It may not be Mars Attacks, but two recent UFO sightings over the city has a paranormal investigator interested.

Brian Vike, an investigator at https://canadaufo.blogspot.com/, said two separate witnesses reported coloured lights hovering over Sarnia earlier this month.

“It’s weird stuff,” Vike said from his home in Houston, British Columbia. “When have these lights come to a screeching halt in the sky, I don’t know what that is.”

The Sarnia incidents took place on October 8 and 9. The first occurred shortly after 11:30 p.m.

“I saw a bright orange object moving fast, then slowed down. It was weird, I thought I was the only one who seen it,” wrote the witness, who’s name Vike keeps confidential.

The second sighting occurred at 12:19 a.m. the next day.

“I live in Port Huron, Michigan and am looking east towards Sarnia,’ the witness said. “There is a small, bright light flashing between red and white. It hasn’t moved for over 5 minutes now and appears to be too close to be any type of star.”

Vike said the sightings don’t sound like aircraft or balloons and are properly classified as UFOs. But just because it’s an unidentified flying object doesn’t mean E.T. or Yoda is behind the wheel, he said.

“When people tell me that they’ve seen extraterrestrials I tell them to slow down. But just because there isn’t a conventional answer doesn’t mean you throw it away.”

This wasn’t Vike’s first UFO in Sarnia. In July 2008, an unidentified flying object was reported by three people who saw a white square-shaped craft fly over an east Street apartment building. It was reportedly 30 feet wide,10 feet high and made no sound as it moved east overhead.

The three witnesses said the object had a black strip down the middle and was flying 300 to 400 feet off the ground.

Vike wades through hundreds of reports annually and only posts those “with a little meat.” The subject amazes some and encourages skepticism and debate from others.

“A good portion of the people these days believe that there is a possibility of life out there,” he said. “It’s the big question, is there alien life in the universe?”

Three More Bigfoot Sightings Reported

 Brian Vike's Favorite Cases.

 Newspaper Article.

By Jennifer McIntosh.

Houston Today News.

Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research is still trying to verify three Sasquatch sightings in Moricetown.

“Since I got the initial call, I’ve had no other information,” Vie said. “As near as I can tell, the sightings all happened after the end of September but I have called and called but no one is calling me back.”

The lady who called on the morning of Halloween, told Vike that there had been a rash of sightings on the native reserve. Unfortunately without talking to someone who could give a first-person account, Vike said the information is hearsay at best.

Vike got the details from the first account from the woman’s mother.

“Allegedly, she was walking out to the mailbox and this thing walked in front of her,” Vike said. “But I called and called and got nowhere so I am thinking this is a little fishy.”

Another woman apparently told friends that she had seen a Sasquatch peeking in someone’s window.

The last report allegedly involved a school bus driver who saw the creature standing in a field.

The sightings follow a summer filled with reports throughout the Pacific Northwest.

Sightings in late July and August brought about speculation from paranormal specialists as to what the creature might be up to.

In addition to sightings in the Bulkley Valley, Larry Sommerfield, a self-proclaimed Sasquatch hunter from terrace had a cast that he claimed was a Sasquatch print.

Vike said the area has always had some connection to the paranormal.

“In 2002-2002, this area was dubbed the UFO capital of the world,” Vike said.

“There was just so much activity between here and Burns Lake. Now it seems to be Sasquatches.”

Vike said he has gotten calls from the Discovery Channel and the Life Network about the amount of paranormal activity.

A sighting in Houston in late July by Delores Harrie garnered the attention of national media outlets.

Harrie saw the creature out at her home on Buck Flats Road on July 28.

At 5:45 a.m. that morning, Harrie heard her dogs barking at the door. When she went down to investigate she saw that someone or something was rattling the door handle.

She eventually opened the door and the dogs were out like a shot, sniffing out something on the east side of her property.

When she looked out at the side of her house, she saw a creature that was walking on two legs.

“It was huge and it had long hair, not fur – kind of like you see on an ox and a reddish brown, the colour of the trees that are killed by the pine beetle,” said the woman. “And it moved so fast, by the time I opened my door it had run from the porch to the other side of the house.”

Once outside, the dogs pursued the creature as it continued along a dried up ravine and disappeared into a forested area. Her oldest dog didn’t return for three hours.

“I was worried but what do you do, tell people your dog is chasing Bigfoot?” she asked. “I drove up and down the road, looking for him and eventually he came back.”

After Harrie’s report, there was a report on the Telkwa High Road and some sightings in Campbell River.

Vike said all the attention around UFO and Sasquatch sightings is good for the area.

“It gets people’s attention because – whether you believe it or not – it is different,” he said. “I think it’s good for all the communities in the area.”

More UFO Sightings Reported - Additional Witnesses Come Forward After Recent Article

Echo Editor

Airdrie Echo — A British Columbia-based UFO researcher says a story which appeared in the Echo in September regarding sightings in the Airdrie area has spurred others to come forward with their experiences with strange lights in the sky.

Brian Vike, director of HBCC UFO Research and a regular contributor to TV and radio shows as a UFO expert, said numerous sightings of unidentified objects in the area over the past months has ensured that Airdrie has entered the lexicon of the UFO community.

"I do a weekly radio show (in B.C.) and I mentioned to the host that I have received a number of reports from the (Airdrie) area and we talked about the latest one, which came in on air," Vike said.

"I have been doing many radio shows (in Canada and the U.S.) and I always include information about the sightings in your area."

The original article contained a rundown of three of the most recent sightings in the area which occurred from July through September. That article can be found at www.airdrieecho.com under the archive section.

Since that time, Vike has received reports of more sightings which have occurred recently. These include:

- Aug. 18, 2003, 2:30 p.m. – According to Vike, a man called HBCC UFO Research’s toll-free UFO hotline to report a strange sight he witnessed while driving on Highway 2 from Calgary to Airdrie.

"He watched a small white light cross the highway in the distance ahead of him and the ball of light turned in his direction. The witness said he observed the light getting closer and all of a sudden the object stopped – still a ways away from him – and changed from a ball of light into a craft of some type. He reported no sound being heard. I asked if he might be able to determine the size of it and he said that when it was in the distance, it could have been approximately the size of his fingernail but when it headed in his direction and got very close, in his words, ‘It was huge.’"

The witness said the object came to a complete stop and sat stationary for a period of time before he lost sight of it.

- Sept. 15, 2003, 8:33 p.m. – (The following is an e-mail report received by Vike.) "I noticed an article in the Airdrie Echo the other day and wondered if you had an explanation for something my daughter and I saw Friday night (Sept. 26). We were looking west of the Big Dipper and saw what looked like an exceptionally bright star (brighter than anything I have seen before).

"We were trying to figure out if it was a planet or something, and it just dimmed out to nothing in a matter of 10 seconds or less. It didn’t move at all, just dimmed to a faint point, then we couldn’t see it anymore.

- Oct. 27, 2003, 11 p.m. – Vike said a man called him Nov. 3 to make a report after reading the Echo article.

"He was talking to his neighbours and they asked him if he had witnessed anything strange on Oct. 27 at around 11 p.m. He said no and asked what it was these folks saw.

"The couple said they were outside of their home looking west toward the mountains and witnessed five very bright flashes in different parts of the sky. All the flashes that were witnessed were very low in the horizon and at least 100 times brighter than a regular flash one would see from a camera.

"Also, the flashes were very large in size. They also mentioned the lights were at a great distance away from their location."

Having been a UFO researcher for many years, Vike said his routine is to first attempt to offer such rational explanations as weather patterns, satellites or meteors for such sightings.

"I do know that (UFO sightings) is sometimes a very strange topic... but I honestly do look for rational explanations for such sightings," he said. "Most times, I can offer an explanation of what the folks witnessed, but then I have many cases which also go unsolved."

UFO Reported Sightings Down No

Posted: November 18, 2008

HBCC UFO Research Note: Every now and then I come across someone's article, or a person may email me saying pretty much UFO sightings have slowed down over the years. Each time I read these comments I must say I have to shake my head and wonder what planet these folks are located on, as they sure are not from the planet Earth. It is actually frustrating to hear comments such as these as the folks are certainly not looking around the internet to see what is taking place and to see who is receiving what.

There are stacks of UFOligists all around the world who are receiving reports from people over what they have observed in the day or night sky.

Speaking just for myself here at HBCC UFO Research, sighting reports are certainly flowing in and there is the odd day that I might not have a report in my inbox. On other days, it is all I can do to keep up. So I thought I would give a small example that has showed up here in the way of a photo of a stack of reported sightings. Now this batch goes back to June of 2008 up until today, November 18, 2008. I have another stack of reports which had been packed up into a box and put away as I do run out of room in the small office. So I am not including in the photo 5 months worth of cases/reports.

I should mention that this stack of printed out sighting reports weighs a total of 25pounds.

Canadian UFO Sighting Reports - 289 Reported Sightings As Of August 16, 2008

August 16, 2008

Brian Vike

British Columbia leading in the number of reported sighting so far.

Total number of Canadian reported sightings so far for 2008 is 289 cases. Running Count

Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research can be reached at 250 845 2180. But please note, this number is to be used only for anyone wanting to file a UFO report or the media if they would like to contact me. Or you can write to me through the HBCC UFO Research website.

Update takes us through up until August 16, 2008

*HBCC UFO Research* and *UFOINFO* together have received 289 written (and audio) UFO sighting reports from January 1, 2008 up until August 16, 2008 and I am sure the total number will climb as we still have a little over four months left in 2008.

British Columbia in 2008 leads the Canadian provinces with 119 reported sightings, followed by Ontario with 78 cases.

Below is a break down on reports received by HBCC UFO Research and UFOINO from January 1, 2008 to August 16, 2008.

HBCC UFO Research Note on the total number of received by August 16, 2008. The numbers below relate to what we have received from January 1, 2008 and the numbers will climb throughout 2008, or until the end of this year.

Sighting reports from January 1, 2008 up to August 16, 2008

British Columbia - 119 reported sightings)

Ontario - 78 reported sightings

Alberta - 23 reported sightings

Nova Scotia - 13 reported sightings

Quebec - 17 reported sightings

Manitoba - 12 reported sightings

Saskatchewan - 11 reported sightings

New Brunswick - 12 reported sightings

Newfoundland - 4 reported sightings

Yukon - 0

Total number of Canadian reported sightings so far for 2008 is 289 cases.

The sightings range from meteor sightings, aircraft, stars, the ISS, etc. Although many of the sightings were certainly explainable, there were some really amazing cases in which no answers could be found and I am still looking for a rational explanation for some events.

One of the most amazing UFO events took place between Houston and Burns Lake, British Columbia on August 3, 2008 where two men were stopped by a UFO which was hovering in front of their vehicle, not once byt twice on the same evening. Also on August 8, 2008 in the same general area, Uncha Lake South Of Burns Lake, British Columbia a number of eyewitnesses watched a large platform with two circle objects attached to it floating/drifting across the evening sky and finally disappearing over a local mountain. This craft?UFO was estimated to be 200 to 500 feet in length.

I should also add the Okanagan in British Columbia is again proving to be a Canadian hotspot for reported sighting. In particular Vernon, B.C. has been a very active area.

Other amazing cases came in from Ontario and other provinces as well. I would also like to note, the 289 reported sightings came into just *HBCC UFO Research* and *UFOINFO*. There are many other UFO organizations across Canada and in the United States that are receiving Canadian UFO cases. So the total will be much greater for each of the Canadian provinces by the end of the year.

I couldn't even guess how many UFO reports were reported from the United States and other areas of the world. Most sightings do come into us from the United States and we are very happy to receive them, actually some of the best cases are coming from the U.S. and go back numerous years.

Like I always tell folks, no matter when the UFO event took place, please send in your report, either to HBCC UFO Research or UFOINFO as we are here to help where we can, and are extremely interested in what the witness has to say. I also keep harping on an important part of this UFO topic, and that is that the witness who is reporting to us, is that their private/personal information is completely confidential.

Well in the next four months we shall see what other interesting cases come into us. Don't forget to file your sightings, new or old.
