The number of UFO sightings in South East Essex is soaring, say experts.
|
|
And 19 families in the last year claim to have made contact with a creature from out of space-some "losing" up to three hours of their lives after their close encounters.
|
|
Sheridan Lane, of the East Anglian UFO and Paranormal Association, said 1,400 sky searchers contacted them between July 1988 and July this year.
|
|
She said: "The number of sightings has dramatically increased. There seems to be more and more visitations by inidentified objects.
|
|
"Nineteen people have told us that they have made contact with an alien. In most cases individuals have been driving along when their car has suddenly stalled.
|
|
"In most cases their memories have been vague as to what has actually happened but the amount of time they have lost has varied between 20 minutes and three hours."
|
|
In the last fortnight dozens of people have contacted the society's hotline to report sightings.
|
|
On September 29, two penioners on their way home from bingo in Southend report seeing a huge object, much bigger than an aeroplne. It was diamond shaped with a brilliant white light shining through two windows.
|
|
Earlier that night a man in Stanford-le-Hope asid he saw a triangular object above his house.
|
|
On the same night a Basildon couple watched an object with red, green and white lights hovering above the Basildon telephone exchange.
|
|
ON October 1, a widower in Tilbury was woken from his sleep at 12:12am by a bright white light which lit up his whole bedroom and garden.
|
|
On October 2, a husband, sife and daughter walking their dog along Underhill Road, South Benfleet, spotted a triangular shaped object. It was very large with red, green, blue and white lights. It sped away after they had watched it for 20 minutes.
|
|
And on October 4, a couple in Canvey saw a huge saucer shaped like a skate fish at 9:30pm.
