A contemporary report states that a
fleet of “ships” had been seen in the air in some part of the Bay of Fundy. A
frightened girl saw the spectacle and called out and two men that were in the
house went out and saw the same sight, being fifteen ships and a man forward of
them with his hand stretched out. The “ships” traveled eastward. They were so
near that the people saw their sides and ports.

During a period of persecution of
Vietnamese Catholics, these had taken refuge in the deep forest of Lavang. Unexpectedly,
one night they were visited by an apparition of a beautiful lady in a long
cape, holding a child in her arms, with two angels at her sides. The people
recognized the Lady as Our Blessed Mother. She comforted them and told them to
boil the leaves from the surrounding trees to use as medicine. She also told
them that from that day on, all those who came to this place to pray, would get
their prayers heard and answered. All those who were present witnessed this
miracle. After this first apparition the Blessed Mother continued to appear to
the people in this same place many times throughout the period of nearly one
hundred years of religious persecution.

A Methodist minister in the area had
heard tales from his congregation that a certain tree in the woods along the
river was the entrance to an underground lair of little people. The few
remaining Native Americans who still lived in the area confirmed this story.
The minister, in an attempt to prove that there was no validity to the local
superstition, went to the tree with an ax and started to chop the huge tree
down. After striking the tree a couple of times, a hole opened up at the base
and a group of fifteen to twenty small men clambered out and began attacking
the now frightened minister. The little men quickly overcame their much larger
foe and cut his throat with a flint blade. The minister survived his terrifying
ordeal, despite the jagged cut to his neck. However, he never again made fun of
his congregation when they told stories of the little wild men of the woods.

A child name Martha Uncas was traveling

Martha’s mother said: “Don’t look at the dwarfs. They will point their fingers
at you and you cannot see them.” The local Indians called these mysterious
little people the “Makiawisag”. These creatures apparently had the power to
become invisible at will.

A local woman named Rhona was sitting in
her garden knitting when she heard a rustling of the leaves. Thinking of her
sweetheart she pretended not to have heard. Then came a tiny laugh and a
tinkling sound from her rose arbor. Looking up she spied six handsome little
men dressed in green from head to toe, except, that is for a red feather in
their caps. Rhona extended her hand to the group and each in turn alighted on
her offered palm. Becoming totally delighted with them she favored the six with
every courtesy. Suddenly and without warning one of the fairies touched his
fingers to her eyes, plunging her into darkness. In this state of total
blackness she experienced herself moving through what could only be time and
space, But this was more than a three-dimensional flight. Rhona’s flight had
taken her through a fourth dimension. After what seemed like only a few
moments, Rhona felt her feet touch the ground. Opening her eyes she found
herself in the most beautiful and wondrous place she had ever seen. Into her
vision came lush trees, brilliantly colored song birds, flower gardens and castle
of every description shining forth in gold and silver. Each castle in turn
shimmered with diamonds, garnets, pearls and emeralds. Along the streets were
magnificently clad little people promenading, resting, dancing and indulging in
favorite pastimes. Now, Rhona who noted that she was clad in the same fine
manner as everyone else had also become the same size as everyone else. She
immediately thought that she could stay there forever but all at once Rhona was
once again plunged into darkness, whisked through the air and dropped safely
onto the floor of her rose arbor, where a group of people had gathered
concerned over her absence. It is said that for the rest of her life, Rhona was
guarded by the fairies that nourished her with fairy food. At one point local
authorities imprisoned Rhona and refused to feed her, but this did not effect
Rhona at all, for she was fed daily by the fairies during her enclosure.

about 20 feet
in diameter, having a Saturn like shape with the upper dome apparently made out
of glass, and appeared to have transparent sliding doors. The villagers looked
inside the dome and saw some strange lettering and a bottle that appeared to
have water inside. A very beautiful young woman was also seen inside the craft.
She had pale features and had long shoulder length hair. She stepped out of the
object and spoke in an unknown language; she also carried a small box, which
she would not let anyone touch. Eventually she went back inside the craft and
the villagers pushed it out to see where it drifted out of sight.

The reverend Abraham Cummings was
informed that two persons had seen what appeared to have been a specter in a
field. Ten minutes later he went to check the field. At first as he looked
toward an eminence 12 ft
distance from the house he saw what appeared to be a white rock on the ground,
he ignored it. Three minutes later, he accidentally looked again in the same
direction and the supposed white rock was now in the air, its form a complete
globe, with a tincture of red and its diameter about two feet. Curious, he
walked towards it to obtain more accurate information. The globe then
approached to within 11 ft
of the witness, it did so at very high speed. It then instantly assumed the
form of a female dress, but did not appear taller than a girl seven years old.
While he looked upon her, he thought in his mind “you are not tall enough for
the woman who has so frequently appeared among us!” Immediately she grew up as large
and tall as what a normal woman would be. The female entity appeared glorious
and on her head was the representation of the sun diffusing the luminous,
rectilinear rays all around. Through the glow, the witness saw the form of a
woman in a dress. Others apparently saw it in the area accompanied by a small
luminous cloud.

reported the “Specter Battle of Chimney Rock Pass.” The principal witnesses, an
elderly farm couple living in the deepest part of the ravine, described a
battle between “two opposing armies of horse-men, high up in the air all
mounted on winged horses.” The “battle” lasted 10 minutes after the commander
of one army cried “Charge!” the two armies dashing into each other, thrusting
and hacking, the ring of their clashing swords audible, their blades glittering
and flashing in the setting Sun’s rays. When one army was routed and left the
field, the shouts of the victors and wails of the defeated were plainly heard.
On subsequent evenings, the old couple and three “respectable men” visiting
them again saw the “specter troopers”, but not in battle.

Two fishermen were returning from
fishing in Sprey Bay, when about a quarter of a mile from the shore, the sea
being perfectly calm, they observed, at a small distance from their boat with
its back turned towards them, and half its body above the water, a creature of
a tawny color, appearing like a man sitting, with his body half bent.
Surprised, they approached the creature, till they came within a few yards,
when the noise by the boat occasioned the creature to turn about, which gave
the men a better opportunity of observing him. They described his countenance
as swarthy, his hair short and curled, of a color between a green and a gray,
he had small eyes, a flat nose, his mouth was large, and his arms of
extraordinary length. Above the waist, he was shaped like a man, but as the
water was clear the men could perceive that form the waist downwards, his body
tapered considerably or, as they expressed it, “like a large fish without
scales.” The creature then dived and surfaced some distance away and was not
alone. With him was what appeared to be a female of his species for she had
breasts and hair that reached past her shoulders. The two men then rowed as

Martin (addressed him a “my friend”) to go to Tileries and ask an audience with
King Louis XVIII and speak to him on the stranger’s behalf. As night fell, the
stranger vanished. Martin goes home and tells his wife what had occurred, she

In the early 1800’s John Bell moved his
family from North Carolina to the Red River bottomland in Robertson County,
Tennessee, setting in a community that later became known as Adams. Bell
purchased some land and a large log home for his family. The Bells quickly made
many friends and gained prominence in the community. John Bell acquired
additional land and cleared a number of fields over the next several years. One
day in 1817, John Bell was inspecting his cornfield when he encountered a
strange-looking animal sitting in the middle of a cornrow. Shocked by the
appearance of this animal, which had the body of a dog and the head of a
rabbit, Bell shot at it several times without any apparent effect. The animal
then vanished. Bell thought nothing more about the incident---at least not
until after dinner. That evening, the Bells began hearing “beating” sounds on
the outside of their house. These mysterious sounds continued with increased
force each night. Bell and his sons often hurried outside to catch the culprit
but always returned empty handed. The noises were soon followed by more
problems. The Bell children began waking up frightened and complaining of
sounds much like rats gnawing at their bedposts. It wasn’t long until the
children began complaining of more terrifying things---having their bed covers
pulled and their pillows were tossed onto the floor by a seemingly invisible
force.

According to Joseph Smith the most
important visitation happened on this date. He discovered a light appearing in
his room, which continued to increased until the room was lighter than at
noonday, when immediately a personage appeared at his bedside, standing in air,
for his feet did not touch the floor. The entity had no shoes but wore a loose
white robe that shone so brightly that Smith declared that he did not “belied
that any earthly thing could be made to appear so exceedingly white and
brilliant.” The figure introduced himself as Moroni a messenger sent by God.
Moroni had a message for the young man. Smith had been chosen to translate part
of the scriptures then would let the world know the true story of the American
continent. All he had to do was to dig them up at a particular spot on the Hill
of Cumorah, where they had lain buried for centuries, and translated them into
English. Adding a few quotes from the Old Testament for good measure, mainly
about ancient prophesies that were shortly going to be fulfilled. Moroni then
left. This is how Joseph Smith described the moment that this happened: “I saw
the light in my room gather immediately around the person of him who had been
speaking to me, and it continued to do so until the room was again left dark,
except just around him: when, instantly I saw, as it were, a conduit open right
into heaven, and he ascended until he entirely disappeared.” A little while later,
on the same night, the “angel” reappeared in Smith’s room. According to the
visitor, the future was grim, and “great desolations by famine, sword and
pestilence” would be coming. Having related those things, he again ascended as
he had done before. The mysterious Moroni appeared again that night.

Feyodor, the old gardener of the estate
belonging to the Russian Tsar (Emperor) Alexander the First (1777-1825) was
returning home from the christening of his granddaughter. The night was cold
and windy. The witness later was to allege on his deathbed that he was
“completely sober” explaining that he couldn’t use alcohol since birth because
of a distinct allergy to it. The closer Feyodor got to the garden the stormier
it seemed to become. The wind was literally knocking him down when suddenly
everything became quiet. The gardener was amazed by the sudden change in the
weather and looked around. And then unexpectedly the whole garden was lit up by
an unbelievably bright “diabolic” light. Feyodor raised his head to the sky and
saw a huge bluish sphere or globe “as if made out of fire”. The garden became
illuminated just like broad daylight as a result of the light. The old man’s
knees became weak as he then lay down next to a bush to observe what occurred
next. The scene he beheld was spectacular. The globe-shaped fiery object
descended lower and lower straight down onto the garden. Near the ground three
narrow shiny landing props jutted out of the object. And at the same time the
verandah’s door was flung open, and Tsar Alexander the First and his wife
Elizabeth appeared, both casually dressed for a night’s walk. Amazingly, as
appeared to the witness the incredibly sight did not seem to bother them or
affect them in any way. The Emperor then turned to his wife and kissed her on
her forehead; he then sharply turned and began walking along the garden path
towards the fiery globe. The Empress remained standing in place and covered her
face with her palms. The elderly witness then saw Alexander approach the fiery
globe. The Emperor was then levitated into the air and seemed to melt into the
fiery globe. The next second Feyodor lost consciousness and blacked out. Later
he woke up feeling a strong icy wind all around him. In the morning of November
19 1825 at 0900A the death of the Emperor was publicly announced. The empress
testified about the fact. The body in the closed coffin was never examined to
establish the fact that it was really that of Alexander the first. Feyodor only
confessed about the incident on his deathbed and died in complete belief that
the Tsar was taken to God and the skies alive because “of his good deeds”.

part of the creature was about the size of a well-fed child of three or four
years of age, with abnormally developed breasts.” The hair was long, dark, and
glossy, while the skin was white, soft, and tender. The lower part of the body
was like a salmon, but without scales. It was reportedly buried near the sea.

24-year old novice of the Sisters of
Charity, Catherine Laboure, was awakened by a young child, about five years
old, dressed in white who called to her: “Catherine, Catherine, wake up. Come
to the chapel, the Blessed Virgin is waiting for you.” Catherine decided to follow
the child down to the chapel. The candles were burning as if at a midnight
Mass. About 30 minutes later, at midnight, she heard a noise that sounded like
the rustle of a silk dress. When she looked up she saw a beautiful young woman
surrounded by a blaze of white light sitting in the Father Director’s chair.
The child who brought her to the chapel told her: “Here is the Blessed Virgin!”
Catherine fell to her knees and placed her hands on Mary’s lap. During this
discourse with the Blessed Mother, Catherine was warned of dire future
occurrences. Mary told her: “The times are very evil. Sorrows will befall
France; the throne will be overturned. The whole world will be plunged into
every kind of misery.” Catherine was to have another encounter that same November.

Six fishermen reported that their
fishing line had become entangled with a mermaid. They said they had kept her
onboard their boat for three hours, and said that she was about three feet
long. “She offered no resistance nor attempted to bite, but she moaned
piteously.” A few stiff bristles were on top of the head, extending down to the
shoulder, and these she could erect and depress at pleasure, something like a
crest. She had neither gill nor fins and there were no scales on her body. The
men, who were very superstitious threw her overboard eventually and said that
she dived “in a perpendicular direction.”

18-year old Jane Alsop was in her home

Answering the door, a black-cloaked man exclaimed, “I’m a police officer. For
God’s sake, bring me a light, for we have caught Spring Heeled Jack in the
lane.” Jane, who lived with her father and two sisters, went to fetch a light
for the man. She returned with a candle and as she was handing the light to the
man, it shone on his face and she noticed that it was Spring Heeled Jack. He
immediately spat a blue and white “gas” into her face. She attempted to run
back into the house but he held on tightly to the back of her hair. One of her
sisters managed to pull her out of his grasps and drag her back into the house.
Spring Heeled Jack continued banging on the door some time before hastily
leaving. Jane described him as wearing a large helmet and a sort of
tight-fitting costume that felt like oilskin. But the cape was just like the
ones worn by the police officers. His hands were as cold as ice and like

During the night local residents noticed
four fiery columns of light in the clear northeastern sky. The columns or beams
of light were in close proximity of each other, with blue and white shades. The
phenomenon lasted for about 2hours. After that the area became dark again and
the sky again appeared normal. Soon after this observation, bizarre looking
strangers appeared in the Saratov region. These “men” looked aged, like elderly
men, with strange yellow-greenish looking faces, and all the men were
beardless. These strangers visited several villages but never begged for alms.
When the locals attempted to communicate with the strangers these only mumbled
in an unrecognizable language which the Russian villagers could not understand.
So the strangers were then considered eccentric or crazy (if indeed
extraterrestrials, a perfect disguise which did not attract too much
attention). Neither village elders nor district policemen detained the
strangers. But as was found out later the strangers aroused the suspicion of
local representatives and authorities. The strangers seemed to move very
quickly in between villages, and never stayed one night in any of the villages.
But the authorities could never corner or pinpoint the whereabouts of the
strangers. All of the strangers appeared to vanish soon after October 6 1848
when a report was sent to the Ministry of Internal affairs from the town of
Balashov. This report stated that on the above date at around 2100 there was
very bright lighting over the area corresponding with the rumble of thunder
which lighted the sky. And then at 2200 a blood red colored spot appeared in the
center of the sky which was visible for 5 minutes, the spot then took an
elongated form, becoming pinkish in color and moving towards the northwest, in
half an hour the sky appeared to clear and the red “spot” moved to the west and
separated into several dozen cone-shaped columns stretching to the horizon and
becoming dark red in color. After that the north was covered with whitish-red
stripes which slowly drifted towards the west. The phenomenon vanished around
2300.

Devout Catholic Mikoaj Sikatka a local
shepherd was working on a pasture when he saw a beautiful woman. She blessed
God and said, “Mikoaj, tell the people that the punishment for their sins is
approaching. The plague will appear in this area…encourage them to do penance
and prayer. If they are righteous there will be no punishment. Especially they
should pray to the rosary and consider the life of Jesus Christ and his
martyrdom.” Mikoaj was also told that a great war was approaching. She also
asked him to fix up the nearby chapel since there will be many visitors soon.
But the modest and shy shepherd didn’t tell anybody about the encounter. After
a few weeks and while praying in the field he saw the woman again. The
extraordinary looking woman prayed for humanity’s sins, and called for penance
and to pray with the rosary. She then spoke about Polish history and foretold
the rebirth of Poland. She reprimanded him for his passivity in revealing her
predictions. However he became more confused since he didn’t know how. He
shared his views with the woman (Mary?) during a prayer in the woods in August
15. The woods shone with brilliance and he saw Mary for the third time. He had
a white eagle on her chest. She repeated the warnings and added, “I will never
leave the people and will save them just like this white eagle.” She told him
that her image should be removed from the forest chapel and placed in a more
accessible location, since soon pilgrims will be arriving from different
locations in Poland. “A magnificent temple devoted to me will be built there
soon”. And she said to Mikoaj, “Preach about what you have seen and heard” and
as proof she made the old shepherd younger (!).

pale mist of remarkable form, being perfectly circular, slowly uprising from
the neighboring valley. The sun was shining brightly around him from the other
side and as the cloud gradually floated up still retaining its form, which was
very like that of the halo often observed around the moon, he found it present
an inner circle much smaller but well defined, and containing, as in a frame a
human figure of most colossal proportions. Instead of standing aghast in the
mute amaze of motionless horror, as many would have done, he saluted the
specter with a bow, which was returned by the airy phantom with the utmost
promptitude and civility. He then walked away for a little and on returning
found the shadow still visible, which continued to bow and otherwise imitate
every motion he made, thus proving it to be a reflection of his own form in the

inside the cave. This vision seems to have sent her into a state of ecstasy,
since she proceeded to paddle across the stream without being bothered by the
freezing waters. She described the woman as being dressed in white, a white
dress and a blue sash and a yellow rose on each foot the color of the chair of
her rosary. At first she thought she was seeing things and found her rosary.
She attempted to make the sign of the cross but could not get her hand up to
her forehead. The vision made the sign of the cross, and then Bernadette’s hand

seeing anything more. On the following Sunday, she had to pass on her way to
Mass at Bay Settlement this time she was not alone, but was accompanied by her
sister Isabel and a neighbor Mrs. Vander Niessen. When they came near the
trees, the same lady in white was at the place where Adele had seen her before.
Adele was again frightened, and said, almost in a tone of reproach, “Oh, there
is that lady again.” The other two did not see anything, but they could tell by
Adele’s look that she was afraid. Adele then saw the lady disappear as the

her two companions and a man who was clearing land for the Holy Cross Fathers
at Bay Settlement accompanied Adele. As they approached the “hallowed” spot
Adele could see the beautiful lady, clothed in dazzling white, with a yellow
sash around her waist. Her dress fell to her knees in graceful folds. She had a
crown of stars around her head, and her long, golden wavy hair fell loosely
around her shoulders. Overcome by this heavenly light and the beauty of her
amiable visitor, Adele fell to her knees. At this point the mysterious lady
told Adele: “I am the Queen of Heaven, who prays for the conversion of sinners,
and I wish you to do the same. You received Holy Communion this morning, and
that is well. But you must do more. Make a general confession, and offer
Communion for the conversion of sinners. If they do not convert and do penance,
my Son will be obliged to punish them.” Soon the manifestation then lifted her
hands, as though beseeching a blessing for those at her feet and slowly

The Danish brig “Christine” was wrecked
on a desert rock or island several miles in size. The survivors, including a
Mr. Oleson had gathered at the base of a cliff waiting for the end as the waves
dashed & the winds howled on the rocks. Suddenly from high in the air they

was headed straight toward the frightened mariners, who cried aloud in despair.
But suddenly a whirl of wind changed the course of the object and it crashed
against the cliff a few hundred yards from the miserable sailors. Afraid they
crept toward the wreck. It appeared to be a vessel as large as a modern
battleship, but the machinery was so crushed that they could form no idea as to
how the power was applied to the immense wings or sails. Strange implements and
articles of furniture could be seen jumbled in an almost shapeless mass. They
found in metal boxes covered with strange characters what they afterward
discovered to be very wholesome and palatable food, which, with the water in
the rocks, saved them from immediate death. Their horror was intensified when
they found the bodies of more than a dozen men dressed in garments of strange
fashion and texture. The bodies were dark bronze in color, but the strangest
feature of all was the immense size of the men. They were estimated to have
been more than 12 ft
high. They had long hair and beards. They found tools of almost every kind but
to large to be used. One man was driven insane & jumped from the cliff into
the boiling waters. The others fled in horror from the fearful sight. But
hunger forced them to return to the site. After eating heartily of the strange
food, they summoned courage to drag the gigantic bodies to the cliff and tumble
them over. The survivors were finally able to build a raft and left the island.

A remarkable phenomenon was witnessed a
few miles west of this place, at the house of Mrs Pearcy, by Mr. Moses Dwyer, her
neighbor, who happened to be seated in her porch at the time, as well as by
others at or near the house. The weather was quite hot and dry, not a cloud
could be seen, and no wind even ruffled the foliage on the surrounding trees.
All things being propitious the grand panorama began to move---just over and
through the tops of the trees on the adjacent hills on the South, immense
numbers of rolls resembling cotton or smoke, apparently thousands of them, and
were, perhaps, an hour in getting by. After these had passed over and out of
sight, the scene was changed from the air above to the earth beneath, and
became more intensely interesting to the spectators who were witnessing the
panorama from different standpoints. In the deep valley beneath thousands upon
thousands of apparently human beings (men) came in low traveling in the same
direction of the rolls marching in good order, some thirty or forty in depth,
moving rapidly---“double quick,” and commence ascending the sides of the almost
insurmountable hills opposite, and had the stoop peculiar to men when they
ascend a steep mountain. There seemed to be great variety in the size of the
men, some were very large whilst others were quite small. Their arms, legs, and
heads could be distinctly seen in motion. They seemed to observe strict
military discipline and there were no stragglers. There was uniformity of
dress, loose white blouses or shirts with white pants wore hats and were
without guns, swords, or anything they indicated “men of war.” On they came through
the valley and over the steep hill crossing the road and finally passing out of
sight, in a direction due North from those who were looking on. On the 14th of
the same month, the same scene almost identical, was seen by 8 or 10 of our
pickets at Bunger’s Mill, and by many of the citizens in that neighborhood;

Rocky Mountain trapper, James Lumley was
engaged in trapping in the mountains about 75 five or 100 hundred miles above
the great falls of the Upper Missouri when after sunset one evening he beheld a
bright, luminous body in the heavens, which was moving with a great rapidity in
an easterly direction. It was plainly visible for at least five seconds, when
it suddenly separated into particles, resembling the bursting of a skyrocket in
the air. A few minutes later he heard a heavy explosion, which jarred the earth
very perceptibly, and this was shortly after followed by a rumbling sound, like
a tornado sweeping through the forest. A strong wind sprang up about the same
time, but as suddenly subsided. The air was filled with a peculiar odor of a
sulfuric character. On the ensuing day he discovered at a distance of about 2 miles from his camping
place, that, as far as he could see in either direction, a path had been cut
through the forest, several rods wide---giant trees uprooted or broken off near
the ground---the tops of hills shaved off, and the earth plowed up in many
places. Great and widespread havoc was everywhere visible. Following up this
track of desolation, he soon ascertained the cause of it in the shape of an
immense stone that had been driven into the side of a mountain. An examination
of the stone, or so much of it as was visible, showed that it had been divided
into compartments, and that in various places; it was carved with curious
hieroglyphics. More than this, Lumley also discovered fragments of a substance
resembling glass, and here and there dark stains, as though caused by a dark
liquid. He was confident that the hieroglyphics were the work of human hands,
and that the stone itself, although but a fragment of an immense body, must
have been used for some purpose by animated beings. During that time a bright

fear. They beheld, standing to the right of the upper cabin, near the fence
that separated the Negro’s garden from the house yard a creature of gigantic
stature, and the most horrifying appearance. It was nearly as high as the cabin
and had a monstrous head not similar in shape to that of an ape, with two short
white horns above each eye, and it had long arms, covered with shaggy hair of
an ashen hue that terminated in huge paws, not unlike those of a cat, and armed
with huge and hooked claws. Its breast was as broad as that of a large sized
ox, its legs resembled the front legs of a horse, and only the hoofs were
cloven. It had a long tail armed with a dart shaped horn, which it was
continually switching about. Its eyes glowed like two living coals of fire,
while its nostrils and mouth were emitting sheets of blue colored flame, with a
hissing sound, like the hissing of a serpent only a thousand fold louder. Its
general color, save the arms, was a dull dingy brown. The air was powerfully
impregnated with a smell of burning sulfur. The poor Negroes were evidently
laboring under extreme terror, and two of them, an old woman and a lad were
actually driven to insanity by their fears and have not recovered their reason
up to this writing. The strange creature then was enveloped in a spiral in a
spiral column of flame that reached nearly to the top of the locust trees
adjacent, and which hid its horrid form completely from view. The extinction of
the flame was instantaneous, and with its disappearance they were relieved of
the presence of this remarkable visitor. It was reported that the same or
similar creature appeared on several nights at neighboring plantations.

When the day’s work in the mine was over
and all the workers were gathered together waiting for their dinner, we saw
arrive through the air on the side of the mine known as “La Ternera” an
enormous bird that at first we took for the clouds that a that moment were
covering a part of the atmosphere, supposing that it had been separated from
other clouds by a chance gust of wind as the object in question approached, causing
us great surprise, we could see it was an unknown flying object. It was moving
from the northeast to the southeast and its flight was fast and in a very
straight line. It passed over just above our heads and we could see the strange
structure of its body. Its great wings were covered in brownish feathers, the
head of the monster looked like that of a lobster and its eyes open wide and
bright like embers, and it seemed to be covered in something resembling thick
hair, like a sow. Its body was long like a snake’s and only bright scales could
be seen on it, which sounded like metallic pieces when the strange animal moved
them. Surprise soon became panic amongst the workers before such a strange
phenomenon. Some claim they detected a terrible smell in those moments, a smell
similar to arsenic when it is burnt. Others say their senses were not so
injured in such an odd manner. The superstitious believe it was the devil
himself who they saw pass over, while others remember having witnessed in that
city, years ago, the passing of a similar monstrous bird.

Frederick Birmingham was standing on his
cottage verandah when he saw a “vision” of heads floating by him. He then saw
an “ark” flying overhead. A voice told him that it was a flying machine. A
man-like figure then appeared and invited the witness to board the object,
which had landed on a nearby park. The witness was led into a room where he was
shown a paper with an equation written on it. The witness then fell asleep and
then awoke the next morning in his house.

A wonderful phenomenon has recently made
its appearance in this locale about two miles from Brooksville and has been
seen by quite a number of the worthy citizens of the county. On the above date
one of our citizens, a prominent tobacco merchant, residing in Brooksville was
returning home from the southern portion of the county where he had been buying
some crops of tobacco and belated was riding along the road when suddenly he
beheld a most frightful object in the middle of the road, immediately in front
of him. The “object” was about six feet in height and walked upright. The face
was at times that of a man, very pale, with curls of flame falling over his
shoulders, eyes of sulfurous blue, changing constantly in size, one moment
large as a tin cup, and then gradually decreasing in size until it was almost
invisible. Its arms were those of a man, and hands deadly pale. In one hand, it
held a torch, and in the other a sword that seemed to be about four feet in
length. Its lower extremity was that of a horse, with legs well proportioned,
and hoofs as those of a horse. Its tail, which was about three feet in length,
was of flame. Its breath was a solid sheet of fire, which vibrated with the
heaving of its breast, like the pendulum of a clock. It was certainly the most
frightful thing the witness ever beheld. It walked off to the side of the road,
and then vanished. When it disappeared the witness immediately put spurs to his
horse and galloped by the spot where he had seen it. When he arrived at the
summit of the hill, about 200
yards off, he looked back and saw the creature in the
same spot where he had first beheld it. He stopped his horse and watched for a
moment, it walked over to the left side of the road and mounted a rail fence
that stood there, and commenced running toward the witness. The witness did not
stay to see remainder of the drama. He immediately rode to town, and having
told the adventure to some of the citizens, they immediately formed a party and
started out to see the strange visitant. When they arrived at the spot, some of
them beheld the specter and the others could not see it. It was when they saw
it on the fence, and running rapidly along up and down it passed the crowd for
the distance of a quarter of a mile. About 2300 it vanished and was seen no
more that night. Since then it has been on hand every night, and the excitement
is at a very high state now and is increasing.

A man named Silas Brown who lived at the
edge of a wooded area reported that for the last few weeks he has had visions
or encountered an alarming character in the nearby forest but more particularly
in the copse adjacent to Mr. Brown’s barn and stable. At numbers of times has
an immense figure been seen passing to and fro near the barn, with large horns
and terrible claws, which it contracts to a sort of hoof, and has assaulted Mr.
Brown, when he attempted after dark to feed his horses and stock, in such a
manner and with such violence that he has been compelled to flee to his house
for safety. The figure, to the best of Mr. Brown’s recollection seemed about
three times as large as a man in its front, and having a back converging from
its neck and shoulders horizontally to the distance of some six to eight feet,
and supplied on each side with huge and tremendous arms. It is of a pale bluish
color when first seen, but upon being irritated by the near approach of any
person becomes a deadly white, and issues from its surface a small volume of
smoke, accompanied with a sickening smell. This ghoul or unnatural and horrible
animal or demon, has been see as often as four times near Mr. Brown’s stable,
and when seen, it has lingered till its deadly effluvia has completely
impregnated the surrounding atmosphere. One evening Mr. Brown, desiring to have
another beside himself see this terrible visitant, induced a courageous
gentleman called Siger, who happened with his wife to spend the evening at Mr.
Brown’s to go to the stable to feed his horses. Siger, not believing the story,
went without hesitation, when, upon entering the stable, he was alarmed by the
fall at or near his feet, with a deep rumbling sound, of a tremendous stone.
Siger without looking to see whence the rock came, picked the stone up, and it
was so hot that he was compelled to drop it. Upon looking up he beheld the
unearthly monster not over fifty yards from him, and the air became quickly
filled and inoculated with brimstone. Not wishing to be thought a coward, he
did not mention anything of this at the house, but upon walking home with his
wife the same night he told her of what happened at the stable, and instantly
she became alarmed, and was carried home in a state of apparent insensibility.

A man named Just encountered a small
man, that wore brown clothing, without any buttons, and on its head he had a
large hat. The small man claimed he was an angel and opened up his coat and a
bright light shone from inside of it. Apparently the small man gave the witness
a letter of “heavenly” origin.

Three men working on splitting posts and
rails for fencing were startled to see a small white object of no particular
form, on the ground nearby. The object suddenly grew into a white eight-foot
tall humanoid figure. One of the men struck it with a stick and it sounded
hollow. The figure then chased the men. The men encountered this same figure on
another occasion and also saw a strange animal resembling a dog with a chain
attached to it.
