OTHERWORLDLY BEINGS In The Neighborhood!

The experiencer details their encounter with black-clad beings and a tall blonde female with large eyes in their backyard! There was other high strangeness occurring as well!

I received the following account:

"Hi. I was recently relaxing at home in Santa Cruz, California when I noticed some movement across the street from my kitchen window. It's a small side street with lots of large trees. It was hard to tell what I was seeing at first because they appeared to have some sort of camouflage, but they looked like black SWAT uniforms with small yellow lettering once I was able to get a better view. They were up in a tree, very well hidden by the leaves, and I was only really able to see them when they moved. It was apparent when they moved as opposed to the wind because only a small section of a branch would vibrate. I was startled and anxious because they were looking toward my house, and I first thought they had me under surveillance or something and couldn't understand what was going on.

I watched them in the tree for at least 5-10 minutes, and I was crouched low looking through a cut-out in my fence. They seemed to spot me at some point and some kind of faint beeping sound started, like an alarm on a radio or walkie-talkie. They then began trying to slowly and secretly rappel down ropes that I could see being controlled by a man high in the tree wearing a blue jacket. They dropped out of sight behind the neighbor's fence across the street. So this was all weird enough, but what happened next was absolutely mind-blowing.

I was trying to see where they went behind the fence and noticed something very tall at the back of the driveway of their next-door neighbor. Their driveway extends behind their house into the backyard. I realized I was looking at an unbelievably tall woman with very blonde, long hair. She had a sort of grey and white jumpsuit on, with a strange-looking oval back covering that went around the top of her head and all the way down to her feet. It was only solid in the back and was whitish in color with a patterned border around the edge. It didn't really look like fabric but I couldn't tell what it was. Her eyes were extremely large. She stood very still but moved slightly, and there seemed to be a shorter humanoid shape wearing the same color jumpsuit moving around rather wildly at her feet. But the shadow of the fence made it hard to see that part. The sunlight was good and bright, and the only obstruction was some sparse shadowing from tree leaves. Not really sure what I was looking at.

I looked back to where the black-wearing tree climbers had been and saw that suddenly there was now a short, skin-colored 'something' standing behind their fence. The fence is a lattice pattern so there are a good many holes you can see through. It was too short to be seen over the top of the fence, but I could see a very large face with a deeply wrinkled forehead and eyes that almost looked like they were made of some kind of glitter. They were very large, and somewhat rounder than what people usually describe as "alien eyes." I could see that it was looking right at me, so not knowing what else to do, I waved at it. It then reached a hand with very very long bony fingers through the fence lattice and waved back. It waved a couple more times, stopping in between waves. I was so stunned that I had to look away and shake my head to make sure I wasn't hallucinating. When I looked back it had stopped waving and was a little farther back from the fence. It seemed like a good entity, whatever it was. Even though I was seeing from across the street through 2 fences, I could see it quite well. Things somehow got even weirder after that.

I decided to lie down for a minute, glancing back to where the massive woman had been, but there didn't seem to be anyone there anymore. I went up into my little loft, which has several skylights under a giant live oak tree. I stared at the tree trying to process what I had just witnessed, when I noticed a couple of branches quivering like the ones the covert ops guys had been shaking. I expected to see more of those creepy agents but instead strained to see a much smaller creature climbing expertly up into the high branches. It was difficult to see it clearly because it seemed to be a dusty grey-green color, much like the tree's bark and leaves. It seemed to have textured skin, possibly scaly, and it had an angular face with teeny tiny little projections like little horns or possibly short antennae. It had a small mouth that looked full of sharp teeth. Its eyes were quite large and dark. It had a humanoid build but was short. I stared at this for many minutes, wondering what the Hell was going on. Then I caught sight of some slight movement on other branches and saw two more of the same creatures climbing easily up the tall tree. They reached a high-up branch that was big enough to lie on. The light, once they stopped moving much, was not ideal and it was hard to see them when they were sitting still. In the shade of the branches it looked like an even smaller, dark green creature was working on the gray colored ones back somehow...it looked like a massage to me. I watched until my neck was too painful to look up to continue. When I looked back a little later, the branches were empty.

This was all preceded by an unnerving experience late the night before. I got up to get water and glanced at the driveway neighbor's window. Inside I saw an unnaturally gangling figure that was bluish light grey. It was staring out of their window directly at me which caught me off guard and I let out a little shriek. I walked from the kitchen into the bathroom and looked again, seeing that its eyes followed where I was. I called my boyfriend in fear and told him what I was seeing. He was just excited while I was scared. I thought that would be the end of it when I went to bed, but the next day was even crazier! I wish I had a way to find out what was going on!

There was also a very small orb darting about the branches of the oak tree and any time it would graze a twig it would give a little shake. I've never seen a bird or bug or other flying life form move in that manner. I attest that this is all true and I described it to the best of my knowledge. I have never seen anything like this before and really would like to know what was going on, and if it is real why so many different kinds of extraterrestrials were in my neighborhood." H

BLACK-EYED GIRL & HER WEIRD FAMILY Encountered at the Local Mall

The witness was in her car at the local mall parking lot when a strange family, all dressed in black, walked through the lot. The girl looked at the witness, and then her eyes changed completely black!

I received the following account:

“Hi. Keep in mind this was before I knew anything about black-eyed children, all this stuff. Also, there is a witness to my story so I know I wasn't going freaking crazy. I wasn't hallucinating. I wasn't whatever. I wasn't on drugs or anything like that. It was just a normal day.

It was summertime. It was mid-June, I believe. It was 90 degrees. Boiling hot. And I had a day off from work, and also because I remember it was so nice to not be working and to be relaxed and to be at the mall. And it was like sunshine outside. Everything was happy. I ate sushi which I frigging love sushi. I stayed at the mall until about sunset but it wasn't like completely dark yet. Okay. It was just like that time of the day, you know, the sky's looking all beautiful. Like pinks and purples and stuff like this. So the day was finishing and we were leaving the mall. And I went to the car with my friend and most people had left at that time so there were not a lot of cars in the car park. It was just my car and in front of my car, there was like a big jeep with huge massive windows. And I sat in the car with my friend and we were trying to find a radio channel because I like to drive with my music so were trying to find some music before we started driving.

So we were sitting there chilling and trying to find music, whatever. Taking like my sweet time. And while we're taking our sweet time we see this family like come out of the mall. Now we both did this exactly, like, we just stopped what we were doing and we just started to stare at this family. There wasn't anything particularly super strange about this family like we stopped to notice them. It's just like this feeling they gave. First of all, it was the feeling. We both looked at them kinda scared. And they had a daughter who had long black hair. She was wearing all black. And another child who had black hair. It was a boy. Short black hair and just all black. They looked kind of like Emo children, let's say.

First, like the parents were kind of protecting them but they were, like, kinda, like, (makes a shooing motion with her hands) come on, let's go, let's go, let's go. We were like, what the hell is going on? Then we noticed that the parents and family were walking kind of disturbed. They just looked disturbed. I don't know how else to say it. Something just looked off with the way they were walking, the way they were acting. It just wasn't normal. Then they started to, like, approach the jeep that was in front of us. And the girl was trying to glance at me and my friend and her mom kept doing this to her (uses hands to haphazardly cover her face) like don't look. Basically, the way I can describe how they looked, is if you saw the film Coraline and the normal parents versus the other dimension parents. That's how they were.

They get into the car and then this girl, as soon as she steps in the car, she turns around like super quickly, behind, and because it's a jeep it had huge windows... like we could see clearly. She looks at us. I will never forget this. She looks straight at me - in the eyes. It was like she was burning into my soul. Her face went from normal to, gosh, like, her eyes went black and I mean black! I'm not even kidding. Black! Like they went black and like her face... It just went, you know like this... (using her hands she pulls her face down so that it looks like it is melting). Her eyes are black! Her eyes are frigging black! She had no... I mean like her eyes were covered, like all of this around here (using her fingers, she traces the outer edges of her eye sockets). It was just frigging black. Oh my god. And she let out this scream as she was looking at me. She was like (mocks a scream). She looked like she was possessed. She wouldn't stop doing it. But like her eyes were black. Her family in the car just weren't saying anything. They weren't stopping her or doing anything. They were just all sitting like robots. And the thing was we weren't thinking about paranormal stuff. We weren't talking about this kind of thing and we just manifested it or whatever. And it was during the day, okay? Okay, during sunset. But it wasn't dark, okay? It was light. And we could see everything. We could fully see her black eye sockets. It was only recently that I researched the black-eyed children and then that, like, rang a bell. So that was, like, could it have been?”

Steph never said what happened after the girl screamed but in the comment area of the video, she indicated that she drove away.

“If you're wondering, I obviously DROVE THE HECK OUT THERE AFTER THAT! AS QUICK AS POSSIBLE!!! DIDN'T LOOK BACK! And that was the last time I ever went to that mall." E

SHINY, BLACK BAT-WINGED HUMANOID Encountered Near West Brooklyn, Lee County, Illinois

A Lee County, Illinois witness contacted me about an encounter with a shiny, black bat-winged humanoid while driving home from the family cabin at Woodhaven Lake.

I recently received the following account:

"Hi, Lon. I live in Rochelle, Illinois, and my family has a place at Woodhaven Lakes, between Sublette, Illinois, and Amboy, Illinois. We were on our way home from a weekend at our place in Woodhaven on a Sunday three years ago (After talking to the witness, it was in July 2021 at approximately 4 PM).

I was in my mom's van with my wife, mom, and two dogs. We were going northbound on Brooklyn Road, which runs alongside I-39. We were just talking and all of a sudden my wife. Two dogs, and myself all see a big flying black "thing" as clear as day, fly right in front of the van. When I say the dogs saw it, I mean that their attention was instantly drawn to the sky in front of the van, like they were startled. It reminded me of when they saw an animal or someone outside my house who didn't belong. They went into "defend my family mode." They didn't bark, just in defense mode or maybe scared.

I don't know why but my mom didn't see it, she also was the one driving. My wife and I looked at each other and we both said, "Did you see that? It looked like the Mothman." At the time we hadn't heard of all the sightings in Chicago but were aware of the sightings in West Virginia and the collapsed Silver Bridge. We might have heard of some stories from Chicago too, but didn't really think anything of it.

At no time did we feel threatened. I felt like it was toying with us. Having fun you might say. Like it dove down in front of us to scare or surprise us. We looked behind the car after we saw it but we didn't see anything behind us.

We didn't hear it make any noises or see any red eyes. We just saw something very big flying at us. I have seen eagles fly many times close up and this thing made them look small!

It is one of those things that freaked us out and we talked about it a lot at first to each other but we didn't really want to tell anyone for obvious reasons of them thinking we were crazy. Once in a while, we bring it up. But a few weeks ago a Facebook friend made a post making fun of the people who witnessed the Mothman on Unsolved Mysteries.

I deliver for Yelloh (formerly Schwans) in that area and drive to and from my cabin a lot and have never seen anything like it. I always pay attention because I remember the spot where it happened.

We finally started watching the show tonight, and I am emailing you while watching it.

I just wanted to tell you our story. Feel free to email me back or call me." LL

NOTE: I called the witness this morning and had him repeat the scenario. The winged being was humanoid in appearance. No facial details were determined other than it had a head. The body was human-like, about 6 feet in length, and black with a shiny or wet appearance. The wings were bat-like and much wider than the van.

The winged being swooped down, flying toward the front of the van, then flew over as it neared. It then vanished. Only the witness, his wife, and the dogs observed it. For some unknown reason, the witness's mother, who was driving, did not see it. This is not unusual if compared to other sightings of the phenomenon. There does appear to be evidence that these beings 'allow' certain people to observe it. This has occurred in several previous reports, among other 'supernatural' characteristics associated with these creatures.

The report and witness contact information were forwarded to my investigative colleague, Tobias Wayland. Lon

BLACK-EYED GIRL: "Can I come home with you and use your bathroom?"

The witness, who did not previously believe in the paranormal, is walking to Starbucks when they encounter a black-eyed girl. They wanted to get as far away from her as possible!

A reader forwarded the following account:

"Hi, Lon. I like spooky stories and creepypasta as much as the next person, but I'll be honest, I don't believe in any of this stuff and I'm sure there's some explanation for what happened to me. I've read about events like the one I'm about to tell you, but I'm sure it's the result of kids being weird kids and people's overactive imaginations. But it happened, and embarrassingly, I'm scared out of my mind regardless of all my skepticism. I hope you guys can help me understand this.

I have a pretty odd sleep schedule sometimes, and I had been sick yesterday, so I went to bed fairly early and ended up waking around four in the morning. I was hungry but I haven't done any grocery shopping lately, so I decided to wait for Starbucks to open at 5:30. I went on Reddit for a while (the subreddit I mod is trending today!), played with my cat, got dressed and left at about quarter to six.

It was still dark out, and I checked the weather just before I left the house -- it was chilly, 9-10 C, and there was a fog warning with low visibility. To my surprise, when I walked out the front door, I was met with a breathtakingly clear pre-dawn sky. I live near the downtown of a mid-sized city, but I could see stars that I hadn't noticed since moving out of the suburbs. I really like observational astronomy, so I walked with my head up, smoking a cigarette and spotting planets. I passed by a gap in some buildings that allowed me to see closer to the horizon, and I had just noticed the Morning Star, Venus when I almost ran straight into a girl standing in front of me.

She was taller than me, about 5'4", and very slender. I would say she was between 12 and 14 years old. She was wearing a thin white turtleneck and skinny jeans. She was lit from behind by the window of a convenience store, so I couldn't see her face too well, but I could see that she had light skin and a whole lot of curly brown hair. As I stopped short a couple of inches in front of her and quickly apologized, she didn't move or look at me -- she appeared to be gazing off into the distance across the street.

If she had been older, I would have written it off as weird and continued on my way, but I get worried about kids very easily. It wasn't even 6 AM and this young girl was out alone, and not really dressed for the weather, either. I started to feel nervous -- the girl looked fine, clean, and whatnot, but her demeanor was so odd I was beginning to think she might have been attacked or run away from a party gone wrong. I opened my mouth to ask if she was okay, but before I could say anything, she spoke, still not looking at me.

"I think I'm lost." She paused for a few seconds before turning her head and looking into my eyes. "Can I come home with you and use your bathroom?" As soon as she looked at me I felt the bottom drop out of my stomach. I feel so stupid saying this, but there was something wrong with her eyes. She was still partially in shadow, so I tried to rationalize that it was a trick of the light -- but as I looked back at her I couldn't deny that there was nothing there. They were black, but it was worse than that: they looked like pits, as though her eyelids opened into a black void inside her skull.

Still, she was a child, and I still hadn't had my coffee, and stuff like this doesn't really happen, right? It's just crazy people and tale-spinners on the Internet. I swallowed my fear and tried to smile. "I'm on my way to Starbucks. They have a bathroom there, so why don't you follow me?"

It was as though she hadn't heard me. Her expression didn't change; she just kept staring at me with those empty eyes. "I need to use the bathroom," she repeated. "I'm lost and I don't have any money. Please help me." Nothing about her face looked scared or pleading. She was completely blank.

"I can buy you a drink," I offered. No reply. "Come on, why don't we go somewhere warm and I can call your parents?"

At this point, I was shaking with fear. I felt ridiculous and frustrated, and I just wanted to run home and cry -- but no way was I letting her see where I lived. She looked at me for another beat, then suddenly, as though she'd put on a mask, her face lit up with an angelic, charming smile. Her eyes, though, didn't change. "See you later!" She said lightheartedly and skipped off in the direction I'd come from.

"See you later?" Jesus, I hope not. I turned and watched her go, but before she was even a block away, she looked back at me, and I knew I had to run. I booked it to Starbucks, knowing I looked insane but not giving a damn.

The scariest part was the demonic little girl who promised she'd see me later. Jesus Christ guys, it's two and a half hours later and I'm shaking like a leaf just writing about this! It all seems so silly in the light of day, so why can't I stop being afraid?" H

SASQUATCH Eyewitness Accounts From Alberta, Canada

The following personal accounts were received from Sasquatch eyewitnesses in Alberta, Canada.

"The Indigenous People of British Columbia have many stories of the Sasquatch. Years ago, I met a couple who went camping in Northern Alberta, and about 70 yards away, they saw a tall, dark-haired figure standing up just beyond the tree line. The wife said that she and her husband just stared at this creature in shock and he stared back at them!

Then the wife said out loud but respectfully, ”We are here in peace and will not harm you.” She said I know he doesn’t understand me but I just had to say something. Suddenly the creature disappeared for a minute, then he came back out with a female and two small hairy creatures, and then they all stared at each other, then they disappeared. So the couple decided to go in their trailer and they would leave in the morning.

That evening they threw some apples in the area where they saw the hairy creatures. The next morning when they left, they checked out the area and saw several footprints but what was amazing was that the apples were gone! But they also found twigs that were laid down on the ground that appeared to have been placed there on purpose! The twigs, the couple felt, were a thank you from the hominin family. This is the most incredible story I ever heard! But I am from British Columbia and grew up respecting the legend of the Sasquatch. They seem to be super intelligent beings! The couple said they felt non-threatened." J

-----

"I grew up in rural Alberta. Where we lived houses were literally a mile apart. It was mostly farmland with lots of large wooded areas. One summer a schoolmate friend and I went camping at a state reservoir. I think we were only maybe 12 or 13 years old (before high school). This was back in the 70s so I don’t remember exactly, but what I do remember was that the campground we stayed at was very isolated around this huge reservoir. But there were Provincial rangers around so we never felt like the area was unsafe.

But the first night, about 2:00 in the morning, we heard someone walking around outside. We were both terrified because it was big, not like a raccoon or possum. We were both frozen with fear - after about 10 minutes of not hearing anything, and assuming whatever it was left, my friend got his flashlight and slowly unzipped the tent closure, as quietly as possible. When he turned on his flashlight there was what we could only describe as a Bigfoot about 30 feet away just staring at us. It slowly backed up and walked away. We never heard anything else walking around that night so it left. We were so scared and we had no car and they didn’t have cell phones back then so we had to endure the rest of the night.

When our parents picked us up the next day we were so glad to get the heck out of there. And back then, we didn’t know anything about Bigfoot, it wasn’t talked about, at least not where we were.: E

-----

"I saw a Sasquatch about 25 years ago (around 1999) when we got detoured traveling from Alberta to BC. We stopped for lunch at an overlook, looking into a deep valley. There was a very large hairy dark man or woman walking in the valley moving swiftly, but casually; it was beyond gob-smacking to see this person moving so effortlessly and quickly through the vale. He or she, we only saw this person from the back, eventually went into the tree line and disappeared from our view." M

Malaysian Youth RESCUED BY 'MERMAID' at Tanjung Aru Beach

The incident occurred in the late 1980s at Tanjung Aru Beach in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia. The witness remembered seeing a mermaid who saved his life!

"Basically, I was alone playing with the sand (building a sand castle I guess), and somehow I was ‘pulled’ by a huge wave, and drowning. While I was in the water, I saw a silhouette of a lady with long and curly hair swimming towards me in the water. She basically grabbed me with one hand and I held on to her and saw that she had a fishtail instead of legs.

Everything was so fast, I was back on the beach gasping for air. I looked around and saw my parents, they were oblivious to the fact that I almost died in the water. This occurred in the late 1980s at Tanjung Aru Beach in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia. I'm not aware if she hurt me or not but I assumed she saved me I don't remember feeling anything but relief. She probably saw/stalked me even before I was swept away by the waves.

I don't really remember the mermaid's face, all I can remember was she had long bright wavy hair, a fishtail for legs, and her upper body was definitely human-like, bare-chested and she was super fast. I don't know if she was evil, all I know is she saved me and if it weren't for her I would be dead. I like to think of her as my sea mom wherever she is. I hope she's doing fine." N

(VIDEO) ANOMALOUS WINGED BEING: Florence County, Wisconsin

A MUFON Field Investigator contacted me about a case that he worked on in March 2022 that occurred in Florence County, Wisconsin. The 'object', after examination of the video, is yet undetermined.

The object does indeed look to be natural, but some interesting aspects can't be ignored. The object does appear to be of considerable size. As well, the object seems to glitch 'in and out' of the video. This may be a result of the video quality, but it is intriguing.

So, what are we looking at? Could this be a Sandhill Crane, a species of bird known to inhabit the area during certain times of the year? Could it be an anomalous winged being?

I recently received the following email:

"Good Day, Sir.

I saw you on 'Fade to Black' with Jimmy Church.

My name is Steve Reigstad. I am a Wisconsin MUFON Field Investigator, and had an interesting case (to me anyway), of the sighting of a winged ‘Something’, seen in Florence County, WI, on March 7, 2022. It was initially described by the witness as a “boomerang” but I believe it to be biological. There is a video also, but as usual, it isn’t as clear, or as close as we would like. In zooming screenshots, which aren’t that good either, I could see what I believed to be large wings.

If you are interested in seeing the details of my investigation and the video that was sent to me, let me know and I’ll put it together for you. Honestly, I wasn’t comfortable with calling it an IFO - (Large Bird), especially in the area in which it was seen, but you are aware of MUFON Rules.

I did comment and pushed my thoughts a bit in my ‘Investigator’s Summary and Conclusions’, without any backlash, which I actually expected at the time.

I know you are a busy man with several projects going on, so I wanted to ask you about it first, to see if you would want this information before I took the time to put it all together for you.

Thank You For Your Time.

No Response Needed. Steve"

Theprimary object was described by the witness as boomerang-shaped, but alsoindicated 'Wings'. On 1st look, it doespresent as a boomerang shape, with bent/distorted wing tips. Upon closer inspection, and zoom up to 1233x,I am confident that the object was in fact biological and possibly a very largebird. I believe the estimated speed anddirectional changes, reported by the witness, were exacerbated by the relativemovement of the vehicle and the curves in the roadway.

Mynotes regarding the video submitted by the witness: (cont.)

WhiteOrb- Believed to be lens flare or reflection off the windshield. It also was notseen by the witness at the time she recorded the video.

Inthe video, in addition to the primary winged object, at 40secs a white orbappears in the left side of the frame, moves to the center at 45secs, and leavesthe field of view to the left at 51secs. I asked the witness to Please reviewthe video, and asked, "Did you see the white orb outside of the vehicle,or do you believe it was a lens flare or windshield reflection from within thevehicle?" She responded: "I did observe the white orb in the video,but not at the time, so I couldn't say whether it was a lens flare or an actualorb."

Thefollowing is a selection of my Investigator’s Summary and Conclusions:

(Witnessname redacted)

1.On the original report, the witness stated the date/time of the event as'Approximate' and "April 22nd, 2022 at 1pm".

When I asked if she was confident in thatbeing the date, she stated "I just checked my original video and it wasMarch 7, 2022." I will work on the caseusing that date and time.

2. She stated in the original report that theevent occurred on HWY 8. When asked ifshe could provide the exact location of the event, she stated:

"I was on County Cheading West at the intersection of County N, heading towards 101 Fence."

3. She reported originally that there were 2witnesses to the event. When asked ifthe second witness was in agreement with her assessment, she stated:

"My passenger didnot observe the object at the time until I showed him the video, I am the onlyone who observed it at the time."

Ialso thought the witness ended the Email interview with an interesting note:"I am just glad that you and MUFON are going to investigate my video. Iget goosebumps every time I watch it.

It'slike the object was watching me and listening to me sing because as soon as thesong ended it was gone. I've never seen anything that can move the way it hador at the speed it did.”

December26th Research Done:

Ibelieve the object to be biological, possibly a very large bird.

Someexamples of large birds that can be found in Wisconsin include the Sandhill Crane,which has a wingspan of six to seven feet, and the Bald Eagle, which has awingspan of up to 90 inches.

Also,it would be very remiss of me if I didn't mention the cryptid Thunderbird.Thunderbirds have been described as massive avian raptors by the Menomineetribe. The birds were the enemies of the great horned snakes and would preventthe snakes from overrunning the earth and devouring mankind, according toMenominee folklore.

TheMenominee Reservation is but 90 miles South of the sighting.

CaseDisposition: IFO Natural Phenomena - I believe theobject to be biological, possibly a very large bird.

Have You Seen The 'SILVERMAN?' Tall Yellow-Eyed Humanoid Reported by Experiencers

A tall, yellow-eyed, smooth-skinned silver-colored humanoid was reported by at least two experiencers. Was this an illusion, or was this an alien being? What do you think?

I received the following account:

“Hello. I woke up extremely early one day, around 6 am. I rose my head up from the pillow and walking by my open bedroom door I saw what I now call the 'Silverman.' He was tall, at least 6 feet, with long arms, no discernible body features, yellow eyes, and was entirely silver. When I say no discernible features I mean he had no joints, no facial features, no creases, no wrinkles, entirely smooth. His head was connected by a neck that widened out slightly like a peanut. He didn’t have a chin. No overhanging hinges or body parts. No hair.

As he walked by he was slouched heavily. Despite how tall and heavy he looked to me he only made soft footsteps. As he walked past and left my vision I heard his footsteps continue for only a few more steps before I never heard him again. I basically forgot about this in a few days and chalked it up to being tired.

Today my friend told me about a creepy thing that happened to him and he reminded me of the Silverman. We both tried figuring out if anyone else had seen a Silverman. There was one story from Great Britain.

An engineer was coming home one day from work when he saw a tall silver humanoid walking down a hill. He said it was slouching so greatly and walking so fast that a human would just fall over. When it got to the street where the engineer then slammed his brakes, they stared at each other. The silver humanoid had yellow eyes. After a while, the humanoid shot an “energy beam” from its eyes and paralyzed the engineer in his car. He said he lost all sense of time after that. When he returned to reality his fingers were burnt and the silver humanoid broke the gaze they held. The being then walked to a fence and melted through the other side. The engineer sped home and realized it was after midnight. When his wife asked what happened he said he saw the 'Silverman.'

I have no clue if we saw the same Silverman, but one thing is clear. Something about him is masculine. I really want to know if anyone else has seen the Silverman.” E
