18 UFO Sighting Stories
17. “In 2007, we were returning one evening from visiting my mother. We live in a very hilly, thickly forested area of Washington State. We were in our minivan with my husband driving; I was in the front passenger seat, and our 8-year-old daughter was seated behind my husband. As we crested a hill less than a mile from home, I saw a large, red blinking light just above the the treetops near our house.
“I became angry and voiced my concern that a cell tower must have been installed. I lost sight of it as we continued down the twisting road, but kept searching for it to determine it’s exact location.
“As we came closer to our house, I spotted it out of my side window. It was not a cell tower, but was a UFO. I told my husband to stop, which he did in the lane we were in. He and my daughter could not see it from their side of the vehicle and because of heavy tree cover. I rolled down my window to be sure what I was seeing. At was a huge triangular shaped craft, very still and quiet. It was just above the treetops, maybe 300 feet or so in elevation. The bottom of it was all I could see — it was at least 60 feet in length on each equal side. The center had one large red pulsating light, each of the three corners had smaller, steady lights that changed colors.
“I found myself totally fascinated by what I was seeing, told my husband and daughter it was a UFO, and suddenly, all of its lights went out. I thought to myself, Oh no, I can’t see it now, and as if it heard my thoughts, it was suddenly washed in a soft, indirect lighting with no obvious source. I could then see the gunmetal gray color of it, and that there was a ‘rib’ of raised metal from each corner light to the center one. I was almost ready to get out for a better look when my husband broke the spell and asked if we should pull off the road and park to avoid a collision if a vehicle should come along. I suddenly became very fearful for the safety of our child and urged him to drive the 500 yards to our house which he did.
“The first thing I did when when we arrived home was to check for missing time, and thank God we didn’t have that problem. It all happened so fast. I was the only one in the van to see it, and although my husband believes me, I don’t think he understands how large and close it was.”
