MAN (& WOMAN) IN BLACK? Unexplained Incident in North York, Toronto, Canada

During the past decade or so I have been collecting information related to a strange incident that occurred in the L'Amoreaux neighborhood of North York in metro Toronto, Ontario.

On the evening of July 26, 2012, a girl in her late teens and her boyfriend were returning home after seeing the film 'Men In Black III', which had been released on the same day. As they approached her home they noticed a strange-looking woman with long black hair who was dressed in a long black dress and high-heel shoes walking towards them as they pulled into the driveway. Even though the vehicle had dark-tinted windows, the girl stated that "the woman made eye-to-eye contact with me." Alarmed by this frightening stranger, they immediately backed out of the driveway and pulled away from the location. The boyfriend decided to circle the neighborhood and then return back to his girlfriend's home. As the girl looked back, she was shocked to see that the woman was "walking very fast and following us." They increased speed and eventually lost their pursuant.

The girl calls home to warn her brother about the strange woman. While on the phone her brother looked out the window and the same woman in black was standing directly outside the window wildly waving her arms and staring at him. He looked away, then looked again. The woman had vanished. But, he promptly noticed something else. A man dressed in a black dress suit and wearing earplugs was walking in the street past the front of the house. The man looked straight ahead and was swinging his arms as he walked, almost like he was controlled somehow. The man proceeded down the street, still in sight of the witness, then unexpectedly vanished!

The girl and her boyfriend soon arrive at her home. The strangers were not in sight. After the witnesses detailed their experiences to each other they looked out the window to see if either of the strangers had returned. What they saw was a large black cat with bright eyes staring back at them. "It (the cat) almost seemed to know what we were saying and thinking" stated the girl. As they watched the curious feline it started to slowly walk toward the vegetation along the driveway, then it simply vanished before it reached the bushes.

Both the girl and her brother submitted audio statements to me, on separate days and apart from each other. Both statements were very similar in the description of specific details. I had made inquiries to investigators in the Toronto metro area as well as local officials. There have been no other similar incidents reported. I initially received this information by chance since it was brought up during an interview with one of the girl's relatives on an unrelated case. The relative noted the incident and I followed up on it.

The fact that these 'strangers' appeared on the same day as the movie release and that the witnesses had just seen the movie is interesting. The anomalous manner in which these series of sightings transformed seems to suggest that this was more than just a prank. The sensations experienced by the witnesses when the woman stared at them, as well as the atypical speed that the high-heeled stranger displayed during its pursuit of the vehicle indicate possible supernatural traits. Lon

BLACK-EYED CHILD Confronts Dog Walker in Cannock Chase, UK

The witness claimed the giggling child, dressed in rags, tugged on his coat before skipping off into the trees at Cannock Chase, UK. Was it a human being or a manifestation?

A dog walker has recalled the terrifying moment he was confronted by a 'pale-faced little girl' with 'completely black eyes' during a stroll through Cannock Chase. The man claimed the 'giggling child', 'dressed in rags', tugged on his coat before 'skipping off into the trees.'

It's thought he may have encountered the infamous 'Black Eyed Child' - believed to be the ghost of a young girl who was murdered in the area during the 1960s. Sighting in the Staffordshire forest dates back to the 1980s, with other theories suggesting the spooky figure could be an alien or demon.

The man, from Rugeley,.recounted his experience, the dog walker said: "I was walking my dog near Castle Ring around a month ago, at about 10pm. It wasn’t pitch black yet, but the sun had gone down.

"We were walking through the woods and suddenly I felt a weird sensation in my stomach, like a feeling of impending doom. And I also felt like I was being watched. My dog started to go mad and was pulling on the lead and barking. I've never known her get so frightened."

He continued: "I stopped to look around when I felt something tugging on the back of my coat. It made me jump, to be honest, and I quickly spun around to see what it was. You're probably going to think I'm bonkers but it was this pale-faced little girl.

"The thing is she had completely black eyes and something about her just didn't seem right. Like she wasn't human, her clothes were in rags. She giggled in a way that hurt my ears and sent chills down my spine, and then she skipped off into the trees. I was terrified and so was the dog. We left straight away" - Terrified dog walker says 'she wasn't human' after seeing 'Black Eyed Child' at Cannock Chase

(VIDEO) UNKNOWN HUMANOID Recorded on Cancun, Mexico Beach

An unknown humanoid was heard, then recorded, on a TikTok video by a witness. The incident occurred on a beach in Cancun, Mexico. A YouTube video is also provided.

"The account identified as @el_t0ny31 published a video where two young people are seen talking while lying on lounge chairs under a palapa on a beach in Cancun, the moment becomes murky when the surprised young people begin to scream and run upon seeing a humanoid creature.

The strange being passes behind the beds showing its elongated limbs, which has unleashed different theories among users who mention that it could be a demon or an alien.

Users have reacted to the strange being that has already accumulated more than 14.5 million views on the TikTok platform. Some of the comments that can be read in the publication are the following:

“I saw one like this swimming at Punta Esmeralda beach, Playa del Carmen”

"The day it really happens to them, they won't even be able to run"

“It was my uncle looking for his flip-flop”

And “No way! Incredibly, they saw one.”

Although it is unknown whether it could have been an extraterrestrial or paranormal being, several Internet users continue to share the strange humanoid being." - Young people are chased by a strange humanoid creature

Was A Small Mysterious Humanoid Creature Photographed In West Virginia? (July 31, 2024)

Possible WHITE HUMANOID Photographed in West Virginia (VIDEO)

Stan Gordon states that on August 1, 2024, he received an email report from a family member from West Virginia, about the sighting and photograph of an unknown white humanoid.

From: Researcher Stan Gordon

On August 1, 2024, I received an email report from a family member from West Virginia, concerning a strange incident that had taken place the previous evening. There was another family member who was involved in the incident. I was provided some general details of what had reportedly taken place. I also was sent a photo of something quite unusual and was told that this was what witnesses reported observing and why I was contacted.

As soon as I looked at the picture it immediately caught my interest. Over the years I have received numerous alleged photos of UFOs and even supposed cryptids, While some of those pictures were interesting, many were out of focus or were of distance views with little detail. This picture was noticeably clear and detailed.

Later that day, I was able to interview the person who had contacted me, and also the witness who was a minor. That young witness provided me with an incredibly detailed account of what took place. That witness came across as very credible and explained in great detail the observation of two short, odd-looking, “snowy white” humanoid beings that several children watched running around that evening.

It quickly became apparent to me this case would require a lot of investigation. There was a lot of research that needed to be done, and I was quite a distance away in Pennsylvania. It was determined at that time that the family would be contacting Ron Lanham of the Wild & Weird West Virginia research group to investigate the incident.

This strange occurrence occurred in July, at the same time that Ron had been receiving UFO/UAP reports. Here in Pennsylvania, July has also been highly active with detailed UFO/UAP incidents being reported and also some cryptid incidents as well. I am awaiting further details, and I will be posting more information on my website at a future time.

Ron has completed his investigation. You can view the photo and listen to Ron’s evaluation of the photo and the details of what took place. Ron also describes another anomalous event that also took place that same evening at another location in West Virginia. Ron talks about some other recent UFO incidents he is looking into that occurred in August.

ALIEN EXPERIMENTS ON HUMANS: Implants, Pathogens & Biological Materials (PHOTO)

Over the years, I have received reports of alien-implanted objects, seeded tumors, and the transmission of chronic and terminal diseases. As well, other experiencers were cured of sickness and afflictions by alien beings...including cancer, crippling rheumatoid arthritis and birth defects. So, what is the real alien agenda? Is it simply nondiscernible experimentation that results in good and bad effects? I am offering a few interesting emails I've collected from readers and others seeking answers:

"Hi - This story involves an unidentifiable metal implant found in the cheek of a family member. This was found by Parkland Hospital in Dallas Texas by X-Ray and MRI. This thing, whatever it is, was not something that we were ever previously told about nor was it anything associated with why he was receiving care at Parkland. They noted it several times and did not make any conclusions. Parkland made no mention of this thing to us or him. I discovered the reports of the implanted object after getting his medical files from Parkland from a private physician. The reports simply state there is a "metallic foreign body present in the right cheek". Oddly, the VA hospital in Dallas made no note whatsoever of the object in their MRI or X-Ray reports, yet there are numerous reports in the Parkland files. There is no wound accompanying the metal object. Our relative cannot feel it and did not know it was there.

This was discovered in May 2010 after he fell at home and the EMTs took him to Parkland where extensive testing was done and then approximately four days later he was transferred by ambulance to the VA hospital in Dallas.

He is retired and over the years I have wondered many times if the military implanted something in his body. He never was in battle or explosions but his job in the military was classified. I do know families of military guys who have said civilian hospitals found strange metal implants in such places as the mastoid area of their loved ones.

We really don't know what to think about this or the UFO issues. We just want to know what this thing is and if anyone out there has any information on these implants. At this time we have no idea if it should be included in any surgical removal plan or not. He is old and physically frail now but his mind is clear as a bell, and of course we are wondering if that thing showed up in the films years ago and nobody said anything. I'd like to pull all those records. All of the other metallic items noted on the films such as clamps and wires from heart surgery were correctly and readily identified. Not that thing in his cheek. Please contact me if you have any info. I'd appreciate it very much. Thank you." G

Here is an interesting email I received from an experiencer in the UK in January 2009:

"On January 22nd I had a major operation. They opened a 13 centimetre section of my spinal cord and removed a tumour. The doctors say they have never, in thousands of operations, ever seen a tumour like it.

It looks like a salamander and has clearly defined eyes and a tail. I took a picture of it with my cell phone camera.

It may be what was responsible for the weird visions I had of the nature of the universe. Since it was on my spinal cord it was directly attached to my brain.

As I said before, it has what appears to be eyes and a mouth and the doctors reported some hard matter (spine?) in the tail of the creature. It was 8.3 cm long.

I have asked the doctors for hi rez pictures. It has been sent to a lab for testing but results are not expected for 10 days. However, one of the doctors told me the tail seemed to have a bony structure in it. That is not something you would expect to find in a tumour made of nerve cells. Also, you can see what look like eyes. This really is bizarre.

By the way, I feel just fine except for the fact they sawed open my back-bone." J

-----

The next three inquiries were sent by abduction / alien encounter experiencers:

"Lon, I am writing to tell you of what my wife has gone through. She had a tumor between her shoulder blades that she could feel moving under her skin. When the tumor was removed it weighed 30 pounds and had tentacles and was moving on its own. The doctor said it was a lypoma tumor. The only other thing that she was told is that they shipped it to the Mayo Clinic. My wife has had abduction experiences in her past. I am almost 100% certain that the so called tumor that she had was a direct result of those experiences. Thank you very much for the informative post as it has showed the both of us that she is not alone.

Sincerely, EF"

"Hi, there. I wanted to write and share one of my experiences and perhaps see if anyone knew of anything like it.

I've had so many similar experiences it's difficult to relate them. Especially since, many times, I just get "weirded out" and tired of trying to figure it out, or embarrassed by speaking about something that's happened that no one understands and so I deliberately force myself not to think about it. So here goes!

I had an experience many years ago in broad daylight with my then sister-in-law and many neighbors where we all watched an extremely large UFO for over an hour as it passed over from north to south, from the mountains north of San Bernardino, CA, over Riverside, and continued south. We were sitting on my apartment balcony waiting for our husbands to come home from work one summer day and noticed a strange looking dark cloud in the distance. The sky was clear except for this one huge, dark cloud. We watched as it moved fairly quickly from far to near and tried to figure out why it was there. The appearance, sound, altitude, speed, and direction of movement were all anomalous. It was black as a thundercloud and flashed ocassionally but as it got closer, it was clearly lit from within with a strange pulsing yellow orange light and bright flashes, like lightning but there was no thunder afterwards. It only "hummed" loudly with a very deep resonance. It looked almost identical to a huge storm cloud but at the same time not "normal". From my experience of watching aircraft and falling bodies all day in my skydiving days I would say it was pretty low in the sky, maybe 2000 feet at most. It was surrounded by vapor that roiled around the body and drifted at the edges but never dissipated like a real cloud. The appearance was like an imitation of a cloud, with the exception of the low, loud hum and didn't fit with the weather which was dry, hot, and with just the beginning of the usual evening breeze that blew in from the coast, west to east. We talked and watched the thing along with our neighbors in the complex who stopped to watch also. Some people were pulling into the parking lot from work and as they noticed us staring, they would join us and discuss it too before going about their business. We turned on the news to see if anything was being mentioned since this object was probably the size of a small block and so many were watching it. Nothing ever was reported. It was so strange but at the same time no one seemed at all troubled by it! We mentioned as we discussed it that even if we reported it, we'd never find out what it was and it would be pointless so why bother!

I sometimes think about it though and wonder what it was. Maybe someone else has seen it also or something like it. The year was between 1987 and 1989 because of where I lived, I'm thinking probably 1987. I was in Riverside, CA at the time. Because it was coming from the high desert area I just assumed it was something the military was doing but, man, it was just gigantic and why would it look like a cloud? One thing I always thought about too is the huge number of people I knew who were present at the time who became seriously ill shortly after, including myself and my sister-in-law. She developed a form of thyroid disease that I can't recall now but it caused her eyes to bulge terribly and I have Hashimoto's thyroiditis. My youngest daughter who was at home and present has thyroid disease also, while my oldest who wasn't in the area is not affected. Several children in the area developed rheumatoid arthritis or other serious illnesses, like seizure disorders, also. Weird.

Regards, LAF"

"Hello. Four years ago I experienced a horrific alien abduction that lasted 3 days. Several weeks after the incident I noticed that I had a very stiff neck when I would wake in the morning. Eventually, the pain increased to the point where it bothered me all the time. I went to my physician and had X-rays and a CAT scan where it was determined that a foreign object that was made of a metallic material was embedded in vertebrae very near my spinal cord

To make a long story short, I had surgery to remove the object. The surgery was performed at the Long Beach VA Hospital in California. I had requested that the object be preserved because I wanted to have it analyzed. I was told that the object was 'lost' after surgery but I was later told by an attending nurse that it was immediately shipped off to an Army research facility. She said that she got a look at the object which was about a half inch in length and was made of a black colored metal. She also said that the object was difficult to capture during surgery and seemed to 'move' away from the surgical instruments." P

The following is a witness report that was originally posted on the MUFON CMS. I received some follow-up information later. The abductee seems sincere and states that he contacted others before filing with MUFON. It's an intriguing account. Lon

Indiana - 12/10/2009:In December, I was working away from home on a 24 Jobsite Operation in Indiana. I resided in an apartment 20 miles from the job site in a adjacent small town. One night I went home at an odd hour for my shift, and instead of a 7 pm to 7 am shift, I worked till 3 am. I went back to my place, and was in bed an hour or so later.

The next thing I know, I woke up sometime just before the sun started rising after having an extremely intense dream. A dream that I was somehow abducted from my rented second floor apartment, and taken aboard a alien craft. Everything in my memory is very foggy but there are specifics that are quite vivid.

Unlike the abduction scenarios that I have heard of, I was brought aboard a ship (I have no idea how I got there) but felt at peace and calm. I wasn't forced into some examination, nothing was forced upon me.

Their faces are distorted in how I saw them at the time, and in my memory. Of the 4-5 aliens that might have been there in the room with me, I can only remember the face of one of them. A Reptilian type, or a race trying to disguise their appearance to me by looking Reptilian. But the one that I remember was looking intensely at me. It was big, probably 6 and a half feet tall, muscular, with a body suit over his chest that looked like metal, and like some superhero's costume. The suit outlined the strong pectorals and muscles of its abdomen. It looked very strong, as if it could pick me up and throw me a hundred yards. It was a light shade of green on the front, and the color darkened as it went to his backside. It's outfit was of a yellowish color. It was intense, no emotions on its face. But I could feel it being slightly hesitant towards the decision by the others to give me this mission. (obviously by now I have done enough research to look at photos/drawings and read up a little bit on different alien beings that are supposedly out there).

They spoke at length to me about some very important things, much of which I cannot recall. I am a pretty fervent mediator, and they asked me to do a 'standing mediation' for them, which a few seconds into it, they seemed pleased by what I could do. In the process of our discussion, I was asked to help them, fully given a choice. Apparently, I agreed to their mission and then they showed me to a stainless steel type of tub, and showed me this small yellow and blue submarine looking device. It was about an inch tall and 3 inches long, and with a push of a button a thin long spiraling wire came whirling a foot or more out of the tip of it. On the tip of the long wire was a scary looking triangular shaped barb. I was more amazed than shocked, then told to get into the tub that was full of some gelatinous mixture.

Though up to that point I had been calm, I was beginning to get rather nervous. I reluctantly got into the tub, and they put the little machine into the KY Jelly type substance and it slowly, but relentlessly, came at me. Once it was close enough to me, I tried to push it away with my hands but it just kept coming. I had a undeniable feeling that it was trying to get to my 'johnson'. Once the thing was close, I have a blackout in my memory.

The next thing that I remember is that I am out of the tub, away from it and back to being calm. They are telling me to ready myself to go back and that they will erase my memory of the incident. I was confused as to why they wouldn't want me to remember everything that I was supposed to do. They told me to look for a sign in the sky, then they gave me the idea that memories of this event should eventually come back, and even more info would possibly come back with time.

The next thing I know I am back in my apartment. I woke up slowly, I wasn’t startled or even thinking about the dream though I knew I had dreamed. I then had a cigarette, and went to the bathroom to urinate. While standing there in the bathroom light, I notice something peculiar on my 'johnson,' but thought it to be a regular old vein or something...but when I touched it, it felt hard like a thin steel cable, about a 1 mm thick. It seemed to be about 2 inches long. (I was to investigate further in the coming days and find out that it is much longer, even going under my pelvis bone) I was perplexed by it, but thought that I was not going to do anything about it at the moment, so I might as well try to sleep and deal with it later. I'd keep an eye on it as I wasn't at home and didn't want to go to any doctors round that area. I went back to bed, as I felt exhausted.

Upon falling asleep, I had a dream, a very vivid color dream. In the past I have had a good handful of vivid dreams (dreams of my wife before we met, the death of a cousin, etc)...and this dream was of that caliber in detail to me. I wont bore you with the details, but let’s just say that the government and the feds were after me, and it might have been tied to me having this mechanism looked at by a doctor or untrustworthy person. I have a wife and a family. I cannot put them in jeopardy over this.

But it doesn't end there. When I woke in a cold sweat from the dream of being tracked and chased down, I kept hearing this noise outside my apartment door. I actually heard the noise earlier when I had been up before, but was so tired then, that nothing could have stopped me from sleeping. But now, as I tried to go back to sleep, the noise was irritating. So I opened the door to my apartment to see the two large windows at the top of the stairs were totally pulled open. This is on what must have been the coldest, windiest night during the Winter. I found it very odd, but made no particular connection to anything. By now the alien dream I had prior was not even something I was thinking about...like any old dream one might have.

So here is where the last string from this life changing night gets tied. That next night at work, when I plugged my computer in and went to my Yahoo home page, there was a headline that immediately stood out at me. I clicked on it. It happened to be the Norway Spiral clip, that had just happened on Dec 10. While I watched this clip, I was suddenly frozen with shock, flushed with fear, and remembered that I was to see a 'sign in the sky'. Seeing the, at that time unexplained incident, suddenly had me remembering the odd implant in my 'johnson' and the upstairs windows that were oddly flung open in the middle of the night, along with the crazy dream/abduction I had experienced.

So there is the story of that night. There is actually much more to the story, but I'd like to at least make contact with you, before I go more into more detail.

UPDATE:

As far as what this 'thing' in my 'johnson' does, I'm still not sure though all sorts of unexplainable things have been happening. One of which is that I no longer get sick. In fact many ailments that I had previously, persistent heartburn, gastritis, even 2 bad teeth that needed crowns have disappeared. My wife has been sick twice, and even while being with her all day, I have not caught her sicknesses. The one constant, is that this implant is still there, ever present. Though in a way, I am doing my own studies of how this affects me, I would entertain the idea of having some trustworthy people do some examination of it. Nothing too crazy like trying to remove it. I fear it would be impossible to do without endangering my life.

What I can tell you, is that it wraps round the tip of my 'johnson,' and must go all the way back to my spine, because a week after first getting the implant, I suffered from horrible almost debilitating lower back pains for a month. The back pains then simply vanished, and I have yet to have any since. I recently went to a urologist to have the implant examined, but oddly enough, the implant has slowly been sinking deeper into the flesh and is now almost undetectable unless my 'johnson' happens to be in an 'excited' state. Most particularly, the day I went to the doctor, the implant was seemingly gone. The urologist couldn't feel anything, and to his knowledge what I explained to him didn't make medical sense. Yet, later that night while having intercourse with my wife, sure enough, there it was again. She doesn't seem to mind it.

NOTE: I attempted to make further contact with the abductee approximately 3 months after my initial contact. The email address had been closed. I traced a residential address associated with the email one was living at the address as of October 2010. No forwarding information was available. Lon

2006 CHICAGO O'HARE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT UFO INCIDENT (VIDEO/PHOTOS)

On Tuesday, November 07, 2006, at approximately 16:30 p.m. local time (Central), Federal authorities at O'Hare Airport received a report that approximately a dozen witnesses were observing a small, round disc-shaped object, metallic in appearance, which hovered over Gate C17 at that airport:

The National UFO Reporting Center has received the following information from a single source, who, for the time being, wishes to remain anonymous, and who prefers not to reveal for what entity he works. We have received documentation about the alleged sighting, which satisfies us as to the veracity of the report and the credentials of the party reporting the incident.

We have delayed the release of this case, principally because an investigation was begun almost immediately after our receipt of the initial report, and because we were hoping to obtain additional documentation about the sighting before it could be concealed, or destroyed.

At approximately 16:30 p.m. (Central) on Tuesday, November 07, 2006, Federal authorities at O'Hare Airport received a report that approximately a dozen witnesses were observing a small, round disc-shaped object, metallic in appearance, which hovered over Gate C17 at that airport.

The object was first spotted by an employee, working on the ramp, who was engaged in "pushing back" Flight 446, departing Chicago for Charlotte, NC. The employee reported to his supervisors that the object appeared to be almost directly above his location at Gate C17, it appeared to be perfectly round, and its size was approximately equal to a U. S. quarter, held at arm's length. The object had a metallic appearance, according to the first witness, and it appeared to him to be spinning.

The first witness apprised the flight crew of Flight 446 of the existence of the object above their aircraft, and we believe both the pilot and copilot were witnesses to the bizarre object, as well. The witness also contacted his supervisors, who also witnessed the object, which was visible for approximately 2 minutes.

At the end of that time, the object was seen to suddenly accelerate straight up at a very rapid pace, and it "shot" through the solid overcast, which was at 1,900 feet at the time. The witness added that the object appeared to leave a "hole" in the clouds, where it had streaked upwards through the overcast.

Both the Federal Aviation Administration and Transportation Security Administration were apprised of the event at the time it was occurring, and personnel in one, or more, of the towers at O'Hare may have witnessed the object, possibly with binoculars. The FAA apparently reported that the object was not visible on radar, although that fact has not been confirmed at the time of this writing.

We hope to be able to release more information about the incident at some time shortly. In the meantime, we would like to invite anyone who may have been a personal witness to the event to submit a report of their sighting, using our Online Report Form. We would be most grateful if you would indicate in your report where you were located, at the time of the sighting, and what the object looked like, from your vantage point. - NUFORC

CNN interview with O'Hare UFO witness 'Joe' (airplane mechanic) (transcript)

Source: CNN, Jan 5, 2007

Summary: CNN's Gary Tuchman talked to one of the airport workers about what he says he saw.

CNN's Gary Tuchman talked to one of the airport workers about what he says he saw.

Gary Tuchman, CNN CORRESPONDENT (voice-over): Flights come to Chicago's O'Hare Airport from all over the world. But do they come from other worlds?

(on camera) You don't believe this was possibly your imagination?

'Joe', Airplane Mechanic: It was definitely not my imagination.

Tuchman (voice-over): Joe is a mechanic for United Airlines.

While taxing a jumbo jet to the hangar, he and another mechanic...

'Joe': Looked out the window in the general direction and noticed an object up in the sky, dark gray object, sitting above the terminal complex.

Tuchman: Joe, which is not his real name, is one of several airport workers, some of whom have talked to the "Chicago Tribune", who said they saw a saucer-shaped UFO hovering just beneath the clouds at the airport.

He's the first to go on camera to talk about it since this happened several weeks ago. He wants to remain anonymous.

(on camera) But you're sure it was some kind of object that normally would not be above O'Hare Airport?

'Joe': I've been at O'Hare for quite some time. And let's just say that I've never seen an object in my time that looked like this. And I'll tell you definitely it was not an airplane as we know it.

Tuchman: But it could be an airplane as another world knows it?

'Joe': Possibly.

Tuchman (voice-over): We brought in one of Chicago's top sketch artists...

'Joe': Followed the contours of the object.

Tuchman: ... to listen to Joe and draw a picture of what he says he saw.

'Joe': More like an oval, dark gray oval.

Tuchman: Because no photos have surfaced, and Joe doesn't know of any.

(on camera): It didn't say "Goodyear" on it, did it?

'Joe': No "Goodyear," no.

That's a really good drawing.

Tuchman: That's what it looks like?

'Joe': Very much so, yes.

Tuchman (voice-over): Other witnesses told an organization called the National UFO Reporting Center that the object eventually shot straight up in the sky at a great rate of speed.

'Joe': It looked like literally someone had poked a hole in the clouds, just a round hole.

Tuchman: Joe thinks the disk is either a stealthy military project or a spacecraft from another planet. But...

'Joe': I find it very strange or very peculiar that somebody who possesses the technology to travel between star systems would sit over an airport in Chicago.

Tuchman: Hard to argue that.

A spokesperson for United Airlines says, "We are aware of what the employees said they saw, but this is not something United would investigate." Talk to the FAA, says the airline.

The TSA and the Chicago Department of Aviation also told us to talk to the FAA. So we did. And an FAA spokesperson told us, "We, too, don't have the power to investigate." The FAA adds that radar did not pick up anything out of the ordinary and the sighting might have been caused by a weather phenomenon.

(on camera) You don't believe it was a weather phenomenon?

'Joe': Not at all. Not for a minute.

Tuchman (voice-over): O'Hare has apparently been UFO free since that November afternoon, although Joe now tends to pay special attention to that same patch of airport sky.

Report about this incident from a senior aircraft mechanic

Summary: NUFORC has received a second report about this incident from a senior aircraft mechanic, who was taxiing a Boeing 777 at the time of the sighting, and who witnessed the object.

Occurred: 11/7/2006 16:30
Reported: 11/21/2006

Location: Chicago O'Hare Airport, IL
Shape: Circle
Duration:20 min

((NUFORC Note: This individual was interviewed, at length, by one of the investigators involved in the follow-up investigation. The investigators were highly impressed with the witness's credentials and with the accurate description of the event. We deem this witness to be highly credible.)

Chicago OHare UFO Report

Ok I have been hesitant about talking about this, but after hearing the report on Coast to Coast AM with Mr. Noory I can not be silent. I work for a major airline at OHare, I am a taxi mechanic. I have the job responsibilty of moving aircraft under there own power from gate to gate or the hangar complex for maintenance. We also accomplish the engine run-up testing needed. So I hope that does something for establishing a little of credibility for my report. I am still in absolute wonder and amazement at what I saw that afternoon.

Around 1630 a pilot made a comment on the radio about a circle or disc shapped object hovering over gate C-17 at the C concourse in Chicago. At frist we laughed to each other and then the same pilot said again on the radio that is was about 700feet agl (above ground level). The day was overcast with the ceiling being reported at 1600 feet if I remember correctly. I was taxing a Boeing 777 from the Intl Terminal to the Company Hanger on the North side of the Airport. As we passed the C Terminal on the Alpha taxiway we observed a dark gray hazy round object hovering over OHare Intl Airport. Is was definately over the C Terminal. It was holding very steady and appeared to be trying to stay close to the cloud cover. The radio irrupted with chatter about the object and the ATC controler that was handling ground traffic made a few smart comments about the alleged UFO siting above the C terminal.

We had to contiune moving the aircraft to the hangar. After parking I noticed the craft of no longer there but there was an almost perfect circle in the cloud layer were the craft had been. The hole disappeared a few minutes later.

For the rest of the night there were jokes made on the radio about the siting.

In the sky! A bird? A plane? A ... UFO?

by Jon Hilkevitch

It sounds like a tired joke--but a group of airline employees insist they are in earnest, and they are upset that neither their bosses nor the government will take them seriously.

A flying saucerlike object hovered low over O'Hare International Airport for several minutes before bolting through thick clouds with such intense energy that it left an eerie hole in overcast skies, said some United Airlines employees who observed the phenomenon.

Was it an alien spaceship? A weather balloon lost in the airspace over the world's second-busiest airport? A top-secret military craft? Or simply a reflection from lights that played a trick on the eyes?

Officials at United professed no knowledge of the Nov. 7 event--which was reported to the airline by as many as a dozen of its own workers--when the Tribune started asking questions recently. But the Federal Aviation Administration said its air traffic control tower at O'Hare did receive a call from a United supervisor asking if controllers had spotted a mysterious elliptical-shaped craft sitting motionless over Concourse C of the United terminal.

No controllers saw the object, and a preliminary check of radar found nothing out of the ordinary, FAA spokeswoman Elizabeth Isham Cory said.

The FAA is not conducting a further investigation, Cory said. The theory is the sighting was caused by a "weather phenomenon," she said.

The UFO report has sparked some chuckles among controllers in O'Hare tower.

"To fly 7 million light years to O'Hare and then have to turn around and go home because your gate was occupied is simply unacceptable," said O'Hare controller and union official Craig Burzych.

Some of the witnesses, interviewed by the Tribune, said they are upset that neither the government nor the airline is probing the incident.

Whatever the object was, it could have interfered with O'Hare's radar and other equipment, and even created a collision risk, they said.

The Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (the term that extraterrestrial-watchers nowadays prefer over Unidentified Flying Object) was first seen by a United ramp worker who was directing back a United plane at Gate C17, according to an account the worker provided to the National UFO Reporting Center.

The sighting occurred during daylight, about 4:30 p.m., just before sunset.

All the witnesses said the object was dark gray and well defined in the overcast skies. They said the craft, estimated by different accounts to be 6 feet to 24 feet in diameter, did not display any lights.

Some said it looked like a rotating Frisbee, while others said it did not appear to be spinning. All agreed the object made no noise and it was at a fixed position in the sky, just below the 1,900-foot cloud deck, until shooting off into the clouds.

Witnesses shaken by sighting

"I tend to be scientific by nature, and I don't understand why aliens would hover over a busy airport," said a United mechanic who was in the cockpit of a Boeing 777 that he was taxiing to a maintenance hangar when he observed the metallic-looking object above Gate C17.

"But I know that what I saw and what a lot of other people saw stood out very clearly, and it definitely was not an [Earth] aircraft," the mechanic said.

One United employee appeared emotionally shaken by the sighting and "experienced some religious issues" over it, one co-worker said.

A United manager said he ran outside his office in Concourse B after hearing the report about the sighting on an internal airline radio frequency.

"I stood outside in the gate area not knowing what to think, just trying to figure out what it was," he said. "I knew no one would make a false call like that. But if somebody was bouncing a weather balloon or something else over O'Hare, we had to stop it because it was in very close proximity to our flight operations."

Some joke, others research

The databases of various UFO-watching groups are full of accounts filed by pilots about sightings of unknown aircraft and anomalies that affected navigational equipment onboard planes.

Whether any of the UFO incidents are real or merely the result of individual perceptions, some experts say the events pose a potential safety risk to pilots and their passengers.

"There have been documented cases where safety appears to have been implicated, and more and more we are coming to the point of view that we are dealing with an intelligent phenomenon," said Richard Haines, science director at the National Aviation Reporting Center on Anomalous Phenomena, a private agency.

"We must be proactive before an aircraft goes down," said Haines, a former chief of the Space Human Factors Office at NASA's Ames Research Center.

Haines is investigating the O'Hare incident. He said he has determined that no weather balloons were launched in the vicinity of O'Hare on Nov. 7.

"It's absurd that the military would be conducting aerial test flights" near the airport, Haines said.

All the witnesses to the O'Hare event, who included at least several pilots, said they are certain based on the disc's appearance and flight characteristics that it was not an airplane, helicopter, weather balloon or any other craft known to man.

United denies UFO report

They're not sure what was hanging out for several minutes in the restricted airspace, but they are upset that no one in power has taken the matter seriously.

A United spokeswoman said there is no record of the UFO report. She said United officials do not recall discussion of any such incident.

"There's nothing in the duty manager log, which is used to report unusual incidents," said United spokeswoman Megan McCarthy. "I checked around. There's no record of anything."

The pilots of the United plane being directed back from Gate C17 also were notified by United personnel of the sighting, and one of the pilots reportedly opened a windscreen in the cockpit to get a better view of the object estimated to be hovering 1,500 feet above the ground.

The object was seen to suddenly accelerate straight up through the solid overcast skies, which the FAA reported had 1,900-foot cloud ceilings at the time.

"It was like somebody punched a hole in the sky," said one United employee.

Witnesses said they had a hard time visually tracking the object as it streaked through the dense clouds.

It left behind an open hole of clear air in the cloud layer, the witnesses said, adding that the hole disappeared within a few minutes.

The United employees interviewed by the Tribune spoke on condition of anonymity.

Some said they were interviewed by United officials and instructed to write reports and draw pictures of what they observed, and that they were advised by United officials to refrain from speaking about what they saw.

Federal agency backtracks

Like United, the FAA originally told the Tribune that it had no information on the alleged UFO sighting. But the federal agency quickly reversed its position after the newspaper filed a Freedom of Information Act request.

An internal FAA review of air-traffic communications tapes, a step toward complying with the Tribune request, turned up the call by the United supervisor to an FAA manager in the airport tower, Cory said.

Cory said the weather might have factored into what the witnesses thought they saw.

"Our theory on this is that it was a weather phenomenon," she said. "That night was a perfect atmospheric condition in terms of low [cloud] ceiling and a lot of airport lights. When the lights shine up into the clouds, sometimes you can see funny things. That's our take on it." - Chicago Tribune, January 1, 2007 (reporter: Jon Hilkevitch)

NOTE: There are many different sources available for this incident. I tried to post the most descriptive. As to what happened, I'm not sure exactly. I have talked to people who were at O'Hare during this incident. I was left with the impression that an unusual event did occur. Lon

Raleigh/Durham North Carolina Witness Reports VANISHING AIRLINER!

A reader contacted me about a commercial airliner that he witnessed 'vanish' in the Raleigh/Durham North Carolina area in August 2012.

"Hi, Lon. Regarding the missing Flight 370, I have a story that I’ve never told anyone before because quite frankly, I couldn’t believe my eyes and it left me thinking I’d gone momentarily nuts. However, I’m quite intuitive and so I’m very familiar with that odd sensation, going back some fifty years as a child. I’ve gotten so used to it, very little freaks me out anymore.

Anyway, I was working in the Raleigh/Durham North Carolina area, and I went out back of the building to take a break like I usually do around 4 PM, facing North under a partly cloudy sky. The exact date escapes me but I distinctly remember that it was either the day before or the exact date of the start of the Republican National Convention in Tampa Florida, so it was around August 27, 2012.

So, I’m looking up at the sky at an approximate 45° angle when I noticed a brownish colored airliner with two engines on both wings (I could clearly see that level of detail against a blue sky) at a normal cruising altitude, approaching from NNE to SSW. It was on a path that I was guessing could have potentially been from the New York area towards Western Florida, and I jokingly told myself (a psychic impression?) that it was on its way to the RNC. Anyway, it was approaching a smallish elongated cloud, kind of cigar-shaped and parallel to the horizon (not a chemtrail), about the width of a finger or two when held up at arms length. So, I thought it would be cool to watch it as it either flew through this small cloud or over it, which should have only taken a few seconds, and it never came out!

I mean, I scanned that area of the sky for a solid five minutes and all around that cloud, I never saw that airliner again. There was no mention of any missing plane on the news that night, so I buried what I saw - or what I really thought I’d seen - until this past week. And, I’m now intuiting that someone (or some “thing”) has done humanity a great service in both cases, by abducting an entire airliner (full of who-knows-who or what?) both times. Or..I’d rather not entertain the thought of the opposite." P

NOTE: I find it interesting that this email was sent from the Raleigh/Durham, NC area. I had received 2 previous correspondences over the years referencing anomalous activity in and around the airport in Raleigh/Durham, NC. I don't know how far this incident was from the airport. Lon

CHARLES FORT Describes An Unknown RUSSIAN BEAST

Those readers who are familiar with the anecdotes of Charles Fort will probably recognize the following account from his book 'Lo!', published in 1931. General R. G. Burton, a British officer, adventurer and author visiting late 19th century Russia, was told a story of a place "haunted by a mysterious animal":

An unknown beast was terrorizing a small district in the Orel Government, south of Moscow. The first attack was upon the evening of July 6th. Three days later, another woman was grabbed by an undescribed animal, which she beat off, until help arrived. That day, a boy, aged 10, was killed and devoured.

July 11th—a woman killed, near Trosna. "At four o'clock, on the 14th, the beast severely wounded another woman and at five o'clock, made another attack upon a peasant girl, but was beaten off by a companion, who pulled the animal off by the tail. These details are taken from the official accounts of the events."

There was a panic, and the military authorities were appealed to. 3 officers and 40 men were sent from Moscow. They organized beats that were composed of from 500 to 1,000 peasants, but all hunts were unsuccessful. On the 24th of July, four women were attacked, and one of them was killed.

Something was outwitting 3 officers and 40 men, and armies of 1,000 peasants. War was declared. Prince Sherincki, with 10 officers and 130 men, arrived from St. Petersburg. We notice that in uncanny occurrences, when there is wide publicity, or intense excitement, phenomena stop—or are stopped. War was declared upon something, but it disappeared. "According to general descriptions, the animal was long, with a blunt muzzle, and round, standing-up ears, with a long, smooth, hanging tail."

We know what to expect.

In the Field, Dec. 23, 1893, it is said that, after a study of sketches of the spoor of the animal, the naturalist Alferachi gave his opinion that the animal was a large dog. He so concluded because of the marks of protruding nails in the sketches.

But also it is said that plaster casts of the footprints showed no such marks. It is said that the nail marks had been added to the sketches, because of assertions by hunters that nail marks had been seen. Writing 30 years later (Chambers’ Journal, ser. 7, vol. 14, p. 308) General Burton tells of the animal as something that had never been identified.

This is fringing upon an enormous subject that leads away from the slaughtering of sheep to attacks, some of them mischievous, some ordinarily deadly, and some of the Jack the Ripper kind, upon human beings. Though I have hundreds of notes upon mysterious attacks upon human beings, I cannot develop an occult criminology now.

NOTE: Was this an upright beast, possibly a canid? Or simply a large cunning Eurasion Wolf, thought to be something more than what it really was? If you are interested in cryptids and other anomalous phenomena, please access the accounts written by Charles Fort. After all these years, I still go back and read his assessments. Lon

Cryptids -Thunderbird Sightings Increase Across Pennsylvania During 2024

THUNDERBIRD & CRYPTID Sighting Reports in Pennsylvania Increase During 2024 (Stan Gordon)

From: Researcher Stan Gordon

There has been a long history of encounters with huge flying creatures throughout the Keystone State. Many of the witnesses to these encounters are reluctant to report what they have seen since they realize that what they observed isn’t supposed to exist.

I have interviewed numerous people who claimed to have seen giant birds with massive wingspans. There is no doubt however, that some of these observations were misidentifications of large birds common to Pennsylvania such as the Great Blue Heron, Turkey Vultures, hawks, and eagles. Some of the reports, however, seem quite unusual.

I have been out in the field investigating reports of Thunderbirds and other cryptids since the 1960s. As with UFO/UAP reports, it is difficult to estimate the altitude and size of an object high in the sky. Some of the Thunderbird sightings that I have investigated were observed at an exceptionally low altitude or actually reported on the ground and in some cases eating roadkill. The most often estimation of the wingspan reported has been between ten to over twenty feet.

While there have been similar descriptions over the years, there appear to be several categories of these huge flying mysterious creatures. Most commonly have been observations of exceptionally large dark brown or black feathered huge birds. There have also been other reports of generally black, leathery-skinned, and featherless giant bat-like creatures. Even more unusual are some very detailed reports from witnesses that I found quite credible of what they described as encounters with flying behemoths that looked prehistoric. Some observers claimed that the flying creature they saw looked similar to a pterosaur that had a diamond-shaped configuration on the end of its tail.

While quite rare, in more recent years I have heard of an increase in reports of huge white-winged creatures reportedly being sighted. I heard a report a few years ago from another local researcher that a witness told him that she had observed an exceptionally large white flying bird that looked transparent as it passed overhead.

You think the previous reports are strange, then how about the sightings of what people have described as dragons or even winged humanoids such as the “Butler Gargoyle.” Most everyone is familiar with the famous Mothman encounters reported in West Virginia during 1966-1967. During the years since then, I uncovered information that during that same period of the late 1960s, there were reportedly similar Mothman-type encounters taking place around the Pittsburgh area.

There was a wave of huge flying creature observations reported from across the state in recent months. Many people now refer to these incidents as Thunderbird sightings.

Synopsis of 2024 Pennsylvania Thunderbird reports:

01-28-24-Derry side of the Chestnut Ridge (Westmoreland County) At about 7:30 AM, the witness looked out a window and observed a huge white bird standing on the ground next to a tree. It was several feet tall and had a wingspan of about twelve feet. There appeared to be a black elongated crest on the head. The witness also noticed that the creature had a black beak. The creature began to flap its wings and appeared to be having trouble rising from the ground. It finally rose above the trees and moved out of sight. The total observation was about thirty seconds. This area of the Chestnut Ridge in Southwestern Pennsylvania has a long history of Bigfoot, cryptids, Thunderbird, and UFO encounters.

03-12-24-Harrisburg suburb (Dauphin County) The witness was driving through the area at about 3 PM and was approaching a traffic light at an intersection. The sky was clear and blue at the time. While the driver was stopped at the red traffic light and looking up at it, an exceptionally large bird was observed. The witness estimated that the creature had a wingspan of at least twenty feet tip to tip. When first observed, the monstrous bird was estimated to be about eighty to one hundred feet overhead and gliding.

The giant bird appeared to be black in color. The windshield view was blocking some sections of the body such as the head and tail. The driver looked back at the red light and then looked again at the bird. The bird suddenly opened up its wings giving an impression of a large drape. According to the witness, “It had feathered shiny scallops on an all-black background.” Also seen was a streak of white feathers about halfway down the scallops. The witness was certain that the wingspan could cover the two sides of the road.

The driver looked back toward the traffic light that had turned green. When she looked back toward the bird it was no longer in sight. The witness did not see it fly in any direction and could only assume that it had risen straight up above the car or moved behind her car.

That witness told me that this was the strangest thing ever experienced. It was also mentioned that the big bird was like a creature out of a Jurassic Park movie. The observer was shocked by what took place.

03-21-24 (Pittsburgh suburb (Allegheny County) This witness observed a huge bird around 4:30 PM, about one hundred yards away and about fifty feet above the ground. The witness was driving at the time when he spotted an exceptionally large black bird with an estimated ten-twelve-foot wingspan. It dropped down to the height of a telephone pole and moved toward the Dashields Lock and Dam on the Ohio River. It appeared to have loose plumage along the back section of the wings. There were reportedly other witnesses involved.

04-28-24 (Washington Township (Westmoreland County near Armstrong County) The driver of a vehicle was driving on Route 66 and made a sharp turn to the right heading South. It was about 4:45 PM when he observed a huge black or dark-colored bird gliding toward the southeast that passed directly over his vehicle about one hundred feet above the ground.

The witness said the wingspan was huge and covered the width of the entire road. He estimated that the wingspan was about seventeen feet in length. He only had the creature in sight for about 5-10 seconds as it passed over the trees.

05-24-(Fayette County, PA) A witness reported seeing an exceptionally large odd-looking bird in a rural location. When it was first observed, it was gliding low over the area. The witness estimated that each wing was about ten feet long and they looked odd and skinny. The tail was featherless and had an odd, shaped appendage at the end.

05-16-24-Rural Latrobe area (Westmoreland County) This witness was returning home from work at about 2 AM and driving down Donohoe Road traveling toward the Latrobe area. He turned off that road and continued down another rural roadway. The man told me that he had an experience that he couldn’t explain. He told me that he had encountered a massive bird. He stated to me, “It was so huge, I couldn’t believe it.” As he was slowly driving early that morning his headlights focused on the underside of the body of a giant bird. When he first saw it, the winged creature appeared to be leaning forward and had just begun to flap its wings. He thought that it had just jumped off a nearby telephone pole. It was low enough then to be seen in his headlights and not that far away from his vehicle.

The witness saw the body of the creature from a sideways view. He was not able to see the head or tail. The creature's body looked quite long, and over two feet wide and was covered with dark brown or black feathers. The feathers had a fish scale-like appearance. While the feathers were generally dark, there was some white color seen around the belly area. The witness estimated that the total wingspan could have been about ten to twelve feet or more as he could not see the full wings. The witness soon lost sight of it as it flew off. He heard no sound from the creature and his window was down. The entire observation only lasted several seconds.

Most witnesses who have a UFO, Bigfoot or cryptid encounter seek no publicity. In many cases, those people who encountered such an anomaly told me that this was the first time they had ever experienced something that they could not explain. Some of those people told me they used to laugh at others who claimed to have had similar encounters. Those people aren’t laughing anymore. Over the years, some witnesses shared with me that what they experienced was a life-changing experience.

I continue to be involved with the investigation of numerous UFO/UAP and cryptid encounters that are reported yearly from across the state. While many such sightings have been explained as originating from manmade or natural sources, there remain some incidents that are not so easily explained away,

There have been periodic waves in the last few years of various anomalistic incidents.

The year 2022, will be remembered for the unprecedented increase of reports of low-level encounters with mini-UFOs- those small luminous orbs or balls of light reported close to the ground, or on the ground, and in some cases approaching within feet of witnesses.

During 2023, There were numerous daylight observations of large cylindrical wingless objects hovering at low levels in various locations. There were also reports of large triangular objects observed at low levels. Numerous Bigfoot sightings were reported from across the state, and many were observed at close range. Many of the Bigfoot encounters also occurred in daylight. Low-level orbs or balls of light were continuing to be reported.

The 2024 year has been busy with UFO/UAP incidents, as well as various cryptid cases being reported. I will be posting more details on these cases in the future. The wave of Thunderbird encounters has been fascinating. As of this writing, I have not received any additional possible Thunderbird reports.
