The Mystery Of The Loveland Frog-Man
In Loveland, Ohio in 1972 two policeman reported seeing a 4ft tall frog-like creature walking on two legs. Over the last few decades several other sightings of the Loveland Frog-Man have been reported.
The Loveland Frog-Man is described as a 4ft reptile that looks like a giant frog. It has been described as weighing about 60 pounds, having leathery green skin, and the face of a frog or reptile.
In 1955 a man reported seeing three creatures that seemed to be half frog and half man. He ran to get the attention of law enforcement and when they returned there was no sign of the creatures but a strange lingering smell of almonds and alfalfa.
The most famous sighting of the Loveland Frog-Man occurred in 1972. Policeman Ray Shockey was on the job on March 3rd when he was driving towards Loveland, Ohio. Suddenly a creature appeared on the side of the road which Shockey assumed was just a dog.
As he got closer Shockey realised it wasn’t a dog but a giant frog-like creature. As Shockey stared at the creature in shock it stood up on two legs and looked right at him with Shockey’s headlights reflecting in it’s eyes.
The creature then took off, leaping over the guardrail and down a bank into the Little Miami River.
Shockey drove on to the police station in Loveland and told his story to his colleague Mark Matthews. Matthews didn’t believe Shockey’s story but could tell that had definitely seen something out of the ordinary from his behavior.
The two police officers returned to the place where Shockey had seen the creature and found large scrape marks leaving down the hill into the river.
Two weeks later Mark Matthew’s had his own encounter with the Loveland Frog-Man. He was driving near Loveland when he saw a large creature lying on the side of the road. Assuming it was roadkill, he got out of the car to clear it from the road.
To his surprise as he got closer he realised it was a giant frog-like creature and it was still alive. Matthew’s knew no one would believe him so he shot at the creature to try and get a body to prove what he had seen.
This is where Matthews’ accounts over the years have differed. In the 70’s Matthews told reporters that he shot at the creature and missed.
When interviewed again in 2016 Matthews claimed to have killed the creature and taken the body to Shockey to prove to him it was just an Iguana that was missing a tail.
It is unclear which version of the story is the truth.
Although Mathews’ theory that the creature was just a large Iguana with no tail seems plausible however the fact that he didn’t come to this conclusion until 40 years after the event is a bit suspect.
In the years following there have been several more sightings reported of the Loveland Frog-Man though some have been proven as hoaxes.
The Loveland Frog-Man has become a beloved creature in Ohio and has even had a musical written about it.
While it's possible this strange creature could have been a large lizard that was diseased, which caused the strange appearance and behavior, it's also possible The Loveland Frog-Man could also be a rare and mysterious reptile that we have yet to discover.

The Alien Child Captured By The Russian Army
On July 14, 1983, east of the Aray Sea, in the Russian village of Sosnovka, the inhabitants saw a kind of spacecraft fall from the sky.
The police were the first to appear in the area, but unable to put out the fire, they called the army and as night fell a helicopter illuminated the remains of a metal object.
Kremlin agents later intervened, as the incident took place near the border with China and they thought it was a spy object.
What they found there was a five-foot-tall metallic ovoid capsule with a small opening in the back.
When the military managed to open it, they were surprised to find a child of about one year of age, who measured 66 centimeters and at first glance looked totally human.
The baby is immediately taken to the Frunze Research Institute and a hospital has been set up there to examine the baby.
The colonel in charge did not allow anyone to touch the child until the experts arrived, commenting that for some reason the child had been expelled from some kind of spacecraft in danger and therefore had reached Earth.
Medical examinations
When the doctors arrived, they examined him and realized that he was not entirely human as he did not have a navel and a strange membrane joined his toes and hands. One of the doctors said that the child must have belonged to an aquatic species, and was of alien origin.
His eyes had a purple hue and when he was exposed to X-rays, specialists saw that the organs were very similar to those of humans. The only strange thing was his heart, which was much larger than normal.
Doctors noted that his brain activity was higher than that of a human, which led them to suspect that the child had telepathic abilities.
For three months the little one was visited daily by an Anthropologist, a Biochemist, a Physicist and a Psychologist, who tried to provoke some kind of stimulation, but without success.
The child, who was named Kosmic, ingested fluids in small quantities, sometimes spending days without eating, until he began to have severe breathing difficulties. Unfortunately, within 24 hours the baby was struck with an infection and eventually died.

Mel's Hole
In the late 1990's a story emerged of a bottomless pit near Ellensburg, Washington. In February 1997 a man named as Mel Waters called up the radio show “Coast to Coast with Art Bell,” and recounted a fascinating story about a mysterious hole on his rural property.
Waters claimed the hole had many paranormal properties:
- Locals dumped rubbish in it for over 150 years but it never got close to filling up.
- A man dumped his dead dog in the hole only to find it again alive.
- Water's claimed to have lowered a weighted fishing line down the hole, going through several rolls of heavy duty fishing line to a length of more than 80,000 feet without it reaching the bottom of the hole.
- a black beam had been seen emanating from the hole by neighbors of Waters.
- others claimed when portable radios were brought near to the hole they began to play old music from a bygone era.
- metal kept near the opening of the hole would change into different types of metal or other substances.
Several weeks after discussing the mysterious hole on the radio show Waters called back in claiming that Federal government agents had come to his property and seized the land with no explanation. Waters probed the agents for information asking whether the hole was a dangerous threat or important to national security or both. The only information the government would give is that it was the old site of a downed aircraft and civilians needed to stay clear of the area.
Waters claimed federal agents forced him to lease the land to the government and that these payments gave him the ability to move to Australia.
Waters went silent for a few years eventually calling the show back from a location that was verified to be in Australia to give Art Bell and listeners an update on his situation.
Several people other then Mel report having seen the mysterious hole but never publicly release its exact location. All they would say is it was nine to 10 miles southwest of Ellensburg on the Manastash Ridge.
Several people other then Mel report having seen the mysterious hole but never publicly release its exact location. All they would say is it was nine to 10 miles southwest of Ellensburg on the Manastash Ridge.
An intertribal medicine man named Red Elk from the Kittitas Valley, claims that back in 1961 his father took him to a hole near Ellensburg to dump some rubbish and claimed that it was bottomless.
Skeptics claim that Mel's hole is just an urban legend based on a real life mineshaft on private property northwest of Ellensburg fenced with barbed wire and not too far from some Washington state owned land.

Local news reporters investigated public records and could find no evidence of a Mel Waters owning property in Kittitas County.
Mel's claim that the hole could be 80,000 feet or deeper seems unlikely given the deepest hole ever drilled into the earth is in Russia at a depth of only 12,672 feet.
Experts claim that it is not physically possible for a hole to be that deep as it would collapse into itself under the intense pressure and heat.
Others suggest that maybe Mel is telling the truth but perhaps his fishing line reached an underground river and was carried down stream giving the appearance of still dropping downwards but actually being carried along horizontally.
It is impossible to prove that the hole is not some paranormal anomaly potentially connected to aliens or some other misunderstood force and until the actual hole can be found and studied by scientists we may never know exactly what the hole's true nature is.

Is Spontaneous Human Combustion Real?
For several centuries, people have debated whether human beings can spontaneously combust, or burst into flames without being ignited by an external source.
Though the first known accounts of spontaneous human combustion (SHC) date all the way back to 1641, the phenomenon gained wider exposure in the 19th century after popular author Charles Dickens used it to kill off one of the characters in his novel “Bleak House.” When critics accused Dickens of legitimizing something that didn’t exist, he pointed to research showing 30 historical cases.
More recently, cases of SHC have been suspected when police and fire department officials have found burned corpses with unscathed furniture around them. For instance, an Irish coroner ruled that spontaneous combustion caused the 2010 death of 76-year-old Michael Faherty, whose badly burned body was discovered near a fireplace in a room with virtually no fire damage.
Because the human body is composed mostly of water and its only highly flammable properties are fat tissue and methane gas, the possibility of SHC being an actual phenomenon seems remote.
Because the human body is composed mostly of water and its only highly flammable properties are fat tissue and methane gas, the possibility of SHC being an actual phenomenon seems remote.
Many scientists dismiss the theory, arguing that an undetected flame source such as a match or cigarette is the real culprit in suspected cases. Typically, deceased victims are found close to a fire source, and evidence suggests that many of them accidentally set themselves on fire while smoking or trying to light a flame.
On the other hand, believers point to the fact that the human body has to reach a temperature of roughly 3,000 degrees in order to be reduced to ashes. Unless SHC were a genuine factor, it seems impossible that furniture would not burn as well.

Proposed causes of the supposed phenomenon include bacteria, static electricity, obesity, stress and. most consistently, excessive consumption of alcohol, but none have been substantiated by science so far.
One hypothesis comes from British biologist Brian J. Ford, who in August 2012 described his experiments with combustion in the magazine New Scientist. According to Ford, a buildup of acetone in the body (which can result from alcoholism, diabetes or a specific kind of diet) can lead to spontaneous combustion.

The Pascagoula UFO/Abduction Incident
It was Oct. 11, 1973, when Calvin Parker and Charles Hickson went fishing on the banks of the Pascagoula River in Mississippi.
At first, when Parker saw blue lights reflected on the water, he thought police had come to tell the two to leave.
“A big light came out of the clouds,” Parker recalled. “It was a blinding light. It was hard to tell with the lights so bright, but it looked like it was shaped like a football. I would say, just estimating, it was about 80-feet. It made very little sound. It was just a hissing noise.”
Parker then claimed three legless creatures floated out of the vessel toward him. He described all three as having mitten-shaped claws, neckless and gray, and one appearing to be more feminine.
The book prompted others to come forward claiming they, too, had seen a UFO that night.
Calvin Parker would later say, “It makes me feel pretty good knowing I’m not the only one who saw something.”

When one of the creatures reached out as though to put it's claws around Parker’s neck, his natural response of fear oddly disappeared. “I think they injected us with something to calm us. I was kind of numb and went along with the program.”
Parker alleged that he and Hickson were taken aboard the alien vessel and experimented on, then the two terrified fishermen found themselves back on the riverbank as though nothing had happened.

They drove to the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office and told Captain Glenn Ryder and Sheriff Fred Diamond what had happened.
“When I got in there they had me,” Hickson told the police. “There were no seats, no chain, they just moved me around. I couldn’t resist them. I just floated, felt no sensation, no pain. They kept me in that position a little while, then they’d raise me back up.”
Hickson claimed that a machine resembling a giant eye looked over his entire body. He said he was surrounded by inhuman, five-foot tall monopedal beings.
Capt. Ryder didn’t believe the two men. He stepped out of the interrogation room but left a secret recording device running in hopes of obtaining proof that their alien stories were fabricated.

But what Ryder later heard on the recording made him think twice: “Jesus Christ, God have mercy, I thought I’d been through enough of Hell on this earth and now I’ve got to go through something like this,” Hickson could be heard saying to Parker. “But they could have, you know, I guess they, well, they could have harmed us, son. They had use. They could have done anything to us.” Parker added, “I just want to cry right now. What’s so damn bad about it is nobody’s going to believe us.”
But with no physical evidence, the Calvin Parker and Charles Hickson UFO and alien abduction story still remains a mystery.

Calvin Parker stayed quiet about the incident for decades, but after Hickson’s death in 2011, he wrote a book which was published in 2018 entitled Pascagoula - The Closest Encounter: My Story.
Calvin Parker would later say, “It makes me feel pretty good knowing I’m not the only one who saw something.”
The UFO Abduction Of Whitley Strieber
Whitley Strieber has written fiction for more than 40 years, with notable titles including the horror novels The Wolfen and The Hunger. Strieber contends that his writing streak was interrupted one night in the late ’80s by an alien abduction in upstate New York.
Strieber recounted this experience in his non-fiction title Communion in 1987. The alleged incident occurred on the night of Dec. 26, 1985, as Strieber slept alone in his cabin in the woods.
Woken by a strange noise, he purportedly saw a small non-human entity approaching his bed. Suddenly, it was morning. Not only had he awoken disoriented, he felt oddly aggressive.

It was during a session of regressive hypnosis a few months later that some of the memories returned. According to Strieber, beings that he has since referred to as “visitors” entered his home and abducted him.
While seen as a work of fiction added to his catalogue of alien stories by many, Strieber never wavered from his position. In fact, his later work only doubled down on the notion that aliens were visiting him.

In his book The Key: A True Encounter, Strieber detailed another alien encounter that he claims took place in Toronto.
Asleep in his Delta Chelsea Hotel room in the middle of the night on June 6, 1998, Strieber claimed to have been visited by another mysterious stranger.
“I got up to open the door, thinking it was the room service waiter,” Strieber recalled. “It was not. It was a man I described as about five and a half feet tall, older-looking, like someone in his 70s. He wore dark-colored clothing, a turtleneck and charcoal slacks.”
Strieber claimed the visitor stood motionless by the window for nearly an hour, expounding on the dangers of creating an intelligence more evolved than its creator. Strieber said it was “the most extraordinary conversation I have ever had in my life.”
Many are skeptical of Strieber’s alien abduction claims, but one former Green Beret Commander and developer of weapons at Los Alamos, New Mexico, John B. Alexander, believes him: “For more than two decades, I have been interacting with Whitley Strieber and found him to be one of the most intelligent and thoughtful researchers in the field,” said Alexander. “There is no doubt he has had some very strange experiences, ones that even he does not claim to fully understand.”

El Muerto – The Headless Horseman of Texas
In the 1800s Texas was a wild and lawless place attracting all manner of thieves, murderers, and other ruthless outlaws. To combat these many desperadoes and fight the Indians, who were prone to attacking the white settlers, in rode the Texas Rangers, who set about in taming the wild Texas frontier.
The Rio Grande to the south had been declared the border between the United States and Mexico; however, the Mexican government refused to recognize the boundary, insisting instead, that the Nueces River was the border. This left a giant chunk of land between the two rivers which became known as “No Man’s Land” and a prime target for outlaws.
The dispute between the two countries finally forced the United States to go to war with Mexico in 1846 to make the Rio Grande the official border. However, it would take another thirty years before the Texas Rangers could rid the territory of the Mexican cattle rustlers and thieves.
The Texas Rangers, a roving posse of expert gunmen, were not men to be messed with. Following their adversaries everywhere, they lived out of the saddle and often dispensed justice brutally. Two of these men were Creed Taylor and Willian Alexander Anderson "Big Foot" Wallace, who was himself a folk hero. It was Big Foot, with Creed’s blessing, who unwittingly created El Muerto.
In 1850, a man known simply as Vidal was busy rustling cattle all over South Texas, and soon he had a high price on his head “dead or alive.” During that summer, Vidal took advantage of a Comanche raid which pulled most of the men northward to fight off the attack. In the meantime, the sparse settlements were temporarily left unguarded. Vidal, along with three of his henchmen, wasted no time in taking advantage of the situation and gathered up a considerable number of horses on the San Antonio River, heading southwest toward Mexico.
What Vidal didn’t know was that, among the stolen herd, were several prized mustangs belonging to Texas Ranger Creed Taylor, usually one of the first to defend the settlements against Indian attacks, had not, on this occasion, gone after the Comanche. Creed’s ranch lay west of San Antonio, in the thickest of bandit territory, not far from the headwaters of the Nueces River. Due to the location of the ranch, Taylor’s livestock and horses were often the targets of the many bandits.
Taylor had enough and quickly gathered fellow ranger, Big Foot Wallace, and a nearby rancher by the name of Flores. Both Wallace and Taylor were as skilled as any Comanche when tracking and the three men shortly found the trail of Vidal and his henchmen.
When the three men found the outlaw camp, they waited until night when the bandits were sleeping to attack. Catching them unaware the thieves were killed. But just killing them was not enough. Taylor and Wallace wanted to set an example that would deter future bandits.

In those days, stealing cattle and horses was a crime more serious than murder. The Rangers had tried all types of brutal justice including stringing them up in trees and left hanging, shooting them, and chopping them to pieces, leaving their bodies for animal bait. But nothing had worked to stop the outlaws.
In a dramatic example of frontier justice, Wallace beheaded Vidal then lashed him firmly into a saddle on the back of a wild mustang. Tying the outlaw's hands to the pommel and securing the torso to hold him upright. Big Foot then attached Vidal’s head and sombrero to the saddle with a long strip of rawhide. He then turned the bucking horse loose to wander the Texas hills with its terrible burden on his back.
Soon, stories began to abound about the headless rider seen usually in remote country, with its sombreroed head swinging back and forth to the rhythm of the horse’s gallop.
As time went on, more and more cowboys spotted the dark horse with its fearsome cargo, and not knowing what it was they riddled it with bullets. But the horse and its rider rode on and the legend of El Muerto, the headless one, began. Soon, the South Texas brush country became a place to avoid as El Muerto was credited with all kinds of evil and misfortune.
Finally, a posse of local ranchers captured the wild pony at a watering hole near the tiny community of Ben Bolt just south of Alice, Texas. Still strapped firmly on its back was the dried-up corpse of Vidal, now riddled by scores of bullet holes and Indian arrows. The body was buried in an unmarked grave near Ben Bolt, and the horse was free of its burden at last.
That should have been the end of El Muerto, but the legend would live on to this day. Soon after Vidal’s body was laid to rest, soldiers at Fort Inge (present-day Uvalde) began to see the headless rider. Travelers and ranchers in “No Man’s Land” also reported continuing to see the apparition.
In 1917, a couple traveling by covered wagon to San Diego, Texas camped for the night outside of town. They would report the next day that as they sat by the campfire a large gray stallion sped by with a headless man shouting “It is mine. It is all mine.”
Another sighting of the headless wonder was reported near Freer, Texas in 1969.
The legend lives on and still today, many people report seeing the headless rider galloping through the mesquite on clear and moonlit nights in South Texas.

Summaries of Some Alien-Human Encounters from Around The World
Seeing lights in the sky is perhaps one thing, however, seeing such craft with humanoid beings on board is completely another. The same can be said of closer, direct encounters with humanoid creatures presumably from another world. There are more recorded accounts of such encounters than many people might think.
The Imjarvi Incident
While skiing near the village of Imjarvi, Finland, in the late afternoon of January 7, 1970, experienced skiers Aarno Heinonen and Esko Viljo each came to a stop on a glade they would regularly use to rest. As they did so, each could hear a strange buzzing sound nearby. As they scanned the darkening sky, they focused in on a strange light moving quickly toward them. The buzzing sound became louder and louder as the light came closer.
When the object came within roughly 10 feet of the pair, it emitted a strange red-gray mist which cloaked the craft and its immediate surroundings entirely. As the two men looked on, a sudden, intensely bright beam of light shot out from underneath the craft.
As the two men recovered from the temporary blindness caused by the sudden light, Heinonen suddenly felt as if “someone pulled him backwards” and almost fell back to the ground. As his feet became steady once more, both men noticed “the creature” standing in the glow of the lit tube. In its grip was a strange black box, itself appearing to be illuminated from inside by a yellow glow.
After a few moments, the creature, which the men would describe as humanoid adult but with the frame of a child, pointed the box toward Heinonen, sending red-gray mist and a flurry of sparks in his direction. As the mists thickness grew, so did the light, until suddenly, the craft and the humanoid were gone. Heinonen, however, found that his right leg was numb and needed assistance from his friend in returning home. He would later pass black urine.
The incident is believed by many researchers to be genuine, although some of the claims made by Heinonen of interactions with “blond alien women” following the encounter were not received quite so well and ultimately damaged his credibility.
The Kinnula Encounters
Again, in Finland, on February 2, 1971, just after 8:00 PM, two women driving toward Oulu through Kinnula noticed that they were being followed by a strange light above them. The light eventually caught up to their car, which caused the driver to bring it to a halt. As she did so, the light suddenly vanished. However, where it was now stood a 3-foot tall humanoid in a brown-green suit and a tight-fitting helmet. It looked at the two women before disappearing into the woods at the side of the road. Rather than pursue it, the ladies sped toward their destination.
Three days later, in the same region, two lumberjacks would witness a similar humanoid creature. Petter Aliranta and Esko Sneck decided to pack up for the day just after 3:00 PM as the snow continued to fall and looked to get heavier. As they did so, Aliranta noticed a silver disc hovering silently over a clearing in the trees.
The object would land shortly after, and a moment later, a roughly meter-tall humanoid creature emerged from the clearing. Dressed in a one-piece suit of green and wearing a helmet with a face mask similar to that of a scuba diver, the strange being started toward the two men. Sneck turned his industrial chainsaw toward it, which forced the being to retreat back toward its craft.
According to the report, both men then gave chase, with Aliranta even managing to grab the creature’s heel, which resulted in a shot of pain entering his entire body. Seconds later, the silver disc, with the short humanoid back on board, lifted into the air, shot upward, and vanished.
The Luumaki Encounter
A third distinct humanoid sighting occurred in Finland half a decade prior to the first two entries in the summer of 1965 in the small town of Luumaki. One particular afternoon, the Kuningas family were picking blueberries in the thick woodland. Parents Matti and Maria and their two children Tapani and Teuvo were the only ones in the area. It was a little after 12:00 PM, and with the entire area to themselves, they decided to spread out so that they could pick as much fruit as possible before heading home.
As the family were doing so, Matti began to hear a strange bubbling sound coming from above. Although it took him several moments, a scan of his surroundings revealed a man-like figure positioned on a rocky slope above and to the front of him. The figure looked at Matti intently for several moments before it started out in his direction. It was slightly over three feet tall and of a particularly strong and robust build, with thick, orange skin. Matti watched the creature getting closer and closer, rooted to the spot, his legs refusing to respond to his desire to flee.
Once the strange beast-man was only yards away from him, however, it simply vanished into thin air. Matti spun around, surveying the woodland around him. The creature, though, was nowhere to be seen. The youngest Kuningas child, Teuvo, would later state to his parents when Matti was telling them of the incident that he had seen the creature approaching his father from the other side of the field. He also saw it simply disappear into nothing.
The Salzburg Abduction
According to a report in the December 1957 edition of British Columbia’s Prince George Citizen newspaper, an American soldier, while stationed in Salzburg, Austria, in the summer of 1951, was alleged to have been abducted by aliens, largely before such a phenomenon was widespread and part of human culture.
The anonymous soldier worked as a driver and had just finished for the evening. He was making his way home at a little after 11:00 PM and decided to take a shortcut through some abandoned brush. As he did so, he saw a dark humanoid shape head toward him out of nowhere. The figure pointed an unseen device at the soldier, which paralyzed him immediately. The entity then fixed a strange black patch to his torso and, with the device, managed to control the soldier’s movements. It dragged him to a waiting craft as if with an invisible rope.
The soldier would claim to have been taken to a transparent room inside the ship, which then took off into space. He described the creature as about five feet tall, pale-skinned, and completely bald.
The Imjarvi Incident
While skiing near the village of Imjarvi, Finland, in the late afternoon of January 7, 1970, experienced skiers Aarno Heinonen and Esko Viljo each came to a stop on a glade they would regularly use to rest. As they did so, each could hear a strange buzzing sound nearby. As they scanned the darkening sky, they focused in on a strange light moving quickly toward them. The buzzing sound became louder and louder as the light came closer.
When the object came within roughly 10 feet of the pair, it emitted a strange red-gray mist which cloaked the craft and its immediate surroundings entirely. As the two men looked on, a sudden, intensely bright beam of light shot out from underneath the craft.
As the two men recovered from the temporary blindness caused by the sudden light, Heinonen suddenly felt as if “someone pulled him backwards” and almost fell back to the ground. As his feet became steady once more, both men noticed “the creature” standing in the glow of the lit tube. In its grip was a strange black box, itself appearing to be illuminated from inside by a yellow glow.
After a few moments, the creature, which the men would describe as humanoid adult but with the frame of a child, pointed the box toward Heinonen, sending red-gray mist and a flurry of sparks in his direction. As the mists thickness grew, so did the light, until suddenly, the craft and the humanoid were gone. Heinonen, however, found that his right leg was numb and needed assistance from his friend in returning home. He would later pass black urine.
The incident is believed by many researchers to be genuine, although some of the claims made by Heinonen of interactions with “blond alien women” following the encounter were not received quite so well and ultimately damaged his credibility.
The Kinnula Encounters
Again, in Finland, on February 2, 1971, just after 8:00 PM, two women driving toward Oulu through Kinnula noticed that they were being followed by a strange light above them. The light eventually caught up to their car, which caused the driver to bring it to a halt. As she did so, the light suddenly vanished. However, where it was now stood a 3-foot tall humanoid in a brown-green suit and a tight-fitting helmet. It looked at the two women before disappearing into the woods at the side of the road. Rather than pursue it, the ladies sped toward their destination.
Three days later, in the same region, two lumberjacks would witness a similar humanoid creature. Petter Aliranta and Esko Sneck decided to pack up for the day just after 3:00 PM as the snow continued to fall and looked to get heavier. As they did so, Aliranta noticed a silver disc hovering silently over a clearing in the trees.
The object would land shortly after, and a moment later, a roughly meter-tall humanoid creature emerged from the clearing. Dressed in a one-piece suit of green and wearing a helmet with a face mask similar to that of a scuba diver, the strange being started toward the two men. Sneck turned his industrial chainsaw toward it, which forced the being to retreat back toward its craft.
According to the report, both men then gave chase, with Aliranta even managing to grab the creature’s heel, which resulted in a shot of pain entering his entire body. Seconds later, the silver disc, with the short humanoid back on board, lifted into the air, shot upward, and vanished.
The Luumaki Encounter
A third distinct humanoid sighting occurred in Finland half a decade prior to the first two entries in the summer of 1965 in the small town of Luumaki. One particular afternoon, the Kuningas family were picking blueberries in the thick woodland. Parents Matti and Maria and their two children Tapani and Teuvo were the only ones in the area. It was a little after 12:00 PM, and with the entire area to themselves, they decided to spread out so that they could pick as much fruit as possible before heading home.
As the family were doing so, Matti began to hear a strange bubbling sound coming from above. Although it took him several moments, a scan of his surroundings revealed a man-like figure positioned on a rocky slope above and to the front of him. The figure looked at Matti intently for several moments before it started out in his direction. It was slightly over three feet tall and of a particularly strong and robust build, with thick, orange skin. Matti watched the creature getting closer and closer, rooted to the spot, his legs refusing to respond to his desire to flee.
Once the strange beast-man was only yards away from him, however, it simply vanished into thin air. Matti spun around, surveying the woodland around him. The creature, though, was nowhere to be seen.

The soldier would claim to have been taken to a transparent room inside the ship, which then took off into space. He described the creature as about five feet tall, pale-skinned, and completely bald.
Perhaps the most unusual aspect, though, were the eyes, which the witness likened to “that of a fly” and said were “eyes within eyes.” The soldier claimed the ship landed on a “paradise-like” planet, which he said might have been Mars. He was then flown back to Earth and taken to the spot of his abduction.
According to the newspaper article, the investigator who took the soldier’s account tried several times to lead the soldier into revealing his story to be false, but all attempts to trip him up failed.
The Encounter Of Filiberto Cardenas
Filiberto Cardenas was not only abducted by aliens, according to his claims and revelations through hypnotic regression only months after his 1979 encounter, but he has given several eerily accurate predictions of upcoming events.
During the early evening of January 3, Filiberto was riding with his friend, Fernando, around the outskirts of Miami, Florida, in search of a pig for a barbecue. Suddenly, their vehicle lost power and came to a halt. Both men exited the vehicle and headed to the hood to see what the problem was. As they did, each could hear a humming sound coming from above them. Then they noticed the strange lights and illumination in the bodywork of the car, while at the same time realizing they were completely paralyzed.
Suddenly, Filiberto began to rise from the ground and into a bright light emanating from the craft. Then, he was gone. Fernando’s paralysis wore off just in time for him to see the craft disappear into the sky. Filiberto would turn up in the middle of a busy road two hours later, around 10 miles from where his car had come to a halt. Miami police picked him up, and after contacting his family and Fernando (who had reported Filiberto missing), he was released from their custody.

Incidentally, this case is purported as the first time an official police report acknowledged that a person had disappeared as a consequence of witnessing a UFO.
Filiberto would seek hypnotic regression around six months later. His revelations were extremely similar to many other alleged alien abduction victims. He told of being stuck in a strange seat in a large room, held in place by a suction device on his back. He was subjected to several experiments and remembered several small needles piercing his skull. The aliens began to attempt communication with him. They would speak in several languages, adjusting a device in their hands after each one. After going through German and English, they finally settled on Spanish, which Filiberto understood.
Filiberto recalled being given information telepathically while viewing events on strange screens all around him. He would then tell of upcoming events, including a warning of a city that is going to be destroyed, the capital of Mexico. Six years later in 1985, Mexico City was struck by an earthquake that did indeed completely level part of city. He also stated that almost all the great population centers of California will all go into the sea. In Newsweek in March 1983, an article would tell of several coastal areas that had been lost to coastal erosion, the properties having fallen into the sea. Filiberto is also purported to have predicted the presidency of Ronald Reagan and the AIDS epidemic, among other things.

The Boianai Visitants Over Papua New Guinea
Throughout the summer of 1959 in Papua New Guinea, missionary Father William Gill and many other witnesses would see strange lights in the skies. For two evenings in particular, beginning on June 26, Gill, along with 37 other people, would witness the UFOs close-up. What’s more, on board these strange, otherworldly ships were four humanoid beings who acknowledged the onlookers by waving at them several times. Among the witnesses were many professionals, such as doctors and teachers, a fact which, along with Gill’s good standing and general believability, makes the case one of the most intriguing and credible.
Although the sightings had been happening for several months, this was the first time the craft had come so close so that the witnesses could make out occupants. The visitors would respond to the welcoming calls of the onlookers by waving back at them. When Gill used Morse Code with his torch, the humanoids used their lights on their craft to respond in kind.
Although many witnesses and, in turn, investigators would conclude the occupants to be of extraterrestrial origin, not least because of the ultra-futuristic craft, Gill himself would state his belief that they were human. Furthermore, he believed the craft was a secret military venture.
The Emilcin Encounter
Although as many people cast doubt on the incident as find it genuine, the encounter of Jan Wolski in 1978 now has a stone monument in the place of the apparent meeting between him and humanoid alien beings. In fact, many in the UFO community place this encounter as the first recorded incident of an alien abduction in Poland.
On May 10, 1978, 71-year-old Jan Wolski was driving his horse and cart through the forest area near Emilcin in Poland. It was a little after 8:00 AM, and only he and his horse were on the pathway. That was until he noticed two strange humanoid figures ahead of him. If that wasn’t bizarre enough, as he went to pass these mystery entities, they hopped onto his wagon, positioning themselves behind Wolski, who continued forward for want of a better idea of what to do.
Each of the figures was dressed almost entirely in black and was around 5 feet tall. He noticed their faces and hands to be a light shade of green. He would later recall that they spoke to each other in “thin voices” in a language Wolski could not understand.
As Wolski came to an opening, he noticed a huge, silver-white, oblong craft hovering the air. He likened it to the shape of a bus and noted how it glowed in the morning sun, with no seams or joints anywhere on its exterior. He would enter the craft via a waiting lift. Once inside, one of the beings placed two strange gray discs over his body. They would turn him around so that all of his body was exposed temporarily to these discs. It is possible that these were some kind of scanning or X-ray devices.

It is possible that these were some kind of scanning or X-ray devices.
After that, without incident, the beings motioned for him to leave, which he did after wishing them goodbye with a bow, a gesture they returned to him.
While some believe the account to be false, Wolski attained no apparent financial gain or lasting notoriety following the encounter. Ultimately, opinion remains divided regarding the Emilcin incident.
The 1996 Fife Incident
On the evening of September 23, 1996, in Fife, Scotland, two women and a child would witness out-of-this-world events following a last-minute trip to the shops for coffee. Mary Morrison, her visiting friend Jane, and Mary’s son Peter set off at a little after 8:00 PM. As they drove along the road, they witnessed a strange, bright light which seemed to split in two. As they watched from the car, a huge, triangular craft with red lights on its underside passed overhead. It soon disappeared from sight. Perplexed and shocked, they continued on to the shop.
On the return journey, however, they saw the strange craft again. This time, it came extremely close to their car, hovering overhead for several seconds.

On the return journey, however, they saw the strange craft again. This time, it came extremely close to their car, hovering overhead for several seconds.
After returning home, Mary reported the incident, and then the three of them, along with Mary’s daughter Susan headed back out at the UFO investigator’s request to see if they could spot anything more of interest.
As they approached the place where they had seen the strange craft, each could see an illuminated area at the edge of a field ahead. They stopped the car and positioned themselves behind a wall in order to watch events a little more closely. They could clearly see several thin figures moving back and forth to a huge object on the ground. Each of the figures seemed to be carrying a cube or a box.
They would return to the scene a fourth time, this time with binoculars. As they watched the entities that were clearly not human, a cocoon-shaped capsule raced toward their location. Although it is not entirely clear what happened following this, initial hypnotic regression would suggest an abduction incident took place before the four people were returned to their car, which is their next clear memory following the capsule’s arrival. The incident remains unexplained.
The Sighting Of Edith Boatright
Although the sighting of Edith Boatright was intriguing, it came off the back of the Piedmont High School basketball team sighting, seen at the time to be the main case by UFO investigators.

The Sighting Of Edith Boatright
Although the sighting of Edith Boatright was intriguing, it came off the back of the Piedmont High School basketball team sighting, seen at the time to be the main case by UFO investigators.
On the cold winter evening of February 21, 1973, following a heartbreaking loss in a high school playoff game, the team coach, two staff members, and three players witnessed an intensely bright craft as they made their way home to Piedmont, Missouri, along Highway 60. They would ultimately watch the craft for several minutes from the roadside as it hovered over a field.
At the same time as their sighting, Edith Boatright was lying in bed when she noticed a strange, bright, flashing light from outside her bedroom window. Her farmhouse was around 12 miles from the Piedmont High School bus and the members of the basketball team.

She peered out of the window, and to her amazement, she could see a huge craft hovering over a field. Flashing lights of red, green, and white lit up its surroundings, including the window of Edith’s bedroom. Most intriguing of all, however, was her determined claim that she could see people moving about inside the craft. She watched it, and the beings, for several minutes before the ship vanished at great speed.
It is almost certain that the craft Edith witnessed was the same one the Piedmont High School basketball team members and coaches saw.
