In this first story a woman claimed to ufologist Margaret Fry that "Space People" continued to communicate with her after an encounter.
These are the notes Margaret made in her files from the first phone conversation she had with Mrs A on January 23, 1986:
- She saw a UFO land at the top of Halkyn Mountain in 1982
- Since claims they are telecommunicating with her
- UFO had three legs
- Left markings on mountain top
- Other witnesses
Margaret writes, 'about a week later a newspaper reporter rang me and said that another two witnesses - both taxi drivers - had seen a UFO pass about 150ft above their vehicles in Connah's Quay, Flnitshire. They told me they had picked up other passengers who claimed to have seen something too. We all agreed to meet at Mrs A's home which had panoramic views of Halkyn Mountain and the Dee Estuary. Her husband was just as sociable and very supportive of his wife. Their children popped in and out. The household had a normal and happy atmosphere. Mrs A began to tell her account:
On July 12, 1982 she went to let out her son's dog. As she opened the door she was standing in a long porch room. Standing there she was frozen to the spot with fright as she saw what she supposed was a meteorite hurtling towards her. This came to rest just above a tree over her neighbour's home, a few yards from where she was standing. It made a deep, powerful humming sound, was a round, yellowish orange in colour and had two rings. The inner ring was dimmer with same-coloured knobs dotted about in it. The outer ring was brighter although it defused no rays of light. When she tried to move her feet felt stuck to the ground. She did not call out to her husband. When she found she could move, she raced upstairs to take a better look through a bedroom window but the object had gone. After this event her eyes were sore and she could hardly stay awake for three weeks. The dog appeared to be the same.
At the time another villager, a Mrs B said she had seen a very large bright green eight-sided object with hexagonal myriads of lights on it. Mrs A said she had spoken to a workman in the village who claimed to have seen an object as large as a house, resting on the church roof in November 1982.
Around the same time an elderly gentleman had visited her home one afternoon. He just fell asleep in the armchair, during which time she saw green ribbons of light dancing all round him.
On November 10 1983 Mrs A was had been working on some needlework late into the evening. She decided to sleep in the spare bedroom when she eventually went to bed at 3am. But she was disturbed by a bright light and saw a face at the bedroom window - 20 feet off the ground. In an instant, Mrs A alleges the man then appeared before her inside the bedroom.
He was about 35-years-old had an olive complexion, curly short dark hair and he was dressed in an all in one mid blue suit. He was staring at her but she was not afraid as he conveyed a calmness. He asked her to turn off the light and greeted her with two fingers in a V sign. He then vanished and Mrs A fell asleep.
From then on Mrs A claims she has received messages from space people to this day, including warnings of floodings and an earthquake. It is every field investigator's dream to be involved with such cases. I cannot believe that people in such diverse walks of life could be deluded, dreaming or imagining all this. In closing, I do have theories which I would be pleased to exchange with fellow researchers.

Over the many years playing and living on Halkyn Mountain I have witnessed two strange things in the sky, the first being in the early 80s. Me and my childhood friend were playing by the old Halkyn lead mine as we did on most summer evenings when to our amazement we saw a large object doing tricks in the sky. As we sat watching this object we made up our own minds what we thought it was and to this day I ponder on what this object was. The second time was 2000ish I was travelling over the windmill towards Halkyn late one night and visibility was low due to fog so was travelling at low speed just when I started to go down the straight next to the old rake a large shadow appeared over my car and passed over my car. Then the car just lost power and stalled. I free wheeled the car down the hill to by where Halkyn bus stop is now. On that I walked home and phoned my mate to bring jump leads. When I made my way back to the car to wait for a jump start I turned the key and everything worked as normal and never again did I have a fault with that car.

I have a message to those who say "I don't believe." If you don't believe, why are you reading these stories? Why are you wasting your time trying to change the minds of those who do believe (let alone people you don't know)? The universe is so vast, how could you be so closed minded to suggest it isn't a tiny bit possible to be true? We are still finding creatures on this planet we thought to be extinct, or not alive in the first place. And who said aliens had to be from outer space? We don't even know what's on the bottom of our own oceans. We have records of things from millions of years ago, why couldn't these aliens be a surviving creature from that time? None of us know what is out there, or what's here.

I have an open mind to extra-terrestrial life as I myself have seen such a phenomenon. When I was about 10 I was on a cub scout trip to a jubilee. I was in the coach looking out of the window, bored as hell, when my heart skipped a beat. I saw a spherical metallic object hovering above a forest of pine trees. I nudged my friend sitting next to me and he saw it too. There were no obvious doors or windows to the craft. It had a metal ridge going round the centre and a small pointy spike on top. It didn't seem to be revolving or moving at all. It was unnaturally still. There wasn't a cloud in the sky and the sun was shining. I could tell it was metallic because it was reflecting the sunlight. It was strange. Another encounter I had was when I was 11. I had been put to bed around 8pm. I couldn't sleep so I sat on my windowsill and looked out of the window. At around 8.30pm I saw an orange light in the sky. I couldn't move although I think that was due to my own fear rather than a paranormal phenomenon. It zoomed at an amazing speed behind some trees where I could see it hovering. I heard my dad next door in his bedroom so I ran into his room and told him there was a UFO outside. He laughed and when we got back to my window it had gone. I believe the Government know that aliens exist but they don't know much about them so they don't want to disclose any information to us. Imagine you flicked on the news and the government had said that aliens exist but they don't know what they want with us or how technologically advanced they are. Everyone would get scared and loot stores and stuff. Also I have my own personal theory that the government are using bits of crashed alien craft to help develop new technologies of today. I mean in school you get taught who invented the lightbulb and the telephone, but who invented the resistor or all the little tiny components on a microchip? And all the really complex stuff like plasma screen TVs, did some guy really think that stuff up on his own? I mean when I post this I'll get loads of people saying who did invent them and that I'm stupid for not knowing but think of other stuff that comes out on the technology market and all the bits in them and how they work. You'll have to admit...we didn't work out how to develop this stuff on our own.

About a week ago me and 15 of my mates were down at our local Asda/Mcdonalds in Barnsley at round about 11.45pm stood next to our cars talking. The next min something was in the sky, looked like a candle on fire but it was travelling pretty fast just was like a ball of fire, just floating. It was a clear night so we could have seen if it was a hot air balloon but it wasn't and every 10 mins another one would come flying over our heads, I'd say round about half the size of Big Ben above us just floating in different directions. The next min there was a trolley just moving by itself down the car park and there was no one near it. 2 mins after another one did it and all 16 of us saw it. After the first 2 the police helicopter was up for about 2 hours then when it came back 30 mins later and there was still the fire balls coming they stopped round about 3.30am. Was really weird to say 16 of us saw it all sober and drug free so it was pretty freaky then there was other things happening round the UK and there was other people that saw the same things as us all the way over in Wales and London, basically everywhere. Was on the net on MSN news a few of my mates said but that was one freaky night. Oh and before you say we sound like kids we're not - the ages start from 20 to 30 and we're not boyracers at all we're enthusiasts that are all in owners' clubs.

It is very easy to be sceptical about all of this, but there are actually indepth reports and witness testimony. All you need to know is in what is called the Disclosure report. Google it.

Last night 26/6/2008, I was so scared, I saw a bright light in the sky at around 12.30am then at about 12.45am, a police helicopter was hovering and kept going up to the bright light, it had the search beams on but they were facing up in the sky, the helicopter had to go and refuel I suppose, because there was no sign of it for about an hour. Then at 1.45am the police helicopter was back, only this time it went even closer to the bright light in the sky, then it seems to have scared the bright light because it shot off like a dunt no wot. Anyway I have never been so scared in my whole life, could someone please answer this question - "what do they want?" 'Cos it beats me? My dad told me they are doing a sweep, taking photographs of the place, then they know where to go, I told him if they're doing that why waste their time, why not go on google earth?

Natalie Lewis asked: "If aliens did exist, how the hell did they make their UFO crafts?" How could we possibly know, Natalie? If they do exist, and happen to be visiting us, it's very likely that they are more advanced than we are. There are many things which our current knowledge consider to be impossible but are not actually impossible according to the laws of physics.

To be honest, we have no real proof. The pictures could well be bugs or something. If aliens did exist, how the hell did they make their UFO crafts? If you can answer that for me then I might start to believe.

I don't believe in all this UFO stuff. I think it's people trying to cause another fight with each other. Can people not just accept the fact that if there was anything going on then the government woould have told us, or could be hiding it for our safety so just leave it and get on with your lives. If you are hurt by any of the so called aliens or UFOs then leave it alone, they are not harming us so why should we bother with them.

Some folk find it hard to believe their own eyes, however when four people see the same thing it's hard to dismiss. Anyway, I had just collected my wife, my daughter and her friend from Tiger Tim where they worked and was driving back to Holywell down past the church in Halkyn. Just past the church you come across a tight left bend, as I approached the bend my eyes were fixed to a glowing spherical object straight ahead on top of a hedge, it was approxtimately a metre in diameter, it's lucky the girls shouted as we may have been in a serious accident. Anyway, I managed to keep my Landrover on the road, everyone was shouting, 'what the hell was that?' I looked in my mirror and the sphere or whatever it was was following us. Next thing it was was right alongside us as though it was watching us. After perhaps a minute it just disappeared. This happened a little after 10pm in 1992 and I can still see the thing as clear today. It travelled alongside us in perfect view. It appeared to be glowing from the inside and was a perfect sphere. I'm not the slightest superstitious nor believe in UFOs, but this thing frightened the life out of us all, and certainly makes me think 'is there something out there?'

About 10 years ago I went to get in my car to go to work as a taxi driver in Melton Mowbray, it was 10.30pm. I heard a loud aircraft and looked up to see a single ball of light (that's all I can describe it as). I watched this light but it vanished. I looked around me and seen it in another spot and then vanish a little further on. In fact, if I blinked I would lose it to find it in another area - but this jet went chasing it. It was eerie, later on - about 2.30am - I was driving a customer home through Hoby and noticed a strange object hovering above some trees, loads of lights around it too. It didn't feel right, so I asked the person next to me what is that, he couldn't answer me, so I stopped the car and switched off my lights and engine I wound my window down. There was no sound coming from this UFO. Within what seemed an eternity this UFO just hovered there above the trees and then it rose higher (still no sound) then it rose into a cloud and just sped off very quick. Later on that evening I went to fill up the car with fuel and observed a light in the sky. Another taxi driver was there too and said to me that he had seen that light all night in all places. Later that week our local paper asked for people to come forward with any sightings of UFOs, it was something I had never seen before.

Well, not saying it is a ufo but me and my friend were stargazing and we saw a star that started flashing and it zipped across the sky, then we watched a star flash yellow then red then blue then it disappeared and when reappeared it was white and it had a star on either side of it in a perfect line and it shot off in the same way.

I had very clear daylight sighting on December 16 2005 while driving back from Widnes to my parents house in South Liverpool I was gobsmacked by what I saw in the sky. It was a bright, sunny day around midday, visability was excellent. At first I thought it was a large advertising blimp but as I kept looking at it I realised it was nothing I have ever seen before - it was cigar-shaped, shiney, metallic with blacked out windows towards the front and fins on the side. I was looking for a tether or some way of explaining what I was seeing but there was none. My mother in the front passenger seat saw it and was equally at a loss for an explanation.

Mrs A said she is still receiving messages from space including floodings & an earthquake. In the last five years there have been more floodings than ever before & there has always been bad earthquakes but "an earthquake" as Mrs A mentioned, has just happened in the Indian ocean causing tsunamis to flood 11 countries. At the last count the death toll was 100,000 & rising. Coincidence? I think not. If this is the case then a recent dream should leave me terrified. I dreamt I was standing on a beach in Northern France, somewhere near Calais, and all of a sudden the sea receded a long way into the English Channel. Looking out, we became aware of a solid, very very high black wall that was racing towards us. Everyone in the dream realised at once this was a tsunami and we all ran for cover. I became separated from the person in the dream who was my "wife" (not the same person as in real life) and felt the loss acutely. I remember taking shelter in a shop or cafe some way inland and searching for a stair to get above water level. Then the wave surged down the street outside... After that, I was part of a group walking down a French country road to a "refugee camp", still missing my dream-wife. So how do I read this dream? It fitted the known facts about a tsunami - the sea does recede a long way out which goves an advance warning before it hits. But then again, in the aftermath of the Thailand tsunami, we all became clued up very quickly on what happens and how. (so no mystery there - we've all been conditioned). The fact that my "wife" in the dream was not the same person who plays the role in real life suggests that this was nothing more than a very vivid dream. Be cautious of seeing your dreams as prophetic - if we all have four or five dreams a night then sooner or later one is going to be right, if only by coincidence!

I believe in everything from ghosts to ufos. I think that I have seen one. One day I was looking throw the window and I looked up. And there was a circular thing rotating in the sky. Kept looking and I saw something like a hand in the sky. I grabed my binoculars and looked up and it was a hand. I told my mom and she looked too and she saw the same thing.

Just a thought about the nature of one sort of UFO (in the precise sense of 'unidentifiable flying object', not necesarily 'little green humanoids from Alpha Proxima'). I was standing at the kitchen window in a friend's house in Buckley, looking out over the garden. The day was overcast but with a bright winter sun. Cloud cover was 100%, and it had the sort of uniform steely-grey quality that suggested snow on the way. I was watching a recognisable medium-sized bird in the garden, possibly a woodpigeon. At ground level it was clearly and definitely a bird, it could have been nothing else, with a variably light grey plumage. As it took off in flight and soared to about twenty feet, a strange trick of the light happened: the light caught it from an angle that made the bird glow silvery-white, as if it was made of metal. This light effect persisted as it gained height, banked at an angle, and soared off. Had I not watched it continuously from the ground and known it was just a bird, I might have been tricked by the strange light effect into thinking it was a UFO a long distance away, not a bird fifty yards down the garden. In the interests of science I watched other birds in the garden: without exception these showed normal plumage at or near to ground level, but the moment they were at rooftop height this strange trick of the light kicked in and they reflected back in metallic colours, ie the darker the bird, the darker the metal (some birds appeared gunmetallic-blue or grey). At very close quarters, a bird's wing, say a starling or a magpie, has a metallic sheen to it - apparently this is due to natural oils in the feathers and the way the feather pattern reflects light. So perhaps the natural light that day intensified this effect and made it apparent from a greater distance. I just wonder how close I got to seeing a 'UFO' that morning, and if any other readers have had the same experience?

I see ghosts everywhere because a bomb hit Essex some time ago, now on the streets I see people running with gas masks on then round a corner they disappear. I thought I was hallucinating at first but then my friend saw them too. Now I think we are going to make a club to make sure we can get back to normal and not see them because we might be hallucinating.

To start with Ufo's are omni dimensional with different rules than our present environment. Why they persist in basically annoying us I cannot answer, but I can tell you that they delight in making us believe that they are all powerful entities with technological prowess above and beyond our own. This is an illusion and basically they are masters of such, possessing knowledge of psychological warfare that most of the population cannot fathom. You will never see one land on the White House lawn. That's why the government won't disclose. They still don't really have an answer for us!

UFOs are definitely real. I don't have any concrete evidence but if you think logically Earth cannot be the only planet which can have life on it. There are billions of planets out there. Surely, there can be intelligent life out there.
I've not seen UFOs up close but have seen them from very far. UFOs appear every year on Mumbai skies for one month starting mid-April to Mid-May. I've seen groups of planes in the sky which suddenly seems to stop in the middle of the sky and then play around. What I mean is that they hover around in any direction they want to and very effortlessly. Whenever they would appear to be approaching closer, me and my brother would run inside our home. I first saw it when my brother pointed it out to me in 10th std. the year would be 1992-93.

When I was about 15 years old me and my grandmother were sitting outside her house on a bench talking. We seem 2 see somfin a red light come from the sky and hover above above a field atleast 200 yards away, what it was I have no idea but it was like nothing that could possibly come from this planet. Ever since that day I have never doubted what people say they have seen coz what I saw was no eye or mind trick.

I live in Connah's Quay and one day whilst walking my dog up the local park I noticed two bright lights hovering about 2 feet off the floor. It was pitch black but I could clearly c these lights, they were about 3 feet apart. As I grew closer I heard a hummin noise so I dived out of the way. The lights passed me with the shadow of this box like contraption followed by two red lights. It seemed to turn on to Wepre Drive and sped off. What it was I don't know.

I would like to believe it but why would they travel 100,000 light years to hide in forests and behind trees? Even if it is true, why would they want to look at us, to them we're like cavemen?

Give me a break. We are speaking of a highly evolved species that most likely had a good 100,000 year jump on humans. They spend significant amounts of effort into developing interstellar travel and have finally polished their efforts to be able to travel millions upon millions of light years and they decide to come secretly hide in our sky and abduct members of our species for over 100 years.
This argument is so unreasonable that its hard to fathom that anyone would actually believe it. We are speaking of a species that have figured out how to cover great distances of space in a relatively reasonable amount of time and we are assuming their other technologies are lacking by such leaps and bounds that they don't have a better way to study our species than spending years upon years hovering in our atmosphere waiting until night time to sneak into our houses and take one of us?
Its been speculated that many of the cases where people believe they have been abducted by "aliens" just have a semi common sleeping disorder called sleep paralysis. This is, from what i understand, a situation where your eyes open while you are still asleep and you are unable to control your body, all the while still dreaming or hallucinating.
As far as drawing a similarity between Christ and Aliens, thats just absurd. There are written documents, recorded artifacts, even places of worship that verify the life of Christ. We have no tangible or verifiable evidence or extra terrestrial life or there would be as many believers in aliens as there are in Jesus Christ.
There could be extra terrestrial life, who knows? No one on planet earth, because there hasn't been a single extra terrestrial or UFO that has visited our planet.
