“Incredible accounts...by seemingly credible persons.” Dr. J. Allen Hynek (1972)
Many cases from 2010 and 2011 are summarized in the issues of THE JOURNAL OF HUMANOID STUDIES and will not be duplicated here. After a busy 2011...2012 has proved to be a most interesting year so far with numerous assorted encounters and cases. Are we building up for something? Is this our last year to learn our real place in the cosmos? I suspect it will be my last year for collecting cases and I will start work in other projects.

Time: afternoon
The witness, Gregor, was exploring a narrow cave that a colleague had recently found, located on the opposite side of the descending mountain range in the foothills near the east bank of the Halsatter See (lake). As he moved through the difficult passageway he started to hear voices emanating from the darkness ahead. He stopped to collect a few samples from the cave wall---chipping it with his pick. He moved deeper---maybe 50 meters---until he noticed the voices again. He is familiar with echoes and the Doppler Effect sounds in caves but this was totally different. He stood quietly for several minutes until the voices stopped.
Again he moved through the cave---almost crawling at this point. After another 40 meters he ascended into a chamber that was big enough to accommodate several people. There were two wide openings on the opposite side of the chamber---each looked like it had been excavated by machine. There was also an obvious rotting odor. As he examined the chamber he noticed an odd red iridescent as he passed the light over the rock floor. When he knelt down to collect a sample he again heard voices coming from one of the passageways. At this point he was terrified and started to hurry back through the narrow cave. After he squeezed back several meters he was able to turn his head just enough to look back into the dark chamber. A yellow light slowly made its way into the chamber from the left opening in the chamber---then there were several yellow lights following the first. As the lights moved through the opening into the chamber then back through the opening on the right he was able to see the beings. The sight sent fear throughout his body---he was actually paralyzed.
The creatures were humanoid in stature---but these were not human. Each varied in height but all looked the same---muscular lizards that walked upright like humans. There wasn’t a better term that he was able to use to describe these beings. These creatures wore dark colored full-body uniforms that extended and covered the feet. He couldn’t tell the exact color of the skin but each had a pronounced muzzle. The long tails were very prominent and swiftly swayed back and forth as they moved forward. The arms and legs were massive---he could detect the musculature through the uniforms. There were voices also---as if they were talking to each other. The voices actually sounded human though he could not understand the language. There were possibly 20 or more of these creatures as they walked single file through the chamber and into the other opening. When he thought it was safe to move he quickly withdrew from the cave. He thinks he may have been in shock because he barely remembered anything that happened from that point until he reached his office. He decided to keep a private journal of the encounter. His colleague who originally found the cave told him that he has explored the cave since the encounter but never mentioned anything about the chamber, other passageways or bizarre beings.

The witness was on his way to work headed north bound into the village of New Miami on Seven Mile Avenue. He left the traffic light at the southern most edge of town in to a dark stretch of road when a large flying creature swooped over his car and snatched up as mall animal in the road ahead of him at the edge of his headlights. As a construction worker, he felt that he could judge the size of objects fairly well. The creature had a wing span of at least 12 feet and was jet black. It completely blocked the view out of his windshield and then some and moved at a very high speed. He was traveling between 35-40 mph and it had to have been traveling at around 70-80 mph. according to the witness he researched large predator birds and raptors indigenous to Ohio and there are none that fit the description of what he saw.

The witness, Mark, (involved in other encounters) was in bed getting ready to sleep and was lying there when a ‘voice’ popped into his head that simply said, “Something to think about.” This took him by surprise and he started to look around his bedroom. It was very dark but he saw what he thought to be a dark figure about 3ft in height win long spindly arms and legs standing in the doorway. He could not tell if its color was black or if it was just from the darkness. He observed this for several minutes trying to engage in communication asking questions ‘telepathically’, but never got a response. This was also accompanied by strange lights that seemed to be emanating from the floor of his bedroom. As he went to get up from bed a sudden wave of tiredness swept over him and he at once fell asleep.
The witness adds that there is strange activity occurring in the house involving disembodied voices and poltergeist activity.

On the A134, a lorry driver (truck driver) reported seeing a hairy, light gray creature on all fours moving through grass around ninety meters away. The driver could see the creature had forward facing eyes, a long snout, and upright ears. The creature then stood on its hind legs and approached the driver, moving like an ape, before dropping once again to all fours and running off, peering over its shoulder as it left.

The witness and her son had moved into their brand new house in 1996, her son is 18 years old now and she now lives there alone. They had always heard strange noises in the home: footsteps, knocks, talking, and other things had happened over the years. That morning she had fallen asleep in the living room and awoke around 5 am. There was enough daylight to see ok. Standing there just looking at her was a little man. He was standing next to a chair about 5 feet away from her. Compared to the chair, she estimated his height at around 3 feet tall. He had his hands folded in front of him and was kind of dark gray in color. According to the witness, the weird part was that she seemed to know who he was, but just couldn’t remember from where. She wasn’t scared, and he didn’t seem menacing at all, she just went back to sleep.

A family of five reported seeing a man floating in the air wearing a black aviator type suit. First the 2-year old yelled out, “A balloon, a balloon!” and the rest of them looked up and saw a thin man wearing a black suit. He appeared to be floating in the air. He was stationary. There were no wires attached to him nor was he wearing any wings. They contacted their local newspaper (West Hawaii Today) to see if anyone else reported seeing the floating man, but there was no response.

A man and his fiancée were driving around this night in a rural area when they came behind what appeared to be a slow moving vehicle with its hazards on. As they got closer more lights came on surrounding the object and appeared to pulsate. At first the man thought it was a tractor (due to the rural area) but as they got closer he listened to an engine and it was completely quiet aside from his own car. They were roughly 20 yards away and could see something walking back and forth around it. As they watched they could see underneath it as if it were floating. When they got closer to the object it picked up speed and headed down the road so they turned off onto another road. As they reached the end of the road (a good 5 mile stretch) he looked in his rear view mirror and saw the object following behind them and quickly gaining speed. They turned off and sped home and that was the last they saw of it.

The witness was in his backyard and his dog was barking like crazy, he was trying to get her to be quiet but she kept running back and forth in the yard, jumping the fence as if chasing a cat. She kept barking and sat in the middle of the yard. The witness then went out one last time to bring her inside but as soon as he got next to her she stopped barking. It was very silent, and pitch black outside. He looked up and could not see the stars but thought he saw a sort of black ellipse, suddenly his cell phone shattered for no reason at all the battery was dripping. He couldn’t recall what happened next, he woke up in his room later.
His next encounter occurred when he was in the living room in the morning, the sun was barely rising. It was round 4 or 5. He looked out the window and there it was, as clear as day, a being, its face was very ‘bony’, very skinny, sucked into the bone, it had no eyes, or nose, it had holes on the sides of its head, which he thought were like a reptile’s ears, but it was pale, flesh, it looked human but with the slightest green tint to it, and blue in some spots. It was tall, but hunched over, it had four arms and very small legs, a very large prominent spine, very easy to see through its flesh. It had something else, where the ribs would that looked like gills, there were bright pink in color. Stunned, the witness dropped his glass of milk and the creature turned to look at him. It stared at the witness for what felt like hours. He blacked out and woke up later around 12. (The witness reported two other encounters at a nearby Navajo Reservation, in one incident a glassy spider web like material was found but was buried by the witnesses).

The witness was taking photos of the moon with a Kodak M1063 when he noticed in one of the pictures that there was a face of what appeared to be a gray alien, as if it were a large (holographic?) projection. This all seemed very strange, so he looked at the photo closer in a Photoshop program where he was able to enlarge and clarify the picture. What he found were several objects, most notably a very distinct large alien looking face just to the right of the moon. He also noted what looked like a train of cylinder ships flying about the upper right crest of the forehead of the face, forming a semi-circle formation. He could also see a ‘Burr Tree’ shaped craft, and a Saturn shaped craft. He also noted that that night there were several silent aircraft crisscrossing the sky with lights what seemed to him to be military aircraft, as the local airport was closed at the moment.

The witness and his wife were on a short vacation and were staying at a B&B on Beach Avenue with a view of the sea. He was asleep when he was awakened by something. He opened his eyes and saw two beings standing at the foot of the bed. It was dark but there was adequate light coming in from the street to see them very clearly. He estimated that they were between 4.5-5 feet tall because he could see them from the waist up. They were identical in every way. They were wearing black or dark green, form-fitting suits that resembled scuba diving dry suits. These included snug hoods that extended from the back of their necks over top of their skulls. On their upper chests was a rectangular, gold or bronze colored plate about 6x4 inches with two rows of inscribed symbols or buttons on them. It resembled an instrument touchpad of some sort.
They were no more than six feet from his face and they were both staring right at him. It was a cool, appraising look. ‘It’s the look a cat might give you’. Their crania was very large, perhaps twice as a man’s. But it was their faces that really impressed him. They had huge wraparound, black eyes set above high cheekbones. Their skin appeared coppery or orange in color. He couldn’t detect a well defined mouth or nose, but along the rim of their jaws and down to their chins were some kind of organ-like structures, he couldn’t tell if they were gills or mandibles. He couldn’t see their hands, so he couldn’t say how many digits they had. When he realized that it was not a dream, he propped himself up on his elbows to get a better view. Strangely, he felt no fear. He was about to say something when he got this very clear thought, “Something is wrong. He sees us.” He suddenly became extremely sleepy, and tried to fight the urge to lie back down, but it was no use. He felt his eyes closing and that was it. The next thing he knew it was morning and he was awakened by the sunlight streaming in through the balcony door. He asked how she slept and she said it was the best night she’d h ad in a while.

The witness’ landlady had taken a trip to Germany and had asked the witness to water her plants for the summer. She has large fields on three sides of her home. The field behind her house has two medium size fishing ponds behind it and the banks of the ponds are very steep. He works long hours so he didn’t get to her house until after 11 pm. He was watering the plants when he heard what sounded like a woman’s scream. He automatically assumed someone had been fishing and had fallen down one of the banks and hurt herself. He yelled back asking if she needed help. The answer wasn’t what she expected. It was a low growl. He could hear it even though the ponds were more than two football fields in length from where he was. The growl was deep, but not loud.
What happened next sent him running to his van. The grass in the field is like saw grass it grows very fast and gets over waist high. He could hear something moving through the grass very fast. He ran back to the van as fast as he could. He had left it running because he wasn’t going to be long. He jumped into the van, put it into reverse and aimed the lights onto the field. As he did he saw something very tall, greenish brown colored step over a four-foot fence and disappear into the trees about 50 feet in front and to the left of his van. It did not appear to be hairy to him, but he couldn’t be sure. It had long thin legs and what appeared to be a short, thick tail. He couldn’t see its head from the tree limbs.

The witness was driving back from a visit with his daughter and had come to a stop light. He began to slow down when the car in front slammed their brakes on. Halfway through shouting at the woman in the car in front he saw why she had made such an abrupt stop. There was a gray figure about 6’5” with very long fingers, no eyes, mouth or nose that he could see. The gray color was lighter at the bottom, and faded into a darker shade toward its chest. Its fingers were at least 10” long. Traffic was at a standstill and there were at least 7 other cars stopped as he watched it walk up a hill into the forest on the side of the road. Eventually a couple of Roanoke county police arrived, and one went into the woods, only to come out pale and shaking. The main witness searched all over the local news to see if there had been any reporting of this incident because where it happened is a very populated area about half a mile from the Tanglewood shopping center. He found nothing.

The main witness and his girlfriend were jade hunting at Sand Dollar Beach and had stayed after sunset so it was dark when they headed up the stairs looking out at the ocean and noticed a strange hovering bright white light. His girlfriend thought it was oncoming car lights from the highway up above them. But he informed her that the highway was behind them and the light then darted away. It reappeared and got brighter and blinked from white to blue, to red. He was reluctant to leave, but they had a two hour drive ahead of them back to Monterey Bay. Once the staircase ended they continued up to the dark dirt trail. They were really scared and he held his girlfriend by the back of her shirt. They then saw a flashlight shining through the trees and someone jogging down the trail towards them with a spotlight shining randomly. As it got closer it looked like a miner’s hat with a bright white spotlight. They both then realized that it wasn’t human and it wanted to communicate. He spoke to it and said, ‘I don’t understand what you are trying to say to us, because you’re not human and don’t speak our language!”
Then it got closer and it turned into a boomerang/triangle with a bright white spotlight. It started to touch down with white tentacle strings hanging from it and started to take human form. That’s when the three points of the triangle materialized into three beings and three lights. The white light turned into an animal, the blue light turned into a lady with long black hair wearing a blue dress, and the red light turned into a man in a red outfit. They asked them if they were friendly, but the moment they had taken human form and hit the ground they immediately rushed towards the witnesses at very high speed. Thinking that they were not friendly, the witnesses began praying the Lord’s Prayer, etc and within an instant the figures had disappeared. The witnesses were not sure if these were aliens or spirits.

The witness lived alone in a single family house in a suburb near a large city. He awoke at 2:35 am on Wednesday, left his bedroom (which is a guest room since the temperature in the summer is cooler than the master bedroom); walked down the dark hallway (faintly illuminated by the glow of a bug zapper down the hall used for killing moths); entered the master bedroom; shut the door behind him (except for a crack). He then saw motion in the dark hallway that looked as if someone walked up to the door and was peering at him. Afraid to face the possibility someone was in the house and knowing the house was bolted down like a fortress, he used the restroom without turning on the lights. He then curiously entered the hall and nobody was there, but down the hall, a bright fuzzy white light shone through cracks in a lock room. He thought to himself if it could have been the bright white energy saving front porch light that was had an over 100 watts output. However as he stared at this illumination surrounding the door and emitting through its threshold, it quickly faded out, leaving the faint illumination from the porch light that he had thought about. He immediately realized that someone was in that room shining a bright light that must have been an LED or HID light due to its intensity. After pausing for a moment to think he decided to quickly throw open the door and face whoever was there.
When he did the room was empty. He recalled getting waves of goose bumps all over his body because he knew something unexplainable had occurred. Whoever was in the hallway was the one who disappeared into that room. According to the witness, his family has had UFO visitations all his life, with unusual activity in the homes where he grew up. In the mid-1990’s in his parents’ home he awoke to see a young man in his 20s wearing military fatigues and a helmet at the foot of his bed staring at him. In the blink of an eye he was gone. For some strange reason, his immediate thought when this event occurred was that the man he had seen before was the one in the hallway, although he could not explain why he sensed it was him again. He felt no danger during the encounter.

The witness had stepped outside to have a cigarette and as he gazed at the sky he noticed a strange bright light, brighter than a star in the South Southwest sky just under and to the left of the Big Dipper. It seemed as if it may have been 10 to 20 miles away. It had multicolored lights moving around the bright light horizontally while the bright white light pulsated in a rhythmic fashion. The multicolored lights changed just like a prism or color wheel. This immediately got his attention and he continued to watch for 15 minutes and noticed that it did not move, at least not that he could perceive. He then went to get his wife who also saw and made him aware that there were 2 additional lights pulsating in unison with the initial anomaly. The other 2 lights were smaller and only white in color with no other colors like the other light. All three formed a triangle. The other 2 lights were only visible for 10---15 minutes. They attempted to videotape the lights but due to the ambient lighting nothing came out.
Later around 23:30 the main witness took out the dog and he noticed that the light had disappeared. He scanned the sky and noticed that it was now resting in another area of the sky. He observed it for about 10-15 minutes when he decided to try something. He consciously focused on the object and asked a series of questions in his mind. “What are you?”, “What are your intentions?”, “Where did you come from?”, and finally, “I want to know?” Immediately his son came running out the front door in a panic. He told him that when he came downstairs for a drink he saw a white hooded figure out the corner of his eye. He said that it looked like a white towel floating in the air and it moved. When he turned to look at it, it vanished. He was visibly shaken. The main witness then comforted his son and tucked him into bed his wife was already sleeping at this time. He then went to bed at around 1 am. The next morning his wife told him that she had come downstairs in the middle of the night and saw a hooded white figure with no face in the same spot in the office as his son had seen. They had not spoken to each other. The difference was that she saw it facing her with just a black area where the face should have been. She was also visibly shaken but said she felt at peace and it did not really scare her. Both his wife and son later drew a picture of what they had seen and were very similar. The figure had human shape and was only visible from the waist up. It stood approximately 6’ tall. It moved when it saw the boy and it seemingly stared at the witness’ wife.

The witness suddenly woke up in the middle of the night because she heard a disembodied voice saying, “The Earth has done for you, now you do for your Earth.” She woke up with the last two words still coming from what he expected outside of the window, but it was in the room. There was also an odd red light inside the room which seemed to behave differently than a traditional light. It was a shadowy light. The small wall air condition unit also seemed to be having a difficult time when she noticed that everything seemed to be ‘vibrating’. She was terrified, as it felt that there were people in the room, or at least just outside the window. The red light then subsided and she was no longer able to move from fear. She looked out the window to see if there was a car, or a fire, but there was nothing. The air conditioner was now working fine. She went to the bathroom and still noticed the vibrating. It wasn’t as strong, but she could hear it and almost feel it. She went downstairs half expecting to see something that would terrify her. She then turned on all of the lights, went out the back door and didn’t see anything above the house, or in the street. She also noticed that the vibrating had stopped once she went outside.
