Dawson Creek, Northern B.C. Fluorescent Emerald Green Light

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: Early 1970's Time: Approx: 1:30 a.m.

This is my third sighting of what I am sure was not of this planet in the last twenty-five years. The first was on our farm 6 miles from Dawson Creek in Northern BC. In the early 70's when sitting with relatives approx. 1:30 in the morning. A large fluorescent emerald green light came down on an angle stopped and you could see a red light then shine below it and it came straight down. The next day we went over to the field we were sure it landed in and couldn't find anything. Four (non-drinking) adults saw this. The two visiting from Alberta were strong Pentecostals who do not believe in UFO's or any such thing so I tried to explain it as a plane going down - which I knew it wasn't and they said "You know that was no plane".

Thank you to the witness for the interesting report.

North Of Fort St. John Three Saucer Shaped Objects

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: Early 1970s Time: Early afternoon

I was going to an auction sale North of Fort St. John about 30 miles in quite a remote area. It was a cold bright day. Early in the afternoon we could see the sun reflecting on something in the sky. We pulled over and parked, and behind the only small little cloud in the whole blue sky there were three saucer shaped objects staying in one position. We sat at least 15 min. and they did not move. There were no other vehicles or houses around so I'm not sure if anyone else saw them. This would have been in the early 70's.

Thank you to the witness for the interesting report

Noelville, Ontario UFO Lands In The Forest

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: Mid 1970's up to 1980 Time: 9:00 p.m.

Message: I was born in Sudbury Ontario and lived in Noelville until the age of 20. In the mid 1970's up to 1980, I have seen 2 UFO's that were very close. The first one was during winter and it appeared like it landed in the forest behind my grandmother's house. It was 9:00 p.m. during a weekday. My friend and I ran into the local restaurant to tell everyone, only to be laughed at. We wanted to go into the woods but were more scared of wolves than aliens. I was only in high school then. The next day in made front page of the Sudbury Star with sighting all the way to Detroit.

My second close sighting was at Bear Lake in Noelville. It was a summer night. The object appeared out of no where and hovered over the lake. Because it was such a calm night we could hear people talking from across the lake. Everyone came out to see it. It changed colors with every moved it made. It slowly followed the lake without making a sound. People got into their boats to follower it and as sudden as it appeared it disappeared.

I've seen many strange objects which I believe were UFO's but they were always too far away to get a good description.

My mom told me that in the 1960's at lunch time one appeared over our little village of Noelville. I barely remember that one.

Since I have moved away from the area in 1982 I have never had another experience.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

St. Albert, Alberta UFO

Posted: December 26, 2007

HBCC UFO Research: If anyone may have witnessed something unusual flying in the sky back on Easter in 1966 I would be grateful if you would please contact me over it with as much detail over the sighting as possible. Thank you, Brian Vike.

Date: Easter in 1966 Time: N/A

I was 15 years old on Easter in 1966 and lived in St. Albert, Alberta on Sir Winston Churchill Ave. A UFO was directly over our back fence. I don't recall any talk about a UFO sighting on Easter Sunday and I certainly didn't see it, but it still may have been too cold to hang out in the back yard and perhaps no one that I knew saw it. It was a small town but there was a religious line that was as divisive as in Ireland and I had few Catholic friends or acquaintances. I would be very interested to know if you have had any confirmations and more details. Thank you.

The person who filed this report was referring to another report from the same area.

Thank you to the person for the report.

Ontario Brothers Have A UFO Close Encounter

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: Approx: August 29, 1966 Time: Evening

I received a telephone call from a man by the name of Walter. He and his brother ended up having an unforgettable experience in Ontario.

It was late August of 1966 and Walter said this is one of those haunting things that comes up from ones memory from the distant past. Walter said over the years he and his brother have had some discussion over certain aspects of the event. He also noted that the brothers never talked about the experience to anyone for about two or three years after the event took place. They were quite reticent from openly speaking about it. When the men finally did start talking about it their story came in a fragmented way. Walter mentions that the differences in the brothers story were not actually the event itself, but rather the time sequence. After the two fellows really dove into what took place, Walter's brother was convinced that they were coming to their summer residence and Walter was convinced they were leaving to go home.

Another important note to this is that they wondered if the date of the sighting was correct, but after Walter started checking around finally was able to make contact with the owner of the newspaper for that time period and he was able to recall the event because there were others who were witness to some unusual sightings on that same day. Two reports were made and no explanation was found for what these witnesses reported. Also folks had reported seeing strange sights in the sky north of a small settlement along Highway 71 going from Corona to Fort Francis, Ontario. The government dismissed the apparent phenomena as a large release of incandescent swamp gas, the owner of the newspaper told Walter. Walter of course thought this was pretty amazing swamp gas as it retained an ellipsoidal shape and paced the two brothers vehicle for a long distance as they traveled down the highway, plus it could ascend vertically at a tremendous rate of speed. As Walter said, he had a hard time with the swamp gas explanation!

Walter describes what exactly was witnessed:

There is a tourist camp at Caliper Lake which is located approximately seven to eight kilometers south from Nester Falls in northwestern Ontario. Their vehicle had just passed south of Caliper Lake. In the back seat of their car were the family pets they were taking back home. The men had a large tabby cat by the name of Tiger, and a male bulldog by the name of Eric and last but not least a nile monitor which was kept in a box as the cat and the monitor didn't get along all that well. It is roughly 11:00 p.m. at night, the men heading south and they were passing Larson's Camp and noticed the lights still on at the camp. There was no other traffic on the highway at this time. Walter is in the passenger's seat and his brother is driving. Walter dozed off briefly and was awakened by his brother jabbing him telling him how bright it had become around the car. The witness said there was an intense bright light which lit up the entire area. Walter said it was so bright that they were able to see way off the road and into the forest. Also he turned around to look out the back window of the vehicle and it was lit up as well. As Walter is looking out the back, he can see the cat is sitting up close to the window very agitated, the dog is on the floor of the car moaning and the nile monitor has it's head out of the box with it's tongue working rapidly. The cat not bothering with it as it was hissing at something else.

Walter turned to his brother and said something had to be over top of the car. The speed at which they were traveling was about 60 miles an hour at that time. Also they had been listening to the radio when it started to get alot of static. As the fellow told me, at that time of night one would be able to pick up a number of radio stations as the reception is much better than during the daytime hours. They instantly tried other radio channels and all they heard from the different channels was static. Both men looking at one another in amazement, with a bright light sitting over top of them, the animals acting up in the car and now losing reception on the radio, they wondered what was going on!

Still traveling along the highway with an intense light above them, they were coming to a second hill, when in front of their vehicle, only about 200 to 400 meters away traveling over top the highway was a huge ellipse of white light. This object in front of them was pacing them and not far off the highway's surface. The men guessed the second object was about 10 to 15 meters off the ground. It seemed that one object was above them and one object was in front of them. Walter told me they were more curious than anything and sped up to see if they were able to catch up to the object in front of them, but as they did, the ellipse of white light stayed pretty much at the same distance away from their car. No matter how fast they drove, there was an equal distance between the object and vehicle.

(HBCC UFO Research Note: The distance the event took place in was approximately 25 kilometers. The time everything started was at 11:00 p.m. The men came to an intersection/small community called Finland. They came off the high ground, curved around on the highway and dropped down onto a straight stretch in a low lying area which was about a kilometer in distance. While on the straight stretch the light in front of them ascended vertically at an incredible rate of speed. Walter said if he was to count to four the object had completely vanished from their sight. It went that fast. As the object in front of them disappeared so did the light above the car. Walter said it just winked out. There may have been a split second between the two objects disappearing. The static on the radio cleared and they were able to pick up the radio stations once again.

Another peculiar thing they found was that they were traveling through Finland at about midnight when they realized that it had just taken them about an hour to travel the 25 kilometers. Like Walter said, they didn't travel less than 80 to 90 kilometers an hour. He said there was a hiatus, something happened in that period of time.

What Walter and his brother find puzzling is the time, (an hour to drive the 25 kilometers) that they have no explanation for.

Where was the missing time?

Walter saw a friend and told her about what had gone on, and how nothing seemed to make sense. She offered to try a regression session with him to see if he was able to recall anything that took place that evening. He agreed to give this a try as he wanted answers if possible as he said his brother and he have been arguing for years about the absent piece of time and the actual going and coming issue they can't seem to agree on. One brother thought they were on their way home, and the other believes they were traveling in the other direction away from home.

Apparently, through the regression and during this event the brother driving did stop the car. The brothers could not recall this taking place as they always felt they continued traveling the highway and did not stop at any time. Both men after stopping the vehicle got out and walked off to the right side of the road. They stood looking upwards and observed the light that had been above their car move off and hover above the trees close by. Walter recalled seeing what appeared to be portholes along the side of the craft. They apparently stood there for a few minutes watching it. Walter also has been trying to encourage his brother to go through regression in hopes of getting some more parts to the puzzle. So far his brother has been reluctant to go through this procedure. Walter also doesn't recall been taken aboard the craft and it was not brought out in the regression session that this did take place. So another mystery, were the men taken or not ?

The regression took place in 92/93 and HBCC UFO Research has telephoned the lady who preformed the regression and she told me that indeed the session did take place. Also Walter and the lady told me an audio tape of the session was recorded and we are trying to find this at this time.

I would also like to add that this gentleman who related this story to me, is a very credible man.

My deepest thanks to Walter for coming forward and telling his story. The audio clip of his story can be heard on the Jeff Rense radio program (http://www.rense.com/) in hour one - Brian Vike - B.C. UFO Phenomena with special guest Walter on February 18, 2005 in the show's archives. The way the gentleman goes step by step through the experience is one you do not want to miss.

Parksville, British Columbia Strange Lights

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: June 1969 Time: Late evening.

Location of Sighting: Parksville, B. C. Number of witnesses: 2 Number of objects: 3 Shape of objects: Lights.

Full Description of event/sighting: Late one summer evening I was on the beach in Parksville with a friend. At one point in the evening, I spotted two lights up island from us. It was hard to tell how far away they were, or how far apart the lights were. But they were in line with the airport and Canadian air force base at Comox, B. C.

I naturally assumed they were helicopters or flares. Sometime later I noticed that the two lights had not moved. There was no noise that we could hear, and there was no movement of the lights.

The evening was quiet, with no wind, so if they were helicopters, I thought we might have heard them. And judging by the size of the lights, I knew that if they were helicopters, they were closer to us than to Comox. Since there was no movement of the lights, I dismissed the possibility of them being flares.

About 20 to 30 minutes had passed at this time when suddenly the lights reappeared to our right and at a slightly different elevation. This time the lights stayed in this spot for at least 10 to 15 minutes, maybe more. The next time we looked, they were gone.

What makes this sighting so interesting, is that on this website, I found a report of a very similar sighting in New York, same month, same year.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Clarkson, Ontario Star-Like Object Darts Around

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: 1966/1967 ? Time: Evening

My friend (name removed) and I, aged 13 or 14, were 'UFO searching' (maybe spring or fall when it got dark earlier). We were in the school park looking up at the sky. It was filled with stars. After a time, we witnessed, way off in the distance, what seemed to be a star because it was white at first. It darted about the sky sporadically while changing colours (green, red, bright yellow). Then we saw others do the same. It was almost like watching them play a game of tag. I have no recollection of time or space after that or if we talked about the experience with anyone else.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Winnipeg, Manitoba Green Object In 1947 And Involved In Project Blue Book

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: Approx:1947 Time: Approx: 9:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Winnipeg Number of witnesses: 1 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Sphere.

Full Description of event/sighting: At the age of 13, I was larking about with a friend at a street corner under an incandescent street light. I happened to look up into the night sky and saw a dim emerald green object which would disappear if I looked directly at it. It was bigger than the moon and visibly cratered. My hair stood on end as though I was looking at a menacing ghost. My friend noticed my distraction and asked what was wrong. For some reason, I was too terrified to tell him what I was looking at. This might have been because I was scared I was hallucinating. Years later as an airman in the RCAF, I was watching an Aero Medicine WW2 fighter pilot training film on how to spot enemy aircraft at night. The technique required one not to stare directly at a suspected sighting but just off its suspected location. Once I understood the physiology of day and night vision, I realized that my sighting as a boy was not a hallucination. Further research brought me to an interesting article from a USAF radar site claiming that a spherical object was orbiting the earth on the shadow side. This and other characteristics suggested that extraterrestrials use asteroids to travel through space and that UFOs are shuttles.I was also involved in "Blue Book" while in the RCAF.

Thank you to the witness for the fascinating report.

Tuc-El-Nuit Lake Oliver, British Columbia 1950s Flying Saucer

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: Early to mid 1950's Time: Early afternoon.

Location of Sighting: Tuc-el-nuit Lake Oliver B.C. Number of witnesses: 1 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Saucer shape on top and bottom.

HBCC UFO Research Note: Now this is a really interesting sighting report since there appears to have been more people who witnessed this object as the person reporting mentions the radio station carried a news story on this craft being observed by others. I would like to request from other who were in that area at the time and if they saw this craft, would you please be kind enough to contact me here at HBCC UFO Research with the details of what you saw. Thank you, Brian.

Full Description of event/sighting: I recall I was 8 or 10 years old and playing by myself in our back yard on the west side of Tuc-el-Nuit Lake.

I was not looking at the lake but was facing north. A movement over my right shoulder caught my attention and I turned towards the lake.

Flying very low above the lake and coming from the south was a very strange looking airplane. It had no wings, no propeller, was the same shape top and bottom and made no sound. The size was a bit bigger than any plane I'd seen before and the only planes I had seen were small private planes. I'd never been to a big airport. The colour a silver grey. The lake was only half a mile wide at that point so "the plane" was quite close and only about three times as high as our rooftop. If it had been a float plane I would have expected it to be landing at the far end of the lake.

It was moving only a little faster than I would have expected a plane to fly. I watched it continue up the lake then went back to my playing.

Later when I went in the house I told my mother about the strange plane I'd seen.

A short time later she heard on the 5:00 pm news that a "flying saucer" had been seen by a great many people flying north up the Okanagan Valley. It fit the description of what I'd seen so she told me about it. The radio station was CKOK Penticton.

I wasn't overly impressed as I'd never even heard of flying saucers. My parents were aware of them but it was never a topic that they had any reason to discuss. To me it was just a funny looking airplane. In fact, if it had not been on the news I doubt that I would have remembered it as the years went by. Of course to see it now would be very exciting and I would pay a lot more attention!

Over the years I've looked at archives of sightings in B.C. but have never seen mention of that event. That surprises me a bit since several people apparently reported it to the radio station at the time.

Unfortunately I can't give the exact year. I just know it was after 1950 and before 1960. It was around the time that my parents were part of a team of volunteers that had to report any planes they heard or saw during their shift. My parents shift was midnight to 2 A.M.. Both being teachers they used the time to mark papers! Years later when I asked why they were doing that, they couldn't remember what it was about but that it was being done in more areas than Oliver.

Around that same time period there was another sighting in the sky that I noted but did not think about more than just briefly. I was in the same area of Oliver playing with some friends. This was early afternoon in the summer. They were standing above me on a mound of dirt and as I was looking at them I noticed three bright lights in the sky to the north. They looked like very bright stars and formed a small triangle. We all watched them for a while but they didn't move so we went on playing. Over the next half hour whenever we looked up they were there. Since I remembered my father saying that as a boy in Alert Bay (1920's) he and a friend once watched several unmoving "stars" for a whole afternoon I just assumed that we also were looking at stars. Yes we knew that it was unusual to see stars in the daylight. The reason I remembered the event was that I was pleased that I'd seen something special that my dad had seen when he was about my age. Since then I've looked for stars in the daytime sky when the air is very clear but have never seen any.

I realize this report is from a long time ago but I am hoping you have records of this from other people. If nothing else I appreciate the opportunity to at last tell someone about the event. Thank-you.

Thank you to the witness for the wonderful report.

Tuc-El-Nuit Lake Oliver, British Columbia Between 1954 And 1958 A V Formation

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: Between 1954 And 1958 Time: Daylight Sighting.

HBCC UFO Research Note: The sister for the below report is referring to her sisters sighting: *Tuc-El-Nuit Lake Oliver, British Columbia 1950s Flying Saucer *

This is a bit of an unusual addition to a report you posted earlier.

My older sister submitted the report "Tuc-El-Nuit Lake Oliver, British Columbia 1950s Flying Saucer". She emailed me to take a look at this site, and I read her submission. Now, it gets a bit strange.

This was the very first time I heard about her seeing this event. That in itself is not particularly strange, but I saw something similar, and she did not know of my sighting nor I hers! Reading her report was a bit of a shock, to say the least.

What follows is a description of what I saw sometime between 1954 and 58. I was somewhere between 4 and 8 years old.

It was a bright day with a solid high overcast, and I believe in the afternoon. No wind and a warm day.

I was outside by the lake shore, facing south. Something attracted my attention and I looked up high to my left in time to see three objects streak towards the south. They were moving much faster than any ducks flew, and were absolutely silent. There was no flapping of wings or any body movement whatsoever. They did not appear to be descending, but got smaller as they flew out of sight behind a row of Poplar trees about 100M away.

There were three objects, flying in a "V" formation. They looked to me at the time like ducks with no tails and very short stubby wings. They were dark in colour and I saw no markings or distinguishable features. My age and lack of any other reference led me to assume they were just weird birds. What seemed unusual to me at the time other than the weird shape was the speed and silence of their flight.

They appeared to me as ducks would look if they were flying 10 or 15 M above my head. I should have seen details and heard the murmuring that ducks make as they fly.

I told my Mom and Dad about the "ducks". They questioned me but couldn't really come to any satisfactory conclusions and we just shrugged and moved on.

My sister and I talked about these events for the first time today. Neither of us were aware of the other's sighting. We are not really able to figure out who saw what first, but we are both certain that we did not know of each other's story. We are equally certain that we saw what we saw, and are not "remembering" a story we heard from the other.

FYI. Tuc-el-nuit Lake is, according to Indian legend, the birthplace of Ogopogo. He apparently swam up the Okanagan river to Okanagan Lake. The "Okanagan Arch" is also visible from this area.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

Revelstoke, British Columbia Sound From UFO Clears Bars And Restaurants In Town

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: 1963 or 1964 (?)

HBCC UFO Research Note: The witness asks if anyone had contacted HBCC UFO Research over this event. I know I have not received anything at all on this, so I am asking that if anyone does have any knowledge about this unusual event to please contact Brian Vike through the HBCC UFO Research website. I would love to get working on this case. I also replied to this witness and hope I will be able to speak to the person on the telephone to gather more information.

Message: Hi Brian..not sure if the number you gave is meant to be a phone or not, but it's trying to connect to a fax machine.

Anyway, what I wanted to ask you is if you've had anyone write or talk to you about a UFO in Revelstoke in 1963 or '64. The sound it made emptied all the bars and restaurants in the downtown area, so quite a few people would have seen it.

I saw it as it hovered over our house, while watching from the second story window, a totally terrified 13 year old. The memory of it is still crystal clear, the color, shape, sound and movement of it has never left me. I watched it hover for at least one full minute less than 20 feet away, (though it seemed like hours to someone who was trying not to be seen, although I know I was, and was being watched). I've looked in Project Blue Book but there is no mention of it there, which I found to be very strange. And for some reason over the past few months - the memory of it won't leave me alone, so I wanted to find out more from someone else if possible. But it must be someone who takes UFO's very seriously.

The one thing that has always struck me were it's lights. Many people think they have a blinking light, but I'm not so sure. This one had red circular lights on it that "appeared" to blink, but didn't. It has what appeared to be an outer casing that revolved around the body of the craft with circular cut-outs on it - as it passed over the red areas, a light appeared to blink but in reality it never shut off. I can see the metal color and texture too..charcoal gray with a navy horizontal striping (very thin) that went around the craft from top to bottom, very, very smooth. It still gives me the impression of velvet satin.

The sound it made was a hushed hum, while it sat half over the roof but well within my sight very gently pitching in a circular movement, it moved closer to my window when I knelt down so I couldn't be seen (or so I thought), then it just went away. It made no sound but for a sonic boom when it was already out of sight, and no aircraft on this planet can move as fast as that did, moving out and up at the same time.

Please tell me that someone else has told you about this one, I am a very well-balanced female of 55 years who knows what she saw - but have not spoken about it until now. I wouldn't be speaking about it now either, except the memory of it is really haunting me, and believe me. UFO's are not something I think about!

Thanks.

Thank you so much to the witness for relating this amazing experience, and again I hope to speak to this person soon. The more detail I can receive just maybe we can find others who also were witness to this UFO event.

Near Lake Glenmore, Calgary Alberta UFO Stops And A Bright Flash Of Light

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: Around 1968 Time: Approx: 10:00 p.m.

In Calgary in about 1968 we lived on the edge of town, near Lake Glenmore. About 10:00 p.m. I was looking SW over the foot hills it was dark so I assume it was May or June. The UFO flew too fast for a helicopter yet would stop and flash a bright light as if it were talking a picture, of several sections of ground, 5 or 10 square miles. The movement was fairly methodical, covering 10 miles rapidly then stopping for the picture, or the flash of white light. The movement seemed too fast for a jet & the fact that it stopped was why I labeled this sighting UFO. I don’t believe the British Harrier (sp) Jet was yet invented. The craft was too far away for any details on the structure, just the rapid movement & the flash of light. I was 13 or 14 at the time & it seems I heard a mention of the story around town but really just kind of kept quite about the sighting, I was the new kid in town. It is amazing that nearly 40 years later I can vividly recall that craft traversing the southern sky.

Thank you to the witness for their report.

Northern Ontario Unusual And Unknown Phenomena

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: Fall in 1962 Time: Approx: 8:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Home-Northern Ontario. Number of witnesses: 6 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Invisible.

Full Description of event/sighting: Around 8:00 pm in early Fall in 1962 my family (parents and siblings plus a young neighbor) were enjoying an evening watching TV. I had just finished having a shower and was just about to exit the bathroom when I heard a tremendous crash from out side the door (in the hallway). I immediately opened the door from the bathroom into the hallway and saw my whole family standing in the hallway looking at the ceiling. They were looking at the entrance to the attic which was an opening in the ceiling covered by a three quarter inch thick piece of plywood about two feet square. The attic cover had risen up by itself four feet into the attic and then came crashing down so hard that it splintered into dozens of pieces all over the floor. The cover was particularly heavy and required two hands to move it if one wanted to enter the attic (no-one ever did). There were no drafts noticeable to anyone in the house and no seismic or weather events that may have had anything to do with the phenomena. I moved to California 6 months later and heard from my mother that the same thing occurred once more before the whole family moved to California later that year (1963).

Thank you to the witness for the really interesting story.

Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan Shiny Metallic Cigar Shaped Object

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: July-August 1969 ? Time: ??

Message: Back in 1969, several members of my family and some neighbors across the street saw a shiny metallic cigar shaped object in the sky over the southwest area of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan. It hovered in the sky for several minutes and then shot off. I was nearly 5 years old at the time and cannot personally remember the incident. However, several calls were placed to the airbase regarding the sighting and it was reported in the Moose Jaw Times Herald. It was reported sometime in July-August, I think.

Also, back in 1947 when my mom was a girl, she and a number of students during recess at Westmount school in Moose Jaw saw several strange objects in formation hovering and moving in the sky above the school yard.

Thank you to the witness for this report.

East Of Peterborough, Ontario Former News Director Has An Incredible Experience

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: July or August of 1969 Time: Approx: 10:00 p.m.

HBCC UFO Research Note: I thought I would add a quick note here. The gentleman mentions in his letter to me that he was a former news director of CFBV/LD radio in Smithers. The radio station in Smithers is a 45 minute drive from me heading west, and Smithers is located in British Columbia, Canada. I also do short spots on the radio station the man is talking about, giving local updates on UFO sightings for out entire area.

Message: Hi Brian. Nice to meet you. First off, I'm a former news director of CFBV/LD radio in Smithers. Additionally, I worked at Endako mines for a few years in the '70's. As you can imagine, I'm quite familiar with Houston, having lived and 'played' in Fraser Lake, Endako, Burns Lake, Telkwa and Smithers for many years in the late 70's and early 80's. Heck, I met my first wife at an Ian Tamblyn concert in '81 at the Endako Community hall!! I live in Peterborough County, Ontario. Ironically, yesterday, I received a post card from an old buddy who's currently vacationing in Australia, he lives in Quick. Remember the Christmas flood of the community of Quick back in '83? Here is my story.

I was born and raised on a 100 acre farm 20 miles east of Peterborough, Ontario. The incident took place in July or August of 1969 when I was sixteen. I was alone in my family's farmhouse located 75 feet from a gravel township road. At that time we had a border collie mutt named Chief who was an extremely good guard dog, vicious would be an appropriate description. My father passed away the previous February and Chief had become even more nasty. Lots of people driving on the property would remain in their vehicle until one of us appeared in the driveway to rescue them from the snapping dog.

It was approximately ten o'clock in the evening and I was sitting in the living room watching TV with the overhead light on. I noticed a light shining through the closed white drapes covering the south window. I thought, "That's odd. The light's on, if the light was off I could easily see the light's of a vehicle passing the farmhouse, but the light's on??!! And I can't hear a car." I exited the living room and entered the kitchen. I looked out the aluminum screen door on the south side of the kitchen and saw a light on the other side of some poplar trees growing about 150 yards from the house on the other side of the road. The light was white and about the size of your thumbnail.

Now this is where it gets interesting. Chief was standing just outside of the screen door, with his butt against the aluminum. He was making the most peculiar, extremely low, guttural growl and every piece of fur on his body was standing straight out, as though he'd been electrocuted. I'd never heard him make such an odd sound. He was scared witless. Normally he'd rush across the yard barking and growling at the human, the squirrel, the skunk etc. Not this night. The light was moving west to east and the dog's nose followed the light precisely. Whatever was moving in the sky was definitely the cause for Chief's abject terror.

I couldn't open the door to investigate as the dog's rear end was 'bunched' against the door. I yelled at the dog to get out of the way. He wouldn't move. He was frozen. Finally, after a few seconds of admonishing the dog, I forced the door open which pushed Chief out of the way. His nose never wavered from observing the moving light. I walked across the yard towards the road and the light which was still slowly moving west/east. It would occasionally disappear behind a poplar and then reappear a second later. There was no sound. I guesstimated the object to be 150 to 200 yards away. Chief, the nasty guard dog, never left the cement patio on the front of the house, but he continued to observe the thing and kept growling in that most peculiar manner.

Then I realized something very odd. By this time I was standing on the road. Not only was the flying object making no sound, but there were no cricket, tree frog or katydid sounds as well. Brian, what in heaven's name has the ability to silence the amphibians and insects of the forest? I felt a very palpable and rising sense of terror.

I lived in that farmhouse for 18 years. At no time did any of my family members nor I ever 'get the gun' because we were frightened of something. It never happened, well, just once. I ran across the yard, past the dog who was still frozen by the front door and into the woodshed. I grabbed the single shot 22 rifle and the shells. I was so frightened, even today, I can recall my right hand shaking as I fumbled to put a shell in the gun. I can clearly remember thinking, "This is the stupidest thing I've ever done! What good is this 'pop gun' going to do for me against that 'thing' out there across the road? I might as well throw a chunk of gravel against the object."

The next thing I remember I was seated on the couch in the living room with the loaded 22 across my lap. The light was still illuminated and the TV was on. I was calm, cool and collected. My heart rate was normal. The flying object was now located to the east of the house, out over the barnyard and for the next ten to fifteen minutes I kept looking over my shoulder through the south window at the light in the sky. I could barely make out a ring as though the light was the 'diamond' on the edge of the ring. A couple of minutes into this session, the light changed from solid white to a blinking red light. It became smaller and smaller and blinked faster and faster. From my perspective, it appeared that the object shot out into space. At no time was I worried or concerned about the UFO in the barnyard. I had a lackadaisical attitude towards it and I thought, "Big deal, it's just a UFO, why worry about it?" as I watched TV and occasionally turned to look at it out the south living room window.

I want to make something perfectly clear, Brian: the next part of my story is a dream. This did not happen. For all of my adult life I can clearly remember the dream. In my dream, I was standing in the woodshed at my family's old farmhouse, in the night, with the woodshed overhead bulb on and I'm loading the 22. White light suddenly comes through the two windows located on the south and west sides of the woodshed. White light comes from under the woodshed doors from the outside. That's the end of the dream.

Here's the next peculiar part of the story and I have no idea whether it's connected to the UFO incident. I was not suicidal in the summer of '69, I have not been suicidal at any time in my adult life, nor am I suicidal today. I do not suffer from depression. I feel fine, thanks! A few days after seeing the object, I was home alone and cutting the backyard grass. Suddenly, with no previous suicidal thoughts, I decided to shut off the mower, go to the woodshed, load the 22 and kill myself. I exited the woodshed, with the loaded gun, walked through the house, sat in precisely the same spot on the couch as that night of the UFO visit, with the loaded 22 across my lap. My intention was to shoot myself. Fortunately, after about 30 seconds of contemplation I came to my senses. I thought, "What the heck am I doing? I'm not suicidal! Get that damn shell out of the gun! Put the gun away! This is ridiculous!" I unloaded the rifle and returned it to the woodshed.

Brian, I have some questions....as you might well imagine.

1) What was that thing flying through the sky, with no sound, in the summer of '69?

2) What has the ability to silence the critters of the forest?

3) Why was my vicious guard dog reduced to a quivering mass of terror?

4) We have all been terrified. There are certain physiological responses to fear. Increased heart rate, adrenalin pumping through your veins, shaking hands, cold sweats etc. etc. How did I retreat from all of those normal responses and return to 'calm, cool and collected' without a calming down period? (by the way, I had no sense of time loss during or after the incident)

5) Is my dream of loading the gun and seeing white light a dream? Or did it actually happen?

6) What was the reason for my suicidal thoughts and actions which occurred out of nowhere a few days after the incident? (I repeat: I'm not suicidal, nor was I when I was sixteen.)

7) During the absurd suicide event, why did I walk to the exact same spot as I ended up after I saw the UFO with the loaded gun across my lap?

I guess I'll never have the answers to those questions. By the way, Brian, I cannot be hypnotized. Just to satisfy my curiosity, I wish I could be hypnotized, to possibly further explore the events of that night so long ago, but I'm one of those people who are not open to hypnotic suggestion. Thanks for your time and keep up the good work do*****enting the observations of peculiar events of people from around the world. No, I'm not a hoaxer!! Go ahead, use my name if you wish. I truly don't care what other people think. The above mentioned events really did occur. Art

Thank you to Art for the extremely interesting report. I will be contacting Art over this experieince, also I would like to add Art gave me the OK to use his name.

Red Deer, Alberta A Lens Type Of Craft

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: Spring of 1969 Time: Evening

Message: I am so glad I found you! I have been waiting nearly 40 years to report this sighting. It was the spring of 1969, at my parents' home 4 miles east of Red Deer, Alberta. My mother, my older brother and a friend of his, were outside bidding goodnight to the friend who was leaving. We were on 5 acres in the middle of farm land - virtually no light pollution. We were all in the habit of watching the sky, day and night, for weather patterns, birds, shooting stars, northern lights, and was our habit, were standing on the lawn in the soft spring darkness, admiring the stars, when one of us said 'what's that?'

We all observed, moving from the west towards us, a shape that blurred the star field as it passed. There was also a slight color change, as if the black night sky had been given a magenta wash where the shape was. It seemed immense, somehow watching it gave a feeling of hugeness - vaguely oval. It was creepy, seeing the sky ripple. This lens? stopped above us. A rectangle of light, white/pale yellow, opened in the side of this thing, and three globes, the same light, came out, descending slightly and then taking off in three directions. The door of light closed.

I don't remember the shape disappearing, only the four of us sort of shaking our heads, looking at the grass, and then going inside. There was on airbase not too far away, which my brother phoned - guess what they said it was...a weather balloon! Is that too funny or what.

Thank you to the person for the interesting report.

St. John's, New Foundland RCMP Reports UFO Hovering Over Police Vehicle

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: 1969 Time: 2:00 a.m.

Message: I was reading an article on line contained in the St. John's newspaper the Telegram about UFO's. This goes back some years when I was a member of the RCMP stationed in St. John's, NL. It would be in 1969 when another Police Officer and I were on Night Patrol just outside of St. John's at around 2:00 a.m. in the morning. It was at a little jute overlooking the ocean in Middle Cove/Outer Cove, NL area. We noted a very bright white light hovering over our police vehicle and had no idea what it was. At different times it would change colours ie bright white, than red, than green , back to white red etc. We would put our police car red light on and it would turn red.

We would put our police car's siren and whopper on and it would imitate these sounds. It would be over us one minute and than over the ocean and than back over us. We had our night desk man check with the St. John's airport to see if anything was showing up on radar , but nothing was. We played with this UFO for about 1/2 hour and as suddenly as it appeared it left . One minute it was there and than it was just a bright white beam of light leaving. It traveled out of our sight faster than one could snap ones fingers. Hope this may be of some use to you. I don't know what it was but it sure wasn't earthly, as far as I could tell or am concerned.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Handhillls Area Farm - Hanna (Southern) Alberta Large Disk With Dome

Posted: December 26, 2007

Date: Fall 1969 Time: Approx 10:00 p.m.

Location of Sighting: Handhillls area Farm - Hanna (Southern) Alberta Number of witnesses: 3 Number of objects: 1 Shape of objects: Large Disk with Dome: bottom 3 Extremely bright lights.

Full Description of event/sighting: My mom and dad and I were driving home from my friends house late one Fall evening, when dad saw what he thought were "Poachers" on his farm lease land. Mom told him to shut off the light so they couldn't see us approach and we'd surprise them since we were headed directly at them. When we got close enough, about 500 yards away I believe the size and sight frightened my dad and he turned the lights on to be sure he was seeing, what we were seeing. When he turned on the lights the "flying/hovering machine/ship" shot straight up into the air, no visual emissions of any kind. It went straight up, and straight north with no hesitation automatically.

Flew unbelievably fast over top of the "home hill" and disappeared, or looked like it disappeared over the tree-line behind the family ranch house and was gone. I will say it was hovering when we turned the corner in front of it overtop of a slough filled with water, very low over it just above the willow tree-line around the slough and it was HUGE. It covered the whole of the area above the trees and slough and moved incredible swiftly, without effort and accurately. There were 3 huge lit lights, white blue lined extremely bright lights underneath the ship, not in a row, but triangular on the underside of the ship/vessel. When dad turned on the lights and the machine moved, dad cussed, drove like H*)(_*(ll all the way to the house. We ran inside and yelled at my older brother and sister to bring the rifles and as they did they went out behind the trees.

My mom and I stayed behind with my grandmother, who was in the house with my siblings when the ship went over. She asked if dad had run into the side of the house when he parked because there was a big vibrating sound and motion that shook the cupboards. Outside in the vehicle while driving we heard nothing, only saw. When dad and my family returned they had found, seen nothing out there. Whatever it was its gone. Dad refused ever again to discuss this, but mom and I did a great deal of believing and discussing the phenomenal experience.

I had open heart surgery at 5 years old and was told twice that because they placed a pig valve in my heart that I would be dead, and I am still alive and well. I believe in alot of things that others may view as weird, but once you have seen and experienced it makes me a believer with unshakable convictions, if that's the right word. I believe because I have seen, experienced first hand, I don't need anyone else to believe, but I am extremely pleased to have found this sight so I may share and read of others experiences. I also have been a skywatcher now since this experience. Thank you.

Thank you to the witness for the wonderful report.

Between Boston Bar and Yale, B.C. Luminous Translucent Oval Light

Posted: December 26, 2006

Date: October 1968 Time: 3:00 a.m.

The first sighting took place in the Fraser Canyon between Boston Bar and Yale in an area where the Canyon is quite deep. A friend and co-worker Les B. and I had gone on a Moose hunting trip to the Big Timothy Mountain area east of Lac la Hache BC over the thanksgiving long weekend in 1968. We saw no game during the hunt so we were determined to pack up our remote wilderness camp in the early afternoon of the last day and begin what would have been about a 9 hour drive back to Vancouver. It was a beautiful autumn day and we procrastinated going back, taking down our camp and heading out of the bush. Much to our dismay we heard the crack of a rifle shot as one of our hunting companions bagged his Moose in the late afternoon, several hours after we should have left for home.

That meant we had several more hours of back breaking work dressing out, cutting up this huge Bull Moose and packing it back to our camp and the vehicles. We had to find our way out of the bush in the dark and our delayed trip home put us in the Fraser Canyon location where we saw the UFO at about 3:00 AM (we both had to book off work that day as we were totally exhausted when we finally got home). There was no other traffic on the road at the time and as we were driving along my friend Les said "what is that strange light in the canyon below". I pulled over and we both got out and looked down into the canyon. What we saw was very strange as there seemed to be a fog or mist in the canyon and inside the fog we could make out a luminous, sort of translucent oval light source that was probably several hundred feet long and hovering above the Fraser River. The light was slowly pulsating in intensity getting brighter, then dimmer etc.

My friend and I knew that there were train tracks on either side of the canyon, the CNR on one side and the CPR on the other. We thought at first the light was the light of a train but soon realized that a train would not make a stationary pulsating light in the middle of the canyon above the river or be totally silent in the process. My friend and I also had a sense of fear as we both felt the hair on the back of our necks stand on end at the time. Les said "lets get the hell out of here" so we jumped back in the car and drove off. We never mentioned it to any of our co-workers since at the time anyone who mentioned a UFO was instantly labeled as a crackpot but we did talk about it between ourselves after the fact.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Beam Of Light Almost Blinds Man On Highway #1 - Missing Time

Posted: December 26, 2007

Started North Of Quesnel, Continued South To Yale BC

HBCC UFO Research Note: The witness who reported the below experience would like to know if anyone at the time he drove the Fraser Canyon Highway here in British Columbia on the Easter weekend in 1968 witness the same events he did. If so, would you please be kind enough to contact Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research. Thank you.

Date: Easter weekend 1968 Time: 19:00 - Midnight

Number of witnesses: 1 Number of objects: ? Shape of objects: ?

Full Description of event/sighting: Hi Brian, could ask if anyone might have been on the road through the Fraser Canyon at that time and possibly seen what the heck was flying over my car. Re: The possibility of missing time, I still don't know but I still think there could be up to two hours missing somewhere on that trip. I don't remember being scared but was rather apprehensive when the power died. I believe that must have happened going down Jackass Mountain. Why I didn't get killed that night I will never know.

1968 - Easter Weekend - I decided to drive the approximately 800 miles north to see a friend of mine who'd recently moved to Dawson Creek. I left Vancouver quite late and about midnight found myself driving through the mountains near Cache Creek. As I drove along the mountain crests I noticed far off in the North West a number of what appeared to be search lights playing on the clouds. At the time I thought there must be an airport over there somewhere. Later on when I checked my maps found nothing but bush and also realized that the lights I'd seen were not shining up at the clouds but down from somewhere above. Shortly after passing Cache Creek it began to snow and I ended up driving for 18 hours. I found my friend, booked into one of the Hotels in town and passed out.

She had the weekend off, so the next few days we spent touring the area. The third day I started back to Vancouver. The snow had all melted and I was cruising along about 80 mph. At sunset I was just north of Quesnel and had a large field on my right, as I passed it I noticed what appeared at first glance to be a white bird about the size of a Herring Gull, it took off from approximately 150 feet away and skimmed across the field at approximately 3 feet in the air on an interception course with my car. I stepped on the brakes and it passed through my head light beams approximately. 20 feet in front of me. It then climbed at about a 45 degree angle and shot off up into the sky. As it passed I realized it was not a bird as the wings were fixed and not flapping. My foot came down a little harder and soon I was cruising at 90 mph. Hours later I was back up in the mountains, just south of Cache Creek.

I'd not seen another car for hours and I was still rolling along about 90. All of a sudden a brilliant white light shone down on me from somewhere above. It was like the light from a flash bulb, so bright I couldn't even see my own headlights and from what I could make out appeared to be a perfect circle, perhaps several hundred feet in diameter. I floored the gas and went up to about 110 mph. but the light stayed right with me. After a minute or so the light went back out. I could feel all the hairs on the back of my neck standing up and sensed that whatever it was, was still directly over my car.

I wanted to stop and take a look, but since I was by myself and there was no other traffic I continued to keep my foot in it. About 10 minutes later the light came back on and I got the distinct impression that whoever was behind it wanted me to stop. I went even faster. Just before I reached the Kanaka Bar Restaurant the light went out again. I came around a bend and found the Restaurant right in front of me. A car had just left the restaurant and I passed him doing about 120 mph. He must have thought I was a UFO. A few miles further on I came over the crest of a mountain and could see a long steep hill in front of me with a curve at the bottom, suddenly my car lost all power and I was flying blind down the hill.

I was still doing close to 120 mph and had lost my lights, power steering, power brakes etc. I put both feet on the brake pedal and pushed as hard as I could. I couldn't see the road at all as there are tall trees on each side of the road and it was black. All I could do was try and keep the car heading straight. I kept picturing the road curving up ahead but didn't have the faintest idea how close I was or even if I could make it at the speed I was still going. Without my power assist the car didn't feel as if it was slowing the least. Just as I reached the bottom of the hill my power all of a sudden came back on. Needless to say I made the corner but didn't slow down until I reached the main Trans Canada Highway with all its traffic. I owned that car for more than five years and never before or after did I have any problems with it mechanically or electrically. The loss of power seemed to be their goodbye present as I lost that feeling that they were sitting on my roof just shortly afterwards.

I often read or see programs about people losing time during incidents similar to what I went through but don't think I was stopped. I was near Quesnel at sunset which I'd guess to be about 19:00 and hit the Trans Canada near Hope at about 02:00. I was just doing some calculations and they don't work out. Quesnel is approximately 325 miles north of Hope and at the speed I was going I should have done it in about 3.5 hrs. not 7, maybe something did happen? I sure don't recall slowing.

Years later when I first saw the movie Close Encounters it brought it all back again especially the scene where they were all up on the mountain watching the UFO approach above the clouds. When I came out of the theatre after the movie I didn't have the faintest idea where I was. Nothing seemed familiar and it took several minutes for me to figure out where I was. Several years later I asked some Police Officers if they might have had helicopters working in the Canyon at night and they said not to their knowledge. Too dangerous.

I just thought I'd mention the car I was driving at the time was a bright Red 1960 Dodge Phoenix Dart Convertible just incase anyone saw it being perused by something.

Thank you very much to the witness for the interesting report.
