5 Creepy Encounters with the Men in Black

11/17/2019

0 Comments

 
November 17th, 2019 Update: According to a recent Fox News story, witnesses of the now-famous Navy "Gimbal" UFO incident were apparently visited by "two unknown individuals" and were asked to hand over their data recordings of the event. Could this be a new Men in Black case? As always, let me know what you think in the comments, or on the social channels!

Original article
With the new fictional "Men in Black" movie coming out this summer, it is worthwhile to first learn about the very real, nonfictional Men in Black.

If you think aliens, ghosts, and monsters are scary, then consider the Men in Black who investigate them on the regular. We're not talking friendly Will Smith here, but pale, lifeless, black suit-wearing men who show up to paranormal events and have a scary way of making them disappear...

5. Men in Black Question Witness' Family After UFO Abducts Her Boyfriend

Picture
As with UFO and alien sightings, Men in Black sightings are also reported to MUFON. Of all the MUFON reports I've looked at over the years, MUFON case 84106 is definitely one of the more interesting, and creepier ones. Two weeks after a woman sees an ominous, black, cigar-shaped object abduct her boyfriend in the spring of 1982, the infamous Men in Black visit her family home and question her mother and sister. You can read the full testimony right here:
Black cigar,round propulsion opening on bottom lit up with blue ,red light spinning inside,3 small geometric windows top front

Let me start by saying I have only told a few people over the years this story,and was ridiculed so much I am reluctantly telling it now.But the world needs to know.In mid to late May in 1982, my boyfriend (at the time), and I were parking,(making out)in the woods of a restricted area by the power plant in Graham Texas.He needed to go to the restroom so we exited the vehicle.As I stood by his Grandmas old car he went down a small embankment towards the woods.As he went over the barbed wire fence to the trees I looked up and saw an orange light,and white light on an object that appeared to be a helicopter even though there was no noise, it was about a mile or two away coming towards me head on.Being in a restricted area I called out to him several times but my voice would not carry even though I was yelling.By the time I looked back up from yelling(maybe 10 seconds after I saw it) it was right above the trees maybe 50 ft. from me at an angle.IT WAS NOT A HELICOPTER.I was struck with mortal fear as I saw a black cigar shaped object,no propellers,or wings or any thing man made, just a few odd shaped small windows in front.It had a really low hum,with a round circle on the bottom with a blue light inside.A red thing was swirling around in the blue circle.As I heard a hydraulic sounding door open, a beam of white light came out bright as the sun,and the next thing I knew the trees where my boyfriend had gone was lit up and tree limbs,leaves,and then the image of a human was being drawn up into the craft.I freaked out and ran one step to the back door of the old car and then the beam of light hit the car where I had just jumped into the back seat.Even though I shut my eyes as tight as I could I could still see the light through my eyelids and I felt it drawing me out through the car, so I slid in to the floor board and grabbed the springs under the seat to stay anchored all while praying to God they would not take me.After what seemed like eternity,the light shut off and I was too scared to raise up but then I remembered the doors were not locked.So I jumped up to try to see out the windows and lock the doors but the windows were so wet I couldn't see out of them.I cracked a window to yell for my boyfriend.He never answered,scared I began to cry,I couldn't get out and walk to town (about 5 miles),and I was afraid they were waiting for me to exit the car.I would've have flagged a car but none was around.No cell phones back then so I just sat and cried.After exactly 2 hours I saw a bright flash behind the car and seconds later my boyfriend ran up to the car,vomiting,he was ice cold,pale,and seemed to be in some kind of confused,and sickly state.he could not answer any of my questions,he could not talk,or hug,or comfort me in any way.The next day when we spoke he couldn't remember anything past going to the restroom in the woods.However he thought he dreamed of being sexually probed by unknown entities. I started having migraines,rashes,and hair loss afterwards.The Dr's said it was probably just hormones,or something because I didn't tell them what I saw.About 2 weeks after this 2 men in suits came to my house,and questioned my mom,and sister about me,and my whereabouts,and my mom,and sister were very scared of these men,and acted as though I did something very bad..They didn't leave a card,or ever come back.I was 14 then.Emotionally I had a very hard time for many years.I am now 49 and suffer from various auto immune issues that I believe are related.I don't care if anyone calls me crazy now,I know what I saw.


4. 200 Schoolchildren See Flying Saucer... Then the Men in Black Show Up

Picture
The Westall UFO is one of the more famous and well-documented sightings of all-time, as it involved 200+ eyewitnesses, mainly schoolchildren attending two nearby schools in Melbourne, Australia in 1966. For about 20 minutes, a flying saucer was observed descending from the sky and landing in a schoolyard. Many years later, in Zimbabwe, Africa, another similar-looking UFO would also land near a schoolyard in front of 60+ schoolchildren. In that case, actual entities came out of the craft and interacted with the witnesses. Why are these mass UFO sightings not better known? Maybe it's because the Men in Black were on the case.  By 2018, new details about the Westall UFO sighting, including possible involvement of the MIB, were revealed. Initially, it was just the school's headmaster who was trying to quiet the affair. However, several witnesses ended up claiming that "sharply dressed men in black suits visited them and warned them from speaking about the incident."

3. The Spaceman and the Men in Black

Picture
Jim Templeton thought he was taking a simple picture of his daughter one afternoon in 1964. However, when he reviewed the photo later, he noticed a mystery figure in the background.... some say an astronaut, dubbed the "Solway Firth Spaceman." For years, the photo went unexplained, until more recently, when it was suggested the photo was showing the photographer's wife, standing with her back facing toward the camera. Hoax, misidentification, or real photo, it's the Men in Black's interest in it that keeps it in the "unsettling" category. Two men who claimed to work for the government visited Templeton at the time. They went by the code names of #9 and #10 and asked Templeton to take them to the site where the photo was taken. When Miller told #9 and #10 that he had never seen the figure with his naked eye, the "government agents" became angry and swiftly abandoned the site. Considering the Men in Black's fingerprints on this case, it's a case that will probably always remain open.

2. 2016, the Year of the Men in Black

Picture
In 2016, there were a string of Men in Black sightings reported in Iowa, Texas (in Houston and Mcallen), Florida, and Tennessee. In Iowa, creepy men in trench coats were reported lingering around the roadways in the middle of the night and appearing in front of vehicles! In Houston, Men in Black reportedly visited a possible UFO crash. And in Florida, a UFO witness shared with MUFON their belief that they were had been visited by the MIB on two separate occasions. Many scary stories about UFOs and aliens, and even the Men in Black, go back to the 60s or even earlier. But these cases are real recent and so, real frightening!

1. Best Left In the Dark

Picture
On a soon-to-be eerie winter night in 1961, Paul Miller and his friends are returning home from a hunting trip. After seeing a strange luminous tower hovering in the sky, Miller panics, draws his gun, and fires! That's when two human-like entities emerge from the craft. Miller is able to wound one of the humanoids before fleeing the scene in his car. But that's not the end of the encounter... or is it? Miller and his friends all experience "missing time" during their escape, unable to account for at least three hours. When Miller returns to his job the next day, which happens to be in the Air Force, three classic "Men in Black" figures approach him and tell him that they have his files. They also warn Miller that they knew about the "incident" and that it is "best left in the dark." Although Miller rarely speaks about the incident to the public, he was once quoted as saying this about the mysterious men: "They seemed to know everything about me; where I worked, my name, everything else."

The Terrifying Allagash Abductions

6/14/2019

0 Comments

 
(Note: Some skeptics consider the Allagash abductions to be debunked, as one of the witnesses claims that it was a made up story. However, the three other witnesses continue to hold that the incident was real. As always, you be the judge...)

Many know about the 1975 alien abduction of Travis Walton, but what about the encounter from just a year later occurring along the Allagash River in Allagash, Maine? It's just as well-documented, and more importantly, just as terrifying!

In the summer of 1976, twin brothers Jim and Jack Weiner and friends Charles Foltz and Charles Rak were camping along the Allagash River. After arriving at Eagle Lake by canoe, they felt compelled to go night fishing, as they were running low on food and had failed to catch much or anything so far. Before venturing out on the river, they lit a large campfire.

Something stopped them from night fishing that evening, though. Charles Rak - even after recanting his memories of direct alien contact much later on - remembers the UFO sighting, explaining how he "had an uncomfortable feeling of being stared at," which caused him to "(turn) around and (see) this very, very bright globe of light in the sky... changing color from white to red to green in a liquid kind of melding motion."

In other reports, for example on UFOCasebook.com, the mystery craft was described as "a light that seemed much brighter than a star," which changed colors and was estimated to be 80 feet in diameter, and moving slowly over the treetops.

One of the men signaled their flashlight at the weird, luminous craft,  and that is when it traveled directly toward them.

After that, well, it was like nothing had happened. Suddenly, the men were back on the riverbank, and their impressive log fire was now just a pile of ashes. The group of friends were just left with questions, like "how much time had really passed during their short fishing trip?," and "what was that strange light in the sky?," however none of them wanted to ponder any of these things.  The silence didn't last long, though.

Jack Weiner is the first of the friends brave enough to talk about the encounter. He is having nightmares that he just can't keep to himself anymore. They feature strange entities with "large metallic glowing eyes with no lids" as well as insect-like, four-fingered hands. He is also dreaming about "sitting on a bench naked and feeling very fearful."

To his relief, he is not alone in his memories. The other three friends, including his brother Jim, recall similarly terrifying experiences, but only under hypnosis, which was advised by UFO researcher and recent friend Raymond Fowler.

Other details of the encounter are eventually retrieved through hypnosis, including the extraterrestrial craft having a metal, sleek, sterile interior, and the beings having long, slender limbs and fingers, with only four fingers in all, and big, dark,  "metallic" eyes.

According to early sources, all of the men had similar recollections of the scary alien abduction during hypnosis, and each of the men even passed a lie detector test about the encounter.

Many compare the Allagash Abduction incident to the contactee case of Whitley Strieber, a popular American horror novelist who wrote about his personal, frightening encounters with alien entities in the book Communion. Communion was published more than a decade after the Allagash Abduction, however.

Since the Allagash Abduction made headlines, one of the abductees, Chuk Rak, claims that the story of the UFO sighting and the campfire burning out is all true, however he never actually recalled the abduction during hypnosis. The other three witnesses maintain their stories to this day, however, so we are left to wonder... and have bad dreams about... the Allagash Alien Abduction.
If this abduction account and others like it are true (consider Roswell, Whitley Strieber, and Travis Walton), then what does that say about aliens?

Are they friendly creatures peacefully examining us for scientific purposes? Or are are they the unfriendly monsters we see in our nightmares? ... Or could they be a little bit of both?

Is Bigfoot a Ghost or an Alien?

5/14/2019

0 Comments

 
The evidence for the existence of Bigfoot is similar to the evidence for the existence of aliens. There is a lot of it and it is quite compelling. However the evidence comes up frustratingly short - the only photos and videos are vague and blurry, and to this day, no one has turned up a body.

But that doesn't mean Bigfoot doesn't exist. Or aliens, for that matter.
PictureBigfoot Illustration by Claudio Bergamin http://www.claudiobergamin.com/
If one carefully considers the heaping amounts of witness testimony (from modern times and in Native American legend), along with physical evidence like large footprints and audio recordings, it's actually not unreasonable to conclude that some kind of giant, hairy, unknown ape-like creature has been hiding out in the mountains and woods of rural America as well as other parts of the planet for hundreds, if not thousands of years. But why is Bigfoot so good at hiding?

Picture
Some of the more logical scientific explanations for Bigfoot include escaped zoo animals or other misidentified animals. It was only last year, after all, that a new species of giant ape (or more specifically, orangutan) was discovered in Indonesia. Who knows what other strange creatures could be out there lurking in the trees?

But a more interesting and not-so-scientific explanation for Bigfoot that some researchers, including Sasquatch expert Nick Redfern (who I interviewed last year), have come to suggest is that the creature could actually be an inter-dimensional entity, similar to a ghost. That would certainly explain why Sasquatch is so good at disappearing and leaving no trace behind. It's also worth noting that sightings of UFOs and Bigfoot occasionally happen at the same time, and this definitely gives the theory that Bigfoot is from out-of-this-world some weight!

in the summer of 2018, a barrier at the OnLive Hall of Fame cafe in San Antonino mysteriously knocked over. As a result, the cafe owners reviewed security footage to see what happened. They discovered something as creepy as it was incredible - a misty figure moving around on a cafe stool and knocking the barrier over!

3. Video Shows Possible Ghost Sighting at San Antonio Cafe

Picture
In this video, taken during a 2017 paranormal investigation of the Magnolia Hotel in Seguin, Texas, a shadowy figure can be seen slinking through a hotel sitting room. It then turns into a mist that swirls around the screen. Skeptics have suggest this could be cigar or cigarette smoke, but the investigative team Strange Town claim this could be a real video showing a ghost.

Orb Transforms Into Ghostly Figure in Hotel Security Camera Footage

Picture
Hotel security camera footage out of Fort Worth showing an eerie, white orb turning into a full walking figure was uploaded to YouTube back in the summer of 2016, and so far, has never been explained. 

1. Ghost Attack and Wicked Laugh Caught on Camera

Picture

In the #1 Texas ghost video, a paranormal and the KSAT television crew investigated the reportedly haunted old Yoakum Community Hospital together. They did not return empty-handed. Not only did they end up with an amazing EVP featuring a long, giddy female laugh, but one of the paranormal investigators was pushed and then scratched on the neck by an unknown entity.

UFOs are often seen as a bright balls of light floating in the sky. Some UFOs have even been seen hovering close to the ground! Do UFOs and ghosts have more in common than we think?

Haunted Room 525 at the Driskill Hotel

2/4/2019

2 Comments

 
The Driskill Hotel in Downtown Austin, Texas is lovely, luxurious, romantic, historic, and... haunted?

There are many ghost stories that line the halls of the hotel, which was opened in the 1800s and still features many and even creepy oil paintings from the time. The Driskill easily landed a spot on TexasUFOs.com's list of "Most Haunted Places in Texas." But for this article, we're going to focus on what might be the most haunted Driskill hotel room of all... Room 525.

While many parts of the hotel have some haunting history- the original owner died in the hotel and a little girl once fell down the stairs to her death, among other tragic stories.

According to legend, two women who were on their honeymoon stayed in the now-infamous Room 525 together one night. For some unknown reason, both the women committed suicide, and their bodies were discovered in the room's bathroom. These women were given the sad nicknames of the "Suicide Brides" and the Driskill Hotel decided to close the room and put bricks over it. But it is open again today for brave guests. Unsurprisingly, many guests have reported strange occurrences while staying in Room 525. 

Guests who stay in the room sometimes report odd water leaks that don't have any origin, ghostly apparitions (specifically of a bride), and other frightening experiences. 

One couple who adored the hotel and stayed in the room in September 2016ended up checking out in the middle of night after being spooked by flickering lights and mysterious knocks on the door!

Have you ever stayed in the Driskill Hotel? Do you have any ghost stories to share? Would you dare to stay in Room 525? Share your thoughts on this haunted Texas tale and more in the comments or on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram! And consider looking for a ghost on your next stay the hotel, or even on a haunted ghost tour.
