3-Foot-Long Gliding GREEN 'FLYING DRAGON' Seen in Butler County, Ohio

A witness contacted me about a gliding reptilian creature that strangely looked like the Xianglong, a species of gliding lizard that lived in China but went extinct.
I received the following account:
"Hello. It was a Sunday morning in August 2024 and we were in Butler County, Ohio, I know because we had just passed the Butler County water tower 1-2 minutes ago and we were driving on a bridge and I was looking out the window. I saw something 10-15 away from the bridge. After looking at it for a couple seconds, it disappeared behind some trees.
Description: It looked more like it was gliding rather than flying as I swear remembering it not flapping its “wings” (gliding animals like “flying” squirrels and “flying” snakes do not actually have wings, they instead have expanded ribs that make them look like they have wings). It was about 3 feet in height and was about the height of the bridge off the ground, though probably higher. It was green and looked more reptilian than bird-like. One of the first thoughts that came to my head was a flying dragon, which again does not actually fly but instead just glides. It is native to southeastern Asia and southern India, making a sighting of it in Butler County extremely unusual. It’s also only up to 8 inches long. Well, the one I saw was around three feet in height. Strangely, the one I saw looks like the Xianglong, a species of gliding lizard that lived in China but went extinct, making this thing, assuming that’s what I saw, out of time, out of height (the only evidence we have of the lizard ever existing was a skeleton found in China that was 6 inches long, but that was probably a juvenile, which might make this one a large adult, however, I feel like adults don’t grow that much bigger then juveniles, maybe a couple inches to a foot, but again not much bigger) and out of place.
I might have just seen a regular bird, and I was just remembering things wrong like it not flapping and/or how green and reptilian-like it was. But I do know this, if it was flapping its wings and/or it wasn’t that green and reptilian-like, I probably wouldn’t have gotten all excited and thought it was some kind of cryptid or something. I tried to look up birds that are three feet in height or similar and live in Butler County or at least Ohio as a whole but I didn’t find anything that looked similar to what I saw.
Was it a plane or other man-made aerial machine? This is the theory that makes the least sense as it wasn’t a plane as it was flying too close to the ground, too close to the bridge, and was too small to be one or anything else meant for a person to fly. A drone makes the most sense but I feel like I would have seen the propellers spinning or something like that. A gliding lizard, Xianglong, or a different type of unknown animal: this is obviously the cryptid explanation as the gliding lizard lives in southern India and southeastern Asia and is up to 8 inches in height, much smaller than what I saw. And the Xianglong has been extinct for a long while I can only assume. Other than that, I don’t know what else to say since I basically already explained it to you." I

U.S. Navy Submarine Encounters MASSIVE SQUID-LIKE MONSTER in the Pacific Ocean!

A U.S. Navy submariner recalls an encounter with a massive creature that scraped across the hull of the ship while off the coast of Hawaii. Was it a Kraken?
I received the following account:
"I was in the U.S. Navy on submarines, and I had a buddy in the barracks who was a sonar tech on another sub. They listen for things in the water all day, that’s their only job (when they’re on watch, at least).
Anyway, one day they were in local waters, off the coast of Hawaii by a few hundred miles doing training or whatever when suddenly the whole boat heard something large make noise against the hull. It made a zipper/popping noise from the front of the boat all the way to the back. There was supposed to be NOTHING in the area. No sonar buoys from training aircraft, no floating rope or buoy that had a chain, or anything else that could give a logical explanation for the noise.
They surfaced the ship to check for damages and noticed a few of the sound-dampening tiles (they’re kind of rubbery/foamy) that cover the boat were ripped off that hadn’t been previously. It was unclear whether the thing that caused the noise was what removed them since they sometimes just fell off anyway.
But my buddy was pretty darn sure it was the suckers of a giant squid or some other monster mollusk that made the noise. I guess to him it sounded suction-cup-like. He was almost certain it was a biological noise, not mechanical. The only problem is that giant squids only get to about 30’ long, whatever made the noise was appreciably bigger.
So anyway he tells everyone his boat was fondled by a Kraken. I believe him!" G

Oddly-Dressed LITTLE MAN Seen in Las Vegas

The witness describes a 4" tall man in a red and white pinstripe suit and matching straw hat they saw strolling leisurely between the sidewalk and the curb in Las Vegas.
I received the following account:
"I encountered a wee person in 2006 during my one and only visit to Las Vegas, of all places.
My passenger and I had driven there from Chicagoland for a trade show. She was asleep as we pulled into town on a sunny Friday afternoon, and I was taking in the sights as I stopped at a red light. The 4-way intersection was bustling with cars and pedestrians and I was the first car in my lane.
I saw some movement in the bushes directly to my left and I had to do a triple take to accept what my eyes were telling me. There was an approximately 4" tall man in a red and white pinstripe suit and matching straw hat strolling leisurely between the sidewalk and the curb. He had a cane and didn't even have to duck as he walked underneath the shrubbery. I was stunned and stared at the little guy until the light turned green and the car behind me lay on the horn.
I reluctantly pulled away and wrestled with the idea of telling my passenger, who was the team lead and good friend; about my bizarre sighting. After a much-needed shower, I decided to tell her before we went for dinner. She was not receptive at all to my story and told me to go on without her.
We were staying at 'The Whiskey' and I just went downstairs to the hotel bar/casino and started drinking Long Islands at the main bar and playing video poker.
After about 2 hours I was pretty buzzed and looked over at the guy beside me and said, "Hey man, you won't believe what I saw on the way here today." The bartender heard me and said. "OK, I'll bite. What?"
I said, "A 4-foot tall man wearing a pinstripe suit was walking down the strip under the bushes like a boss." The guy beside me just got up and walked out of the bar. The bartender was drying a glass and also walked away without a word." H

(VIDEO) Did BIGFOOT Obstruct Trail Camera? Sangre de Cristo Mountains, New Mexico

"After being screamed at, a hiker gets an unexplained creature on trail camera. We've got strange and unusual game camera images from the mountains of Northeast New Mexico. I'll run it through a few different light filters while I go over Dave's report.
We receive a lot of Bigfoot reports from north New Mexico. Dave has sent us tracks he has documented during Bigfoot investigations along with images of what may be a New Mexico Bigfoot captured on camera. The ancient inhabitants of the area depicted Bigfoot tracks in some of their petroglyphs and so we take Sasquatch sighting reports and evidence from this area seriously."

Dave writes:
"This is no doubt a coincidence but it was fun while it lasted in mid-October. I was out early with my dogs in a not well-traveled if at all these days part of the western slope of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains just north of Valdez, New Mexico, in Carson National Forest. Given this was new territory for us and his excitement, my youngest dog kept running ahead a little further than I liked. We'd been traveling up the north side of an arroyo and found some old pipes perhaps used to carry snow melt down to the high desert below it. At some point in time, we came across the remnants of an old road used for pipe maintenance and began following it up the mountain. We were at around 8,000-foot elevation give or take and it was pretty heavily forested. I was trying to be as quiet as possible hoping we'd see some wildlife but when my young husky ran ahead too many times I raised my voice. The puppy slowed down.
Within moments we were met with a blast of sound from the trees just above us, which was a cross between coyotes on steroids howling and a siren. I could not believe the volume and it was close. My first thought, aside from the obvious, 'What the heck!' My youngest dog ran back toward me and my older dog, who I had on a leash, lunged forward wanting to go after it and he weighed about 90 lbs, it was all I could do to hold him back while this critter repeatedly blasted us with calls. I eventually had to pin my dog to the ground and during the process, the animal making the sound began moving away from us at a rather impressive rate. However, it continued to sound the alarm as it traveled up into the mountains. The howls eventually faded away.
Following that bizarre vocal incident, I set up a game camera within a mile of that spot and have captured images of deer, coyotes, foxes, bears, and then there's this one. I checked the camera on the morning of October 24th."

TALL, MULATTO, GOLD-BROWN EYED COUPLE Encountered on Chicago Street!

A mulatto man and a woman, walking together on a Chicago street. Their eyes were gold-brown and glowed, and their hair was in long lush braids with blonde color woven in.
I received the following account:
"About 5 years ago, I was walking in Chicago from my hotel to Shake Shack on S. Michigan Ave. after work in the summer, and I passed two very tall beings who immediately gave me the weirdest feeling of danger and to get the hell out of there.
It was a man and a woman, and their skin color looked as if they were half white/half black, so their skin tone was the perfect brownish/tan. Their eyes were gold-brown and glowed, and their hair was in long lush braids with blonde color woven in. However, despite their blatant beauty, I was terrified. They looked as if they could be twins, walking in an odd stride, maybe odd because of how tall they were, and even more odd because of how alike they looked. They were so perfect they could have been models, but every cell in my body and the souls of my cells told me I just had a glimpse into something I had no possibility of understanding.
Anyway, given that I always trust my gut, I crossed the street to get away from them. I continued to walk alongside them across the street, trying to keep up the best I could, but they were so fast I just couldn’t. Despite wanting to keep my eyes on them to make sure they weren’t going to mess with me because maybe they could sense I knew something I shouldn’t, I was relieved when they were out of sight.
I finally arrived at Shake Shack, and some random guy decided to talk to me, gave me a coupon (even though I already ordered, so what’s the point), and said “Good luck.” Then there I stood asking myself, “Why did this guy just wish me good luck?” It was almost as if he knew that I was on a weary path or just saw something unusual. I was so creeped out and I will never ever forget this 1-hour capsule in my life." B

WINGED, BLACK, MONKEY-LIKE CRYPTID Seen in London, UK Suburb

A British man is walking to the bus stop when he encounters a winged, small black-bodied sleek figure walking or (running) on four skinny legs resembling a monkey with a long "ratlike" tail.
I received the following account:
"My husband works shifts. One morning (around 5.00am) in 2000 he had just left our bungalow to walk to the bus stop to catch the first of two buses to work. Being Summer, it was very bright for the time of morning and he told me he was just collecting his thoughts, thinking about the tasks he had to do that day, and the list of groceries that I asked him to get when from above and a little way off, he heard a rustling of leaves from a tree behind a wall of a garden; thinking it was a squirrel he looked up and he told me he thought he was seeing things.
What he said he saw was a small black-bodied sleek figure walking or (running) on four skinny legs resembling a monkey with a long "ratlike" tail, it looked like the head was round with pointed ears on either side of it. My husband couldn't see the creature's facial features as it moved with extreme speed; when it hit the ground it scurried away from him, but he said he swore he saw what he thought was a wing (in the brief time he saw the creature airborne) which appeared to be "pinned back" to the side of creatures body on the nearest side to him.
My husband is a practical, no-nonsense man who is somewhat skeptical about the supernatural and paranormal (although doesn't disbelieve altogether), he was slightly reluctant to tell me in case I would think he was "having me on." We discussed the incident that night when he got home. He had already texted me about it and I was intrigued. I did ask my husband if it could have been a large bat! On talking about it and thinking it through properly we concluded it couldn't have been a bat, as this creature that my husband saw had four legs and a rat's tail.
We walk that route all the time; to get out of the estate and to the shops, before, and since the incident and we've never seen a creature like that. We are both natives of London and we are unaware of such a creature even existing so we are still trying to work out what this creature could have been." B

NEW DETAILS EMERGE - 12/9/1965 KECKSBURG, PA UFO INCIDENT

The Kecksburg, Pennsylvania UFO Incident - 59 Years Later - A New Detail Revealed
From: Researcher Stan Gordon
On December 9, 1965, an object of undetermined origin fell from the sky into a wooded ravine near the community of Kecksburg in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. What that object was has remained a mystery.
I was sixteen years old at that time when I began to document the sightings of the fiery object as it was breaking on Pittsburgh area news that evening. News accounts mentioned sightings of the object from Ontario, as well as other locations such as Michigan, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. The phones were ringing at police departments, newspaper offices, and radio and TV stations around Pittsburgh as sightings of the object in the sky were being reported over that area at about 4:47 PM.
Over the years since the occurrence, I tracked down hundreds of witnesses and many sources who had detailed information concerning the Kecksburg incident. Many witnesses that evening, including news reporters confirmed that the military was in the Kecksburg area conducting a search for the fallen object.
Numerous witnesses also confirmed that the object was later transported from the impact site on a military flatbed tractor-trailer truck. Other independent sources confirmed that the object was taken to Lockbourne Air Force Base near Columbus, Ohio. It arrived during the early morning hours of December 10, 1965. The truck and object were kept in a hangar at that base. The hangar was surrounded by an armed security team. That truck stayed there for a brief time then continued onto Wright-Patterson Air Force Base where the object was placed inside a building at that facility. It was not Hangar 18.
It is unfortunate that many witnesses who were involved with this incident in 1965, have passed away. Others are quite elderly, and some are not in good health. Some witnesses however were children or teenagers in 1965, and they still recall details from that evening quite well. Many witnesses went to their graves without having answers from the government about what the object was that caused so much commotion that day in 1965.
During my many years of research into this case, there were certain details that I had received that I did not make public until I had enough independent sources that could confirm what had been reported. In some cases, it took years before I released that information.
One such detail was that witnesses from Ohio and Pennsylvania reported observing one or two military jets that were following along the path that the object had just taken over that area. Witnesses indicated that the aircraft appeared to be pursuing the object that they had also observed. Military jets were reportedly seen east of Greensburg following the path of the object soon after it had made a turn toward the south and continued moving toward the Kecksburg area.
A few months ago, I surprisingly received an email from a person who provided some interesting information related to the Kecksburg case. The person involved was not from Pennsylvania, he was from Michigan. It was related to me by that writer that he was an inadvertent witness to the incident. The witness made me aware that he was elderly and not feeling well and he wanted to pass on this information to me while he was still around.
He told me that a relative asked him to go to a meeting about UFOs about 8-9 years ago. A speaker mentioned the Kecksburg incident. This witness never heard about the Kecksburg incident until then, but after hearing the details he realized that what he saw seemed to relate to the information he had heard.
The witness told me via email and later during a phone interview that there were certain details he recalled that could confirm that what he experienced did take place on December 9, 1965, the day the Kecksburg incident occurred.
The witness remembered that on that day a personal experience had taken place that was important to him. He also recalled hearing on the news that day that a meteor had been sighted over Michigan. He told me that he and his date went that day to a drive-in restaurant that had a car service. It was located in a northern suburb of Detroit near Pontiac.
The witness recalled it was just getting dark outside at that time. The couple got their food and then backed into an area away from where they had received their food order.
As the witness explained to me, It was soon after that a meteor (or something) passed over moving through the sky and traveling from northwest to southeast. It looked like a big dark ball or something that was surrounded by flames that were red and yellow in color. The object was moving fast across the sky, and he only saw it for about 8-10 seconds. He did not recall any sound.
As the object passed over, the sky and surrounding area lit up like a bright sun. There were three or four other cars parked nearby. The insides of the cars were all illuminated for seconds as the object passed over. What had just occurred was shocking to the witness and his girlfriend.
What happened very soon after the object had passed was even more frightening to that witness. Passing directly overhead, the witness observed an F-101 Voodoo military fighter jet that was trailing the object. The military jet fired a missile at the object as it moved directly along the same path. Moments later, the sky was again illuminated. The witness stated that what he saw “scared him quite a bit.” The man also mentioned that six other people had also witnessed what had taken place.
The witness in his statement to me said” It’s definitely not normal for a fighter jet to shoot a missile over a major U.S. city, and the possibility of WWIII popped into my head.”
The witness told me that he did more research and found out that red molten metal was reported to have also fallen that day near Sterling Heights, Michigan. He speculated that the debris may have been associated with the missile strike on the object since this was in the correct area.
The witness had a longtime interest in aviation and was familiar with civilian and military aircraft. He was certain as to the type of military aircraft he saw that day.
During my interview with the witness, I found him to be very credible and sincere. I want to thank him for coming forward and presenting this new and important detail that adds to the mystery of what the object was that fell into the woods near Kecksburg in 1965.

'BACKWARD KNEES,' SHINY HUMANOID Seen Near Victor Valley, California

"It looked like some sort of a weird, long humanoid with shiny skin and backward knees. It was fast; we saw it again in another gap, and it was keeping up with the car."
I received the following inquiry:
"I'd like to know what we saw. I was with a friend in the high desert, in California, near Victor Valley. I have driven this road many times before, it is mostly some shrubs and small desert trees but in places, it is wooded with large rocky areas. It was in one of these weird patches that we saw whatever it was. It was dusk, and we were sober.
The driver and I both caught about a three-second glimpse of it between a few trees and a boulder. It looked like some sort of weird long humanoid with shiny skin and backward knees. They bent the wrong way entirely. It was fast, we saw it again in another gap and it was keeping up with the car.
We got the hell off the road at the next bend near the place we were staying, locked the door, and talked about it for about 10 minutes before deciding we weren't crazy, and also moving."

NOTE: It's difficult to identify what these witnesses saw. Could it have been a skinwalker? Lon

Silent 'MEN IN BLACK' Appear at California Campsite

Martha in Santa Cruz, California called into Coast to Coast AM to describe something her father encountered when he went camping:
“I listened to your show last week and you were talking about Men in Black. I'm telling you, my father had a story all throughout my life. This was early 50s when this happened and he later went into a very high level of law enforcement. He was a policeman at the time and he actually saw a UFO and it was in the paper. We kept that. He was looking up into the sky with this other policeman and he said it was huge. Just huge. The pivotal story is and I'm thinking now it was connected...that I didn't realize what he'd seen shortly after, connected. And I did not connect it with the Men in Black either.
He and his buddies went up into the mountains to fish. This was about six months later. And they were around the fire. He said it was about 11 o'clock at night. And he said literally out of the bushes and trees, these two Men in Black, like funeral black, walked up to the fire and he said the weird thing was they had dark glasses on. When he started telling the story I was about five years old and I'm 68 now. He said they were very pale, long hands and he poked his buddy as he pointed down...there was dust everywhere, but their shoes weren't dusty. He said it was the creepiest thing. They didn't speak to them. Very tall, very pale, he said, not monstrous looking but strange looking, and they didn't speak at all. They were there about maybe 15 minutes in front of the fire and then they turned and they walked into the bush. He said, I think they disappeared but I don't know, but it was just strange. But he said, We looked at each other and there was this sense of foreboding, of evil, and he said, Let's get the heck out of here, and they left.
(George Knapp, the host, asks her to clarify the time this event happened and when her father first told her the story) I was 5 or 6 when it happened (1954) and it was probably in my teens, about ten years later, and he would tell people. He didn't know what it was. He's been dead about ten years. (Knapp asks if they said anything) They didn't say a word, they just stood there looking at them.”

GARGOYLES IN THE TRAILER!

"The only way I can describe it was it looked almost like a gargoyle. As far as the face, deformed like some of them can actually get. It was grotesque and it just giggled."
I received the following account:
“This incident happened to me when I was a boy. My sister, myself, and my parents lived in a small trailer out in Connersville, Florida, which is a little way out from Bartow. My sister and I shared a room with a bunk bed and there was always something kind of off about the room.
There was one night when my mother came in while my sister and I had been asleep for probably three or four hours. She woke us both up and said I don't know what it is, but you two need to come to sleep on the floor your dad and mine's room. There's just something not right. So we hated to but we went in there and we fixed the bed on the floor and my mom, she went through the house and checked the locks and everything, and everything was fine. So, we all laid down and I'd say an hour and a half later, there were sounds at the front door and we heard the front door open. My mom was up, I guess, and my dad and sister both were asleep. I was still awake, and we heard pitter-patter, almost sounding like children running in the house. This was about 3:30 or 4 o'clock in the morning. The way the trailer was set up, you had a door that connected to the hallway and to my parent's bedroom and one into the bathroom. So we heard these things run into the bathroom. You could hear them giggling and then it was just the weirdest sound. It didn't sound like a usual childish giggle.
My mom thought she had locked both of the doors that connected to the bathroom and to the hallway. Well, the door that connected to the hallway, opened slowly and this little short thing peaked its head through. Pardon my French, but it scared the hell out of me. It looked almost like it was wearing a hood on part of its head. It was probably about two and a half to three feet tall. And the face, it was a... the only way I can describe it was it looked almost like a gargoyle. As far as the face, deformed like some of them can actually get. It was grotesque and it just giggled, putting its hand on its mouth almost like, you know, I didn't mean to disturb you. It just stood there for a minute and I'm about to have a panic attack, you know, sitting there, staring at that thing. I couldn't move. I felt like I was in shock. And my mom, she didn't move or say anything, you know. I didn't think she knew I was awake. And after a few minutes, it went back into the bathroom with the other ones and shut the door.
They were in there too close to daylight, then the door opened and then they went right back outside. I didn't tell my mom what I saw until a couple of days later. I was just too afraid that if I did, they would just come back. And I told her and she told me she saw the same exact thing. (Dave asks about what prompted her to go in and get the kids). That night, she had like a feeling that God was telling her to get the kids and bring them into the bedroom, they don't need to be in there. She said that's the only way she can describe it. She said she was lying there asleep and then she just woke up and that feeling just hit her harder than a brick. It felt like it was trying to make its territory known, basically, we can come and go anytime we want. It was playing mind games with us – my mom and myself. The feeling I got from it was that it was not good. It was evil.” K
