yard talking when they noticed something moving very quickly in and out of the clouds. 

The object seemed metallic as the sunlight was reflected off it as it zipped, noiselessly in and out of two large clouds, flipping and zig-zagging at very fast speeds. A jet soon entered the area, they could hear the jet and see the vapor trails. But, the other object had no sound and left no trails. 

When the jet appeared, the object went behind the clouds and stayed there until the jet was gone. Then the object reappeared and continued to "play" for a few minutes before it zoomed out of sight.  

His friend stopped by this morning and told me pretty much the same story. Both prefaced their account with, "You're not going to believe what I saw."  

My son, who is a pretty low-key sort of person, was very excited and animated while he relayed his experience to me. These guys are not the sort to believe every story that comes about, but after seeing what they saw yesterday, they know there is something "out there" that is way beyond our current technology flying the skies of our world.

Witness Reports Lit Up White Saucer Shaped Craft/UFO Missouri City Texas

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  July 16, 2007

Time:  11:07 p.m.

Hi Brian, I just want to report the strangest thing at Missouri City, Texas (Houston suburb).

I believe I saw at least two UFO's maybe three. It happened at 7/16/07 at about 11:07 p.m. and I felt like I needed to go outside in the front yard. I looked up at the stars and it was a beautiful lit night.

It got my attention in the distance on a bright light which I thought was a star, but underneath it was a flashing lighted star (twinkling). It was stationary not moving so it wasn't a plane.

The thing is I ran inside and got my video camera and I turned on the zoom lens and the little twinkling star was moving and looked like a craft. It was really cool, I have to admit it.

I zoomed in on the bigger white star and low and behold it was a bigger saucer shaped craft, white lit up and twirling with three circles moving in like different direction clockwise and counter clockwise. I would have never guessed it without the zoom lens. It looks like a white bright star.

The objects stayed in the sky for a long time cause I checked again at like 7/17/07 at like 1:07 and they were still out there they moved though more northern.

Any reports of sighting in Houston at that time just curious. I have no idea what they were but it was awesome. I think there was a itty bitty one too but that was seen on the video and not sure of it. Anyway any news out there? Thanks for any info.

A Triangular Shaped Craft/UFO Massena New York's St. Lawrence County NY

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Witness referring to report link below. (Approximately 1989 - maybe a year or two off)

Time:  Approximately 2:00 a.m.

I was recently speaking with a coworker about an object a friend and I had seen when we were in 7th or 8th grade, when I decided to look for other UFO stories in the area where used to live. I was specifically looking for a news blurb that ran in the Watertown Daily Times from the same summer as my experience, but no luck. I did find a good story on your site though.

While the timing is off by a year or two the craft shape is very similar to what we experienced. I guess maybe I should share my story with you, as increased knowledge will help us discover what exactly the anomalous objects are, and why we tend to be so fascinated with them.

So Here's My Story:

In the Summer leading up to 7th or 8th grade I was asked to watch some tents for my church's Vacation Bible School. These tents were set up for a week or so in one location, and each night several persons were charged with watching over them, just in case. This night it was my friend's father, my friend, and myself. While his father slept we stayed up until about 2:00 in the morning playing ping pong in the Rec hall. I think we may have dented the last ball which is why we decided to head outside.

We left building to hear a low hum, and as we looked back over our shoulders towards the church we saw a triangular shaped object with several colored lights drifting about 100 feet above us. The path seemed wrong, as this would have meant the craft traveled through the church's structure, and would continue into the side of a 10 story "retirement" complex, if its path was extrapolated backwards and forwards in a straight line. It appeared to be moving in a west to east track, with a slight southward drift. It did avoid the high-rise but it didn't make any sort of turn on an y-x axis or roll a turn like a conventional aircraft.

As we looked upwards at the object it had a yellowish tint to it with several lights including red ones along the bottom. As it passed directly over us, it also emitted an odd red "smoke" that didn't dissipate as say, a campfire's smoke would. It kind of spread out and phased away, like a cheesy special effect. My friend and I must have watched it for about 5-10 minutes as it slowly slipped by, without doing anything really except for the odd puff of smoke out the back.

The next day I told my mom, and both of our respective parents made some comments about staying up all night and drinking Mountain Dew. Nothing much was said about that for a while, but a few weeks later, my mom did inform me of a small blurb that appeared in the Watertown Daily Times. In the article a woman reported seeing basically the same object (she thought the craft had yellow lights, not a yellow coloration) near the southern end of the state (I want to say around Long Island.) I haven't seen the article since I read it at the library, and I'm guessing it was an AP wire space filler for a small local paper.

Here's something about geography of the region where we were- Massena is one of the bigger towns (at 10k people roughly) in New York's St. Lawrence county, the largest county size wise. The areas outside of the towns are fairly barren, woods, dairy farms, low density housing, etc. To the south are the Adirondack mountains, SW of Massena is Fort Drum, and to the east was Plattsburgh Air Force base, to the north is the St. Lawrence river and then Canada. The town sits about equal driving times from both Ottawa, Ontario and Montreal, Quebec.

Thanks for reading this, I'll try to provide more details if I can, but I don't want to speculate much more. I really should have written this incident down when it was fresh in my mind.

Thank you to the witness for this amazing report of the triangular shaped craft. There are some very interesting things that area mentioned in this report.

A Large Craft/UFO Makes A U Turn Over Lincoln Nebraska

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date: October 10, 2007

Time:  Approximately 8:30 p.m.

Hello Brian, we witnessed a strange sight on the above referenced date and were wondering if anyone else reported seeing this. We haven't a clue what it was that we saw. 

I can only describe it as a very large aircraft, no lights, no sound, faint, but visible against the night sky. Imagine a boomerang shape, but smoothed out at the curve. 

It flew north for a few seconds, then made far too sharp of a turn-around for a normal aircraft, and continued back to the south. 

We lost track of it after that.  It was visible to us for about 2-3 minutes. There were 4 of us who saw it and this took place in the near-south neighborhood. 

Any insights you may have on this would be greatly appreciated.  Are there military aircraft in the area that would fit this description that you are aware of?

Looking forward to your thoughts on the matter! Thanks!

Thank you to Scott H. Colborn - Host of the "Exploring Unexplained Phenomena" for sending along this report.

A Black Chevron Shaped Craft/UFO Flying Over Las Vegas Nevada (Photo)

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

 Hello Brian, I've sent you a sighting before from Las Vegas. I just thought you'd be interested in seeing this picture. I take photos of planes spraying, always hoping to catch other things. I did not see this when taking the photo and it's the only thing out of a whole roll that had anything 'else' in it.

Maybe with all the photos you get, you might have seen something like this before, I haven't. It reminds me of the 'thing' a bit, only bent.

PS - I sure hope this is the right picture, should be a black chevron shaped thing in it. I've been having a hell of a time trying to get this to you. My pc went down and now it doesn't work the same as before for pictures.

It's amazing the life out there. Thank you.

Dark Triangular Craft/UFO Langford British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  February  Approximately year 1999

Time:  Approximately 1:00 a.m.

Location of Sighting: Langford BC from our backyard.

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Triangle.

Full Description of event/sighting: Sorry to be fuzzy on the exact date but it was along time ago and after our encounter we came into the house and each drew our rendition of what we saw. I'm in the process of looking for our drawings from that night. The reason we were out in the yard at that hour was it was supposed to be one of the best nights in decades to see meteor showers.

We weren't disappointed and had some long colorful shooting stars fill up the sky as we laid on sleeping bags in our backyard (actually on the driveway for the clearest view). My husband was getting frustrated because he kept missing the awesome ones I was seeing because he had been looking the other way.

This went on a few times until finally he said tell me exactly where you're looking and I'll look there too. All of a sudden from our far left (east facing direction) we saw a dark shape in the sky. It was a triangle of sorts with a bit of a curve to the shape. Our two drawings did not totally match the outer shape but the body.

What did match was the fact that there were perfectly round holes going across the body of this thing in rows. The object was black but the holes looked even darker in color, it moved quite slowly straight across the sky and made no noise what-so-ever. We both exclaimed, "what the heck is that" and watched it go across our sight line and disappear behind the roof of the house.

We probably watched it for about 10 seconds and were not able to figure out how high it was or how big it was because there was nothing to compare it too. If there had been a sound it might have helped us gauge how high up it was. If it was a toy of some kind it still would have made a sound. We were completely blown away and happy that both of us had seen because we knew no one would believe it.

I called our local observatory the following day hoping others had seen it and there was an explanation but they politely told me to chalk it up to a unique experience. We've never forgotten this and have never seen anything else unusual in our lives, but reading an article on you in our local paper today and seeing the reference to a triangle object made me want to write and share our story. It would sure be nice to know what this thing was. Take care and thanks for letting me share.

Thank you to the witness for the excellent report.

Saucer Shaped Craft/UFO And Strange Creature La Crescenta California

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  Late 1975

Time:  Approximately 4:00 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 6

Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Thick saucer shaped.

Full Description of event/sighting: This is mostly in regards of the 1975 sighting/screams in Thousand Oaks, Ca. La Crescenta is about forty miles south, and only about five or six miles from Jet Propulsion Laboratories, which is in Pasadena Ca.

I do not if these experiences have any bearing on the family from Thousand Oaks, but here it is:

I had a friend over the house late in 1975. I was sixteen years old at the time, and we were outside talking, and looking at a baseball game in progress across the street at the park. The weather was clear, plenty of daylight left.  Although honestly I did not see this saucer shape appear, It was suddenly there, hovering over the sky to the North of us. It is difficult for me to tell exactly how high, or far away it was, but the UFO appeared huge. 

Excuse me, I mean HUGE!  It stayed in the air for some time, as we had time to observe it, I had time to run into the house and get my mother, brother, and father to come out and look at it.  It was hovering over the park, between us and JPL. I remember that it had some lights on the side, rotating around the surface of the craft. 

It hung in the air, but was not totally motionless, as though it kept trying to stabilize itself, kind of like it was on a gyro that wasn't functioning properly. It stayed around for about two or three minutes, than tilted and then left the area at a high rate of speed. Aside from the aforementioned witnesses, I am not sure that anyone else had seen the object.

Now, concerning the screaming that the folks in Thousand Oaks that happened around the same time:

We had some incidences of screaming around here about that time, also. If memory serves correctly, it was just before the above mentioned sighting. Crescenta valley is in a bowl shaped area, created by the mountains to the north of Burbank, Ca. and the Angeles crest forest north of that. 

We lived pretty much at the base of the Burbank mountain. There is an aqueduct that was cut out in the early seventies, for flood control. Across the flood control (which was fenced off) lies the Crescenta Valley Park, which is directly across the street from my parents house. There are night baseball games (little league) and lights in the park.

It was dark, not too late at night, and some friends and I were sneaking a cigarette in the park, next to the flood control trench when we heard a god-awful scream which reverberated off of the hill, neither animal nor human, but it would be more to the animal side of noise. The three of us about jumped out of our skins, and were trying to see across the trench as to what could have made that particular noise.

It may be important to note that the lights of the baseball field had a hard time penetrating this far towards the trench to the hills, and we could not see where it had emanated from. We were in the midst of discussing what had caused the ruckus, and noticed some spectators from the game wandering over towards the trench, kind of angling away from us, so I knew we were not the only ones to hear it. After awhile, these folks left back to the game.

Some time later, as we were still standing around, discussing the incident, we heard another scream across the trench. This time, we witnessed the strangest sight. What it appeared to be was some kind of kangaroo/Chupacabra looking animal about fifty yards away, towards the base of the hill.  It had to have been at least seven or eight feet tall, we could see its legs and tail fine, but it was kind of hard to see a face, as it fell within some shadows of light off the baseball field. 

We looked at it, it looked at us, and I really thought some guy rented a Halloween suit and was playing tricks on people. Our minds were changed however, when it ran away.  It took off going from zero to about forty miles an hour in an instant.  And it went straight into the hills. Straight up the hill. We couldn't follow it for long, but were able to kind of keep track of it by all of the noise it created beating through the brush. I still think of this from time to time, and a kangaroo keeps coming to mind.

As a side note, when I was stationed in the army in Germany, we were on patrol one night in the Black Forest region, late at night, on a small game trail when the whole squad heard a scream which echoed all over the place.  No kidding, the hair on my arms stood up. 

As we only had blanks for our rifles, we turned around and hightailed it out of there.  Here's the extra weird thing, across the animal trail that we had passed not five minutes before, there was a huge tree covering the trail.  Needless to say, nobody ran around it, we had so much adrenalin flowing we pretty much climbed/jumped the fallen tree, and pretty much ran all of the way back to the area of operation.

Thank you to the witness for the fascinating report.

Cylinder Shaped Craft/UFO Entirely Lit Up Kelowna British Columbia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  July 2, 2007

Time:  Approximately 11:00 p.m.

Hello Mr. Vike My name is (full name removed). I live on (removed) Road. Kelowna. On Monday night I was sitting on my front steps talking to my friend on the phone and saw something strange in the sky as well. This also may confirm the stories that my friend read in Fridays paper. Please feel free to call my at my home, so we can discuss this in better detail. Thank you for your time.

Brian Vike telephoned the witness on July 10, 2007 to see what other information I might be able to gather.

The witness tells me she had arrived home from a friends place and noticed another friend had left a message for her to call. The lady took her telephone outside as she was returning the call, plus having a cigarette.

As the two friends talked on the phone the witness noticed a long cylinder shaped light. Her first thoughts  were that she was just seeing an airplane, as she is close to where the flights fly directly overhead, but the woman went on to say the object was a little odd looking as it wasn't exactly on the normal flight path.

Plus there were not any of the normal NAV lights on this object. The entire craft was fully lit up. After approximately 3 or 4 minutes of viewing time it was gone, the witness said it was like someone turned off the light switch. (we are not sure if the craft moved quickly away from it's location, or with the lights out and due to the darkness the object just wasn't visible)

The object was stationary and not a sound was heard coming from it. It also wasn't sitting at a high altitude, lower than a small Cessna would fly at. Rather low she mentioned and there were also no flashing or blinking lights on it at all.

The lady mentioned to her friend on the telephone that possibly she may have just been witness to a UFO sighting. Both kidded around about what was seen and talked for a while longer then hung up.

On July 6, 2007 the witness gets a phone call from the same friend informing her about an newspaper article on UFO sightings that was reported in the local Kelowna newspaper. (Kelowna Capital News). This is when the lady decided to write an email to me asking if I would telephone her.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

A Disc Shaped Craft/UFO Halifax Nova Scotia

Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

Date:  November 8, 2007

Time:  Approximately 7:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: By the Lower Sackville off-ramp.

Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Disc shaped.

Full Description of event/sighting: I was driving home from school and getting close to my exit on the highway when I saw an unusually bright white light in the sky. It was far too bright to be either a star or an airplane. As I drove I glanced up every few seconds and noticed it gradually became very dim, then very bright again.

I took the Sackville exit and parked by the bus terminal to get a better look. I got out of the car, looked up at the object and noticed it also had dim flashing red lights. Then, it stopped moving, and began to move backwards.

After about 5 seconds it stopped again, then resumed going in the direction it was originally going. It then descended behind a building, so I got back in my car and drove around the building to keep watching it. When I got around the building, it was gone.


I told my parents later that night, and my mother said the night before she has seen 2 very bright white lights behind my neighbor's house around 6:30 pm, and they were continually fading in and out.

It seems our area is seeing a lot of activity lately. I was shocked to see how many reported sightings there have been in the past year.

Thank you to the witness for their report.
