Location. Crawfordsville, Indiana
Time: 2:00am
Summary: As reported in the Brooklyn Eagle newspaper on September 10, 1891, two icemen were working outside in Crawfordsville at about 2:00 am five nights previously when a bizarre object sailed overhead. The icemen described the UFO as a ‘seemingly headless monster’, although there is no reason to believe that it was an animal of any kind. It was about 20ft long, and 8ft wide, moving in the sky toward the two men, and ‘seemingly propelled by fin-like attachments.’ The men moved, and the UFO flew off. The noise awoke Methodist pastor G.W. Swittze, who saw it circling in the sky. The story is as follows; September 5, 1891, at around 2 o’clock in the morning, two men were hitching up a wagon when they sighted a “horrible apparition”. Jerome Clark continues One hundred feet in the air, twenty feet long and eight feet wide, the headless, oblong thing – apparently some bizarre variety of living creature – propelled itself with several pairs of fins and circled a nearby house. They were not, however, the only witnesses. A Methodist pastor, the Rev. G. W. Switzer, and his wife also observed the phenomenon. Clark notes that this creature hadn’t tired of harassing Crawfordsville quite yet. Continuing Clark relates: The creature was back the following evening, and this time hundreds of Crawfordsville citizens saw its violently flapping fins and flaming red “eye”. The creature “squirmed as if in agony” and made a “wheezing, plaintive sound” as it hovered at 300 feet. At one point it swooped over a band of onlookers, who swore they felt its “hot breath”.
