Birmingham UFO Group Case Report Author: Dave Hodrien Originally forwarded by Richard Hall Release Date: 11/08/2011 Nick has had two fascinating experiences which could well be ET related. The first is a sighting of a glowing underwater object that he saw while on holiday in India. It is quite rare for BUFOG to be contacted regarding USO sightings, but as this incident shows, they do occur from time to time. A year later Nick had another sighting of a glowing UFO from his home in York. This report covers both incidents in depth. For reasons of anonymity pseudonyms have been used 18/03/2007 – Glowing USO Between February and March of 2007 Nick and his partner went on an extended holiday to South India. On the 18th March they were staying at the Bethsadia Hermitage in the state of Kerala, a few miles from Kovalam Beach. There were not many guests there due to the time of year. Aerial map of Kovalam Beach: 📷 At 4.15am that morning Nick got up early to watch the local fishermen head out to sea from the beach. It was a warm and still morning. The sun had not risen yet, and there appeared to be a localised electrical storm about 400 yards out to sea. However there was something strange about this storm, it looked like the lightning strikes were coming upward from the sea itself! After a few minutes the fisherman suddenly began to get excited and started pointed at a dull yellow light which appeared to be coming from underwater around the area of this storm. It was moving parallel to the beach and looked like it was close to the surface. There was no wake or turbulence on the surface. From their vantage point both Nick and the fishermen could clearly see the object. The fishermen were chattering amongst themselves in Malayalam, Nick had no idea of what they were saying to each other. After a short while the light suddenly vanished. The air was filled with static electricity which made the hairs on Nick’s arms and head stand up. The fishermen did not head out to sea so Nick returned to the hotel. When he got back he found out the electrical supply had been affected, and also the Kovalam lighthouse had briefly stopped working. Power cuts are common in India so Nick has no idea whether these incidents were linked with either the light or the storm. When he told the hotel manager about the light he had seen, the manager informed him that lights are seen underwater in the area from time to time and that nobody has been able to find out what they are. Apparently when the lights are seen the fishermen are not able to catch any fish in the area, which is why they had not headed out to sea. Nick finds this interesting as fish are usually drawn to light not scared away by it. The fishermen believe the lights are supernatural in nature. Later in the morning Nick went for a swim and he noticed that the water felt heavy and he seemed to be more buoyant than usual. He has no idea if this was related to the incident or not, but felt it was worth mentioning. It is rare that BUFOG receives details of a USO sighting, but they do happen from time to time. Incidents such as this one support the theory that the ETs are using our seas as bases and are living alongside us out of sight. It is interesting that the yellow light was seen at the same time as the electrical storm. This could be purely coincidence but the two are probably linked. Perhaps the bolts of lightning were actually coming up from the object rather than down from the clouds. However this could have been an optical illusion. If they really were coming from the sky, perhaps the USO was the cause of the storm in the first place and the lightning was attracted to the object. Could the USO have actually been an electrical build up of energy being discharged in the water? Although worth considering, this seems unlikely due to the fact that the light did not remain in the one area but actually started moving along underwater. The fact the light moved also means it could not have been the morning sun reflecting off the surface. Also the fisherman would not have been reacting in the way they did unless it was defiantly something out of the ordinary – if it had been sunlight then they would be used to seeing it. The actions of the fishermen also mean it cannot have been misidentification of ships lights, they would certainly have known what these look like. It is unknown whether any of the electrical issues reported at the time were down to the proximity of the glowing object, whether they were down to interference from the storm, or whether it was merely coincidence. The fact that the hotel manager confirmed that unidentified lights had been seen underwater on previous occasions certainly points towards this being a genuine sighting of something unusual. If it was an actual glowing object what could it have been? It seems very unlikely that the military would be moving around underwater in an object which was so conspicuous from the shore. They would certainly have been aware that this area was used for fishing purposes and that they would be seen by the fishermen. Therefore I feel there is the possibility that this was something else entirely, an advanced underwater craft of some kind, perhaps extraterrestrial in origin. March 2008 – Blue Manta UFO Sighting It was midnight on a night in March 2008. Nick was at his home in Wilberfoss, York. He was about to get into bed and glanced out of the bedroom window. It was a clear night with good visibility. He looked up into the sky almost directly overhead and was amazed to see a glowing bright sparkling blue object. Nick describes the object as looking like the shape of a manta ray but without a tail. It had a domed central section and then what looked like a wing sticking out each side which was curved downwards. There were no markings visible on the object. Nick estimates that it was at an altitude of about 5000 feet and was the size of a jumbo jet. It was moving on a North Westerly course and seemed to be travelling at quite a fast speed. As it moved away Nick saw it silhouetted against the moon. He watched it for about a minute until it had moved out of sight. As it headed away he noted that the light was not really visible anymore, it was only really bright when it had been overhead. Nick’s wife was in the room and heard his shouts of surprise, but did not go to the window herself. This is an interesting sighting. Nick feels it was definitely under control, whether manned or unmanned and was some kind of craft. While this explanation cannot be ruled out, I do wonder if the object could have been a novelty shaped blue LED blimp. These are large inflatables that come in a variety of colours and shapes, and can sometimes be remote controlled. While these are quite rare this is still a possibility. Perhaps the object was closer, smaller and moving slower than it appeared to be. It is hard to accurately judge distances of objects in the sky after dark as there is no point of reference. You may feel that I am being overly dismissive here, but it is always good practice to take mundane explanations into account rather than assume everything is a genuine UFO from the off. I cannot really say either way, so the idea the object was an extraterrestrial craft cannot be put out of the question. It was certainly not a conventional aircraft or helicopter. Conclusion As you can see Nick has had two unusual sightings which appear completely un-related to one another. Both have very interesting aspects and could have been of very unusual objects. If he decides to stay in touch this report may be updated with further sightings as and when they take place. Copyright Dave Hodrien 2011

Birmingham UFO Group Report Originally forwarded by Richard Hall Author: Dave Hodrien Last Updated: 25/08/2011 Sighting Details Back in 2009 Kristopher Clinton and a work colleague had an unusual sighting while out at High Park, Glasgow. It was about 1.30am and the men were walking home from their night shift through the park. It was a calm and clear night. As they walked, Kristopher’s work mate suddenly pointed something out to him in the sky. They saw a collection of small amber coloured lights. The lights were not in any particular formation and seemed to be randomly positioned against one another. They also appeared to be stationary. After a short time the lights seemed to start fading away. As they did other lights seemed to appear at a different position to the original ones. This continued, with lights appearing for a random period of time then fading to darkness. There did not seem to be any particular formation to them. Whenever the lights were visible they did not move at all. The men were puzzled by what they were looking at and continued to watch the lights for up to 45 minutes. After this time they decided to continue home, with the lights still appearing at random in the sky. They could not think of anything which could explain what they had seen. Sighting Analysis No doubt the lights appeared very unusual to the witnesses. However I feel that it is likely they were watching a launch of multiple Chinese lanterns. Lanterns usually appear as amber coloured orbs of light as Kristopher describes. When there is a breeze blowing, lanterns tend to float on a path across the sky and seem to follow each other. However when the weather is calm they will float up into the sky and move about slowly in different directions or sometimes hover quite still for periods of time. Lanterns usually flicker in brightness due to the lit flame inside them. The more distant they are the more this effect is increased, and at great distance they can only be visible when burning brightly and seem to vanish for periods of time before suddenly reappearing. Of course while they are out of sight they can drift, which accounts for the fact that the lights kept on appearing in different positions in the sky. The fact this sighting took place in the early hours of the morning on a clear night probably means that what was witnessed was a launch of many lanterns from a celebration somewhere near to the park. It is unlikely that lanterns were being launched for the entire 45 minutes, but they can remain burning for quite a length of time, and with no wind to blow them would have remained in the same area of sky. I feel that this adequately explains what was seen. Copyright Dave Hodrien 2011

Birmingham UFO Group Case Report Author: Dave Hodrien Release Date: 11/08/2011 This report covers three UFO sightings over Bartley Green all experienced by the same witness, a lady named Sinead. She got in touch with me after coming across my contact details on the UK UFO Sightings website. 2010 - Black Disc UFO Sighting It was a clear and sunny day back in 2010. Sinead was sitting at the bedroom window of her house in Bartley Green and having a cigarette. There is a nice view of the surrounding area from the window so she was just looking out at the clear blue sky. There were no planes or helicopters visible, just a few birds flying between the gardens. Her cat came into the bedroom and approached her ankles. Sinead bent down and stroked her for about 5 seconds. When she looked back up she noticed there was now an object hovering in the sky. She blinked and squinted to make sure she wasn’t seeing things but the object remained visible. At first it looked like a thick black line, about four metres in length. It didn’t look like it was very far away, but the exact distance was hard to accurately judge. It was completely stationary, which made it look very un-natural. She continued to watch the object. After about 40 seconds it began to tilt forward. At this point it became clear that it was not cigar shaped but was a flattened disc. It continued to tilt on its axis for a number of seconds then suddenly halted again. It remained in that position for about 30 seconds. Then it began to slowly move away, heading off into the distance. This continued until it was just a spec and vanished from sight. Sinead was amazed at what she had just witnessed. She sat at the window ledge for about half an hour trying to come to terms with it. She found it very creepy, the way in which it had just suddenly appeared there and then sat there completely still and silent. She looked around on the internet to try and find something which looked similar to what she had seen. The best match she found was in the video where the two jets chase down a UFO over the M5 motorway. This video is widely regarded to be a hoax, but the object shown in it looked the same as what she had seen. This is an intriguing sighting. I find it very interesting that the object suddenly appeared within the space of 5 seconds. This supports the idea that it was something very unusual, as it was a clear day so surely Sinead would have seen the object move up to that position. If it had retained the appearance of a thick black line and had not tilted I would have suggested that it was a solar airship. These are long black cylindrical inflatables that lift up into the air when the air inside them heats up in the sun. It was a bright and clear day so this would be ideal weather conditions to launch one of these. However according to the witness the object was disc shaped and only appeared as a line initially when viewed directly from the side. There is the possibility that it was some kind of inflatable or blimp which had become un-tethered. However if it was, more random drifting movements would have been expected rather than the structured manoeuvres that the object seemed to perform. As Sinead did not see the object appear out of nowhere, suddenly vanish or move at a very fast speed this cannot be put out of the question, but it seems a little unlikely. Some of the aspects of this sighting are very interesting and suggest that the object may have been something out of the ordinary, perhaps this was a daylight sighting of a genuine disc-shaped craft. 2010 - Orange Orbs Sighting Later in 2010 Sinead had a sighting of a number of glowing orange orbs. Once again she was at her house. It was evening time when she spotted the orbs out of the window. First of all she spotted five of them that were in a perfect pentagon shape. Each orb was glowing a fiery orange and was constantly bright. They appeared to be in quite close proximity to one another. The orbs travelled across the sky on a straight path. Further behind the initial 5, Sinead spotted a further 2 orbs. These seemed to be travelling faster than the initial ones, and slowly but surely caught them up and overtook them. Sinead openly admits that Chinese lanterns could have been the explanation for the orbs. However she says that they appeared strange to her and unlike lanterns she had seen on other occasions. They seemed to be floating very closely to one another, formed a perfect shape in the sky, did not flicker at all and did not appear to rise in altitude throughout the sighting. I would agree that some of these observations appear a little strange, however I still feel that lanterns is the most likely explanation. They often seem to form shapes in the sky or move in a structured manner, but this can be due to them being caught in the same air current so they all travel in the same direction at the same speed. The two orbs that caught up the others could have been in a different air current alongside the main group, or could have been burning hotter providing them with more propulsion. 21/06/2011 – Silver Sphere Sighting On 21st June 2011 Sinead and her friend were once again smoking at the bedroom window and looking out over Bartley Green. It was a clear and sunny day. They noticed three very large planes flying extremely low. They reminded Sinead of B2 bombers from the war. However she is not interested in aircraft so has no idea of the exact model. It is possible that they were on their way to an airshow. As one of the planes flew past the clock tower in Selly Oak at low altitude, they suddenly noticed a small spherical object emerge from a nearby cloud. It looked white in colour at first, which could have been down to light reflection, but then stopped moving and turned a metallic silver colour. The sun was reflecting very brightly off one side of the object. The sphere remained stationary for about 30 seconds. Then suddenly it disappeared. This was followed by two flashes of light, one where the sphere had been and the second a little further across the sky. The girls discussed what they had just witnessed. About 3 minutes later, a thin cylindrical contrail appeared in the sky. The starting point for this contrail was where the sphere had initially been situated. Silver spheres are one of the more commonly reported UFO types. They are generally small in size and are probably un-manned monitoring devices. This could well have been one of these objects. Obviously sometimes silver coloured balloons can be the explanation. However there are some unusual aspects to this sighting. The object appeared to be under control; it moved out of the cloud and then abruptly came to a halt. It then remained in this position until suddenly vanishing. Surely if it was a balloon it would have not only drifted but would have remained visible. Then again perhaps it was still there but was reflecting the light in such a way that it was no longer visible from the girl’s location. Perhaps the flashes of white light were the object briefly catching the sunlight and brightly reflecting, this is a possibility worth considering. The fact that there was a contrail several minutes later is interesting but I feel probably not to do with the object in any way. ET craft are very rarely reported as leaving contrails in the sky, the very presence of one means that fuel has been used up, which tends to support a human-made explanation. Conclusion Sinead has had some interesting sightings over the two years. While all of them have the possibility of being something mundane, the black coloured disc and silver sphere sightings both have a number of aspects which are hard to put down to an everyday explanation. I hope that she continues to stay in touch and keep me informed of any further sightings she has, and if so this report may be updated going forward. Copyright Dave Hodrien 2011

Birmingham UFO Group Case Report Author: Dave Hodrien Originally forwarded by Richard Hall Release Date: 26/08/2011 Most modern sightings of orange orbs seen in the sky after dark tend to be explainable by Chinese lanterns. However occasionally there are aspects to these sightings which cannot be explained so easily. This is one such sighting. Sighting Details It was 6pm on an evening in the winter of 2010. It was a clear and mild evening for the time of year, and there was a South Westerly wind blowing about 4 mph. Stephen Notti was in his house on Hudleston, Cullercoats Bay, North Tyneside. He was sitting in the living room watching TV. The front window blinds were open, offering a view to the South. Aerial map of Hudleston: 📷 Suddenly he noticed through the window an orange orb of light in the sky, which had seemingly just appeared from nowhere. He immediately stopped watching TV and stared at the object. It appeared to be pulsing in brightness, and Stephen estimates it was twice the size of a jumbo jet. As he watched it seemed to descend directly downwards at quite a fast speed. Then he noticed a second similar object appear and once again descend. Both objects continued to descend until they were about 600 feet off the ground. They then briefly halted. Next one of them went to the left, where as the other moved to the right, almost like they were searching for something. They then moved back together again. Next one of the orbs started moving to the East towards the sea, and a second later the other orb followed. Stephen continued to watch the lights. They moved about half a mile out to sea then briefly stopped. They then once again switched course and headed in a Southerly direction until out of sight. In total he had watched the objects for about 20 seconds. Sighting Analysis The appearance of the objects in this sighting certainly fits in with them being Chinese lanterns. These appear as orange glowing orbs at a distance, and often appear to pulse/flicker in brightness due to the lit flame inside them. It is hard to accurately estimate their size, and sometimes the bright glow coming from them can make them appear to be much bigger and more distant than they in fact are. That said I find the movement pattern of the objects in this sighting very interesting. Lanterns tend to either drift randomly and slowly rise when there is no wind, or if there is wind they tend to float on a straight course across the sky, again slowly ascending due to the heated air inside. However it appears that in this case both objects initially descended, something lanterns only tend to do when they are going out. Also they both seemed to appear from nowhere. It was a clear night so surely Stephen would have seen them both drift into view not suddenly appear? We must also take into account that once the objects had descended one headed one way and one the other. Stephen says that there was a South Westerly wind blowing, so it would be expected that both objects would have drifted in this direction, yet neither appeared to. Throughout the sighting they appeared to be following their own defined paths rather than just drifting in the wind, and it is for this reason that they may have been something other than lanterns. Interesting that the movements are, it cannot be denied that the appearance of the objects fits with lanterns. Therefore this cannot be completely ruled out. Perhaps at higher altitude the wind was blowing in different directions causing the objects to be buffeted around and seem to perform intelligent manoeuvres. So it is hard to say for definite exactly what the objects were, there is arguments both for and against the lanterns explanation. At the end of the day it’s down to what you feel is the most probable. Copyright Dave Hodrien 2011

Birmingham UFO Group Case Report Author: Dave Hodrien Originally forwarded by Richard Hall Release Date: 26/08/2011 Sighting Analysis Ralph Little often enjoys to sit out under the stars and watch the night sky. Around 9.45pm on a clear evening in June or July of 2007 he was doing precisely this, sitting out in the garden of his house on North Promenade, Withernsea, Yorkshire. It was a pleasant evening, warm and with a very light breeze blowing. The stars and moon were visible. The sun’s fading light could still be seen to the North West. Aerial map of North Promenade showing the location of the witness: 📷 Ralph is experienced in looking at the night sky and so knows what is normal to see and what is out of the ordinary. He watched a satellite cross the night sky, heading in a Northern direction. As it faded away into the distance he looked back to where it had come from and noticed another object which again appeared to be a satellite. He again followed it across the sky. As it began to move away to the North, something very bizarre happened. Suddenly it appeared that a bright electric blue light emerged from the rear of the object. It then immediately shot away at an incredible speed, banking off to the right as it went! It was lost from sight within several seconds, and moved so fast that the glow from it appeared as a light streak. Map showing the route of the UFO. The horizontal line indicates the point at which the bright light appeared, and the arrow indicates the point at which it appeared as nothing more than a glowing streak of light due to the speed of movement: 📷 Ralph had certainly never seen anything like it before. He was absolutely stunned. He knew that the object could not have been anything conventional. In his opinion it must have been one of two things. It was either an unknown spacecraft of Earth origin, possibly something developed in secret, or it was a genuine advanced craft of extraterrestrial origin. Sighting Analysis This is a very impressive sighting for a number of reasons. The witness was used to looking at the night sky so would easily be able to recognise meteorites, satellites, the International Space Station or other things seen on a regular basis. Due to the appearance of the object it certainly seems that it was up in space, though there is the possibility it was at very high altitude in the atmosphere. The fact it was initially moving at the speed of a satellite means it cannot have been a meteorite. Sometimes the suns rays can catch satellites and space debris, causing them to become extremely bright. This could possibly explain the sudden flash of light, but the incredible speed the object then moved off at shows that it was under powered control and not just an object drifting in orbit. After looking at the evidence available, I would have to agree with Ralph – this was probably either an experimental human-made spacecraft or an ET craft. It is of course impossible to say which, however if it was ours then it clearly had the ability to accelerate and move extremely rapidly. ET craft certainly possess these capabilities, as has been proved through countless sighting reports. So you may feel, as I do, that this was more likely to have been theirs than ours.

Birmingham UFO Group Report Author: Dave Hodrien Originally forwarded by Richard Hall Release Date: 26/08/2011 Sighting Details Around 2pm on an afternoon in April 2010, Mr K. Hagan was at the back door of his house in Cookstown, Northern Ireland. He was having a cup of tea and standing outside as it was a sunny day with only partial cloud cover. Mr Hagan happened to glance up into the sky and noticed a strange object directly overhead. It was egg or oval in shape, and metallic silver in colour. There was a dark line on it, and he could see that the object was rotating. It appeared to be between 50-100 feet in length. Mr Hagan estimates it was about 2000 feet in the air. The object was moving very slowly in a South Westerly direction. Mr Hagan was amazed by the sight of the object, he had not seen anything like it before. He called his wife outside so she could see it too. She watched for a short while before returning inside. Mr Hagan continued to watch the object for half an hour. During this time it slowly moved over the roof of his house and headed away to the South West. In the end it was too close to the sun and he could not see it anymore due to the brightness. Sighting Analysis The object seen in this incident was clearly not a conventional aircraft of any kind. However I feel that the most likely explanation for it was a silver coloured balloon or inflatable of some kind. The fact that the object was moving very slowly on a straight course and rotating fits in with it drifting slowly on an air current. It did not perform any manoeuvres which would indicate intelligence. Mr Hagan estimates it was quite large in size; however it is often hard to judge the size of aerial objects accurately as there is no point of reference. So the object may have been smaller and closer than it appeared to be. The fact that Mr Hagan watched it for half an hour yet did not manage to take any photographs or video of the object is disappointing. Often when people see UFOs they are too excited or intrigued by what they are seeing that they completely forget to try and capture it on camera. The fact that it was seen in broad daylight over a residential area and moving at a slow speed means that there were likely to have been other witnesses who are yet to come forward.

Birmingham UFO Group Case Report Author: Dave Hodrien Originally forwarded by Richard Hall Release Date: 28/08/2011 Late evening in the winter of 1977 a couple had a very unusual experience while out in their car. This experience involved the apparent temporary shut-down of an entire motorway of traffic, and a period of missing time. Although they do not recall seeing any craft or beings, there is the possibility that the witnesses or someone else in the area were abducted. In May 2011 the couple attended a lecture by Richard Hall, and he advised that they get in touch with me to recount what took place. Incident Details On the night of the incident, Vic and his wife Val had been round his sister’s house on Wilderness Lane, Great Barr, Birmingham. They left the house between 10-10.30pm. It was a cold night but there was a clear sky above. Further along the road about five minutes later they were approaching an overpass of the M6 motorway . The overpass was about 300 yards ahead of them, and the lights from passing traffic could be seen. Aerial map showing Wilderness Lane with the M6 overpass and the approximate location of the witnesses marked: 📷 Photograph of the incident location showing the M6 overpass in the distance: 📷 Suddenly a very bright white light lit up the whole area around them brighter than daylight. This light seemed to be coming from beyond the overpass. They could no longer see any moving lights on the overpass, it felt almost like they had been frozen in time. However their car still worked fine and they could still move freely. Vic pulled the car over at the side of the road. Everything was extremely quiet and still. Vic was unsure of what was taking place but remained calm. However Val was very upset with the situation. Everything seemed to remain still for what seemed like 10 minutes. A fox then walked across the road in front of their stopped car, seemingly unaffected by what was taking place. A moment later the light suddenly went away and they could once again see moving traffic on the overpass. The couple were very confused by what had just happened. They returned to Vic's sister’s house to see if they had experienced anything similar. When they knocked on the door they found out an hour had gone by and Vic's sister had actually got up out of bed to let them in. The location where the event happened was only 5 minutes drive from the house, and it had seemed like the light had been present for about 10 minutes, so there was up to 40 minutes which they could not account for. The incident has puzzled both the witnesses ever since, and they hope to find out what really took place on that night. Incident Analysis Although the couple did not see an actual craft or ET beings at any point, at least to their current knowledge, I feel that they may have been abducted. The ETs often shut down the surrounding area when they take individuals. This is probably done to prevent others from seeing them or interfering with what they are doing. The bright white light which the couple saw could well have come from a craft in their proximity, which temporarily stopped time in order to abduct them. The fact that both witnesses experienced the same thing means it is very unlikely to have been down to a medical reason or hallucination. It is interesting to note that although the area ahead of them appeared to be frozen, the witnesses themselves could still move freely and their car still worked. This suggests a completely different possibility – that someone else nearby was abducted and the witnesses were caught up in some kind of time distortion which affected the local area. However it seems unlikely that all vehicles in the area would have been switched off. Also the incident seemed to go on for 10 minutes, surely in this time other vehicles would have arrived at the location from further back on the motorway. Looking at this situation logically, if these vehicles too were shut down all at the same place this would surely have caused a pile up? And this explanation does not take into account the missing time aspect of the case. The fact that the incident seemed to go on for about 10 minutes but in actual fact about 50 minutes had gone by suggests that the couple were abducted from their vehicle and had the memories of this experience blocked out. If this is really what happened, then perhaps just the witnesses and their vehicle were inside the area of time distortion. This would have made it seem that everything else around them had stopped. Perhaps they were conscious for the first 10 minutes of this experience but after this were taken. This seems to me the most probable explanation for what was experienced. It is possible that hypnotic regression may be able to unlock the memories of what took place during the missing period of time. I have recommended this as a way forward. It would be fascinating to regress both Vic and Val and see if they come out with matching stories. This may be arranged in the near future. If it is then the findings will be added to this report.

Birmingham UFO Group Case Report Author: Dave Hodrien Originally forwarded by Richard Hall Release Date: 31/08/2011 In July 2011 Tim (name changed for privacy reasons) got in touch with me via Richplanet.net to report a very interesting incident which happened to him back in October of 1997 or 1998. The incident included the sighting of numerous unidentified beings, two UFOs and missing memories. This report covers the incident and speculates what may have taken place. Incident Details At the time of the incident Tim was on a camping trip with his family and friends in the Lake District. They had set up camp on a hillside along the northern edge of Ullswater. It was late evening and the weather was clear. Tim was sitting next to the campfire. Everyone else had gone to sleep in the tents. The only light source was the fire itself. The site was surrounded by trees. Aerial map of Ullswater showing the rough location where the group were camped: 📷 Tim suddenly noticed some movement quite close by off to his right. He looked into the darkness but initially could not see anything. He thought it must be his eyes playing tricks on him so he looked away. When he looked back a second time he made out several figures standing in the shadows underneath one of the trees. To the right of the tree appeared to be tall figure of medium build. They appeared to be wearing a hooded cloak which went right down to the ground. To the left of the tree were two very short beings which looked about knee height. It appeared to Tim that the tall being was in charge and the two short ones were waiting to be ordered to do something. It was too dark to make out any details on the figures. The tall figure had one arm raised and was beckoning him with its finger, similar to how an adult would do with a child. Tim started at the figures a short while, then dismissed them and turned away. He thought maybe he was tired and having some sort of hallucination brought on by this, although he did not physically feel tired or else he would have gone to bed along with everyone else. The next thing he became aware of, he found himself standing in a clearing a short distance away from the campsite. He knew of the clearing as it was the best way to gain a view of the lake. He was looking across Ullswater to the South South East. On the far side of the lake he could see two glowing blue egg shaped objects. They appeared to be self-luminescent, and did not light up the surroundings. The objects were skimming through the air between the peaks of two mountains. They appeared to be about 60 feet in the air. They were travelling quite fast, at least 70 mph, and moved up and down in a wave like motion as they went. Perspective map of Ullswater showing the approximate location of Tim, and the two mountain peaks on the other side of the lake: 📷 Photograph of Ullswater in the direction the UFOs were seen, with the estimated route of the objects shown: 📷 Tim cannot remember anything else that took place that night. The following morning he awoke to find himself outside alongside the camp fire. He remembered both the beings by the tree and the glowing egg shaped objects. He went over to the tree where the beings had been but there were no footprints, so he did not mention it to anyone else. The whole incident seemed like a vivid dream. Incident Analysis The events that Tim remembers are very interesting indeed, and there are a number of aspects which suggest that he may have experienced contact, and possibly even abducted. He only saw the silhouettes of the beings but the details he did make out are important. Tim states that there was a tall being wearing what looked like a hooded cloak, and two very short beings. Many contactees have reported seeing hooded figures appear in their room prior to an abduction experience. Could it have been one of these beings? The very humanoid looking species known as the Nordics are often reported as wearing hooded robes, so perhaps it could have been a Nordic. The shorter beings could well have been two Grey beings. Greys are generally about 3-4 feet in height. The beings that Tim describes were very short indeed, no higher than 2 feet. However the height of Greys does tend to vary quite a lot so this cannot be put out of the question. Could the figures have been nothing more than some people playing a prank on Tim? This seems unlikely for a number of reasons. Tim says the area where they were camping was quite remote and nobody would have known they were there. If they were people joking around then two of the three would have to have been young children due to their very short height. It is highly improbable someone with two young kids would have been sneaking around the campsite late at night. Also why would they just stand there and beckon for Tim to approach, and then when he turned away just leave the area without doing anything else. If they wanted him to approach surely they would have spoken and asked him directly? We must also take into account the fact that it was at this point that Tim appears to have lost some time. If they were just people playing around then surely Tim would have recalled what happened next and just gone to sleep like normal? He certainly would not have gone wandering off away from camp to the clearing where he next found himself. After turning away from the figures, the next thing Tim remembers is overlooking the lake and seeing the UFOs. This suggests two things. Firstly it suggests that the two incidents were linked. And secondly it suggests that something else took place between the two, something which had been wiped from his conscious memory. It is very common for contactees to report missing time. The ETs have a way of blocking out memories of the experience, probably to reduce the trauma of the individual. The glowing egg-shaped objects that he remembers seeing are again very interesting. Due to their speed of movement I feel it is unlikely they were blue LED balloons, hot air balloons or other lit inflatables. Tim seems to be describing two fast moving, controlled solid objects. They were clearly not conventional aircraft or helicopters. UFOs often are seen to glow after dark, probably due to the energy field projected around them. Could this image of him standing in the clearing watching the UFOs be a fragmented memory which has returned to him? Tim has said that this feels like a vivid dream, and this is often the way that these memories can appear. Another possibility is that one or both of the incidents was nothing more than a dream. Perhaps the darkness combined with shadows cast by the firelight caused the illusion of figures standing nearby. Maybe the movement Tim sensed nearby was nothing more than an animal moving in the undergrowth. Perhaps he then dropped off by the fire and had a dream which happened to be of UFOs. Maybe both the beings and the UFOs were dreams. Tim certainly spent at least some of the night sleeping outside as this is where he found himself when he awoke in the morning. However it seems a little unlikely that he would first see unusual figures nearby which could be interpreted as ETs, and then following this have a vision of UFOs. I have recommended that Tim is regressed to see if any further information about the incident comes to light. There are many elements to this incident which suggest that something unusual took place, something perhaps involving ET contact. If Tim decides to be regressed at some point the results of this will be added to the report. Copyright Dave Hodrien 2011

Birmingham UFO Group Case Report Author: Dave Hodrien Originally forwarded by Richard Hall Release Date: 04/09/2011 For reasons of anonymity pseudonyms have been used The Red Sphere Returns? In April 1986, Lara went to Madame Tussauds in London with her sister. While she was there she saw something which seemed to trigger a sudden flashback to an experience she had forgotten about which had taken place during a night of the previous month. She remembered waking up to find that she was completely paralyzed and could only move her eyes. She could hear something moving around in the room. Her husband Joseph was lying in bed next to her but she could not move or shout to wake him up. She could feel something which appeared to be on the bed between her and him. Suddenly the whole room lit up in red light, which immediately frightened her. The next thing she remembers is waking up in the morning to the alarm clock like normal. On 13th June again Laura began to put on weight unexpectedly. Because of what had happened two years before, she decided to go to a doctor to get checked out. Sure enough she once again found that she was pregnant, this time by twelve weeks! Just as with her first son, she had not experienced any of the usual early signs of pregnancy. Also when she counted back the weeks she found that she must have become pregnant back in March, around the time that she had the paralysis incident with the red light. Unlike her first pregnancy, she never saw or sensed the silver triangular UFO. However during the pregnancy there were another few occasions where she awoke to find herself paralyzed. On none of these occasions did she see a red light, she would just drop back off to sleep. Her second son, Darren was born on 26th December 1986. Just as with Peter, he was completely healthy and normal in every way. He too has had experiences throughout his life but does not wish to speak about them with me. Some of what Laura described fits in with sleep paralysis. In this you awake to find you can only move your eyes. You can also hear strange noises or sense a presence in the room. However the fact that the room lit up bright red, and that this incident occurred around the time she was told she became pregnant tends suggests that once again she was abducted, taken aboard the red glowing sphere and her second son implanted in her. The pregnancy went similar to before, the only real difference being that the silver UFO was not seen this time for whatever reason. Perhaps Laura was paralyzed this time because of the fact she had fought back against the ETs on the previous occasion. They may have remembered how angry she had been and decided that it would be better if she could not hit out at them. Unfortunately we did not have enough time to cover this incident in the regression, although I feel that if we had then a similar story would have emerged. Laura may wish to be regressed again at some point in the future, if so then this may well be explored in more depth. A Mass Abduction On 3rd July 1988 Laura attended the “Hells Angels 10th Custom Bike Show”, a biker rally in Kent. She was there with her family. On the second evening of the rally about 10pm Laura went to use the portaloos. These were separated from the tents by a large area of grass. While she was in there she heard some kind of commotion going on outside, people shouting and running around. She assumed it was a fight. The next thing she became aware of she was waking up from a very vivid dream on Sunday morning. In this dream she had been in the middle of a huge crowd of people who were all screaming and running away from something. Everyone was running towards the road that ran alongside the field where the rally was taking place. Laura ran along with them. Everyone else seemed to be panicking but for some reason she felt calm. She saw a girl drop her doll and stop to pick it up. She quickly ran over and scooped the girl up, afraid she would be crushed under the stampede of people. She told her to forget about the doll and that she could get a new one later. The next thing she became aware of, she and all the other people were standing in a large round brightly lit room with white coloured walls. Sticking out of one wall was a white bench with a book on it. There was nothing else in the room at all, not even a visible doorway. Laura still had the little girl with her and so initially tried to locate the parents of the child. While she was doing so she noticed several people walking over to the bench and picking up and looking at the book. They would stare at it a moment then drop it again. She found the parents and left the girl with them. She then walked over to the bench, sat down, picked up the book and began to read it. She found that inside there was a picture at the top of every page but the wording was written in a strange language that looked almost like hieroglyphics. She thought to herself “That’s a shame, I would have loved to have read this but I don’t understand the writing”. At that moment the words on the pages seemed to change into English. Laura began reading the book. It told the story of the Draco, which since her regression has realised . It explained how due to an accident on their home planet they began to search the stars for a host species to mix DNA with and produce children who would be visually acceptable to the host, who they would then in time integrate with. Laura read the book cover to cover. While she was doing so no-one else interrupted her. Laura felt this was because they had already tried to read it and found they could not. After finishing the book, she stood up and told everyone else there “Don’t worry they are not going to hurt us, it explains everything in this book.” A door suddenly slid open in the wall of the room, and a Nordic being entered wearing white robes with gold and purple edging. He walked up to Laura and took the book from her. He then said to her “You were able to read the Book of Origins, therefore we do not need you.” This was the last thing she remembered from the dream. Soon after she returned home Laura drew the hieroglyphic symbols she remembered seeing in the book. A short while after, she was watching a historical TV programme which was discussing ancient Sumerian hieroglyphics which had been found. When the hieroglyphics were shown on screen Laura recognised them as looking extremely similar to the symbols she remembered. Weeks after the incident she could still remember the details of the dream extremely clearly, much more so than she would usually. She now started to wonder if it was something more than just a dream. She decided at this point to start looking more into ET contact. She went to the library and started to get out whatever books were available. As she read more into it, she began to realise how the incident at the bike rally, and her previous experiences fitted with the subject. She wondered whether a mass abduction had taken place at the rally. Many years later when she got access to the internet she took a look at some Sumerian hieroglyphic websites. On these sites it stated that linguists had little success in translating these symbols. Unfortunately Laura no longer has the drawings of the hieroglyphics that she made. Laura feels that a mass abduction took place at the bike rally, and that the dream she had experienced were her memories of this. It seems that something took place as she does not remember leaving the portaloo and returning to her tent, the last thing she remembers prior to the dream was hearing a commotion outside. It’s true she saw a Nordic in the dream, and found herself in a similar room to which she had been taken to in 1981. Also the book did seem to describe Reptilian beings and the possible reasons behind their activity on Earth. Laura is certain that at the time this incident took place she had very little knowledge of the ET contact subject. However these could well have been dreamt up due to her previous contact experiences, which she was not fully aware of consciously until her regression. There are parts of the dream which do not really make logical sense. Surely the ETs could not have wiped the mind of everyone at the entire bike rally? But they would have had to have done so or otherwise there would have been witnesses to the events that Laura remembered. I certainly believe that the ETs have the ability to block out memories from people’s minds. But to do this for hundreds of people across a wide area sounds far too unlikely. And supposing they did block out everyone’s minds of the experience, surely many others besides Laura would have also remembered aspects like a vivid dream? If this had happened it would surely have only been a matter of time before people started to realise that they had all had the same dream? Regarding what took place on the craft, again there is too many things which don’t add up. Surely if the bench and book was the only thing in the room, more than just a few people would have been interested in it. What were they all doing while Laura was granted the time to sit down and read the book cover to cover? Under such a scenario there would have been complete panic and everyone would have soon wanted to know what the book said. It seems unlikely to me that they would have left her uninterrupted to read it in this way. It also seems unlikely that this book, the “Book of Origins” as the Nordic referred to it, would have just been left out on a bench in the room. What purpose would this serve? And the very fact it was a book is an Earthly thing in itself. As you can see, I feel there are just too many loose ends with this particular incident, and I feel it was more than likely to have just been a dream brought on by her previous contact experiences. It is unsurprising that she would have dreams such as this, as although her experiences were not consciously remembered at the time, memories of them still existed in her subconscious. Possible Protection By the summer of 1989 Laura had left Joseph and moved into a flat on Crown Lane in Southgate, London. It was now that another strange event took place. The flat on Telford Road where they lived was on the 2nd floor. It was a very hot day and so she had opened the living room window. She was sitting opposite the window about 15 feet away, and dozed off because of the heat. Aerial map of Crown Lane: 📷 She awoke to see that Darren had managed to climb up onto the windowsill. As she opened her mouth to tell him to get down. Peter bumped him and he began to fall backwards out of the window. Laura somehow managed to catch him and pull him back inside then shut the window. This is a complete mystery to her as she was a good distance away from the window and still groggy from the heat. Could Laura have been assisted by the ETs so that Darren would not fall from the window? This is a possibility, but I feel it is just as likely that her adrenalin kicked in and she managed to run extremely fast across to the window without really thinking. In extreme circumstances people can do extreme things. For example there have been a number of reported incidents where people have lifted extremely heavy objects in order to save the life of others. However ET intervention cannot be completely ruled out. Contactees have reported being saved from harm on numerous occasions by un-natural forces. Surveillance Begins In August 1989 Laura was having financial difficulties and could not afford to get a birthday present for Peter. The situation felt desperate and she was so upset she burst into tears. A couple of hours later her father Douglas rang up. He informed her he had unexpectedly come into some money, wanted to share it with Laura and her sisters, and so had put £100 into her bank account. It seemed like an odd coincidence, yet was very welcome given the circumstances. A few months went by. Laura was then suddenly faced with a massive phone bill that she knew she would not be able to pay for. Later she would find out that this had been caused by squatters downstairs who had tapped into the phone line, but at the time she was not aware of this. Again she got very upset. One of her sons asked her why she was upset and she informed him of the bill. Several hours later her father once again rang up. He told her that one of his life insurance policies had just paid out, and that he had put £500 into her account. Laura remembered that this was the second time he had given her money directly after she had been upset about financial issues. At this point she still felt it was nothing more than coincidence. But the next time she was running low on money she decided to purposely speak out loud about this fact, and then sit back and see what happened. Douglas was actually away from home at the time. But sure enough, within hours Beth rang up and stated that another one of her father’s life insurance policies had matured and that they had put some money in her account. At this point Laura began to suspect that something was going on. It seemed that whenever she would mention that she was low on money, very soon afterwards one of her parents would ring up and say that they had some money for her. Also Laura noticed that other things said in the privacy of her own home would later be mentioned by them, and she was certain that she had not told anyone else. She became convinced that for whatever reason her father had set up bugs in her house and was monitoring what she said. Could this really have been taking place? How many coincidences can occur before it becomes something else entirely? It seems a very unusual thing to suggest, however there would be other events later which also pointed towards the possibility that the house was bugged. The Promise On a day in August 1990, Laura went round to visit her parents. At the time her father was working for the defence electronics company Marconi and spent long periods out on a site in Saudi Arabia. The company had lost the contract with Saudi Arabia and so gave him the option of either keeping his current job if he moved to Chelmsford, or accepting a new contract position within British Aerospace. Her father did not really know what to do so he decided to ask Laura what she thought. After Laura recommended he should accept the contract with British Aerospace, he started to walk away from her into the kitchen. He seemed agitated by something and was acting strange. He looked back at her and then away again, like he wanted to ask her something but didn't know if he should. Then he walked back over to her and out of the blue said "Tell me something, just out of curiosity, do you believe in UFOs and aliens?" Laura said that she believed them to be real and had been here for a long time. Douglas then asked her what she thought they were friendly or unfriendly. Laura replied that she thought they must be friendly or else they would have wiped us out a long time ago before we developed the weaponry systems we now possess. Then Douglas came out with a very strange question. He asked her "Well what if we are just food for them?" Laura said that she thought this was unlikely or more people would go missing. She said she’d never really thought about that prospect in much depth. Laura asked Douglas why he was asking her all of this. He just shrugged it off and said “No reason. Just popped into my head, thought I’d ask it”. Laura was still quite puzzled by the situation. Douglas began to walk back into the kitchen. But like before he stopped and then looked back at her. He then said "I need you to promise me something”. Laura replied “Ok, what?” Douglas said “I need you to promise me, on your life, that you will never ever under any circumstances go outside in the dark. Ever, not for any reason". Laura was extremely puzzled by this and asked him what he meant and why she should make that promise but he would not tell her, he just kept asking her again and again. He seemed very concerned by something. In the end she went along with what he asked and made the promise. Ever since that day Laura has tried to keep this promise when possible but obviously sometimes has to break it. She spoke to her father several times about the promise and the reason behind it, but he would never tell her what it was about, he would just ask if she had kept it. This incident is truly bizarre, and suggests that her father knew something more than he was letting on. He came out with the questions about UFOs completely randomly, there was nothing that had occurred beforehand to prompt his outburst. The fact that he asked her to make the promise directly after speaking about UFOs and aliens seems to suggest that it was in some way related to what had been said, and that he was frightened Laura would get attacked or abducted. But why would he think this? Was it just something he had read or seen which made him act in this way, or was there something more to it? Men In Black During the night of the same day her father had made her make the unusual promise, something else very strange occurred. It was about 2am and Laura was awoken by a noise. She started to listen and could hear movement coming from downstairs in the living room. Initially she thought one of her parents had got out of bed to get a drink, but then she overheard Beth whispering to Douglas saying that she could hear someone down there. Laura then heard Douglas get out of bed. She too got out of bed and walked to her bedroom door. As she did, Douglas appeared and said to her “Don’t worry, nothing to worry about, go back to bed, I’ll sort it out”. He then continued downstairs. Laura considered going back to bed as he asked, but something didn’t feel right. She was curious as to what was going on so decided to get up and go take a look. She began to creep down the stairs. As she descended she could hear Douglas talking to someone in a loud whisper, but could not hear exactly what was being said. She got half way down the stairs, at which point she had a view across the open plan living room and dining area. She could see her father in his pyjamas facing away from her. In front of him were several men in black suits. It was too dark to see their faces clearly. Her father was speaking quietly with the men. One of them must have noticed her on the stairs as he said something, as Douglas then turned around and told her to go back to bed. Laura asked who the men were and Douglas said it was nothing and could be easily sorted. Laura went back upstairs and lay down in bed, but remained awake. About an hour later she heard her father come back upstairs to bed but did not hear any other noises to indicate the men had left the house. The following morning she asked Douglas what the men wanted and also how they had got into the house. He denied all knowledge of what had taken place and told Laura she must have been dreaming. Laura told him that she knew it had taken place; she had walked down the stairs and seen what was going on. But Douglas still denied it happened! Later in the day Laura was chatting with Beth, and her mother told her that what she had witnessed had occurred on many occasions ever since Douglas had left his job in the military. In the fortnight that Laura was there for, she heard Douglas speaking with the men two other times, but unfortunately could never make out what was being said. At this point I should give you a bit of background information on Laura’s father’s job in the military. Due to confidentiality reasons I cannot reveal too much, but this information could be relevant so I have asked for Laura’s permission to include it. Laura’s father Douglas was in the military for 18 years between 1959 – 1977. He was stationed with 2nd Division Signals Regiment. However while exploring the internet Laura found information relating to the ACE High Communication System. This was a little known NATO radio communications network designed to be used as an early warning system. Her father never mentioned that he worked on this at all. However Laura found that all of the locations he had been posted at had been either on or very close to an Ace High Communications facility. It seems very unlikely that this would have been merely down to coincidence. The fact that her father had been seen speaking with these men ever since leaving the military suggests that this is what these visitations were linked to. If this is correct, then it supports the theory that Douglas had been working on some highly secretive projects and that he was being closely monitored. However there are some very unusual aspects to these events. How did the men get into the house in the first place? And why would they even have the need to do so? Surely if they were there to speak with Douglas they would just have knocked on the front door and spoken there instead and perhaps then asked to be invited in? Could the men have been searching for something and were then interrupted by her father going downstairs? If the incident only occurred once we could propose this was the case, however this was apparently a regular occurrence. It seemed that her father knew who the men were, and also appeared to be ok with them actually breaking into the house on numerous occasions. In the months following these incidents, Laura became aware that she was being monitored by similar men. On numerous occasions while out of the house she would notice men in dark suits who appeared to be following her or watching her from parked vehicles. She never approached these men or indicated to them that she was aware of their presence as she thought this would not really do much good and would only anger them. Laura also noticed that objects in her home would sometimes be moved or go missing completely for periods of time before suddenly inexplicably returning. On several occasions her first son asked her out of the blue "Mum who was that man who was standing at the bottom of my bed during the night?" Laura had no idea who the men were so could not answer him, but believed that he too was being monitored by them. Some contactees report having visitations by mysterious men in dark suits, commonly referred to as the Men In Black. These individuals are likely to be from the groups in charge of the ongoing cover up. They usually either intimidate the contactee and try to get them not to talk about their experiences, or they sometimes appear interested in their experiences as if they are trying to learn more about the ETs through them. It seems that after witnessing the men speaking with her father, they then became directly interested in her and possibly her sons. From then on they seemed to be directly keeping track of what she was up to. She has no idea if they continued to also visit her father but assumes that they did. Could they have really been monitoring her due to her contact experiences, and had an ongoing agreement with her father, perhaps relating in some way to his job? This is a possibility worth considering, especially if we take into account the promise that he made Laura take. Could the men have also been interested in her sons because of their direct link with Laura's experiences? However it seems very odd that they would come into her house and stand in her son's bedroom during the night, what would be the purpose of this? There is the possibility that the man that her son spoke of was not human but was ET, and that he was describing direct visitation experiences. Even if the man looked human this does not necessarily mean that this was the case - the ETs have on many occasions used a screen memory to hide their true appearance. The Light Bulb In 1995 Laura decided to move back to Sunderland. At this point activity seemed to die back down and she no longer noticed anyone following or monitoring her, at least at first. One evening in January 1997 she turned on the light in the children’s bedroom and immediately noticed a high pitched squealing sound coming from the bulb. Laura thought to herself “What the heck’s that?” She turned off the bulb and tried it again. The strange noise continued. Laura thought “Something’s not right here”. She put the light off and put the boys to bed in the dark. The following day Laura took the boys round to see her parents. While she was there she asked her father if he knew of anything which could make a light bulb make a high pitched whistling noise when you turn it on. Immediately she noticed the colour drain from his face. He asked her “Why’d you ask?” Laura informed him that it had taken place in the boy’s bedroom on the previous night. Her father responded with “Ahhh...right...hmmm...I’m driving you home tonight”. Laura agreed to this, but was puzzled by his reaction. That evening before they drove back home, her father asked if he could hold Laura’s keys for her. They arrived, and before the engine had barely stopped her father leapt out of the car, let himself into the house and ran inside. Laura and the boys followed closely behind. Laura headed upstairs. As she was heading up she heard a thump of something landing on the floor. She entered the bedroom and was just in time to see her father bend down, pick up something off the floor and put it in his pocket. He held the light bulb in his other hand. He then reached up and put the light bulb back into place. Laura asked him “What was that?” Her father replied “What was what?” “What you just put in your pocket.” “I never put anything in my pocket.” “I’ve just seen you. You bent down, picked something up and put it in your pocket.” “No, you’re seeing things. I didn’t bend down, I just checked the light and the bulb had come loose. Try it now.” Laura tried the light again and it worked fine. Her father soon headed back home without giving Laura any adequate explanation for the strange noise or the object which had clearly dropped out of the socket. Laura feels that the object that fell out was a listening device that had gone wrong in some way. Considering the previous incidents including the numerous times her father had seemed to know what she was saying, and the monitoring by the men in suits, this is a certainly plausible. If it was such a device this would explain why her father was so rushed, and why he would not show Laura what he had put in his pocket. If it was such a device, who was really responsible for it and why was it there? Was her father working with the mysterious men to assist them with monitoring her? Had the men put it there against his knowledge, and the noise was the first indication of this? Or had he put the device there to protect his daughter, so that if someone tried to interfere with her he would be aware of it? Unfortunately we are unlikely to ever know the answers to these important questions. The Black Sphere & Pet Mutilation In 1995 Laura bought a pet dog, and in March 1999 also bought two Russian hamsters. The hamsters lived in a cage in the living room close to the back door of the property. Most evenings Laura would open the back door and let the dog out into the back garden to run around a bit. On the evening of 26th April 1999 at 11.30pm she opened the door like usual. But rather than run outside the dog stayed inside staring out of the open doorway. He seemed scared to go out into the garden. In the end Laura's first son Peter went outside knowing that the dog would follow him. Sure enough the dog did then go outside, but remained close to him and still appeared un-nerved. Peter began to run round the garden, with the dog following him. He was down near the far left corner of the garden when he suddenly heard a high pitched buzzing noise. He looked down and saw a small black coloured floating sphere. The noise appeared to be emanating from this object. It was hovering down by his knees. Then the sphere rose upward, circling his body several times before flying away at a fast speed to the South over the top of the garden fence! Her son was absolutely shocked and ran back inside the house, closely followed by the dog. He told Laura what had happened. Photograph of the garden showing the location where the black sphere appeared: 📷 Later everyone went to bed like usual. In the morning when Laura let the dog out again, he still seemed a little wary but in the end headed outside. When she let him back in, he ran straight over to the hamsters cage. Laura felt this was strange as it was something the dog would not normally do. She walked over and was greeted by a nasty surprise. One of the two hamsters was dead. It was lying on its side and appeared to be crushed flat. It looked like it had been both burnt and drained of blood. The fur on the upper side of the animal was singed. Laura thought to herself “Oh my god, what’s happened here, what am I going to tell the boys?” At that moment Peter came downstairs and saw what was going on. He asked Laura “What’s happened to my hamster?” Of course Laura did not have an explanation. When she had a closer look at it she found that half its head appeared to be missing like it had been completely removed. The other hamster was cowering at the back of the cage and looked absolutely terrified. The family were of course deeply upset by what had happened. Laura assumed that the death of the hamster was related to the black sphere that had been seen in the garden less than 12 hours earlier, and that it had later returned to the property and carried out the deed. Later in the day she bought a newspaper and in it read an article that stated that a giant UFO the size of a battleship had been captured on radar moving over Yorkshire. She felt that the black sphere her son had seen must have been linked to this UFO. A few weeks after this incident, large lumps appeared all over the body of the other hamster. Laura took it to the vets and when the vet saw it he was shocked by its appearance. He said that he had never seen anything like it. He took a biopsy of one of the lumps. A week later when the results came back he said to Laura “We’ve got the biopsy results, but I don’t really know what to tell you.” When she asked what he meant by this he replied “Well, the lumps are cancer, but it’s a cancer I’ve never seen before. I’ve been a vet for 25 years and never in my entire career have I ever seen anything like this. I don’t know if it’s treatable or not treatable.” He then proceeded to tell her that he had shown it to numerous colleagues and they had never seen it before either. For a while the vet tried prescribing various medications, but the lumps just got worse. In the end Laura decided to get it put down. Unfortunately she did not take any photographs of either hamster, and does not have any official documents from the vet. It is unknown whether he sent the dead hamster away for further testing. It is certainly a possibility that the hamster found dead had been mutilated by the black sphere or another UFO. The hamsters were inside their cage, and the injuries were clearly un-natural, so the only other explanation would be that someone killed the hamster in that way on purpose. Laura's sons loved the hamsters so does not believe that one of them was responsible. It is unlikely someone sneaked into the house and killed one of the two hamsters for no apparent reason. I believe that the animal mutilation phenomenon is directly linked with UFOs. Some of the injuries the hamster sustained do fit in with this theory. Quite often the body is drained of blood, and sometimes appears to have been burnt. Also flesh is often removed from various places on the animal's body, including parts of the face. It seems like too much of a coincidence that the other hamster developed the lumps soon after the initial incident. Could they have been caused by the hamster being in close proximity to a source of radiation or other unusual energy? Energy being given off by the sphere or whatever mutilated the other hamster? This does seem like a plausible explanation for what took place. The Awakening At some point after April 1998 (precise date unknown), Laura had another strange incident occur during the night. She suddenly awoke in the dark, and before she had a chance to look around she felt a surge like electricity through her body and felt herself shaking on the bed. She tried to call out and found she could not. This frightened her and she thought to herself “I don’t like this, what’s happening?” At that moment she heard a voice in her head respond to her question. The voice sounded male. It said to her “Don’t worry it’s just the awakening, it will be over soon.” Laura responded by questioning the voice as to what “the awakening” meant but the voice did not speak to her again. This was the last thing she remembered taking place. In the morning Laura did not tell anyone what had happened as she thought it would sound crazy. To this day she wonders what “the awakening” meant, and how it was related to her other contact experiences. Orbs In August 2003 Peter’s friend Mike came round to stay at their home for a fortnight. On numerous occasions he was disrespectful to Laura and was making condescending remarks. This steadily made Laura more and more angry as the days went on. On the 10th day he criticised Laura and started laughing, and her sons joined in too. Laura lost her temper completely, she was furious. She ordered Mike and her sons to join her in the living room. She then shouted at them “Sit down, shut up, and don’t any of you say a word until I have finished saying what I am about to say”. Laura was shaking with anger. She started telling them how disgusted she was with their behaviour. Then without warning, Laura witnessed something extremely unusual. She saw three small white glowing orbs enter the room through the closed window. They were each about 2 inches in diameter. The orbs floated slowly over and settled above each of the boys heads. Before she could say anything, her son Darren spoke up, asking if everyone could see what he was seeing. Everyone said that they could. It was now that they realised that there were in fact four orbs, but everyone in the room could only see the orbs over everyone else’s heads not their own. Then for some unknown reason they all began to laugh uncontrollably! Laura says this went on for up to 10 minutes. They had no idea what was so funny or why they were laughing so much. After this time they managed to stop laughing, and the boys then apologised for their behaviour. At this point they all watched as the orbs floated back out of the room through the window from where they had come. Modern photograph of the living room where the incident took place: 📷 This is truly a bizarre incident. It seems very unlikely that everyone in the room was having the same hallucination, so we must therefore assume that it really took place. The orbs seemed to be a form of energy rather than solid objects. Could this have been an ET manifestation of some kind? Perhaps they were observing what was taking place and picking up on the strong emotions in the room. Perhaps they then actively chose to influence these emotions, which is why everyone stopped arguing and started laughing. Or could these orbs have been some sort of psychic energy that Laura herself had manifested in the room? This seems less likely due to the fact that the orbs were seen to fly in from outside not appear around Laura. Also the fact that each person could not see the orb which came to hover over their own head, only the three other orbs, does suggest that they were an outside force interacting with everyone present and not specifically linked with one individual. This incident remains an intriguing mystery. Laura has never seen these orbs appear again, even when she has got very angry on other occasions. Orbs are often reported by contactees, usually glowing white in colour, which is another sign that they were related to ET contact. Unfortunately I cannot speak to Laura's son or his friend about the experience, so at present we only have Laura's personal testimony to go on. Reptilian Visitation One night in October 2003 Laura experienced a visitation by a Reptilian, perhaps the same one she had seen aboard the red sphere. She awoke during the night. She does not know what time as she did not check the clock. The room was quite dark but Laura would always leave the hall light on and the door open so there was enough light to partially see. On her bedside table was a key-ring which had been given to her by someone a while before. The key-ring is attached to a clear plastic ball containing a green coloured Grey's head. The fact that it has an alien head inside is coincidental; she was not given it because of her experiences. Below is a photo of this key-ring: 📷 The key-ring was lying at eye level alongside her. When she opened her eyes she saw a dark green scaly hand in the process of picking it up. The hand had three fingers and a thumb, and on the end of each was a pointed black coloured claw. The hand began to lift, and as it did she followed it upward with her eyes, slowly moving her sight along the arm until she saw the being standing before her. Remember that prior to her regression, Laura assumed that this was the first time she had seen the being. She did not recognise it, as her previous encounters with it had been blocked out of her mind. The Reptilian was holding up the key-ring close to its face and staring at it. It had a oval shaped head with a prominent brow, and a rounded snout that only protruded a short distance from its face. It had wide and thin orange eyes with black vertical pupils. Its mouth was wide and went around its face, but was closed. No teeth were visible. It had two nostrils, but no ear holes were noticeable. The being appeared to be naked. It was quite muscular, especially in the upper arms and thighs. Laura could not see if it had a tail or not. Witness drawing of the Reptilian (she found it hard to draw accurately): 📷 Obviously the presence of the being standing alongside her bed was very shocking. As soon as she set eyes on it, Laura jumped upward to get out of bed and run away. At this moment the Reptilian lifted its hand and put it on her forehead. When it did this she immediately blacked out. The next thing she realised, she was waking up in the morning as usual. I find it fascinating that the Reptilian was picking up and looking at the key-ring containing the Grey's head. From Laura's experiences it is clear that the Greys, Nordics and Reptilians appear to be working together towards a common aim. The Reptilian more than likely recognised the face in the key-ring and was interested in it for this reason. The way in which Laura blacked out when the being touched her has been reported many times by contactees, including other cases I have directly investigated. It also links back to what she remembered during the regression. During the red sphere abduction Laura tried to hit out at the Reptilian and it put its hand up which somehow stopped her from getting any closer to it. It seems that the being projected a force of some kind through its hand. It is likely that Laura was abducted after she blacked out, and that the memories of what happened were once again blanked out from her mind. If she has any future regressions this would certainly be a good incident to regress her back to. Sadly we did not ask Laura about this incident during her regression because other incidents took priority. Note that once again, similar to her earlier experiences, Laura was able to freely move and was not paralyzed in any way. Therefore sleep paralysis can be disregarded as an explanation for the incident. Signs Of A Threat Note: Certain details of this section have been left out due to personal reasons. From December 2004 onwards, Laura’s father Douglas began to show signs that he was frightened by someone or something. In the presence of Laura’s brother he would often come out with statements such like “If he thinks I’m going to be afraid of him he’s got another thing coming!” Whenever Laura or her brother quizzed him, they could never get him to say exactly who he was referring to. He would often ring Laura and say to her “I don’t know what to do.I don’t want to leave your mother but I don’t have a choice”. When Laura asked him what he meant by this he would not say and just said not to worry about it. In early 2005 Douglas changed his will. Previously it had simply stated that if he died the money would go to his wife, if she died it would go to his children, and if they died then it would go to their children. However he now added in some additional clauses. These stated that if his wife was to die within a year of him, the money would be held in a trust fund for five years, and if his children were to die within a year of his wife, then again the money would be held in a trust fund for five years. It seemed to Laura that he was worried about dying and also worried for the safety of his family. Two weeks after changing his will, Douglas fell down the stairs at his home. Laura’s mother Beth witnessed what happened and said that he had walked upstairs, then suddenly shouted something. She then saw him fly backwards, hit the wall and then fall down to the base of the stairs. It seemed like he had been forcefully pushed rather than merely fell. He was rushed to hospital and at first appeared to be recovering. However two days later he suffered numerous heart attacks and died. Laura and other members of her family believe that rather than accidentally die, he was deliberately taken out of the picture. Paranormal Activity Laura and her partner Graham appear to be experiencing ongoing paranormal activity around their home. When Laura initially moved into the house, she was informed that the property was haunted by two ghosts named Tom and Mary. There have been many incidents where objects have been moved or vanish for a while before mysteriously re-appearing. They have never witnessed objects being moved around but have heard them on numerous occasions. Several times a walking stick placed just inside the front door has been thrown down the length of the hall way. They have heard the noise and when they have gone to check it is found near the entrance to the living room. On one occasion in 2009 Graham came downstairs to use the toilet during the night. When he opened the door to exit the bathroom, the ironing board, which was stored in the hallway opposite the door, flew directly at him like it had been physically thrown. Numerous times they have heard footsteps walking up the stairs while they are in the living room. When they have gone and checked there is of course nobody there. On other occasions both Laura and Graham have felt something invisible touch or physically push them. This has occurred on the stairs, in the kitchen and in the bathroom while showering. Often when Laura has woken up she has found scratch marks or bruises on her. She feels that these are down to malicious ghost activity rather than ET related. Several times Laura has awoken in the middle of the night to see what looks like smoke coming under the bedroom door, even though there is no fireplace in the house. There is no smell associated with this, and when she has gone to check there is nothing there. Prior to my visit, Laura put some of these incidents down to ongoing surveillance. However I feel it is more likely to be activity of a supernatural nature, as there would be no reason for individuals to enter their house and move or throw objects around. If surveillance of Laura does indeed continue, then it would more than likely be discreet. Many contactees report experiencing paranormal activity in their proximity. It occurs so regularly that there is clearly a link between the two, though exactly why is not really known. Some theorise that contactees gain heightened awareness through their experiences, and this means they are more likely to detect such activity. Perhaps this is further evidence that Laura is experiencing contact. However it is not just being experienced by Laura, her partner has also witnessed these events. Anger Manifestation Laura says that sometimes when she gets very angry, electrical devices can go wrong or even explode. This does not happen all the time, and did not appear to happen when we visited and she became angered at the ETs during her regression (I’m grateful of this as this would have ruined the audio recordings or photos I took). The incidents usually seem to start with a loud buzzing noise followed by a flash of blue light. These only seem to be detectable by Laura. After these usual signs electrics in the area tend to malfunction. Laura has provided me with several examples of when this has occurred. In April 2000 Peter invited his friend Richard over to the house. Laura went into the kitchen to make a cup of tea. While she was there she overheard Peter speaking to Richard, telling him that he could not help himself to Laura’s cigarettes without asking. Rather than agree with this, Richard ignored him and took one anyway, which got Laura extremely angry. While she was showing him out of the house, suddenly she heard the loud buzzing noise and saw the flash of light. A few seconds later there was a loud bang as the hallway light bulb exploded. This was immediately followed by a smaller bang as the lighter in Richards pocket also blew! In 2001 Laura was having a particularly bad day. She decided to get a cup of coffee and try to calm down, but when she went into the living room she found out that the dog had urinated on the carpet and the cat had knocked over one of her ornaments and smashed it. As she started to clear up the mess, again she heard the buzzing noise and saw the light flash, and a moment later a bang sound came from her Sky box and smoke started to pour from it. On 29th June 2011 Laura was arguing with Graham. She began to hear the buzzing sound so went out to the front of the house to calm down and have a cigarette. But Graham followed her out there to continue the argument and at this point she lost her temper. She heard the familiar noise and saw the flash of light but nothing seemed to occur. She finished her smoke and went back inside to use the computer. However when she tried it she found that the internet was down. She tried to ring her Internet provider but then found that the phone line was down too. She got hold of them by mobile phone and they sent an engineer out to fix the issues. He inspected the wiring and then asked Laura if there had been any recent thunderstorms, as the wires looked like they had been struck by lightning. Laura believes that it was her anger which had destroyed the phone line cable. These incidents are interesting and do suggest that Laura’s anger is somehow manifesting itself in such a way which causes electrical equipment to malfunction. I have heard similar things off numerous other contactees, so this is does seem to be a repeating aspect possibly linked with contact. The fact that the incidents begin in the same way every time is intriguing and seem to suggest that something physical is occurring. Could it really be just a coincidence that the electrical devices in these experiences have broken at those precise times? I feel that this has occurred too many times for this to be the case. Humming Sound Ever since January 2007 Laura has heard a strange low frequency humming sound while in her own home. Others including her husband cannot hear the noise, and neither myself or Rob could when we visited her. Laura is certain it is not tinnitus as she only hears it in her home, nowhere else. When Rob regressed Laura, the humming noise seemed to vanish for a while. Laura was thrilled by this and felt that the regression had somehow cured her, however after several hours it returned. Due to the fact that Laura only hears it in her home, I feel that it is probably being caused by a nearby electrical generator or other similar device, rather than being directly related to contact. Perhaps Laura has heightened senses because of her contact experiences, and this is why she can hear the sound but no-one else seems to be able to. It is possible that the relaxed state she was in after the regression meant that for a time she could not hear it, but then after a while she returned to normal. Revelations On 31st October 1964 Laura suffered 3rd degree burns in an accident. Her father was also burnt on his hands while saving her life. He was due to be posted in Cyprus but because of this injury he was unable to go. Since we went to visit, Laura had been thinking back to this accident. She wondered whether it had not been an accident at all – whether it had occurred on purpose to prevent her father from going to Cyprus. On 7th May 2011, two weeks after I and Rob visited Laura, she awoke at 3.15am to the sense of a presence in the room. She doesn’t remember actually being taken, but she then immediately found herself in a large circular white walled room, similar to the one she had been taken to back in 1981. The Grey who accompanied her during the red sphere incident was standing in front of her. The Grey then began to speak to Laura telepathically. It told her that it was aware she had been thinking about the accident a lot recently, and that it would offer her the chance to know the truth so she could continue in her mission. It did not explain to her what it meant by this. It then informed her that it had been her guide and had been with her ever since she was a baby. It said he had caused the accident to prevent her father from going to Cyprus, because if he had done he would have died there, and they didn’t want that to happen. The Grey then touched Laura’s hand. Immediately she began to see a vision of the events surrounding the accident. It was very emotional watching it take place again. Laura could sense the Grey’s sadness at having to harm her. It told her that it didn’t want to harm her, but this was the only way that her father would have been prevented from going to Cyprus. It then told her that she has strong healing abilities that she needs to develop. It was because of these abilities that they had chosen Laura rather than another member of her family – they were aware that she would naturally heal quickly. It informed her that while she had been in hospital they had taken her numerous times to monitor this healing and minimise the pain of her injuries. It then said that from now on she would remember all of her visits with it and the other beings it works with, except for the travelling too and from the craft as it was aware that this part frightened her. Laura then found herself lying awake in bed. She was very emotional, but also very happy that she had communicated directly with the Grey, and now knew the reason behind the accident. This is an interesting experience, and considering her surroundings and who she met with there is certainly the possibility that Laura was abducted again. That said, we cannot rule out the possibility that this was just a vivid dream brought on by her recent interview and regression combined with her thoughts about the accident. The experience occurred while she was lying down in bed in the middle of the night, and there appears to have been no physical visitation by the Grey, she just saw it on board the craft. I also question the logic of the Grey when it informed Laura that the only way to stop her father going to Cyprus was to give her some very nasty burns in an accident. Surely there would have been alternatives to this, such as directly manipulating the mind of her father so he would refuse to go? However Laura says that this does make sense. If her father had refused to go he would have been charged with insubordination. He would have been locked up for a while and then on his release would have been forced to go wherever they decided. If he had been harmed instead of her then he would have been given medical discharge which would have meant the end of his career. The ETs injured one of the children as they wouldn’t know how to save themselves, so he would indirectly also be injured. Taking these things into consideration, Laura is convinced that the ETs were responsible for what took place. Glowing UFO Sighting Early on the morning of 12th June both Laura and her partner Graham had another UFO sighting. It was around 1am. Graham had gone outside for a cigarette and was standing outside the front door of the house. Suddenly something caught his eye in the sky off to his right to the East. He saw a glowing white light moving slowly across the sky. At first he thought it was a helicopter. But then suddenly it began zipping side to side extremely fast! He called Laura outside to come and see. By the time she had got out there, the light was hovering completely still in the sky. It remained motionless for 3-4 minutes. Then it began to ascend vertically, before descending at a diagonal to the left and then heading off in a Northern direction. They watched it until it had vanished from sight. Witness drawing of their view of the UFO: 📷 Once it had gone, Graham said out loud “I wish it would come back, I want to see it again.” At this moment it suddenly reappeared close to its original position. It then began moving in many different directions for about 2 minutes at a slow speed. After this time it moved away to the East slowly and got smaller and smaller until it had gone. After discussing what they’d just seen, Laura and Graham went to bed at 1.30am. As soon as they turned out the bedroom light, they both saw what appeared to be small black orbs moving around in the air very rapidly over by the window. Laura states that Graham began to get frightened, and at this point they immediately vanished. Witness drawing of the black orbs: 📷 The light that Graham and Laura saw is interesting. Of course unidentified lights in the sky are often seen after dark, however the movements that Graham saw the object perform certainly sound out of the ordinary. When the object reappeared, the movements could easily be put down to a helicopter, but considering the object had just been seen and it looked identical we can assume it was the same object. The movements certainly sound like they were a controlled object of some kind rather than an LED balloon or other glowing inflatable drifting in air currents. If the object was a genuine ET craft, it does not appear to be directly related to Laura’s contact in any way. It was seen at a distance and was initially observed by Graham not by her. The black orbs seen are very unusual. The fact that both witnesses could see them shows that they were definitely present in the room. It seems unlikely to me that they were just a trick of the light because Laura and Graham sleep in that room every night, but have never seen them before. Perhaps these were a manifestation of some kind linked with Laura’s contact experiences. If so then was it just a coincidence that they saw these only half an hour after witnessing a UFO? Or is this evidence that the two incidents were in some way related? Conclusion This is an absolutely stunning case of ET contact. Laura has had some truly life changing experiences, including numerous visitations, abductions, and of course the probable implantation of one or both of her sons. Some of the incidents that have occurred have been partially blocked out, but we were able to retrieve these missing memories via hypnotic regression. I believe that what was uncovered actually took place. Many of the aspects that Laura described fit with other known contact cases, and also filled in the gaps with what she was consciously aware of. The involvement of her first son, and probable involvement of her second son of course makes this case extremely personal. Laura already suspected that they were somehow linked to her experiences even before we began to discuss her case or regress her. If what she remembered under regression actually took place, it has many implications and opens up many more questions. Are her sons different in some way? For what reason was Laura implanted with them? Are the ETs keeping watch over them, as they appear to have done during Laura’s first pregnancy? It is a shame that neither of them are interested in speaking with me, as Laura has informed me that they too have had experiences. The bizarre incidents involving her father right up until his death are fascinating, and do suggest that Laura was under surveillance. Her father’s military background could have been partially responsible, but the sudden questioning on UFOs and promise that her father made are important and cannot be ignored. Was he aware of her experiences and how they related to her sons? Was he somehow involved with ongoing surveillance of his own daughter? Perhaps this surveillance has continued after his death. The most recent incident with the Grey suggests that she may well have further contact experiences going forward, and also suggests that she has gained a level of trust with the ETs that many contactees do not. This is backed up by the fact that she has not been paralyzed during the majority of her experiences. She also has spoken directly with the ETs on numerous occasions, again something which quite often does not take place. If Laura decides to keep in touch with me, this report will be updated with any further incidents she experiences. Copyright Dave Hodrien 2011

Birmingham UFO Group Report Author: Dave Hodrien Originally forwarded by Richard Hall Release Date: 04/09/2011 For reasons of anonymity pseudonyms have been used Introduction Most cases of ET contact focus on one or two incidents which have taken place. But sometimes an individual can experience many different fascinating events from early in their life. This is the case with Laura, a mother and married lady from Sheffield. Her experiences, which go right back to her childhood, are both very interesting and have some astounding implications. There are certain events which have taken place that have forced her to consider the extent to which contact with these beings is occurring. Not only do her experiences affect her, but her sons are also clearly involved. There also appears to have been ongoing monitoring from unknown parties, and a military connection involving her late father. Read on and all will become clear... The Investigation Laura first got in touch with me on 6th April 2011 via Richard Hall’s website Richplanet.net. After initially speaking directly with Richard over the phone, she then spoke with me about some of her experiences. It immediately became clear to me the extent that these experiences had impacted on her life, and I soon decided it would require a direct visit to discuss everything in enough depth. I also felt that some of her experiences warranted a hypnotic regression as they contained missing memories and lost time. On Sunday 23rd April, I and hypnotherapist Rob Tudge (who until recently assisted me with cases involving contact) drove on up to Sheffield to meet with Laura and her husband Graham at their house. After going over Laura’s experiences in much more detail, including some events she had not mentioned before, Rob then regressed her, focusing on two of her most fascinating experiences. The transcript of this regression can be read later in the report. We also took some relevant location photos. Since our visit, Laura has had other experiences including another UFO sighting that her husband also witnessed. There are other experiences which no doubt warrant a second regression, so this may be sorted out at some point in the near future. The Watchers Since an early age, Laura has regularly felt like she is being observed by an invisible presence. Sometimes this feeling of a presence arrives and leaves with a flash of white light. When she first started feeling these things she was frightened and told her mother Beth. She told her to stop being silly, and that there was no such thing as invisible people. Soon afterwards they went round to see her grandfather. While there Beth told him what Laura had said. When he was alone with Laura he told her that they were nothing to be afraid of, and that he had felt them too at times, and seen the flashes of light. He taught Laura to look for a shimmering effect in the air which would signify their presence. He called them “The Watchers”. From then on she would sometimes be able to see this effect in the air and knew that “The Watchers” were there. This would generally occur when the presence remained for a long period of time. An area about 2 feet wide by 6 feet high would begin to shimmer, similar to a heat haze. However often the presence would not be there for very long, perhaps only several seconds. Occasionally Laura has noticed her pet cat acting strangely and interacting with the presence by either pawing at the air or arching its back and hissing. Contactees often report feeling an invisible presence watching over them. This perhaps indicates ongoing ET interaction throughout their life. However it is not just Laura who feels this presence, her grandfather also did. Does this mean that he too was a contactee? Possibly, but perhaps it is related to a haunting rather than being linked with the ETs. Shadow Beings As well as regularly experiencing what she refers to as The Watchers, Laura also sometimes sees what she refers to as “Shadow Beings”. It was again her grandfather who alerted her to the reality of these entities. They are dark humanoid forms that appear to possess intelligence. They are semi-transparent like a shadow being cast on a surface. They move very fluidly but walk rather than float. These beings only tend to appear when she is feeling upset, so are clearly linked to this emotion for whatever reason. They do not always appear, only sometimes. The entity often has a calming effect on her and will remain until her anger has subsided. These shadow-like entities have been reported by many people before, and are generally given the name Shadow Beings or Shadow People. They have often been seen by contactees while in their home, and possibly have an ET link. However like The Watchers they may have a ghostly explanation. Perhaps it is the heightened senses of these contactees that causes them to be seen. Psychic Abilities Like many contactees, Laura claims to have psychic abilities, including a sixth sense which allows her to detect and see ghosts, as well as the other strange entities described earlier in this report. She also has sometimes has premonitions which come to her in the form of dreams. In 1976 when she was 15 years old she had a nightmare where she was at school with her friend. It was PE and their teacher allowed them to go on a cross country run on their own as they were not very good at hockey. The route they would usually take had a fork in the path. The right fork would take them along the side of a large corn field; the left would go around the field and take 10 minutes longer. In the nightmare they approached the fork in the path. Her friend wanted to take the right fork but Laura was apprehensive as she could see a gang of men at the bottom of the path. In the end her friend persuaded her to take the right fork. As they approached the men, they suddenly grabbed hold of them, dragged them into the corn field and assaulted them. At this moment Laura awoke. She was very distressed and was sweating. Later in the day during PE, exactly like in the nightmare, the teacher came to Laura and her friend and said they could do a cross country run instead of play hockey. Laura immediately recognised that it was the same thing to what she had dreamed. She was reluctant to go but did as she was told. They reached the fork in the path, and sure enough there was the group of men exactly like she remembered. She told her friend about the nightmare and persuaded her to take the left fork in the path instead. When they approached the school, their PE teacher came running out and said “Thank God you’re both safe, the police have just arrested five men at the bottom of the corn field for gang raping a young girl two days ago!” It appeared that Laura’s dream had stopped the same thing happening to her and her friend. In 1981 Laura worked as a barmaid. She used to walk to her workplace every evening for her shift which lasted from 7-12pm. She would have to walk across a crossroads on her way to work. One night she had a dream where she was crossing this crossroads when suddenly a car came skidding round the corner, jumped the lights and crashed into her, dragging her along the road. For the next six months Laura was extra careful when crossing the crossroads because she felt that her dream was going to come true. However nothing happened and in the end she decided that it had just been a dream and nothing more. A short time afterwards she was running late one morning and was in a rush. She was about to step out onto the road when she suddenly heard someone call her name. She turned around but couldn’t see anyone. She turned back and was about to start walking when again she heard her name being called. Puzzled, she turned round a second time, but there was still nobody in sight. She began to step out into the road when suddenly a car came screeching round the corner and drove extremely fast past her. If she had not heard the voice calling her, Laura feels that she would have been in the road and would have got hit, just like what happened in the dream. She would later find out that the occupants of the car had burgled the casino near to her workplace. In August 1995 Laura moved from London to a house back in Sunderland. Her mother had found her this property and recommended it to her. When Laura asked her mother about the house, Beth informed her that it was a semi-detached two bedroom house with a red front door and central heating. That night Laura had a dream in which she was in front of a blue doored house. She went inside and explored the property. In the morning when Laura got her sons up, she found out of Peter that he had experienced the same dream! He told her about the dream he had during the night, and it matched her own. About a week later they visited the house for the first time. Laura was amazed when it was what she had seen in the dream. Her mother had been incorrect about the colour of the front door. All the details inside the house were exactly as she remembered. These are just several examples of the premonitions that Laura has had throughout her life. It certainly appears that sometimes she dreams about certain events taking place, and that as a result she is then able to stop these events from happening. The second incident described also has an aspect of protection to it. Could the voice that she heard have come from an ET? If it did then it seems that the ETs were protecting Laura from harm, as without the voice calling her she would probably have been hit by the car. It is fascinating that the premonition about the house was experienced by both Laura and her son. This suggests a psychic link between the two of them. We can only speculate as to why this dream occurred in the first place. Unlike her other premonitions this did not seem to have an element of danger to it, it was just an exploration of the new house. Initial Abduction The first ET-related experience that Laura can remember took place in September 1981. Back then she shared a house with her boyfriend on Cleveland Road, High Barnes, Sunderland. Her mother Beth and two sisters Julia and Carol also lived in the area on Marcross Drive in the Moorside Estate. On the day of the incident, she had been round Beth’s house helping to decorate. In the evening her younger sister Carol gave her a lift. It was a pleasant and calm evening. Laura and her boyfriend went to bed about 11.30pm. During the night she had what seemed like a very vivid dream. She found herself down Barnes Park near to her home. She was on a bridge that overlooked the park, and was walking in the direction of her house. Aerial map of Barnes Park showing the approximate location of Laura's house on Cleveland Road, and arrows showing where Laura was in the dream and direction she was walking: 📷 Modern photograph of the location (The bridge got replaced with a road in 2009): 📷 It was night-time and quite dark. She was clothed in her normal daytime wear. About half way across the bridge suddenly the sky above her lit up a glowing bright white. The light was so bright that it made it seem like it was daylight all around. She thought to herself how odd this seemed as it could not have changed to daylight that quickly. Then she began to feel afraid of the light, and thought that she had better get back home as quickly as possible. This was the last thing she remembered. In the morning when Laura awoke it was pouring with heavy rain outside. She could remember the details of the strange dream described above. She got out of bed and went to get dressed. She would always leave her daytime wear neatly folded at the base of the bed. However the clothes were now lying in a crumpled heap. When she picked them up she was also puzzled to find that they were soaking wet! It was clear that during the night she had been outside in them, though she could not remember doing so and was not prone to sleepwalking. She then thought back to the dream and wondered if there was more to it. She did not dwell on what had happened for too long, and soon put a different set of clothes on and went about her day. Regression Transcript Part One Laura has had many fascinating experiences, but we only had enough time to cover a couple of them in the regression. The incident with the wet clothes was one of the most intriguing. It was obvious something had genuinely taken place. Also Laura had recollection of being outside and seeing a bright light above her in the sky. Both I and her felt this was possibly an abduction experience and that most of the memories of what had occurred had been blocked out. As you will see in the transcript, this turned out to be the case. The regression went extremely well and Laura had a near full recollection of what took place. What she divulged completely explained why she had awoke to find her clothing wet and in a heap, why she remembered being down the park and the source of the brightly glowing light. Below is the transcript of the first part of the regression. The second part can be found later in this report: R: Just breathe and put your head back. Allow any tension you have in your neck just to dissipate. As you exhale just let it go. And again. And the next time your shoulders, as you exhale allow the tension to drop out of your shoulders. And as you become more and more relaxed, allow your arms to go just where they want to. That’s fine, that’s great. And just continue to relax with each breath. And allow the muscles across your forehead to let go, relax. And the tiny muscles around your eyes, as you exhale so they just let go, relax. That’s good, that’s fine. Becoming more and more comfortable with each breath. That’s fine, that’s good. Calm, comfortable and relaxed. And the muscles of your upper back, and your middle back, and your lower back, as you exhale so they let go. That’s good. Your stomach muscles, your thigh muscles, as you exhale, let go. And your calf muscles, and the muscles of your legs, just let go and relax. That’s great, that’s just fine. So, I’ll ask you to imagine yourself at the top of ten steps. At the bottom of the ten steps there’s a huge wooden door. You’re looking down at that huge wooden door. But before you make your way down the steps I’ll ask you to imagine a golden bubble of protection around you. It’s above your head, and below your feet. If you stretched your hands out left and right, you wouldn’t be able to touch the inside of this golden bubble, it’s there for your protection. That’s good. And now imagine little tendrils, little roots growing from your heels. Out they grow, down into what you’re standing on, into the subsoil, and down through the strata to lock you to the earth. So you’re totally protected and grounded with those tendrils. And you can move without any bother at all, without any hindrance you can move quite easily and freely, you’ll hear my voice and you’ll be able to answer. So now I want you to take your first step down into peace and tranquillity. That’s good. And the second step down. And the third step down. Calm, comfortable, relaxed, completely at ease, protected and grounded. And step number four. And then five. Half way down now. Now you’re seeing more detail in that huge wooden door at the bottom of the stairs. And six. And step number seven. Calm, comfortable, relaxed, completely at ease, protected and grounded. Continue onward, continue onward. Eight, and nine, and ten. In front of that huge wooden door. What colour is the door? L: Brown. R: Brown door, ok. Now before you go through the door I’ll tell you what’s on the other side. It’s just a neutrally coloured room, that’s all it is. So when you’re ready, just step through into that neutrally coloured room please. Close the door behind you. Ok. Very shortly I’ll be speaking to Laura’s subconscious mind, and I’ll be speaking to Laura’s subconscious mind as if I’m speaking to another person. I’ll ask you not to think about my questions, just give the answers as quickly as they come. I’m going to count to three and snap my fingers, and when I snap my fingers your subconscious mind will appear as a shape, a colour, a picture or a symbol. One, two, three. Tell me what you have. L: A blue triangle. R: Blue triangle. That’s marvellous. Blue triangle, are you Laura’s subconscious mind, yes or no? L: Yes. R: Subconscious mind, thank you for appearing in that form. Subconscious mind, would it be appropriate to go back in safety and comfort to the incidents we have mentioned. The incident in Sunderland in 81, and the incident in Dagenham in 83. Would that be appropriate? L: Yes. R: Thank you subconscious mind. Ok, just relax and breathe. Just relax and breathe. You’re doing very well. Ok. It’s September 1981. You’re in the house in Sunderland. Now before you went to bed that night did anything out of the ordinary happen in the day? L: No. R: Ok. What time did you go to bed that night? L: Half past eleven. R: Half past eleven, ok. Were you alone in the house? L: No. R: Who was in the house with you? L: My boyfriend. R: Ok. So you went to bed at eleven thirty? L: Yeah. R: Ok. How did you prepare for the next day? L: I folded my clothes and put them next to the bed. R: Put them next to the bed, ok. L: Yes. R: You got into bed I take it? L: Yes. R: Settled down? L: Yes. R: Ok. Did you get off to sleep easily or was there any difficulty? L: No I went straight to sleep. R: You went straight away, ok. Tell me what happened next. Take your time, don’t struggle, don’t rush. L: I’m outside but I don’t know how I got there. R: You’re outside? L: Yes. R: Uh-huh. What are you wearing? L: My clothes that I put out for the day. R: Ok. So you put the clothes on and you’ve gone outside, is that right? L: I must have, but I don’t know. I must have but I don’t know how I got there. R: Ok, put yourself back in the bed and very very slowly, slowly as you like go to the point where something happens. This is just a memory, we’re looking for something that happened between the time you went to sleep and the time when you were outside with the clothes for the following day on. L: There’s somebody in the room. R: There’s somebody in the room? L: Yes. R: Ok, this is just a memory, you’re looking at a memory. L: They want me to go with them. R: Is this a verbal instruction or request, or how do you know they want you to go with them? L: I don’t know, I just know. R: You just know that.... L: Mmm. R: That there is someone in the room with you and they want you to go with them. L: Yes. R: Can you see, whoever this is in the room? Have you got a sense of them? L: I can feel them but I can’t see them. R: You can feel them. Ok. Is it just the one or is there more than one? L: There’s at least three. R: At least three, ok. How do you sense them Laura? L: I don’t know I just feel that they’re there, I can’t see them, but I can sense them there. R: You can sense them there, ok. So you sense three beings in the room with you? L: Yes. R: Ok. Are you instructed to put the clothes on? Do you do this of your own accord? L: They want me to go with them but I won’t go ‘cause I want my...my clothes. R: Oh I see, they want you to go with them but you won’t because you’ve only got your night clothes on? L: Yeah. R: Ok. Do they, how do you know that they want you to go outside? L: They don’t want me to go outside, they want me to go with them. R: Oh I see, they don’t want you to go outside. L: No. R: But then the issue of the clothes comes up, you just having your night clothes on yes? L: Yes. R: So what do you do? L: I tell them that I’ll go if they let me get dressed. R: You tell them you will go with them if they let you get dressed. L: Yeah. R: And do you do that? L: Yeah. R: Ok. And you think you’ve still got your eyes closed? L: Yeah. R: Ok. And you can find your clothes ok and put them on without looking? L: Yes. They’re next to my bed. R: So you put those clothes on that you were keeping for the next day, then what happens? L: I don’t want to go with them. I told them I would but I don’t want to. R: You told them that you would go but you don’t want to. L: No. I grabbed my keys and I went outdoors. R: You grabbed your keys and you go out? L: Yes. R: Yes. Did you have to look for your keys? L: No. R: You knew where they were? L: Yes. R: So you still hadn’t seen whoever was in the room with you? L: No. I know they’re still there but... R: You know they’re still there, that’s fine. And you ran out? L: Yes. R: Ok. L: I was trying to get away. R: Yes. What happened next Laura? L: I went through the park. R: Went through the park, yes. L: Walked through the park, and I couldn’t see them. R: You could see them? L: No, I couldn’t see them. R: Oh you couldn’t see them there. L: So I thought I was alright to come home. R: Uh-huh. L: So I started to come home. R: Yes. So you started to come home, then what happened? L: Everything lit up bright. R: Where were you in the park when everything lit up bright, can you remember? L: Err I’d gone through the park, and I was coming back across the bridge. R: Across the bridge, uh-huh. L: Not out the other side, but across the bridge. R: Yes I understand. L: And then everything in the dark lit up bright like it was daytime. R: Ok. So everything lit up bright? L: I don’t know how it happened ‘cause it’s night time. R: Yes of course, it’s night time. But suddenly you found it very very bright. L: Yes. R: Then what happened? Take your time, you’re ok, you’re doing very well. This is just a memory, you’re perfectly safe. I promise you, you’re perfectly safe, just try to remember. L: I don’t know how I got there but I’m in a big...room. R: You don’t know how you got there but you’re in a big room. L: Yeah. R: Mhmm. L: A round room...round room. R: A round room yes. L: It’s all white. R: Uh-huh. L: Everything’s white. R: Everything is white in this round room, I see. L: Mhmm. I see other people. R: Other people? L: There’s other people in there. R: Uh-huh. L: I don’t know them. R: You don’t recognise these people ok. L: I don’t recognise them no. R: Uh-huh. What are they doing, these other people in this round room Laura? L: They’re all huddling together ‘cause they’re frightened. R: They’re huddling together because they’re frightened. L: Yes. 📷 R: And then what happens? L: Somebody comes into the room. R: Can you see who comes into the room? L: No it’s too bright. R: It’s too bright to see who comes in, ok. L: Too bright. The brightness hurts my eyes. R: Ok. The brightness is hurting your eyes but you sense somebody’s come into the room? L: Yes. R: Can you see any shadows or movement? L: No just the people huddled together. R: Just the people huddled together, that’s fine, uh-huh. Then what happens? L: He’s looking round the room at the people. R: He is looking round the room at the people, have I got that right? L: Yes. R: Who’s he? L: I don’t know. R: Tell me what he looks like, this figure. L: He’s very tall. R: He’s very tall, ok. L: Just very tall. R: That’s fine, he’s very tall. You just describe him as best you can to me, you’ve got plenty of time, there’s no rush. This is just a memory, you’re just describing a memory to me Laura, you are perfectly safe I promise you. L: He’s wearing a white robe. Umm...he’s got blond hair, long blond hair. R: Uh-huh. L: He’s just looking at all the people. R: Can you see his face clearly? L: He appears like just a normal person. R: He looks like a normal person with long blond hair, is that correct? L: Yes. R: He’s white robed. L: Yes. R: And he’s very tall. L: Yeah. R: Can you see anything other than his white robe. L: He’s got like a type of belt around the middle but its like, I don’t know, made of gold coloured rope. R: So he’s got what appears to be a gold coloured rope around his middle. L: Yeah. R: Is there an emblem or any sort of marking on his white robe that you notice? L: No. R: No, that’s fine. L: It’s got gold edging but... R: Gold edging. L: There’s nothing else. R: Can you see this chap’s eyes? L: They’re blue. Blue eyes. 📷 R: Ok that’s fine, that’s fine. So this tall chap is looking, he’s looking at the group of people, did I get that right? L: Yes. R: Are you separate from that group of people? L: Yeah. R: Are you alone, standing alone? L: Over the other side of the room. R: You’re on the other side of the room, I understand. And what happens next? L: He’s looking at the people. R: Yes. L: And then he looks at me... R: Yes. L: And he says “I don’t need you this time.” R: I don’t need you this time. L: I don’t know why he said that. I don’t need you. R: Him having said that do you feel you’ve seen this being before, is he familiar to you at all? L: No I’ve not seen him. R: Doesn’t appear familiar ok. But he said he doesn’t need you this time. L: Yes. R: And then what happens? L: I’m back on the bridge. R: Mhmm. L: And it’s raining. R: You’re back on the bridge and it’s ranining. L: Mhmm. R: However did you get back on the bridge? L: I don’t know. R: Just go back again, like you did before. Back to that white room. And go forward very very slowly and take your time. As see if you can find out how you came to be back on the bridge. What happened between that white room and being back on the bridge? L: (Breathes heavily) R: That’s fine, you’re ok. It’s just a memory, just a memory. Just take it nice and slowly, and see if anything comes to mind. L: I tried to ask him why he didn’t need me. R: You asked him? L: I asked him “Why don’t you need me? Why do you need them and you don’t need me?” R: Yes. How did you ask? Verbally? L: Yeah. I shouted it. R: You shouted it? L: I was angry. R: Why would you be angry? L: (Distressed) ‘Cause he came and he sent them people and...and they made me go and run away and, and then...he took me, I don’t know, I don’t, I don’t know how I got in there I just know I was on the bridge... R: That’s ok, just relax. L: And he was in there and and he took me and I didn’t want him to take me. R: That’s ok. And then he said he didn’t need you. L: And then he says he don’t need me. R: So you got angry? L: I’m angry ‘cause why did he take me if he don’t want me? R: And you shouted that at him? L: Yes. R: And did you get a response? L: No. R: Did he look at you? L: No. R: Just breathe. L: He walked out. R: He walked out. Just breathe, just breathe. Just breathe, this is a memory don’t forget. It’s a memory don’t forget. That’s all it is. Just breathe for me. That’s great, that’s fine, that’s fine Laura, just breathe. You’re fine, you’re absolutely fine. Good girl, that’s great. L: And as he going out the room I shouted at him, “Then why did you send them if you didn’t want me?” R: Yes. L: And he didn’t answer. R: He ignored you? L: He ignored me, he walked away. R: And that didn’t help. And did that make you even more angry? L: It’s made me more angry. R: Yes. L: And they...they grabbed hold of me. R: Who grabbed hold of you? L: I don’t know, somebody, two people, one grabbed each arm. R: Yes. L: Put two hands on each arm... R: Yes. L: And they grabbed me, and then they said “You’ve got to leave, he doesn’t want you, you’ve got to leave.” R: Did you hear that? He doesn’t want you you’ve got to leave? Did you actually hear that? L: Yes. R: You heard that. L: I don’t know whether it was in my head or... R: I understand. L: Whether I physically heard it, but I heard that. R: Ok. Where are you looking now, as you’ve got one person on each side of you holding your arms, where are you looking? L: I’m trying to look at them and see who they are. R: Yes, and can you do that for me? I still sense you’re very angry. L: They pulled me out of my bed for no reason. R: Yes. And those two people who are frog marching you away. Who are these two people who are frog marching you away? L: They won’t let me see them. R: They won’t let you, how do they stop you seeing them? L: I don’t know, I feel them holding my arm but I can’t see them. R: Ok, that’s fair enough. And where do they take you Laura? L: They take me out of the room. R: Yes. L: Umm, I don’t know. Just on the bridge. I don’t know how I got there. R: You’re back on the bridge, that’s fine. And you say it’s raining on the bridge? L: Yeah, it’s raining. R: You’ve got your clothes from the following day on haven’t you? L: I’m getting soaking wet. R: So what do you do? L: I was so angry I just... R: You were still angry on the bridge? L: It went dark again. R: Yes. L: And I couldn’t see anybody. R: Ok. L: And I knew that they must be up in the sky ‘cause that’s where the light was coming from. R: I understand, you knew that they must be up in the sky because that was where the light was coming from, have I got that correct? L: Yeah. R: Thank you. L: I looked up at the sky and I called them a bastard for taking me away. (Distressed) R: Ok, ok, relax, you’re fine. It’s just a memory. You are extremely angry. L: I was so angry I called them a bastard ‘cause... R: That’s fine. L: There was no need for them to take me from my bed, if they didn’t need me why didn’t they just leave me? R: Absolutely. L: Umm, I ran home. R: You ran home. L: I ran home ‘ cause I was scared now. I thought ‘cause I called them a bastard they might come back. R: You were scared having called them a name, I understand, ok. You were frightened, and you were scared of repercussions, have I got that correctly? L: Yeah, I don’t know what they would do. R: No. L: So I’m at home. R: Mhmm. How did you get home? L: I don’t remember. But I did. R: Did you get home though? L: I was soaking wet by the time I got home. R: Soaking wet by the time you got home. L: Soaking wet. R: So you went in the house? L: I put my night dress back on. R: You put your night dress back on, uh-huh. What did you do with your clothes, the wet clothes? L: I just dropped them on the floor. R: Ok, you just dropped them on the floor. L: Yeah. R: Then what did you do? L: I got back into bed R: Mhmm. L: And I went to sleep. R: Just got back into your bed and went to sleep. After everything that had happened to you, your anger, you just got back into bed and went straight to sleep? L: I didn’t go straight to sleep, it took a long time ‘cause I was still angry. R: You still carried that anger with you? L: I was angry that they took me and they didn’t need me. R: Yes, of course. Right just breathe. Just breathe and let that go. You’re doing very well, you’re doing very well. Just breathe. And let that anger go, let it just seep away from you. You’re doing very well. Excellent. Just breathe and allow that just to dissipate, you don’t need that. That’s something you remembered, so you can let it go now. It was a memory, let that go. L: Umm I got even more angry that I tried to wake John up, and John wouldn’t wake up. R: He wouldn’t wake up. And that made it worse. L: That made me even more angry, so it took a long time to get back to sleep. R: Yes, I understand. Let it go, let it all go, let the anger go, let that memory go. Just breathe, that’s it, that’s good. Just breathe and settle, breathe and settle, you’re doing very well indeed. I’m very proud of you. Breathe and settle now. What was revealed in the regression filled in all the gaps and Laura was finally able to understand what had taken place that night. Her recollection is impressively detailed. It was clear that the ETs initially planned to take her from her own bedroom. As with many other contact experiences, this began with a visitation by a number of beings. She could not verify exactly what they looked like, but it is probable that they were Greys. Afterwards Laura said that during the regression they appeared shadowy to her, like silhouettes. Perhaps this was due to the fact it was the middle of the night and she could not clearly see them in the darkness of her room. Or perhaps the beings did not wish to be seen and were masking their appearance from her. Most of the time when individuals are abducted they find they cannot move. This is probably done on purpose so the contactee cannot fight back against what is taking place. However Laura was not paralyzed at all during this experience, she was able to move around freely. As well as being un-nerved by the beings, Laura was concerned that she was in her night clothes. The ETs actually allowed her to put her normal daytime clothing on. This is another sign that she had more control over the situation than contactees are usually granted. Perhaps they trusted her or expected her to co-operate. However it seems that she did not co-operate, as instead of going with the ETs she ran away from them. She left her house and ran down to the local park to escape from them. After the regression I asked Laura why she did not try knocking on someone else’s front door. Laura says she doesn’t really know, at the time she just wanted to get away. She had no idea of the time but it was still completely dark. Looking around she saw that the ETs had not given chase. It was now that the light appeared above her. This appears to have come from a craft, probably the same craft which she was originally intended to enter. Laura was then taken up into the craft. She has no recollection of how she got there. It is common for contactees to forget this part of the experience, so and is known as travel amnesia. Her description of the inside of the craft, with the smooth curved glowing white walls fits in with many other cases. Aboard the craft she saw other people, probably other abductees who had been picked up elsewhere. The being she met next was what we refer to as a Nordic. This extremely human-like species are often seen working in conjunction with the Greys and other species during contact experiences. They appear to have a number of ongoing agendas. Some believe that they have actually created the Greys to do work for them, as often they are seen to watch over proceedings while the Greys perform tasks. The Nordic told her that she was not needed. This was possibly related to what would take place in later experiences, described later in this report. At the time it served only to confuse Laura as the being would not tell her what he meant by this. She actually got quite angry at the Nordic for seemingly taking her un-necessarily. Laura was then returned to the park at the same place she had been taken from. It was now that it started raining. The craft left the area and she then had to run back home in the rain. At this point she was frightened that she would be taken again. When she arrived home, she went up to her room, dumped her wet clothes on the floor and got into bed. She then tried to wake up her partner but found she could not. This has been reported many times during contact. It appears that the ETs have the ability to shut down the local area, which is probably done so that no-one will interfere with what they are doing or witness the abduction. In the end Laura settled down and went to sleep. In the morning she had no recollection of what had taken place aboard the craft, she only had a flashback of standing in the park and the craft lighting up the area. After the regression we managed to retrace the steps Laura took. She left her house on Cleveland Road and ran down to the junction with Farnham Terrace. She then ran down Farnham Terrace and and entered the park via the gate at the end of this road. She ran through the park and ended up on the bridge on Ettrick Grove. This is where she was abducted by the craft. After her abduction she then continued along Ettrick Grove until it joined with Cleveland Road. She then ran back along Cleveland Road to her house. Aerial map showing the full route that Laura took: 📷 Laura is very pleased with what she was able to remember under regression, and is certain that this is what took place. Due to her experiences she has looked into the UFO subject, but has only looked into contact a bit, and does not believe that she imagined what she came out with. It was completely real to her and fitted in with what she had consciously remembered beforehand. Mother & Sisters UFO Encounter On the same evening as Laura was abducted, her mother and sisters also had a close encounter with a UFO and were also possibly taken. After dropping Laura back at her house, her sister Carol made her way home to her mothers. As she neared the Moorside Estate she noticed an orange glow coming from behind the houses. Initially she assumed it was just the sun going down. But then she realised that the sun was visible elsewhere in the sky so she knew the glow had to be coming from something else. Carol arrived home and told her mother Beth and elder sister Julia about the light. They decided to head back out to see if they could find the cause of the glow. They stepped outside the house, but the cause of the light was hidden from view behind other housing. So they then got in the car and drove round to the back of the estate to take a closer look at whatever it was. As they arrived at the back of the estate, there hovering in the air was the source of the orange glow. It looked like a bright orange glowing sphere, which appeared very large in size. It was completely silent and motionless. As they got near to it, suddenly the car engine and lights cut out. Initially this didn’t really bother them as they assumed Carol had stalled the car – she had not long passed her test. Besides this, they had found what they were out looking for. They were all astounded and stared at the sphere for what seemed like several minutes. Aerial map showing Marcross Drive (A) and the approximate location of the UFO (B): 📷 Suddenly, seemingly out of nowhere, Julia became extremely agitated. She screamed at Carol “Get us out of here! There’s something not right here, get us out of here!” When Carol later told Laura about the incident she said that at this point she and her mother “snapped out of it”, implying that they had been in a dazed or trance-like state. Carol tried the car ignition but the car wouldn’t start. Julia continued to panic shouting “Start the car, start the car, we need to get out of here!” At this point Beth noticed that it had got dark extremely fast, it had seemed like sunset only moments before. She exclaimed “When did it get dark? It’s got dark really quick hasn’t it?” Julia replied that she didn’t really care, she just wanted to get out of there. Then they noticed that the orange sphere had gone. At this moment, the car started, although the lights were still not working. By then all three witnesses were frightened so Carol began to drive them away from the area anyway. She drove at quite a fast speed. There were cars honking their horns at them because they didn’t have their lights on. Carol kept trying the lights, and further down the road they suddenly began working again. They arrived home, quite shaken up at what they had experienced. The UFO had only been about five minutes drive away from where they lived. They had seemingly only watched it for five minutes at most, so they felt they had been gone from the house for no more than 15 minutes. But when they checked the clock they found a whole hour had gone by. There was 45 minutes they could not account for. The following day when Laura went round to visit, her sisters looked shaken up and she asked them what was wrong. They told her about what had happened. Laura did not mention the strange dream and wet clothing to them. Later on she would come to believe that she, her sisters and mother had been abducted on the same night during two separate incidents! Aerial map showing the distance between Barnes Park (A) and the Moorside Estate (B): 📷 Unfortunately her sisters are not happy with speaking about the incident and have blocked it out, and her mum is too ill to speak with about it with me. So the only information we have on what happened is what Laura was told by her sisters that day. We have no way to confirm whether or not her sisters and mother were actually taken, but the fact there was 45 minutes missing time does tend to suggest this happened. It is clear that what they witnessed was something out of the ordinary. It was too large to be a Chinese lantern or lit inflatable, and also if it was one of these then it surely would have drifted in the numerous minutes that the witnesses watched it for. The way in which the car engine and lights cut out has been reported many times before when people have got close to genuine craft. It is widely believed that the field the craft projects around it in order to hover and move around interferes with electronics in close proximity. Whether or not Laura’s mother and sisters were abducted, the very fact that they had a close encounter with a UFO on the same evening that Laura’s abduction occurred cannot just be down to coincidence. Contact often runs through multiple members of a family, so it seems probable that Laura is correct in her assumption that she, her mother and sisters were taken. Huge UFO Sighting In February 1982 Laura split up from her boyfriend and moved to a bedsit on High Road, in Seven Kings, London. She lived there until June of that year. At some point during this period, Laura had a stunning UFO sighting. At the time Laura used to work through the evening. She used to get a lift home with others at the end of each shift. It was between 11.30-12pm and she was on her way home in a full car of people. She was on the right side of the back seat. Everyone else except the driver had dropped off to sleep. They were almost home and were driving along Benton Road. Her road was in sight on the other side of an area of grass and trees, which has since been built over. Aerial map showing the location of the car, direction they were moving in, and the location of Laura's bedsit: 📷 Laura peered out of the window across to the building her bedsit was in. She then saw a very strange and very large object in the sky, directly over the top of this building. At first she assumed it was some other buildings in view behind her own. However she soon realised it could not be. It appeared to be a flattened disc, with many tall rectangular shaped objects stacked on top of it. All of these rectangles had squares all over them. It was glowing bright yellow in colour. However this glow did not seem to be illuminating the buildings below it. The object was absolutely huge, Laura estimates it was at least as wide as two football pitches. Witness drawing of the glowing UFO: 📷 Laura was convinced that it was not an optical illusion. She could not have mistaken the reflection of a group of office blocks for the object because there were none in the area (As she lived there she of course knew what kinds of buildings there were nearby). The object was hovering about 100 feet high and was gliding very slowly over the tops of the buildings. Laura was of course amazed by what she was seeing. She tried to tell the driver of the car but for some reason no words came out. Neither could she reach out and grab the driver to get their attention. She does not know whether this was due to the shock of what she was looking at, or something else entirely. The mysterious object was in sight for about 5 minutes as the car drove along Benton Road The car then turned a corner. A few minutes later it arrived at a car park where Laura would depart. She checked once more for the object but could no longer see it anywhere. Due to the appearance of the object, its size and the length of time Laura watched it for this is a fascinating sighting. It seems hard to believe that such a large brightly glowing object could have hovered in the sky over London for at least 5 minutes without being spotted by lots of witnesses. Then again it was over the tops of some buildings, and the area was not particularly open, so it cannot be ruled out. Another suggestion is that the object was only visible to Laura due to her contact experiences. Perhaps if the driver had looked they would not have been able to see the UFO anyway. I have investigated numerous other cases where this very thing has occurred. Perhaps it was visible to everyone but other witnesses had their memories of the experience removed. You may feel that the object looks a little similar to the base of the main craft at the end of Close Encounters of The Third Kind, but the other way up. This similarity did not go un-noticed by Laura. She had not seen this movie when she had the sighting, so a hallucination based on it can be ruled out. However when she did finally catch up with the film, the base of the mother ship reminded her of what she had seen, but facing down instead of up. We cannot fully rule out the possibility that it was an odd reflection in the glass of the window. Perhaps there was a bright yellow light source in the area that was being reflected in an odd manner and creating an illusion. That said, surely if it was something like this it would have remained completely still, not slowly glided over the roofs of the houses. If it was a genuine massive craft of some kind, it seems too coincidental that it was in the air directly over Laura’s bedsit. Could it have been in the area to monitor her in some way, or perhaps even to abduct her? She does not remember anything else strange happening during this time period that would suggest she was later abducted, however she may have been observed against her knowledge. The Red Sphere In November 1983, Laura had moved into a house in Dagenham, Essex, with her partner Joseph and his mother. She was ill and had been in bed for most of the day. But in the evening Top Of The Pops was on and she had decided that she would specially get up and watch it downstairs. At 7.55pm Joseph came upstairs to let her know it was going to be starting in 5 minutes. He then went back downstairs. Laura got up out of bed and went to put her dressing gown on. It was then that she noticed a red glow coming from behind the curtains of her bedroom window. She immediately thought this was strange, as in that direction there was only the playing fields of a local school. She pulled back the curtains and peered outside. There out over the back garden was a glowing red spherical object. It was about 200 yards away, and was not massive in size but was at least as big as a car. Witness drawing of the red sphere: 📷 Laura stood and stared at the object for what seemed like a couple of minutes. She was intrigued by it but not really frightened. The object then seemed to vanish, so she closed the curtains and headed downstairs. When she entered the lounge, Joseph looked up and said to her “You’re too late you’ve missed it!” Laura saw some program credits on the TV screen and replied “What are you on about? Surely that’s the credits from the program before?” He replied “No, that’s the credits of the program you wanted to watch! I came up and told you it was about to begin. You’ve missed it.” A whole hour had gone by which she could not account for. She was very confused and felt that it must have been due to the object she had seen over the garden. She told Joseph but he insisted she must have dropped back off to sleep and dreamed she saw the red sphere. However Laura was convinced she had got up out of bed and got quite angry about the situation. As you will see later in this report, there was much more to this incident than Laura initially remembered. First Pregnancy & The Silver Triangle In mid January 1984 Laura had a strange dream. In this dream someone who she could not see told her that she was pregnant and that the baby would be born on the 11th August. She remembered this when she woke in the morning, but did not put it down to anything more than a dream. On 30th January, Laura found out that she was 11 weeks pregnant. She had no idea before that point as she wasn’t showing any of the normal signs of pregnancy such as morning sickness, and was even menstruating like normal. She started to put on weight and decided to go to see a doctor to find out what was happening. The doctor could not explain it so sent her to see a gynaecologist. It was at this point that she was informed she was pregnant, which of course came as a great surprise. She was not trying for a baby at the time and could not understand how she had become pregnant. But when she counted back 11 weeks she realised that this was around the time she had seen the red sphere and missed an hour of time. The gynaecologist then sent Laura to the antenatal clinic. They informed Laura that the baby would not be due till the 16th September. Laura told them about the strange dream and felt that this was wrong and that she would give birth on the 11th August. She put the dream down to a premonition, which she had experienced on other occasions (see later). After she had been told about the baby, she then started to experience the normal signs of pregnancy. It’s possible that some were taking place beforehand but Laura had not really noticed or put it down to other things. However her periods had definitely carried on until she was informed of the baby, but from that point on ceased. These observations were not to be the only strange aspects to the pregnancy. At the time both she and her partner Joseph worked at the same location. Laura would travel with Joseph every morning at 6.30am on the back of his motorbike. The morning after she found out she was pregnant, they got ready to leave like usual. They got on the motorbike on the front driveway. However when Joseph tried the ignition the bike wouldn’t start. Laura happened to glance back towards the house. There hovering in the sky over the roof was a silver-coloured triangular shaped object. It was reflecting the morning light. The object was hovering completely still. It appeared to be upright, and was equilateral in shape. It had a flat surface with no distinguishable markings. Witness drawing of the triangular UFO: 📷 Laura was not frightened of the object. She felt that it meant her no harm and was watching over her. She did not tell Joseph about its presence. She did not feel the need to do so, it felt to her like it was for her eyes only. The object began to back away, and at this moment the motorbike started up. They set off for their workplace. Along their journey Laura glanced back numerous times, and was astounded to see that the object was following them. It remained up in the clouds but was present until they reached their destination. At this point it suddenly blinked out and was gone. This object did not appear just once. In fact it appeared every single morning she would travel in to work. It continued to do this right up until she left work on maternity. She never saw it at any other time. It would always begin over the house and would then proceed to follow her and Joseph until they reached their work place. Some mornings it was of course cloudy. The object was at a high enough altitude that it would not be visible on these occasions, but Laura could still sense that it was there even if she couldn’t see it. It may seem unbelievable to some that Laura saw the object on so many occasions, but she did not tell her partner or anyone else about, neither did anyone else happen to see it at any point. However Laura insists that this was because she knew it was there for her and watching over her. She had no interest in trying to prove its existence to anyone else, her partner included. This is why she never tried to photograph or video tape it. It is possible that there were other witnesses to it who either did not report their sighting, or perhaps did but these reports have not been discovered yet. Another possibility is that only Laura could see the object, it was somehow only appearing to her. In early August Laura began to experience difficulties with the pregnancy and the doctors recommended that she should be induced. She went in to be induced on 8th August. However for three days this induction did not work as planned, which the doctors at the hospital were baffled by. In the end on August 11th, just as Laura knew would take place, the induction procedure finally worked and she gave birth to her first son Peter. Peter was a completely normal baby, and has not exhibited any unusual traits or abilities. He too has had experiences and UFO sightings, sometimes in Laura’s presence, sometimes not. At present he does not wish to speak to me about these experiences. It is unsurprising that he has experienced things as well as Laura, as contact often occurs through multiple individuals in a family bloodline. Many including myself believe that the ETs are interested in our genetics and how our genes change over numerous generations, and are slowly making modifications over time.

Birmingham UFO Group Report Author: Dave Hodrien Originally forwarded by Richard Hall Release Date: 28/09/2011 For reasons of anonymity pseudonyms have been used Sighting Details It was between 8.40-9.15pm on the evening of 29th January 2010. Thomas was at the hospital where he works in Letterkenny, Donegal. He was standing outside having a breath of fresh air on a break from his work. It was the night of the full moon and the stars could be seen through gaps in the low partial cloud. It was also quite windy. Thomas was looking up at the full moon and watching the clouds drift by. Suddenly he saw a strange object come into view over the top of the building alongside him, almost overhead but a bit to the North. It appeared to be a flattened disc shape and was glowing white. Thomas describes it as looking like a “round hole of daylight punched through the night sky”. It appeared to be about 10 metres in diameter. The object was a short distance above the low level cloud layer, and was initially travelling against the wind. Thomas knows this as the clouds were travelling in the opposite direction to it. Also he could see the clouds passing beneath the object so it was clearly solid and not a searchlight hitting the base of the clouds. Photograph taken at the sighting location looking up at the roof of the building, with the UFO drawn on top by the witness in the position it first appeared: 📷 The UFO initially travelled East for about 300 metres. Rich estimates it moved between 70-80 mph. Then it suddenly came to an abrupt halt. After hovering still for a short time it then flashed extremely fast before shining a beam of yellow-white light downward onto the top of a nearby large cloud. The beam lasted for several seconds. It repeated this a few times. Photograph of the sighting location with the UFO drawn on top in the position it moved to initially: 📷 After this astounding display it then moved in the opposite direction back towards his location. Again it stopped, flashed, and shone the beam downwards onto the clouds several times. Over the next 15-20 minutes it repeated this entire sequence five or six times. It appeared to be searching for something or scanning the clouds. Photograph of the sighting location with the UFO drawn on top in the various positions that it moved to: Witness drawing showing the movement pattern of the UFO: 📷 Photograph of the sighting location with the UFO drawn on top in the various positions it moved to: 📷 Thomas was amazed and excited by what he was witnessing. At one point he saw the light beam break through a gap in the cloud and continue shining downwards into the sky beneath. Witness drawing showing beam of light from UFO piercing through cloud layer: 📷 Thomas was aware that the night staff were about to start their shift. After 10 minutes of observing the UFO alone, he went in and found one of the staff named Julia. He asked her to come outside and also see the the object. Julia returned outside with Thomas and they both then watched the UFO for a further 5 minutes. Unfortunately it was then time for Thomas to hand over work duty to Julia and two other staff Kerry and Veronica. They went back inside to meet up with the others. However when they told them about the object, Kerry and Veronica were intrigued and wanted to see it for themselves. Thomas first took Kerry outside to watch it for several minutes, then he, Julia and Veronica headed outside again for several minutes. While outside with Veronica, she claimed to have seen a bright beam of light come down from the sky while she was driving towards the hospital. It was then unfortunately time for Thomas to give the official hand over. He watched the object for a final couple of minutes. Then he headed inside with the night staff to do the hand over. This took about 15-20 minutes. Once it was sorted out he then ran back outside to see if the UFO was still present, but it could no longer be seen. Sadly he and the other staff did not have cameras or camera phones on them at the time such as they were uniformed for work. Thomas thought about this later on and wished he had been able to video the object so he had some lasting evidence of what took place. After the incident Thomas got the impression that the other witnesses did not want to talk about it so he never spoke about it with them after that evening. It has played on his mind ever since. Sighting Analysis This is an absolutely stunning sighting and almost certainly of something out of the ordinary. The object was clearly under control and making intelligent manoeuvres, performing the same sequence numerous times. The fact that it shone down a beam of light onto the clouds is impressive and shows that as well as being self-luminescent it had its own distinct light or energy sources. It was clearly not a lit inflatable of any kind due to the movements it performed and was under powered control as it flew against the direction of the wind as well as hovered motionless in the sky. As Thomas mentioned, it could not have been a search light or other ground lighting hitting the clouds as he actually saw the low level cloud drifting under the object and temporarily obscure it from view. It was clearly not a conventional aircraft of any kind. Could it have been some kind of secret military craft? This seems very unlikely, military drones are build for stealth, so they would have no reason to build a device that glowed brightly and was clearly visible from the ground. Also for what purpose would they be shining a light beam onto the clouds many times in succession? I feel there is a good possibility that this was a genuine sighting of an advanced ET craft. UFOs are often seen to glow brightly after dark. This is probably due to the energy field that they project in order to manoeuvre in the atmosphere. We will probably never know the reason why the craft was in the area at that time or why it was shining the beam of light down onto the clouds. Perhaps it was monitoring them in some way or even extracting moisture from them. Thomas does not believe that the other witnesses who were there that night would want to talk with me about the incident, so at present we only have his excellent testimony to go on. However this is one of the most impressive sightings I have been informed of in quite a while. Copyright Dave Hodrien 2011

Birmingham UFO Group Report Author: Dave Hodrien Originally forwarded by Richard Hall Release Date: 12/10/2011 Sighting Details It was an overcast but dry morning in November 2010. Anthony Mewett was walking his pet dog on Forest View in Hailsham, East Sussex. It was 6am and still dark. The street lights were still on. As he turned a corner on the road, Anthony heard a strange low humming sound. He looked up and saw a disc-shaped object covered in shimmering multi coloured lights, giving it a rainbow-like effect. It appeared to be quite large in size, perhaps 150 feet across. The object was nearly overhead but slightly off to his right and appeared to be at a low altitude, at a height of about 200 feet. It was travelling North West at a slow speed. Aerial map of Forest View: 📷 The object had seemingly appeared out of nowhere. It was only visible for a short moment, before disappearing into the darkness. Frank was shocked at what he had just seen, but was not afraid. For a time he just stood there on the spot thinking about what had happened. There was no-one else around due to the time of morning, and Frank is unaware whether anyone else saw the object. Sighting Analysis This is an intriguing sighting, with some very interesting aspects. Due to the apparent size of the object it seems unlikely to have been an LED blimp or other electronically lit inflatable of some kind. That said, perhaps it was actually lower and smaller than it appeared to be, it is hard to accurately judge the height of objects in the sky as there is no point of reference. However if it was an inflatable then it surely would have been silent rather than making a low humming sound. This sound has been reported many times before during close encounters with UFOs, and it is one of the reasons why I feel this may be a genuine sighting. Also we must take into account the time of morning, why would someone have launched such an object at this time? Even a late night party would generally have finished by then. If it was not a lit inflatable then what else could explain it? It was clearly not a conventional aircraft of any kind, and could not have been a helicopter as the sound of the rotor blades would no doubt have been audible. It was too large to have been a remote controlled model, and it is very unlikely someone would have been trying to play a prank on the witness at that time of morning. It appeared to be a solid disc-shaped object not just multicoloured lights, so it is unlikely to have been odd atmospheric phenomena. Could it have been a secret military craft? This too seems unlikely as for what purpose would they fly such an object over a residential area in plain sight? Also why would they cover it in multi coloured lights making it very easy to spot? I feel that mundane explanations for the object can be adequately dismissed, so this may well be a genuine sighting of an advanced ET craft. I have investigated other cases where very similar objects have been seen before, and although the object did not perform any intelligent manoeuvres it is still an impressive sighting.
