Hello and welcome to the program UFO Warning.
In this episode, we're talking about UFO Tales from Reddit.
That's correct, UFO Tales from Reddit.
Now this article comes to us from travelchannel.com, written
by Beth Braden. I don't have a date on here, but
it's a pretty good article. They've gone to the Reddit site,
just perused the website I guess, and found a bunch of
these different UFO stories on there, put them together, did a
little editing on on them to make them more readable and put
them together. And what I think is actually a
really nice article. The title says 14
extraterrestrial Tales curated from Reddit We scoured Reddit
for the most compelling stories about UFOs and alien encounters.
We may not be alone in the universe after all.
Then it says stories have been edited for clarity and length
goes on. Here it says the encounter
abroad. This is a family story I've
heard only twice. I can't remember how it was
brought up the first time, but the explanation was very vague.
So I asked again a few months later when the family had come
together at the cottage during summer.
They seem kind of iffy talking about it, but provided more
details. They live in Ukraine, but took a
trip to Turkey sometime in the 1990s.
They had rented a little cottage there that was far enough into
the countryside to be considered fairly remote.
Long story short, one evening the dogs outside started going
absolutely crazy, barking viciously and just overhaul
behaving erratically. One of them, the family members,
my grandmother's brother I believe, went outside to check
what was going on and saw that they could what they could only
describe as a UFO coming near their cottage.
It was pretty high up in the sky, but luring a bit as it came
closer. He called for the rest of the
family to come and see and to this day they can still confirm
what they saw. Well, the ones that are still
alive at least. They said it was a triangle
shaped craft and had three lights, one in each corner when
it got serious. When it got seriously close to
the house, they really began to panic and run back.
Inside, their very walls were shaking, dishes were breaking
from the force of the vibrations going throughout the walls and
floor, and the dogs outside were barking louder than ever.
Now they had to be scary. Just imagine you're out here in
the small cottage in the countryside and this giant
triangle UFO comes over and the vibrations off it are so intense
that it's shaking the walls of this little house you're in and
breaking the dishes. It hovered over the cottage for
several minutes before ascending back up and disappearing.
These are all people who are very conservative and
irrational, and they hate discussions regarding the
supernatural, so I have no doubt in my mind that they were
telling the truth. Wow.
Society Judith Grimes had to be an intense experience just so
often times we hear about these giant triangle UFOs just being
silent. But this one here is producing
this loud, or at least very intense humming vibrational
quality to it. Shaking the walls, breaking the
dishes. Really neat.
This one says when the aliens crashed the sleepover.
When I was about 12, my best friends and I used to sleep out
on my friend's trampoline in his yard.
In the summer, we would gather our bed stuff and bounce around
till we got tired, then eventually lay down and go to
sleep. One evening, four of us were
laying on the trampoline talking when we noticed that there's
something floating over the woods nearby.
You couldn't see it directly, just that it blocked the stars
out as it slowly moved. It was just a little higher than
the tree tip tops and completely silent.
We were just some dumb kids, so we just watched it.
Slowly it drifted until it was directly over the top of us.
Then suddenly, there was this light that came.
I cannot describe. It was more than a blinding
bright. It was disorienting.
It was disorientingly crippling bright light, like it's shone
down into you. The next thing I remember, we
were all standing inside my friend's house, looking at a
sliding glass back door, at the object still hovering there.
And then it glided away. We were all spooked, but we
decided to go back out to go to bed on the trampoline.
We're laying there for a while and the next thing we know it
comes back again and does the same exact thing again.
We find ourselves inside looking out the back door.
That almost sounds like 2 abduction experiences with lost
time to me. It says beyond all reason.
We go back outside to bed again, same thing happens again.
We finally decided to sleep inside with the lights on.
It's almost like a repeated abduction 3 different times.
That's what it sounds like. My friends and I lost touch as
we grew up, but when I was 18, I heard one of them was in town.
I ran into him at a party one night and pulled him to the side
to ask him about that night as it had bothered me for some
time. His response is shaking me.
To this day, I cannot describe his reaction sufficiently.
He looked at the ground and said I don't want to talk about it.
I was kind of shocked by his response, so I didn't know what
to say. He got up and walked out and I
stayed sitting there thinking about what had just happened.
I got up after a minute to go see if I can find him, but he
left immediately after. That was it.
Haven't seen him or the others, but this response was enough to
let me know. Something strange definitely
went down that night. I don't know if I want to
remember. That's weird.
It sounds to me like there was some kind of a repeated group
abduction experience, and maybe some of the kids remembered it
and some of them didn't. That's the thing about these UFO
encounters. They're so intentionally
personal. Some people see them, some
don't. I think some people have these
abduction experiences. They have a vague memory of it,
and other people have these abduction experiences and they
have really intense, hurtful memories of it.
This one here says the low flying triangle.
About two years ago, I was in Naples, FL with my friend.
We were on the porch having a smoke around 11:00 PM.
I was leaning on the railing when I saw what I thought was a
plane in the distance turned toward us.
It was flying so low that the front lights blinded us.
My friend scrambled for his phone, which turned out to be
dead, and I figured I would miss it.
I didn't want to run inside to grab my phone through.
The craft was steadily gliding. It was happening so fast.
As the object got closer, we noticed it was a huge black
triangle with three huge circular lights on the bottom.
It was so close, just above the trees right in front of the
building. It was so silent.
The only thing making any sound was the trees rustling below the
craft when the huge black triangle turned on a dime right
in front of us and disappeared over the tops of the buildings.
I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with someone
else. User #800 Yeah, another one of
these giant black triangles. This one sounds like it was
really low. It says this thing was so low
that the light was just shining right at them, this blinding
light. A lot of people have seen these
things, can tell you that the lights on these things are
they're they're very intense. This says don't tell anyone.
This is a story of my father's. It happened in 1982 while my
father was stationed on a military base in New Brunswick.
One night, my father's best friend and his girlfriend left
just after dark to go see Tron at a movie theater.
About an hour later, the friend and his girlfriend were back on
the base. The car pulled in, and my father
immediately noticed that it was damaged pretty badly and covered
in several different colors of paint.
My father asked him what had happened.
They had not gone to the movie. They brushed him off and went to
bed. A few days later, my father got
his friend to tell him what had happened.
They were driving along a stretch of highway and they
noticed lights coming from over a hill just ahead where no
lights should have been because there was nothing around for
miles. Just at the base of that hill
was a parking lot for a park. A bunch of cars were pulling
into the parking lot to investigate the lights, so my
father's friend pulled in too. Everyone got out of their cars
and was about to start hiking to the top of the hill when a large
disk with flashing lights rose above the Hill's peak and he
made it a loud, strange sound. Several cars got banged up and
everyone's panicked to get away. That's the transfer of paint.
My father's friend drove back to the base as fast as possible.
A few days later, men in black suits showed up on the base
looking for people. They talked to my father's
friend and then sent him on his way.
My father asked him what the men wanted to see him for.
The men told the friend that he better shut up and say nothing
about anything that happened if you wanted to keep his military
career. So you have this mass sighting
of these things, almost like a like a close Encounters of a
Third Kind moment where these people are all pulling into this
parking lot and getting out of their cars and going toward this
craft when it seems to have just almost waved them off because
all of a sudden they decide to get back into the cars and just
leave the scene in a state of panic.
Weird. This is Aliens came to see the
Comet back in the spring of 1997.
A group of kids from my neighborhood we're looking up at
the night sky observing the Hell Bop comet.
After a while we started to notice a red and white dot
circling around each other, making sudden movements in every
direction like no aircraft I've ever seen or ever seen since.
At one point they merged into one craft, then shot out three
smaller crafts, although we couldn't tell whether it was a
craft because they just appeared to be balls of light.
This went on for a couple of hours right before the lights
disappeared. They accelerated at lightning
fast speed into the darkness. We all went home terrified of
what we saw the next day on the front page of our small hometown
paper, It said it received several calls.
The explanation they gave was that the local airport was
testing aircraft. To this day.
Whenever I see my friends that were there that night, we'll
sometimes talk about it. None of us can be sure what we
saw, but to this day, none of us have ever seen anything like it.
It's strange how even a small town like that, they want to
make excuses and try to distract people from what they actually
saw, the Rural visitor says. As a kid back in the 1980s, I
was spending the night at my aunt and uncle's house, which
was out in the sticks in Tennessee.
I was sleeping on the couch and woke up due to a bright light
coming through the kitchen window and into the living room.
I was looking toward the light, which was white and slightly
flickering. After about 10 minutes I turned
my head as it was now keeping me awake.
After a few minutes I turned my head back toward the light and
was about to go to sleep. On the love seat I see a still I
I saw a tall, dark figure standing between myself and the
light. I was frozen and could not move
or scream. It approached me, reached out
and began tapping on my forehead with what felt like a nail or
something pointed. This went on for another few
minutes until I must have fallen asleep or was put to sleep.
I worked. I woke up the next morning to a
quiet house. I go into the bathroom and I
have a red spot on my forehead and the skin was slightly broken
but no blood. Wow, that sounds like a very
strange, almost paranormal, up close experience.
This is the no fly zone. I haven't had any encounters
with aliens but my mom has on 9/11, 2001.
Yes, I'm serious. My mom went on a walk on the
waterway after watching the news for hours.
This was the evening time, so the new commercial flights
sanction was already in place. While on her walk, she looked up
after feeling like someone or something was watching her, and
she saw a triangular aircraft floating above her.
At first she thought it might have been a military craft of
some sort, but then realized it was making absolutely no noise.
She said it was so low to the ground that she probably could
have touched it if she wanted to.
But before she could reach out and touch it, the craft zipped
away quickly with no sound at all.
Yeah, I would recommend not touching those things, this one
says, orbiting near an earthquake.
Another one of these cases where you have a UFO show up after
some sort of traumatic event. It seems like 2010 Los Angeles.
I was cleaning up around my apartment when I noticed my
kitchen lamp swinging and my building rocking.
Obviously it was an earthquake. It lasted for a bit and I was
standing out on my balcony which overlooks Runyon Canyon, a
popular hiking trail. I suddenly noticed this object
hovering high in between the mountains.
It was way too high to be a helicopter and too small and low
to be a plane. What made it super strange was
its shape and lack of movement. It was an orb esque and stood
stagnant for about a solid 3 minutes before moving at a
snail's pace to the West. I'm talking slower than any
aircraft, blimp, kite, whatever that I've seen.
It also seemed to reflect off the sun, but only at some
angles. After moving toward the left and
then once again staying completely still, it immediately
darted at what seemed to be like an impossible seed to the
opposite direction upwards, and disappeared once again.
We see these things hanging out wherever something bad's
happening, it says. This one says something helped
us in the swamp. I was 12 at the time and my
family has a camp on the tank of Ahua River in Louisiana.
The only way you can get to it is by boat, so it was just my
uncle, my cousin and myself and we were heading back to the boat
launch on a Sunday night. Now the boat we were in didn't
have any working lights so to see where we were going my uncle
would occasionally shoot a flare.
We quickly ran out of flares. You shoot as it was around A2
hour boat ride back to the landing.
So I ended up on the front of the boat holding a regular flare
as we were now on a much narrower stretch of river.
To our left in the swamp, two large glowing balls appeared.
Then there was another one to the right.
I was just trying to keep the flare from burning me and my
little cousin was freaking out. After around 10 minutes of them
navigating through the swamp, they formed a triangle above us
on the river. It is hard to gauge how far up
they were, but it was very visible.
They continued to follow us for the rest of the journey back to
the landing, and as soon as we arrived, they disappeared.
This all happened around 18 years ago, but it was something
I will never forget. I don't talk about this stuff,
really, and usually just keep it to myself.
That's an odd one, where they're being helped by these orbs
guided out of the swamp. That's that's really neat.
This one says it cast a huge shadow.
This was about 40 years ago. We were camping in the summer in
the woods behind a friend's house about 11:00 PM.
We had to walk back to the house for something.
It was a full moon and there was plenty of light, so we didn't
take flashlights. We went out of the woods and
down a long lane that went along and open pasture between the
woods and the house. We got what we needed and
started to walk back. The moon was behind us.
Over our right shoulder we could see shadows on the ground ahead
of us from the moon. As we were walking, we saw a
black circle with no lights. It just looked like a black hole
in the sky. It was very low above the trees
and moving toward us. Slowly we all stopped, the four
of us, and watched it. It came over the trees and over
the pasture, and then suddenly you could see a shadow moving on
the ground where the moonlight was, giving the thing a shadow
just like us. And it went up from the
northwest to the southeast and passed over us and kept going
until we couldn't see it anymore.
It lasted about two minutes. It did not make any noise.
It did not look like anything, just a perfectly round black
circle. It had no lights and moonlight
did not reflect off it. It made a shadow that was about
the size of a house. I don't know how high it was
because it had no detail, but it seemed very low, like a couple
100 feet. We told our parents the next
day, but no one believed us. We'll do a couple more here.
This is the missing hour, it says.
Driving in the UK from a friend's dinner party, we set
off at around 10:00 PM for a 15 minute drive home.
There was myself, my wife in the front and my three sons in the
back of the car. We were driving near AUS Air
Force Base in the southeast of England along a long straight
piece of Rd. when there was an incredible flash that the that
the wife and I noticed and it seemed to wake up one of the
elder sons in the back. He would have been about 12 at
the time, something I have no idea what flew with absolute
silence over the car. I saw it, my wife saw it and the
son in back who was awakened by the flash saw it.
Something flew right over us so close she could touch it and it
was big. We got home, discussed it a bit
and concluded the flash was a flare from the US Air Force Base
and the large object that flew over us may well have been a
Eurasian Eagle owl. One had been spotted in this
area. It was promptly forgotten.
Funny how people will take the most unlikely things and try to
use them as an excuse for the UFO they saw.
Fast forward just over a decade and I and the son who was woken
by the Flash are talking about this weird event over dinner.
When the youngest son who didn't wake up during the event tells
us how he remembered it happening, he recalled an event
that was vastly different than ours.
He had never told his story before.
We thought it was a dream until we started talking about it.
He described how the car was stopped when he saw the Flash.
We weren't moving and the low flying object sat on top of us
for a few seconds then flew off before the car started again.
Apparently I completely ignored this stop start and simply
continued driving. Now here's the really cool bit
that we had never realized. My wife had made arrangements to
call her sister when she arrived home safely.
We left at around 10:00 PM for a 15 minute drive.
My wife called her sister around 11:45 PM to say we had arrived
home. I have no idea what happened
that night. I was completely sober.
My youngest son insists that something very odd happened.
My wife is adamant that we took approximately 90 minutes to do a
15 minute drive. Her sister backs this up.
I might not know what happened that night, but I am secure in
the thought that something happened.
Well, this sounds like another missing time Possible abduction
case to me. Very strange daytime shooting
star. I was driving down a road in the
middle of the day. There are fields on both sides,
no other cars. On the road.
I saw what looked like a falling star.
It was a big white ball of light with the tail and it was hard to
look at. Even with sunglasses on.
I had time to pull over and stop, still watching it fall
straight down. This thing was going way faster
than it should have, and so I was struggling to get my phone
out of my pocket without taking my eyes off of it.
Here's where it gets weird. Without any warning, when it
reached about eye level, it levelled off.
I watched this thing go from vertical to horizontal.
In less than a second it disappeared behind a line of
trees and I knoped out of there. Yeah, sometimes these things do
seem to almost want to camouflage as some sort of a,
you know, shooting star, meteor, satellite, whatever.
We have two of them here that are left.
We saw a light on the ocean that slowly came out of the water.
What we saw was like an orb shaped ball of light.
It was so bright for a moment that I almost couldn't see the
object itself. It kept going up slowly and
suddenly took off quickly into the dark sky.
Everything happened in like 8 seconds.
We both were freaked out and went inside the apartment.
Years later I saw a report on the National Geographic about
orb shaped lights flying around a forest in the USA.
I knew it was the same thing I saw.
Here's the last one. It says it wasn't a police car
and this was 2012 or 2013. My ex and I were driving down a
remote highway, rural W had a seat late one night I was in the
passenger seat. It was a very open area, no
trees, and surrounded on both sides by flat fields.
I'm looking out the window to my right and see this thing
traverse the sky. It was an artificial looking
blue light. Think the color of lights on a
cop car, but a little darker. It blinked with an even rhythm
three or four times. The thing that stunned me was
how fast it was moving. It was low to the horizon, and
it moved from the area of the horizon in front of us to the
area of the horizon behind us in about 3 to 5 seconds.
I wasn't able to estimate size or closeness to Earth because of
how fast it happened, but it was big.
I've seen shooting stars that were close to Earth and this was
definitely not what that was. My ex saw it too, and it freaked
us both out. People are seeing these things,
and I like the fact that they've gone to the work to go to Reddit
and dig a few of these up. Norfolk and move on aren't the
only places you can report these things.
People are seeing, these UFOs are having encounters, they're
having experiences, and they're talking about it.
And contrary to what any government report says or what
any of the debunkers say, people are seeing and experiencing and
having encounters with UFOSI think pretty much every day of
the week. Until next time.
This is UFO warning over now.
