Possible PSYCHIC & CLOAKED SASQUATCH Encounter at Pine Grove Furnace State Park, PA

A south-central Pennsylvania man recalls his encounter with, what he believes was, a juvenile Sasquatch that may have been psychic and displayed an ability to cloak or become invisible.

I recently received the following account:

"Hi, Lon. I have read your Sasquatch and cryptid canine reports for south-central Pennsylvania, in particular in the Pine Grove Furnace State Park. I had an unexplained incident at that same location in the spring of 2019. When it occurred I did not understand it at all. It made no sense. A year later I read a book titled 'The Psychic Sasquatch and Their UFO Connection' and thinking back on the event things began to fall into place. I think I scared a juvenile Sasquatch and then it tried to scare me. This is what happened.

I drove south on Pine Grove Rd. and pulled into a spot near Laurel Lake, parked my truck, and got out. I hiked into the nearest woods along an unmarked trail. I carry a rather large revolver in a shoulder holster for self-defense. As I was about to sit down on a stump I unzipped my coat and placed my hand in my gun to check it as it felt shifted. The second I put my hand on it all hell broke loose. There was a loud crashing sound of branches breaking and something heavy hit the ground. I turned and lost my footing and fell to the ground. As I lay there something ran past me. I not only heard it I could feel it in the ground, leaves were falling all around me. I got to my feet looking all around but there was nothing I could see and I quickly left. I hiked back to the parking lot, jumped in my truck, and moved to a different place in the park near Fuller Lake. I went to a picnic table and sat down trying to figure out what just happened.

It was about 2 hours later when as I'm sitting there thinking I heard the sound of about 5 or 6 large trees breaking in half and then a splash in the water. I cannot emphasize enough how loud this was. It sounded like a Mack truck crashing through the woods and into the lake next to me. I jumped up looking around and there was nothing. There were 3 people around me and no one reacted, not even a dog nearby. I was the only one that heard it. From what I have recently read these things can read your mind and project thoughts and images, and sounds to you.

Thinking back on it I believe when I put my hand on my gun something jumped out of that tree and ran like hell, and as strange as it sounds it was invisible. Then it followed me and projected a sound to scare me back. The main reason I believe it was a Sasquatch is that there are tree bends and branch formations in many parts of the park. All of them are perfectly aligned to the north and south. People may never report them there but I think they are very much there." D

ROBED SEMI-TRANSPARENT 'LIGHT BEINGS' Encountered in Dunwoody, Georgia

A boy and his mother are walking to the bus stop in Dunwoody, Georgia when they are encountered by several robed semi-transparent humanoids or 'light beings.'

The following account was forwarded to me:

"I was 10 years of age when this incident occurred. I and my family were living in an apartment complex at the time in Dunwoody, Georgia. I was walking with my mother to the bus stop. Suddenly, about 5 to 10 feet away (there was an apartment building about 15 to 20 ft being them) to the right side of my mother and me, there were what seemed to be 2 or 3 of these humanoid beings which were covered in what seemed to be white robes and emitting bright light around their bodies. This bright light is what probably caught my attention in the first place. I pointed to them and asked my mother what those people were, something along those lines. My mother remembered me asking her this but she did not see anything. She told me she just felt a very strong presence. The fact that she was there with me and remembers me asking her these questions is proof to me that it was not a hallucination or dream. One of these beings was standing in front of the other 1 or 2 beings behind it.

I cannot remember the appearance of the beings in the back but I could clearly see the face of the one standing in front. It seemed very human-like, youthful. It had curly hair and a blank stare until it noticed that I was looking at it and then its eyes widened as if it was surprised that I had noticed it observing us. I was not supposed to be able to see them once I and the being in front made eye contact. Everything on their upper torso was white with a grey tone kind of mixture, including their faces. They were almost transparent like one would imagine a typical ghostly figure to be. I mentioned only 'upper torso' because I don't recall them having any hands or legs, including feet. They also seemed to be floating because of this. I turned my head for one second and then quickly back but as I did, I remember seeing them sort of float or hover away back down some stairs that were in the vicinity. I lost site after that.

These beings seemed to be conscience of some sort, aware of their surroundings, and did not want to be seen by me or anyone else but they did seem to be there for a reason. I do not remember anything before or after this event but my mother told me it started off as a normal day and after I got back from school she told me I asked her again about the beings. I have sketches that I have drawn but can't find them at the moment. When I do, I will be sure to send them if needed. In the meantime, if you have any useful information that I could use about what on Earth I saw that day please send me anything as this has been on my mind ever since my early teens. I am now in my mid-20s and although I have had a few unexplained occurrences throughout my life, none of which were as vivid as this was. I have not seen anything, on that level, like that since." L

'PHOENIX?' 'FIREBIRD?' What Was Recorded in Yellowstone National Park? (VIDEO/PHOTO)

A strange colorful bird was spotted on the Grand Teton National Park live webcam just days after a highly popular area near Jenny Lake in Grand Teton National Park located near Yellowstone National Park has been closed to the public for the immediate future due to concerns over expanding cracks and fissures in a large rock formation. This occurred in June 2018.

While Yellowstone seems to be in a perpetual state of unrest with its Steamboat geyser that erupted constantly and the expanding cracks and fissures at the Grand Teton National Park, the appearance of this colorful bird that resembles the mythological fire bird is at least odd.

The firebird also called a phoenix is a sacred firebird found in the mythologies of many cultures and described as a large magical glowing bird with majestic plumage that glows brightly emitting red, orange, and yellow light, like a bonfire that is just past the turbulent flame.

What was this anomaly? Lon

Herpetologist Encounters HUMAN-LIKE BIGFOOT in the Chattahoochee National Forest

An Atlanta, Georgia herpetologist encounters a supposed Bigfoot while in the Chattahoochee National Forest. From the description, the creature seemed more fearful than aggressive.

The following account was forwarded to me:

“I'm from Atlanta, Georgia and I'm a herpetologist. I travel frequently into the north Georgia mountains, up into the Helen area in the Chattahoochee-Oconee National Forest. On this day, I was going there to observe some wildlife that I frequently study. This was last September 2016. It was approximately 5 or 6 o'clock in the evening and as I was going to my usual sites and I observed that there was no wildlife active. I didn't notice it at first but I did later on and as I was walking.

I walked up to a ridge and I noticed there was something diagonal from me. It was on the ground and it wasn't moving. I was about 20 to 25 feet away from it. I moved towards it and it jumped up and spun around very quickly. I realized, you know, this was something very out of the ordinary, something I hadn't seen before. And it was sitting there and it was staring at me and some minutes had passed and, at this point in time, it was making moans or growls. It was making sounds close to that. That's the best way I can describe it. It was man-like. It was approximately 7 and a half to 8 feet tall and 4 and a half feet from shoulder to shoulder. It was very large and bulky. Some might say it was ape-like but in my opinion, due to my studying various wildlife, it was not anything close to being an ape. It was like a man. There was absolutely nothing ape about it. Very muscular. The hands, the best I can describe the hands are about a size 13 or 14 or maybe even larger, as far as trying to fit a ring on it. Very muscular. I cannot stress this enough. You could see the whites of the eyes, unlike other creatures. They were squinted and aggressive. The forehead was not apelike. It was more homo sapiens than ape. It did have full body hair except for the hands and feet. There was hair on the knees and elbows. It had hair like a man. The teeth. I was able to observe the teeth as they were bared most of the time. The teeth were like a man's. They did have 3 or 4 canines but they were worn and pretty nasty. I stood in front of this creature for a significant amount of time. I didn't know whether to run or just stand there or do whatever you do. Definitely, this creature could outrun me. Like I was saying, the hands and the skin were tanned. They weren't black. I wouldn't even say dark brown. They were just tanned. It did have fingernails. Human-like. They didn't have blood on them. I was able to tell that.

This was all happening and as I was observing its hands, he was sizing me up. That's the best way I can describe it. Then picked up a log. I was able to observe that. He was most likely right-handed. I know this is going to be hard to believe but it's true and it chucked it in my general direction. Notice I said 'him.' It did have male sexual organs. I was able to observe that. No tail. It walked upright. It had brownish-reddish hair. It was matted. I'm not 100% sure if it was due to the Georgia clay or if that was his actual hair color. I was able to observe it was a mix of brown and red.

After it chucked the log, at this point in time, I started backing up slowly. It didn't charge me or try to beat me or anything like that I was expecting. I was slowly backing up. There was a strong stench and body odor. Somewhat that of a wet dog. But, I'd say, probably a hundred times stronger. I was backing up and this all happened within 2 minutes. And I slowly started backing up down the ridge and eventually, I got out of sight and I made a beeline back to where I came from.

It was definitely real, beyond a shadow of a doubt. It was what some might say was a Bigfoot, Sasquatch, or whatever. It was not a man. It was not a native creature that's seen every day. Someone might make their own decision about it. That's all I got to say.

There wasn't much to compare it to but about 400 pounds. The forehead was sunken back and the shoulders were more forward. It didn't have a proper human posture. It was definitely leaning more forward than straight up. It's rare to see somebody that would be as muscular as that creature. It was exhibiting more caution, on the verge of aggression. The eyes. I was able to observe the eyes did have more downright fear, but there was aggressiveness there. The eyes were squinted. The breathing was rapid and going by the noises the creature was making, it was threatened.” A

BIGFOOT Chases 4-Wheelers at Brown Mountain, Alaska

Author Robert Alley appeared on the Bigfoot Tonight Show in 2013 and told of a frightening encounter an outdoorsman friend of his had on Brown Mountain, Alaska.

“A fellow firefighter who moved to Anchorage that was a friend had a surprising encounter with his wife and his buddy and his buddy's wife on two quads. They were on two ATVs and it was on Revilla Island about 12 miles north of Ketchikan it was the bottom of the Brown Mountain Road and it was the scene of a pretty hair-raising encounter with what really seemed to have been an irate Sasquatch which reportedly chased these two couples who were four wheeling down Brown Mountain in August two years ago, that's August 2011 and, I'll just call him, Curtis, he's a personable 27-year-old Ketchikan outdoorsman. He's moved up to Anchorage now and he worked here in retail and did EMT and firework firefighting in his off hours he was able to give these details which I corroborated with the other witnesses.

In Curtis’ words, basically, I'll just read my recording.

On the evening of August 26, 2011, I was with my girlfriend and another couple on two 4-wheelers. We were having an evening ride on the Brown Mountain Road to the top of the clear cut that's 3000... that's up near, maybe 1,500 feet, we had parked our trucks around 8 PM at the paintball gravel quarry halfway along the road that's still closer to sea level some miles away and we rode our four-wheelers to Harriet Hunt Lake and all around the area before going up the Brown Mountain Road sometime around 11 PM, up to the top of the mountain for awhile then back down. It wasn't raining and we had moonlight so we just kept riding until 11:45 PM and then turned around to come back down. My friends were ahead of us and we were just trying to see how far down the road we could coast in neutral. My girlfriend and I, who is his wife now, just passed the campsite by the bridge and creek near the bottom of the road when I thought I heard footsteps running down the road behind us and then my girlfriend looked around and said, 'Something's chasing us!'

I kicked the quad into gear and accelerated to over 40 miles per hour but I could hear that it was still following us. It was fast, that's for sure. Well, he continued, it was just near the bottom of the road where Brown Mountain Road meets White River Road that I made a quick decision to slow down a bit to be able to make the turn and touch the brakes slightly and take a quick look behind us in the brake-light to see what I could. It was only about 20 feet or so behind us and I was kind of shocked that the thing was as tall as it was. It was not a bear, seven feet tall and heavily built. Here my machine does 60 at the top and I pegged it after the corner, he said, I passed my friend on his machine. His machine does 70 and we raced the 7 minutes back to the quarry to load up and leave quickly, you know, I just, at this point, I just want to add with Tanner (the friend) he had no idea at this point what was going on, only that Curtis and his fiance or his girlfriend we're tearing past him. On the way, I could hear our girlfriend's voice over the engines urging us to go faster. I pulled up just 10 seconds behind him. Tanner weighs 260 pounds and he was lifting his 300-pound machine onto the open bed of his truck by himself as soon as I pulled up, he was helping me. Well, while we were loading my four-wheeler onto my truck, our girlfriends had taken my small tactical flashlight and they've been shining it back down the road where we come and all around and, he said, I believe they were both talking about what we'd seen chasing us and I heard the word Bigfoot. As they showed the light, I noticed three surprising things.

First, he said, there was a big black bear in the paintball part of the quarry, the local paintball club uses it, about 35 yards away, and there was another, this is quite remote, and there was another smaller bear less than 20 yards away, these are both black bears, coming slowly out of the bush on our side of the road. That would have been close to a valley drop-off that goes down 500 feet at the edge of the drop-off to the valley in the east. At that moment, I was still trying to strap my quad onto the truck bed and Tanner and our girlfriends were standing right beside me they were scanning the beam back and forth when I heard some kind of gravel noise down the road and the girls screamed. I looked in the direction of the beam and I was really shocked to see a tall heavy shape standing in the middle of the road about 40 yards back, the way we'd come. It was right on the road in front of a big waterfall area. It was exactly the size and shape of the thing that had chased us down Brown Mountain Road. About 7 feet tall. But it would have had to have been running 40 to 45 miles an hour to have got to where we were loading. I measured it out myself later, you know, 3.5 miles... it was really... it all matched. Well, the data confirmed it. When the light hit it, it dropped to a football player's stance. It was kind of bobbing up and down with one hand on the road and the other on its knee.

At that time, the smaller black bear behind us that had just come out of the bush turned around and took off back into the bush, over the edge like, I want to get out of here! Everything was happening all at once. As the girls turned for the truck, I could see the beam hit the big bear in the paintball area and it was going crazy knocking barrels over and crashing into things trying to get away from us or the big flipping thing. So Curtis summed it up, he said, the girls jumped in the trucks and they were yelling at us to get in and both Tanner and I started to drive off. In almost the same second Tanner had to stop for 10 seconds to throw his ramps in the back and I look back to see the thing, but there wasn't enough light, and I was focusing on getting out of there. We didn't stop at all.

On the way back my girlfriend and I talked about it. We both agree that it had to have been a Bigfoot we saw. We talked with Tanner and his girlfriend back in Ketchikan and they agreed. That was it, he told me. I'll be back there for deer hunting and I'll be carrying a camera he said. What happened to us may sound amazing but those are the straight facts as best as I can describe them, he says. I've seen documentaries of Sasquatches on television and you have to say that the creature observed there twice the evening of August 26 matched the general description of a Bigfoot.”

'I Now Believe in ALIENS & MEN IN BLACK'

A suburban Maryland resident is at home at night when he hears the sound of a break-in. Soon he is rendered unconscious. He later awakes during an apparent alien abduction. 

I recently received the following account:

"It was December 2017. I was living in suburban Maryland, just northeast of Washington DC. I woke up at 1:30 AM to the sound of a break-in. I grabbed a handgun from my bedside drawer and went to the bedroom door to confront the intruder, but was suddenly rendered unconscious as I touched the doorknob.

I woke up naked and cold in a pill-shaped, glass container. The lid was open, so I was able to stumble out onto the floor around the container. I felt drugged and could barely walk, but I thought I'd been kidnapped by someone so I was urgently trying to find an escape route. The room I was in was made of composite materials, namely concrete and plastic with fluorescent lights. I limped into a hallway that was tunnel-shaped and followed a blue glow coming from down the hall. As I walked, I came out of the tunnel and entered a large cylindrical room lined with vehicles on hooks along the walls. They were human vehicles, mostly Japanese and German cars/motorcycles, but some vehicles were clearly from the American military.

In the center of the room was what looked like a metal tree that was six stories tall with glowing blue leaves. But upon closer inspection, this tree was a large metal cylinder and the leaves were capsules much like the one I'd woken up in, except these still had people inside them and were radiating a neon blue glow. As I drew my eyes further up the tree, I noticed some blue wires moving around in the dark area toward the ceiling. These clumps of wires suddenly floated down toward me and turned to reveal that they had faces in them, each with two large dark eyes and narrow slits for noses and mouths. It's hard to describe, and I hate to put it this way, but think of a stereotypical "Grey Alien" face and picture it floating in a tangled-up mess of tentacles. there were three of them, one smiling, two frowning. There was an exchange of words and charades between myself and the smiling one for roughly 10 minutes, but I was so exhausted and they were so advanced that there was no pertinent information shared between us.

I passed out, then woke up again face-down in a puddle of my own drool on a glass floor. I was too tired to move, so I tilted my head up just enough to take a look around. The room was circular, about 150 square feet in size, and a bright sterile white color. One of the tentacle creatures was in the room but was busy facing away and operating a set of strange controls with no buttons or levers. I laid my head back down but saw through the glass floor that we had risen out of a deep black hole that was dug into a grassy plain. a rock-shaped lid closed around the hole to cover it as we flew further up. This is when I realized I was in a spacecraft, and we had actually been in a silo of some sort that's here on Earth somewhere. I passed out and was awoken by the sensation of being dropped back-first onto my bed with a hard thud. I checked my phone and it read 6:30am. The whole trip had been exactly five hours.

I'm not going into any further detail, but I found an object had been inserted and cauterized into my right leg, and I had a run-in with some men in black suits within four days of the abduction. I've never believed in abductions or UFOs or MIB or any of that, but now I've got no choice. I'm annoyed that there's no official place to get legitimate information or help on this subject since the experience was traumatic and any kind of clarity would help fix that." G

Is the U.S. GOVERNMENT & MILITARY Involved in the BIGFOOT PHENOMENON?

Ever since my Bigfoot encounter in May 1981, and the apparent government interest in that incident, I have attempted to gather and present evidence of a possible connection.

I recently became aware of the following account:

"I'm an ex-combat vet who survived tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. I have been wounded twice and came home back in 2011. I was stationed at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. One Night in January 2012, I was on guard detail at a medium-sized perimeter station with concrete walls two feet thick and a solid steel blast door a foot thick just about half a mile from the Missouri River.

The guard with me stepped out to grab a smoke. This was around midnight in a snowstorm. Then he started banging on the door within a minute of him going outside. I open the door and said like, "What the F! You just went out there!" He's like, "There's something out here! It's not a man, it's not any animal!" He never heard it screaming at him but he couldn't see it. So I stepped out with him and we could hear something very big just into the woods about a hundred feet away. Then we heard a scream...roar! We both went back inside and locked the door.

Within minutes the thing started banging on the door with such force that it took me back to combat. Readiness in a flash! We looked at each other and at the monitors in the station. We could see only the top of its head.

Long story short, we finally opened the door after it took off and found dents in the solid metal door. Mind you, yeah, it still freaks me out! Footprints in the snow were 21 inches long that led over the perimeter fence which is 15 feet high with razor wire. The prints were headed toward the river.

I'm a very rational person, but I had to share this. I never told anyone except my comrade who was on duty with me that night. It changed both of us to this day." M

NOTE: I found this report very interesting since I do believe that there is government and military interest in the Bigfoot phenomenon. The account was different with respect to the information I received subsequent to my Bigfoot encounter near Sykesville, Maryland in May 1981. But I still find it relevant and curious:

The forensic sketch I commissioned after my encounterand after my interviews with 10 witnesses of the creature during the1973 encounters in Sykesville, Maryland

Over the past 40 years and since my appearance on 'Monsters and Mysteries in America' (Sykesville Monster' episode) was first aired, I've received many inquiries concerning my encounter on May 9, 1981, near Sykesville, Maryland. To be honest, I've had a few lingering questions about my sighting as well, in particular, 'What did I actually see?' Was it a Bigfoot or something else? At the time, I called it a 'Bigfoot' because that was the only way I could have described it. It wasn't human and it wasn't an ape. I have tried to comprehend exactly what it was I witnessed.

One of the more consistent questions I have received concerns the quick reaction by officials after my phone call to the local police. I feel that this being had been under close surveillance at the time I witnessed it. The only two scenarios that I feel may be plausible are either: 1) other witnesses made reports earlier that day or, 2) this being had escaped from an unknown location.

The Sykesville Police Dept. have no records of what happened that day. No phone logs, and no reports. In fact, the local police have no records of the '1973 Sykesville Monster' incidents either. I have made FOIA inquiries to all agencies that I feel were involved. No information has ever been forwarded to me.

On May 23, 2014, I received a telephone call from a former military contractor who lived in Maryland. We set up an interview for that evening.

The first question to me was, 'Have you ever heard of a location in the Sykesville area referred to as 'the monkey house?' Apparently, one of the witnesses from 1973 had made a comment at the time that 'it' (the Sykesville Monster) was probably from the 'monkey house.' None of the witnesses I talked to in 1981, after my encounter, ever mentioned 'the monkey house.'

I made several inquiries about 'the monkey house.' According to one source, the original witness may have been referring to a two-story building that once stood near the present-day police and correctional training facility on Slacks Rd., which was located just south of the former sprawling Springfield Hospital Center. This building was officially designated as a laundry facility used by the state hospital. I recall the building; from what I remembered, it had significant security. I was told, at the time, that correctional inmates were kept there to launder clothing and linens as part of a work detail. Many locals questioned this explanation, it just didn't seem right. The moniker 'monkey house' may have been used, for the most part, by people who worked at Springfield. The building was eventually razed and replaced by a residential community.

The contractor stated that he was ex-USAF and had worked at a government facility north of Baltimore in Harford County in the early 1980s. I'm not going to name the location at this time, but it does still exist. He was part of a group of ex-military who were employed to perform general work around the facility.

On one particularly hot and humid day, he and the crew were working outside of a specific building at this government facility. They had been told that they could walk inside the building if they needed a quick break and a drink of water. He states that he entered the building looking for a water fountain, but couldn't locate one. He walked deeper into the building and soon witnessed a 'large heavy reinforced door' that seemed out of place. The door had been damaged as if it were rammed by something of significant size and power.

By this time, he was approached by a woman in uniform who informed him that he was in a classified area and that he must leave immediately. He explained he was just looking for the water fountain. A security officer was now on the scene and he directed the witness to the water fountain. As they were heading toward the building exit, the witness inquired about the damaged door. The security officer only mentioned that the 'door was damaged by something confined behind it.'

After several years of scrutiny and questions, the contractor believes that the building was used for research and contained unknown bipedal beings that had somehow escaped between 1979-1984. He had received information that 20-34 individuals of both sexes had been in the building at some period. He also mentioned that during this period there had been many Bigfoot sightings at Rocks State Park and Gunpowder Falls State Park, which are located near the government facility.

I had been aware of the increased number of Bigfoot sightings in these locations over that time period, but I don't know if these sightings are related to the aforementioned escapes. Of course, this information is completely anecdotal and based on one witness' account.

So, let's be hypothetical for a second. Is it possible that the being I witnessed near Sykesville, Maryland in 1981 was an escaped 'experiment?' Was there a facility in the Sykesville area, known to some as the 'monkey house?' Was there another incident, or series of incidents, at another facility in Maryland during the same period?

Below are a few links that detail more information that I have gathered, as well as other 'Sykesville Monster' material:

CHICAGO MOTHMAN? Two Flying Cryptids Recorded by City Resident (VIDEO)

May 2019 / Chicago, Illinois, U.S. / May 2019. Ken Ross was sitting on his front porch in Chicago, Illinois enjoying the day when he and his neighbor looked up and noticed a black amorphous unidentified flying object in the sky. After watching it for some time, Ken broke out his cell phone and began recording. What he captured is truly bizarre.

In the video, a huge dark shape can be seen flying around in the cloud-covered sky from right to left. It is soon joined by a second smaller entity that looks just like it. Ken and his neighbor can be heard talking in the background, noting its funny shape, and how slow and erratic it's moving. “That's no helicopter. There are two of them! One of them is following the other one. The other one is way up there,” Ken can be heard to say.

At first, they appear to be solid but then they start to change shape in real time becoming almost cryptid-looking, with visible moving wings. Ken's tape was featured on an episode 'Paranormal Caught on Camera' which aired on July 12, 2020. He was interviewed about what he filmed: “I was in awe. We jumped off the porch and were like man, a UFO, you know what I'm saying? So it was something exciting to us... to bear witness to something like that. We're from an urban area of Chicago... it was something shocking. For us to witness something, you know, you hear about it all the time in rural places, you know, Wyoming, Arizona, some places like that, but in Chicago... east side of Chicago? It was something strange and unknown.”

On whether or not it was some type of conventional object, Ken was adamant that it wasn't. “It wasn’t nothing man-made as far as airplane, you know, helicopter, balloon or anything like that, even the way it was moving and the distance that it was flying, it wasn't a drone.”According to Ken, the objects hovered overhead for about 30 minutes before disappearing into some clouds.

The 'Paranormal Caught on Camera' hosts were equally confused by what they were seeing. Host Sapphire Sandalo (of the 'Something Scary Podcast') noted that its shape was “very peculiar”. She added, “It doesn’t look like a plane or a helicopter, like something recognizable. It's also too big to be a bird. The way that it's moving, it looks like it's moving very very fast across the sky.”

Host Derek Hayes (of the 'Monsters Among Us Podcast') pointed out its seeming shape-shifting ability: “These dark objects seem to change shape every couple frames. I don’t know if it's a tumbling object or if it's just so weirdly shaped that every little corner looks different but its definitely disorienting.”

Mark Screuman (of 'Weird NJ' Magazine) doubted that it was the usual culprit in these types of cases - a drone. “Drones usually, you know, they're level, and they move around. These things seem to be, like, all over the place.”

Host Rachel Evans wondered if they might actually be creatures of some type. “It looked like a cryptid to me. Did you see that it was in motion and that its shape of it was moving with the motion? It seemed to be flapping in some weird way.”

Host Aaron Sagers (of the 'Talking Strange Podcast') went one step further, wondering if Ken's sighting was somehow connected to the Chicago Phantom sightings. “I'm gonna go out on a limb here. This is a little bit crazy but there have been Mothman sightings in Chicago. I don’t know who is flying over those skies but that was what came to mind when I was watching this.”

OFFUTT USAF BASE GHOSTS: Does General Curtis E. LeMay Haunt the Base?

Dark figures in rafters, others disappearing and walking through locked doors, and the distinct smell of cigar smoke. These are just a few of the reported ghostly happenings at Offutt USAF Base (Nebraska).

The following information was forwarded to me:

"Several buildings at Offutt have a rich history, among them is Building D, the former Martin Plant where several World War II bombers, including the Enola Gay, were assembled. The building now houses several different squadrons and agencies at Offutt.

Mike Little, who works in Building D with the 55th Support Squadron, said he hasn’t had many spooky experiences in Building D, but he has had a few.

“Sometimes we would have things at night, education and training in some of the classrooms and so I would be walking around down there,” Little said of the lower level of the building, where the Education and Training Center was formerly located.

Little said that often he would hear somebody walking behind him, the sound of the scuffing of shoes. “Several times, something about it bothered me and I would stop to look back but no one was there,” he said. Though Little said his own experience could be chalked up to nerves, others have reported seeing figures in several different areas.

In 1943, three crewmen on a test drive of a B-25 Mitchell bomber were killed when the bomber crashed through the roof of the building while on a test drive. A fourth crewman was critically injured.

“People have reportedly seen shapes walking around up in the rafters,” he said. “They’re shaped like people, but they’re more like these dark shapes.”

Aside from dark figures, many have reported seeing people in odd-looking uniforms walk past them in the building.

“We have a lot of different uniforms here at Offutt. We’ve got Army, Marines, Navy, even foreign militaries here sometimes,” Little said. “It’s not uncommon to see a strange uniform. But in some cases, people will say something about the uniform strikes them as odd and they’ll turn around to say something, ask them what they’re doing here, and they’ll be gone.”

Building D has several tunnels underneath it, now abandoned and sealed off. One of the tunnels reportedly connects to another building rumored to be haunted: General Curtis E. LeMay’s former office, now home to the base’s legal offices.

Master Sgt. Rosie Bevel, who has worked in the building for the last six years, said she has noticed a few consistently odd things. “I’ve smelled the cigar smoke in the stairwells,” Bevel said. Rumors of the smell of cigar smoke have been circulating for years. General LeMay was known as an avid cigar smoker who enjoyed many puffs right in that very building.

The toilets on the second floor, the same floor LeMay’s former office sat, can often be heard flushing on their own in the men’s room. “It’s always been at night when I’m by myself,” Bevel said. “My kids noticed it as well. They’ve censored toilets but it’s just weird.”

Aside from those consistencies, Bevel has also had a couple of unexplained experiences.

“I was sitting down and we were doing entry control point, which is where we monitor people entering the building,” she said. “There were some people in the conference room behind me and they had closed the door. I heard the door open and turned around. I was expecting them to come out but they didn’t. They thought I had opened the door.”

She hadn’t, and she said the door had not opened all the way but was left partially open. “You just got this weird feeling,” Bevel said. “It was the strangest thing.”

Another incident occurred as Bevel and a colleague were leaving the building one night around 8 or 9 p.m. “There was a sign hanging in one of the hallways just swinging back and forth like somebody had hit it,” she said. “We just chalked it up to a breeze or something.”

Several strange happenings are also rumored to have taken place in the communications building. Now home to the 55th Communications Group, the building is the former base hospital, built in the 1950s when the Fort Crook Hospital was torn down to make room for Building D.

“It was primarily one incident I had working there in the communication building,” said Donna Rush. “I was in the building by myself late at night. The building was pitch dark except for my little office. I was on my way back from the lady's room. I turned to my right and looked down the hallway, the exit signs kind of illuminated the path. At the very end of the hallway, I saw this figure come out of an office door and go across the hall into another door. I thought it looked like a younger person in a night-shirt kind of thing. I turned around and kind of blinked my eyes and saw the same figure come from that door and it went back across into another door. All the doors were locked. I had heard the stories before, but when I saw that figure... it was very odd.”

Rush said her office mate had shared her own spooky experience with Rush when she first began working in the building. “She had said, ‘Don’t stay late at night,’” Rush said. “She was sitting there once, working and our desks are separated by a tall partition, you can’t see over it.

“She was here alone and said by my side, by the window, she heard this sound like someone slapping on the desk, someone pounding on the desk. She said she just got up and left. It was like they didn’t want her there.”

INSECTOID ABDUCTIONS, Loss of Pregnancies, 'Scoop Marks,' & Other Unexplained Phenomena (PHOTO)

A California woman details a lifetime of possible abduction and other weird occurrences. She has experienced a multitude of incidents that seem to be connected, including loss of pregnancy.

The following email was forwarded to me:

"I actually think I have been abducted during my entire life. I am 23 years old and things started getting weird when I was 7. They always happened in different ways, when I'm sleeping, laying in bed, or driving in the car.

This last time, I was sleeping and I thought it was a dream. But waking up I was so panicked I'm pretty sure it wasn't.

I knew right away they weren't human because they had cricket faces with these tall muscular bodies and strange jumpsuits. The only way I could describe them was this metallic light rose gold almost leather-type material (but it wasn't) with an assortment of zippers and buttons (but they weren't that they just looked like that but they weren't from this earth).

I was walking down a dirt road and they were still talking among themselves but I didn't have enough time to run so I just laid myself down like a rug and buried my face in the dirt. I was so terrified and confused that I just wanted to disappear.

They just walked up to me and one crouched over me and then I blacked out.

I seem to have these 2 perfectly round scoop marks that appeared on my back right calf leg.

I have encountered lost time, sleep paralysis, encountered lights in the skies, humming noises, sleep problems, medical problems, crazy electronic malfunctions, and a couple other symptoms. My problems with technology have gotten so bad that I actually have to get a new phone once a month since they keep breaking.

Ever since I was little only my bedroom would get blackouts [except for when I was home alone then the whole house would get blackouts]. It actually became such a regular occurrence I thought it was normal. The TV would never turn on the channel I turned it off. I got this weird perfectly round puddle of water that appeared on my bed. I had something scratch the hell out of me to the point that I was bleeding. Lights ALWAYS turn off when I go near them or take a while to turn on. I have always had incredible intuition too which seems to be connected with abductions. And strangest of all my boyfriend and I was almost completely sure I was pregnant 3 separate times, I had all the signs, symptoms, and belly but then overnight I wasn't anymore!

Another time my friend and I were driving down the freeway when we observed a lot of lights in the skies that were all different sizes about 3 groups large lights that looked like helicopters almost and medium and small lights that looked like stars and they started doing some crazy things. They would group up from largest to smallest in a straight light then they would get all mixed up and one would fly in front of the other covering it up. we experienced lost time, what should've been a 20-minute drive turned into an hour-long trip.

For years now I have been having these horrific nightmares where I was with this big group of people we were standing on the beach and looking at the sky expecting something to come to us. then these lights appeared almost like a milky way and then all of a sudden I'm up in space in a spaceship (I think) I just remember gray walls almost like how space mountain at Disneyland looked! I could've sworn I remember seeing a control room area I dunno. but then the dreams turned horrifying these lasted for months and they were always slightly different but I was running through these black halls almost like a dark parking garage trying to escape monsters with a bunch of other people as well. and also just living in the spaceship I think it was almost like a spacey hotel. the dreams are all mixed together but if you put them in sequence it's like I lived there for a bit fine then things turned bad but they could just be dreams.

What panics me though is these scoop mark indentations. I have been researching other abduction marks and these look like them. You can very obviously feel the perfectly round indentations and there was absolutely no blood or damage when they appeared.
