Summary: The witness had arrived home at a later time than she was supposed to, she felt unclean, and her eyes burned. She could remember fragments of a strange experience. Under hypnosis she recalled seeing three large bright lights approach her vehicle. Against her will she stopped the car. A humanoid with a large head and white suit came to her door and she followed him to a landed craft with a red bubble on top. She was then pushed and rolled into a room by three humanoids. Inside she felt weak and paralyzed while a red light shone on her. She next remembered being led back to the car by the three beings.

Summary: A couple, their young daughter and a friend were traveling by car in an isolated area when they noticed a shimmering green light hovering above a nearby field. The driver decided to drive towards the light, which in turn moved quickly towards another location. After following the light for a while the driver exited the car and decided to walk towards it in order to obtain a better look. As he neared the green light it disappeared and several bright yellow lights became visible on a hovering semi-circular object. As the witness stood watching, while his wife yelled at him to return, a very tall man like figure appeared standing next to the object. The figure made a sudden move and both the light and the figure vanished in a split second.

Summary: Enrique Castillo was again summoned to an isolated location and met his alien friend named “Cyril.” There they board a craft that took them to an alien submarine base located deep down in the Marianas Trench in the North Pacific Ocean. Castillo reported being taken via a subterranean passage, illuminated by a strange light, which was let into the floor, covered in transparent tiles, giving the impression they were in full sunlight. Arriving at one of the bends they were confronted by a magnificent view and a fascinating spectacle. They had come out into a sort of artificial crater about 200 meters in circumference, set in the rounded top of the Andes mountains. Immediately they were guided towards a craft, which approached with a slight oscillation and landed some 20 meters from the group; tripod landing legs having appeared from the underside. Cyril beckoned the group to follow him. Steps came out from the side of the craft and a man-like figure wearing a loose fitting mustard colored outfit greeted them. Inside the object another crewmember offered the group seats in a semicircular area, giving them a clear view of everything through a glass like screen in the dome. Soon the craft took off slowly, almost vertically. They could hear no sound nor was there any sensation of movements. Very soon the great mass of the Andes faded into the distance. 10 minutes later Cyril informed the group they were already over the Pacific Ocean, coming towards an area known as the Marianas Trench. Deep down they came upon a huge dome on the ocean floor and they entered it. They landed and the ship’s door opened and they were instructed to go down slowly one by one. A strange scene; strange trees and vegetation, walkways, lounges with glass walls, structures in what seemed like granite and metal and other unknown plants met them. They were guided into a building and entered a large room or hall in which there were easy chairs. A viewing panel opened in the wall. An opening was revealed on another side of the glass wall, and a man appeared, seated. He was described as young with an abundant head of almost yellow hair, reaching down to his shoulders. He was wearing a light blue, very simple overall. He had some insignia on the chest. Castillo was told that this man was the head of the base. He addressed the group, telepathically. “You’ve been brought here because your planet is threatened by dark forces, and at the same time by a possible cataclysm having great repercussions preceded by various calamities.” After about two hours he was returned back to the location where he was originally picked up.

7:35 p.m., John Goode and his wife Margy were driving in their car on the Baltimore Beltway near Route 83 when they saw four bright white lights to the west of Route 83. The lights were traveling in a glide-like motion that Mr. Goode described as “like a gliding ladder.” In his many travels with the Air Force, Goode had never seen anything of this nature before. Mr. Goode pulled his car off the highway and rolled down the windows for a clear view of the lights. The lights were moving towards them and when the lights were viewed from the front a triangular formation was seen. During the approximate five minutes that the lights were in view they heard no sound and they were able to compare them with passing aircraft. The lights were larger and brighter than the stars and were moving more slowly that the an aircraft. (Reference: UFO INVESTIGATOR, February 1975, pages 1-2)

7:45 p.m. At Finksburg, about 20 miles west of Baltimore, Mr. Kenneth C. Ryan, an electrical engineer and a private pilot, went to his back door to let the dog in. He immediately noticed four very bright lights about 10 degrees above the horizon in the southwest sky. Ryan notice that the lights were moving. As the lights came closer Ryan saw that each of the four lights were really three lights, and that there were a total of twelve. He was now aware that the lights were on a path that would bring them almost directly over his home. When the lights got closer he decided to get his binoculars (7X35) and see if he could observe an outline or shape around the light sources. Looking through the binoculars all Ryan could see were the lights and no supporting framework. The lights passed almost directly overhead in perfect formation and no sound was heard. Ryan observed the lights for approximately 5 minutes before they passed out of view in the northwest.

Summary: June Putnam was sitting alone reading in her living room, her drapes drawn, feeling snug and secure amid the reds and greens of Christmas décor. Her husband Ray had retired early, as he has been accustomed to do for the past year. Suddenly the sound of high-pitched choral voices, like a chant, broke the deep silence. June dropped her book, listened intently, Carolers, she thought. But she realized that it could not be, besides there was something different about the chant: it was too shrill, too monotonous, and almost mechanical. June was tempted to draw back the drapes, but something urged her not to get near the window. Suddenly she felt a chill—the chill of panic. Her husband by now had awakened and had come down to find out what the ruckus was, in that instant the chanting stopped. Without further ado, her husband grabbed the phone and called the police. The police responded quickly, checked the house and the entire yard, and found nothing. A check with the neighbors confirmed that they had not heard anything. Early in the morning June investigated outside the window that faced the front lawn. Aghast, she instantly found a half-circle depression in the turf about six feet away from the window. The arc, about 25 ft long, ended at the outer branches of a large oak tree that stood about six feet from the driveway. Something moderately heavy had pressed down the wintered grass evenly about two inches deep from end to end of the arc.

Summary: An object descended over the witness home and apparently hit the wall accidentally. It left but soon returned paralyzing the witness with a beam of light. Several three-foot tall dark haired and dark skin humanoids wearing what appeared to be masks emerged and dragged the witness inside the object. He was interrogated about different aspects of life on earth and taken on a three-hour trip to their planet. The aliens were apparently not satisfied with his answers and one of them punched him. He was finally brought back home. The witness was apparently abducted eleven more times. One of those times he took a dog, a cat and a parrot to his abductors apparently for dissection experiments. While inside the object he met their leader, an entity that called himself, “Cloris” that told the witness they were from the planet “Protu.” The humanoids apparently communicated via telepathy.

6:50 p.m. A domed disc with three landing gear legs, 15 meters long with portholes, took off from a landing on a farm. It left behind ground imprint marks and an odor like petroleum. There were three adult witnesses named LeClere, Vildier, and Richard; and the event lasted 20 minutes. The three large landing pod imprints formed an irregularly spaced triangle 1m x 1.6m x 2.5m.

George O’Barski, 72, was driving home through North Hudson Park late at night when he noticed heavy static on his car radio, which went out altogether. He heard a loud noise above, and glancing over his shoulder, saw a round flat object coming from behind the car. It came to a stop about 100 ft ahead, 10 ft above the ground; about 30 ft wide, it was flat on the bottom & slightly domed on top, it was surrounded by a row of brightly glowing rectangular windows. An opening appeared in the near side out of which a ladder extended; as the witness drove closer, 8 to 11 small figures descended this ladder. 3-1/2 ft tall, they wore dark snow suit-like uniforms with helmets, and each one had a small bag & a little spade. They began digging up soil samples, and then reentered the craft, which immediately moved with a droning noise. The episode, frightening to O’Barski, lasted less than 3 minutes. The next day he returned to the park, & found numerous little holes at the site. A door attendant in a nearby apartment house also observed the lights of the UFO; at the same time, the plate glass window of the apartment house lobby somehow was cracked, & a large tree in the park opposite the building was split in two.

Summary: Charles Silva again met the short dark haired woman that called herself Rama and was taken to a clearing. Ahead he could see a rainbow colored shimmering light just above the ground, he was told that it was electro magnetic field that was hiding a landed craft. As they crossed the field a landed metallic football shaped object came into view. It rested on metallic legs. A ramp descended to the ground from a triangular shaped door. A humanoid carrying two pairs of clog like shoes came out to meet them. He was instructed to remove his shoes. The humanoid was described as thin about 4 ft to 5 ft tall with a large head and long face. He had a long nose with wide-open nostrils, a small mouth, and huge almond shaped eyes. They wore one-piece suits of a shining gray color. Silva had a creepy feeling even though they were very peaceful in demeanor. As soon as he took several steps into the craft he came face to face with their crew leader, similar in appearance to the others, without any eyelashes, his eyes did not appear to blink. The leader got up from a triangular chair and greeted Rama and communicated with Silva via telepathy. At first Silva could only hear muffled sounds but then everything became clear and he was able to understand what was said. The witness was given a tour of the object by the creature then apparently taken to a ride down to the South Pole. Later the object plunged into the water and into an underwater complex apparently in Lake Titicaca. He was also told that they had bases in Mars and Venus. They also told the witness that they originated from the Tauri constellation located somewhere near the Pleiades.

Summary: Angelica Barrigon Varela and co-worker Remedios Diez were on their way to work at a local factory along the wall that divided the railroad tracks and the street when they heard a loud buzzing sound coming from the area of the tracks. Looking in that direction they beheld a bizarre creature floating and balancing itself above the railroad tracks. It appeared to be wearing a monk-like smock or coat, dark green in color that emitted intermediate flashes of light under the light rain. The humanoid itself was dwarf-like with white pale features and stared at the witnesses fixedly. The face was oval shaped and the eyes were like two deep black holes. It appeared to lack any legs below the knees as the smock hung in mid-air. It possessed a head covering that was square in shape and apparently to large for the head itself, it was almost rectangular in shape. It maintained its short arms tucked within the smock as if hiding its hands. The witnesses were surprised that the local guard dogs were completely silent and had not noticed anything. The strange being stared at the witnesses with a peculiar look on its face almost as if surprised. Both women stood terrified until a sudden rush of wind snapped them into action, both then ran away from the area. At a few hundred meters away they looked back and the humanoid had vanished.

Summary: Awakened by a brilliant red light shining in her bedroom window, Marjorie Nighbert scurried to the window thinking one of her neighbor’s houses was on fire. It wasn’t a fire, but a large red blinking ball of light, larger than a “washtub”, moving slowly from the north in a southeasterly direction. She described the object as tadpole in shape, with lights blinking off and on in a constant pattern. She could detect no sound. She said the object was evidently low in the sky as it was obstructed from her view periodically by trees. It moved in the direction of the high school, made a U turn and came back toward her home. It then veered off in an easterly direction and disappeared from her view.

Summary: Malcolm Handley had just come from work and was talking to his wife when he saw to his left, out of the corner of his eye, a figure standing about 8 feet away. When he turned and looked directly at the spot, the figure vanished; he turned to his wife, who suggested he looked again, and the figure’s head began to move from side to side, as if to say “no.” Again when he looked, there was no figure there. His wife saw nothing. According to the observer’s account, the figure appeared to be a male, dressed in a long black robe and, in his last side view of it, the figure appeared to be holding up his right arm. “His face was not clear but what did stand out was what appeared to be white bushy eyebrows and a fairly substantial growth of white hair, which seemed to be all blown to one side.” The whole experience lasted four minutes after which the witness experimented with Geiger counters and dowsing rods.

Engineer Juan Osorio was working in an area of a local lagoon when a huge lighted disc shaped craft suddenly descended over him. He was somehow hoisted onboard the object in a “platform” made out of light. Inside the brilliantly lit object he was confronted by several tall “beautiful” human like beings, wearing shiny silvery clothing and boots. The group included men and women. He felt peace and tranquility while he was conducted to another room. There he was bathed in a soothing red light that appeared to purify him. Later he was asked to remove his clothing and was told to put on a uniform similar to theirs, and then he was taken yet into another room and there a luminous orange colored rectangle enveloped him. A blue-violet haze encased his head apparently going through some time therapeutic process.
