Editor:Below is an unusual story for you. We don't get too many like this.
Shenandoah National Park, Virginia Frightening Sound/Alien Abduction/Men In
Black
Date: Mid 1970's
Time: Approx: 10:00 p.m.
I also want to say what a great job you have done and how much your efforts
are appreciated.
As (very) partial repayment, I'm forwarding my one and only significant story.
The short version of which involves myself and my best friend from my teenage
years (mid-1970's; I'm also an "old" guy...) on a backpacking trip in
Shenandoah National Park, Virginia, which we did fairly frequently during
those years. Two mildly unusual events occurred one evening after dark when
we were camped in a very remote off-trail area. In the early evening (just
after dark) there was an extremely high amount of static electricity, so much
so that we could create persistent "glowing circles" on our insulating
sleeping pads by rubbing them rapidly in circles with our hands. At the time,
this just seemed pretty 'neat', and we dismissed it (I had never seen this
before (or since).While in the tent, a few hours later, maybe 10PM, we had a
candle lit and were talking.
Suddenly a sound occurred, close by, that I have tried to best describe as
maybe 2 yodelers working in conjunction, sort of slow-modulating a
more-rapidly modulated sound up and down (this definitely sounded living, and
not mechanically-created). It was so odd that both my friend and I initially
started laughing, and then suddenly became terrified (within about a 1 second
interval) when we realized that no human (not even 2 professional yodelers)
could not have been making the sound we were hearing and that this was not a
human or any normal animal for the area (I still remember the rapid expression
change from laughter to terror on my friend's face - wish I had a videotape of
both of us at that instant - something to laugh about today). Anyway, we
immediately blew out the candle and lay quiet. As odd as it sounds, we both
then fell asleep after what seemed a fairly short while (no more noises
occurred during that time period and I recall we both fell asleep with our
knives held in our hands). So far, and for many years, this was the entire
story and I thought no more of it, except to try and find out what may have
made that sound (I had always assumed an animal, and it still could be.)
Part 2 of this is that my friend's family moved to Florida later that year,
and we gradually lost contact with each other for the next several years. I
had gone to college and he had sort of drifted all around the U.S., doing
everything from odd jobs such as house painting in the South and California to
working on ranches in Montana. As I understand it, he did a lot of
hitch-hiking to get from place to place and was often camping alone in remote
areas during his travels. I spoke with him around 1986 or 1987 after he had
returned to Florida and he was a very different person - basically primarily
talking about aliens, having been abducted while hitchhiking at night in the
desert Southwest, etc. One thing that really was interesting to me in
hindsight was that he described in great detail being currently (at that time)
watched on multiple separate occasions by the classic 'Men in Black' at his
parent's house in Florida, though he was totally unaware of the term at that
time or that it was a 'known' phenomena (his voice was shaking when he
described them, black car, black suits, sunglasses, sometimes parked on the
far side of the street in front of his house). I had read a Budd Hopkins book
in the last year or so and actually informed him at that time of the term 'Men
in Black' (he had never heard of it) and also told him to look into reading
the Hopkins book (I think it was Missing Time). After this time period, we
sort of again lost contact and I haven't been in real contact with him since.
Part 3: About 4 or so years ago, his younger brother contacted me primarily
for other reasons when he was traveling in my area. The continuation of the
above story is that his brother is now completely "unemployable" as he will be
apparently fine for short periods but will then go off into seemingly crazy
conversations/discourses about aliens/UFO's, etc. (fine under some
circumstances, but not well-received in most workplace environments). He has
also had some health conditions, which may or may not have been correlated to
the other experiences.
Part of what has kept me interested in this area is my friend's experience, as
well as the continuing, cumulative 'preponderance of evidence' from all the
other ongoing reports, sightings, etc. What has made me more recently
interested in the early backpacking experience in connection with everything
else was, in part, aspects of your 1000 Oaks, California report, in
combination with my friends later unfortunate experiences through the years.

Glencoe, Nova Scotia, Canada Bright Blue Object Lights Up The Area
Date: Winter of 2003
Time: 9:00 p.m.
Location of Sighting: Glencoe, Nova Scotia, Canada.
Number of witnesses: 2
Number of Objects: 1 or 2 (see description)
Shape of Objects: Unknown.
Full Description of Event/Sighting: I never knew exactly what this was and
this would be the first time I'm reporting this, but thought that someone
might be interested in this, especially since lately UFO sightings have
increased by so much.
This was a few years ago and hence I don't remember all the detail, however
this is my story. I was by myself, on the way home from visiting who is now my
ex girlfriend. It was a clear winter night and we lived out in a very rural
area with no street lights, houses, etc.
As I drove around the last few turns before emerging from the wooded windy
road, I noticed a very bright blue object in my rear view mirror that was
traveling in my general direction. The object passed over head me and as it
did, it lit up the area around me in the same bright blue
light. As it passed me and disappeared behind the tops of trees, suddenly I
could see a very bright blue flash from wherever the object was and then dark,
only my cars headlights to illuminate the snow covered road once again.
As I came home about 5 mins. later, I told this to my mother who then says
that she seen the same thing, but she seen the object travel north bound which
is the exact opposite of where I seen it go.
Mind you, this could of been a meteor with debris falling off it and then
crashing into ground, hence the flash, but I don't know. And I'm one who
believes in UFO's and aliens existence. Either way, someday I'd like to know
what it really was.

Sackville, New Brunswick A Black Triangular UFO
Date: May 2004
Time: Dusk.
Location of Sighting: Sackville, New Brunswick, Canada.
Number of witnesses: 4
Number of Objects: 1
Shape of Objects: Triangle.
Full Description of Event/Sighting: Three friends and I were walking trough
the woods of our small rural town one day after school. We decided to go the
gravel pit nearby and climb atop one of the huge mounds of gravel which could
put us above the above the tree line for a good view.
We were sitting atop the gravel pile just chatting and hanging out. As I was
looking towards the horizon above the tree-line, I noticed a really big bright
white star right on the horizon, or what I thought to be a star at first.
Being quite familiar with the sky, this object looked out of place to me. No
stars were at this position at this time of the day/month, at this brightness.
I looked at it for about a minute, then I brought it to the attention of my 3
friends. Then it started moving up
from the horizon bearing north east (to the right), held its position,
retaining the same point like, star qualities. It then began moving west, to
the left. I remember thinking "heck, this isn't a star, but what kind of craft
can do that sort of maneuver, planes and jets have to fly strait and can't
stop"
Then it started getting bigger as if it were moving closer and we realized it
was coming towards us. For lack of a better word, it "broke" into three lights
(I believe the three lights, appeared
blurred into one white light, because it was too far for our eyes, and upon
coming closer we were able to view it correctly). The craft came directly at
us and proceeded to move directly over top of us at an extremely low altitude,
at a height I would roughly estimate to be a 100ft. There was no sound.
Nothing, no combustion process whatsoever, no exhaust trail. Just what seemed
like the sound of an object moving through the air, almost inaudible. It was
completely black and I
couldn't make out any surface features on the object, except for 3 lights, one
on each corner. It slowly flew over and past us. Then it just proceeded to
move out of sight at the same speed.
I remember us being completely wild and distraught, stunned and bewildered at
what we had seen. I think about this incident quite often, but only now felt
compelled to say something about it. If anyone else see has seen such triangle
craft in eastern Canada, I'd love to hear about it. Was this advanced
military technology, or other-worldly?
