HBCC UFO Recently Reported Sightings

Release Date:  August 4, 2005


Brian Vike, Director of HBCC UFO Research will be talking UFOs on one of London Ontario's rock station tomorrow morning. This will include speaking on the large drop in reported sighting from all across Canada. Sighting reports that have been reported in Ontario and how witnesses can identify normal aircraft which get mistaken as an unknown.

Also I will be speaking to numerous newspapers across British Columbia, Canada, in hopes of trying to gather many of the sightings that have not been reported to myself or any other organizations. There are so many unknowns we all don't hear about. I would like to stress that if anyone has experienced something very unusual and the report goes back many years, please feel free to file a report as every sighting is so valuable to myself and others.

Lastly, Every report is important, even if it is lights in the sky, maybe making some unusual maneuvers, etc. Sometimes folks believe these types of reports are not worth reporting, but each of them are extremely important. For example, the Missing Time case in Kelowna, B.C. Reports came in from different witnesses telling me they saw green lights, these green lights which some might think not to be valuable turned out to be good evidence to show something major had taken place, in other words, it was more information for me to build up an amazing case.

Thank you, Brian

Foley's Department Store In Down Town Houston Haunted

Date:  1994

It was in 1994 I was working through a temporary agency as a data entry clerk. I was assigned to work at the Foley's Department Store in Down Town Houston on Main street, taking credit applications over the phone. They were having what they called "A RED APPLE SALE." These sales sometimes start from 6:00 am and end after Midnight.

I was working the evening shift in the credit department. Just before 9:00 pm the computers for the credit card applications went down so nearly everyone in that department were told to take breaks. So I decided to get up and stretch my legs and head for the ladies room and do what girls do, refresh my make up. I told a co-worker where I was heading and asked her to come and get me as soon as the computers came back up.

I  believe I was on the 9th floor. Over the years Foley's had been remodeling their Downtown building and so many of the floors had changed but still had the old building layout. The employee's restrooms were in an area of the store where they placed and stored un-used inventory. There was a very long narrow hall way that you had to walk down that was dimly lit and lined with storage lockers for the employee's. I believe this area was where the customer restrooms were located during the early years of the store. That night I made my way to the ladies rooms. The doors of these old restrooms where old metal doors that were very heavy and noisy when they opened and closed.

When you entered this particular restroom it was divided into 3 parts. To your left were the hand sinks and a large mirror above them and along side the wall was a full dress mirror. In sort of in the center of the room was another door,  This door was very heavy and noisy also. It led to another room that housed the toilet stalls, there are no exits and no windows in this area so you have to leave the same way you came and to the right was a sort of dressing area with a small sofa and chairs.

I entered the restroom and went straight to the mirror and started removing my make up from my purse. Before I could pull all of it out the door behind me opened and in walked a little old lady.

She was about 5 feet tall. She was the color of a brand new white linen sheet, she was  in a pea green skirt set. With a lime colored scarf. She had a matching hand bag that had a pair of dark cream color gloves protruding from the flap of the purse. Her hair was so perfectly white and well groomed that not one hair was out of place. She had on a pea green felt like hat with a lovely feather in it. Around her neck was the largest pearl necklace trimmed in gold that I had ever seen. Her ear rings and bracelet also matched. She also had on pea green leather shoes with large square gold buckles on top of them and her legs were pale, pale white like her face. I turned from the mirror and looked at her directly and I assumed that she was a lost customer and said  "Mam you really shouldn't be in this area of the store, this area was meant for employee's only."

She never turned her head to look at me. She walked up to the wall mirror just in front of her and placed two large bags in front of it. And said really loudly "Gal watch my bags and have a warm damp towel ready for me when I come out." Ok like I sort of arched my eyebrow's and said what. The woman just went into the stall area without another word. I was bewildered and looked down at the bags. They were Christmas bags. Filled with Christmas gifts and children's toys. Not plastic toys but wooden ones and a few of them were covered with Christmas wrapping paper. I didn't touch them, but I did think that it was odd. Actually I had an attitude about me because she called me "Gal " I am black and its an insult. So I turned and went back to putting on my makeup.

Not less then 5 minutes had gone by when the door behind me opened again it was my co-worker, she walked in half way and said "The computers are back up now and we are behind breaks over." I stopped her before she could leave and just then I heard one of the toilets in the other room behind the door flush.

I explained to my co-worker that I couldn't leave just yet there was a little old lady in the stall area and I was watching her bags. I pointed to the two large bags on the floor in front of the dressing mirror. She said, "You know better then that!  The customers or not suppose to be on this floor." My co-worker finished pushing her way in and rushed to the other big heavy door and opened it. She went immediately from stall to stall and I could hear her saying "Mam, Mam."

Then she came right out and stated that there wasn't anyone in the stall area. I said "yes there is, she hasn't come out for her bags." we both looked at the area where the bags were and there was nothing there.  My co-worker looked at me and said "you must have moved the bags?" I said "To where, and you saw how big those bags were and they were full and you heard the toilet flush."

Just then my co worker looked at me and her eyes became as large as golf balls, she backed her way out of the room and at the same time looking at me really strange. Once she got past that door she went down that storage room hall way so fast that I had to break out running to catch up with her. She refused to speak to me or look back after I called out her name.

When she went back to her work station she still refused to speak to me. I had one more break before it was time for me to go home and I went back to her workstation to ask her what was wrong. She was gone. Later that week the supervisor of my area questioned me about a report I had given that, I saw a customer in the employee's restroom, a restricted area. I was reminded that I was suppose to immediately escort them from the area and nothing more was said about the incident. The truth of the matter was I had not reported any such thing. I am thinking my co-worker did, not to mention she never came back to work. I personally went out of my way to go to other restrooms in that building to avoid a repeat. I sat down weeks later and thought to myself. Why would anyone have on such heavy clothing as that little old lady did and it was mid June and her bags where filled with Christmas gifts, but I know what I saw was real.

One thing I remembered about the little old lady was her scent. She smelled like powdered makeup and her perfume was a soft spice scent. I remembered this because while cleaning out my mothers old bed room after she died. I ran across her old powder make up box. It has this very distinct odor to it that the manufacturers put in it and it was a gift to her from on of her employers. Every now and then I smell this scent and it reminds me of her. My mom passed in 1991. Anyway I was watching on the news some years back on a Halloween night and they were talking about some of the hunted places here in Houston and they mentioned Foley's Downtown store as one.


Thank you to the person for the interesting story.

Eagle River, Wisconsin Cluster Of Lights Darting Around The Sky

Date:  Summer 1995
Time:  2:00 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 7
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Cluster of 5 or 6 different colored lights.

Full Description of event/sighting: We were camping, sitting around a fire for hours at the end of a dirt road in a remote area of Northern Wisconsin. One of my friends noticed the cluster of lights first, rising on the eastern horizon heading towards the middle of the sky. I saw a cluster of 5 or 6 different colored lights, red, blue, green, sort of circling in and out of each other. When they reached the center of the sky the cluster began to dodge and fly around at sharp angles and at speeds that were unexplainable. Literally dodging one quarter of the visible horizon, then back again, in a random pattern. When it finally reached the western horizon, maybe five minutes later, it turned into one red glowing dot, that stayed just above the horizon for an extended period of time, maybe a half hour, then it too finally disappeared. All but one in our group believed we saw something "unexplainable", the other thought it was an airplane. I've never seen anything move like that.  It didn't make a sound, it seemed to be very high in the air, just slightly brighter than most of the stars. Whatever it was it silenced our otherwise talkative group.  To this day it's the one firm sighting I've witnessed

Thank you to the witness for the interesting report.

Leander, Texas Object Hovering Over Witnessed Home

Date:  December 2004
Time:  11:30 p.m.

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Bright light that flashed and turned.

Full Description of event/sighting: While sitting in car with my son's girlfriend (car was running to keep us warm) a bright light lit up the entire yard & driveway (we live on several acres). She looked backwards thinking someone was driving into the driveway, and as I looked up through the windshield the light was hovering over our house approx. 20 feet off the ground, just a few feet above the house. No wind was blowing. I stared at the light and as I did the beam flashed several times (5-6) and each time it flashed it turned (hard to describe without drawing a picture) the light was coming from some sort of a circular cylinder object, somewhat like the lens of an old camera, but the flash was slower than a camera flash. Anyway, it scared us so much. I almost think that the cycle of motor engine attracted this object. We sat there scared to death for 2 1/2 hours afterwards wondering how to get into the house. Also have seen other objects, there are alot out here. Almost every night and especially down the county roads where it is darker is a good spot to look.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Ontario Sightings, Dates And Shapes Of Objects Witnessed

Posted:  July 31, 2005

I am also sending you "some" of the sightings of dates and shapes. I feel it is important to share with these with you.

Hi Brian, like you, I'm doing this to help other people cope with their experiences, that they are not alone on this. Most people are frightened about even, one sighting. Thus, I feel it my duty to help expose, that they do "not" need medical help or drink, and should not feel paranoid, but open about the subject. I have no problem in sharing these sightings with others, mainly because, they will be searching for answers of their experiences and know how alone they feel. The drawings sent to you are for you to digest, as these are some of the unbelievable sightings I have encountered (solid, transparent and pure light). Yes Brian, you may post the drawings and the article, as information "helps" confirm other people's sightings.

Banora Point, NSW Australia 3 Orange/Red Lights Rotating

Date:  n/a
Time:  Evening


Hey Brian, thanks for your response.

What my friend has told me is that he and his mother were driving home one night, when he saw out of the window, 3 Orange/Red lights rotating in the sky. His mother pulled the car over and they watched them for quite a while before they separated and, moved away in different directions. He explained that the lights moved in odd ways, moving in and out of clouds in the sky, before disappearing. His mother mentioned that these lights were far different from any airplane lights that she had seen, and both question what they were.

The strangest thing of all is that the sighting was very close to my home, around 1Km. Also, that evening, a waterspout emerged in the area in which I saw an orange orb heading east out to sea. The weather was strange that day.

My mother has also notified me that a few weeks back, her and my sister witnessed the same type of orb I saw. They say it was moving very slowly, then suddenly, flying very fast across the sky, and then disappearing. This was in the area where my friend and his mother saw the three orange lights in the sky.

And just recently, I was standing outside with my camera and binoculars, hoping to see the lights again, when I briefly saw an orange light flash across the sky. It was gone within one second.

So, strange things are happening in the sky very close to my home. I have included a map, which shows where the objects were seen. All of the un-identified objects have been Orange/Red balls of light, which look like flames. The objects that my family have seen are singular, however, my friend and I are the only other people that I know have witnessed more than
one.

This area is the location in which my other and I received our scarring. Whether it has any relevance to the sightings and strange occurrences, we do not know.

My step dad is the only one who refuses to believe. We don't know if he has ever seen a UFO, or has scarring like my mother and I. But he seems interested in the whole idea of spotting UFOs, so we will just have to wait and see.

If anyone you know is located in my area that has witnessed similar things that we have, feel free to give them my details. It would be a great step to find out what these things actually are.

Anyways, Thank you for your time. I will be on standby for any other occurrences, ready to gather photo and video evidence.

St.Lazare, Quebec Pink And Green Lights

Date:  July 8, 2005
Time:  11:30 pm

Me and a few friends were walking home at night, it was a clear sky, I don't even remember the moon being visible. To get home I have to walk around a sandpit. As we approached the sand pit my friend noticed a flash of light, and we all looked up. I started running towards it, it was right above the trees. I was looking up at the trail of light as it went away. It flew in the shape of a "J" and started to spiral down to the side. It was a metal ball and as it spiraled pink and green lights shot out of it. It made no noise at all and we watched it for two minutes until it went down into the trees. I think it was about the size of a Beetle (the car). It was the most amazing thing I've ever seen. It's exactly a week later and I couldn't stop thinking about it so I went back to the same place, same time. I didn't see anything, but I found out that other friends of mine had been walking in the same area four days after the 8th and saw something in the sky they weren't sure if it was circular like the one we had seen. But they saw a flash of light and then pink and green lights.


Thank you to the witness for the report.

Victoria, British Columbia Stationary Brilliant Light Above My Home

Date:  July 24, 2005
Time:  1:00 - 2:00 a.m.

Location of Sighting: Directly above the house, seen through skylight above my bed.
Number of witnesses: 1
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Round white light, like a brilliant star, half the size of a full moon.

Full Description of event/sighting: I felt unable to fall asleep. A restless intense energy was what I felt. I rolled onto my back and (looking through my skylight) directly above the house was a large stationary brilliant light. It stayed stationary for about 5 seconds, then shot quickly in a southern direction, becoming the size of a normal star. It then zagged easterly completely disappearing. All this took 10 seconds from first seeing it until it vanished.. The same day at 8:30 pm. a transformer blew up in front of my house. Six days later Saturday July 30 at 7 pm.  in the same vicinity, another huge explosion from another transformer blowing up occurred, apparently causing considerable damage and power outages around the city of Victoria.

Additional Information:

Hello Brian, There was no sound heard. My 3 bedroom windows were open. There appeared no colored lights at all, and no blinking of any kind. The sky was very clear of any clouds from my viewpoint. I don't live near an airport, but I am on the north end of Cedar Hill Golf Course. I had the sense that it was approx.100 feet in the air. No storms reported at the time of the first or second transformers blowing up. Weather here has been consistently clear throughout July.

On the 6 o'clock news Tuesday Aug. 2, it was noted that BC Hydro would be investigating the power outages. Immediately following that the next story began, 'Do you believe in UFOs?' Port Alberni had some video footage from Aug.1 around 4 pm., witnessed by a few people. You may have seen this news, it was repeated today at 6 pm. Channel.6 Global. The footage did not have any resemblance of what I saw. I'm 50 yrs. old and have not ever seen anything like this before.

Thank you to the witness for the interesting report.

London, Ontario Three White Lights In The Shape Of A Triangle

Date:  July 27, 2005
Time:  About 12.35 p.m.

Last Wed. July 27 my friend Scott and I had finished our work out  program at his house.

We live in a suburb of London Ontario called (name removed), I live at the very top of a hill called Look Out Court were I can see most of the city. Within a two minute walk from my house there are three huge communication towers at the top of our hill, and there are five or six with in 5 minute drives from here in the area.

It was about 12.35 pm when he was taking me home, and he pointed out something in the sky, it would have been less than a thousand feet of the ground traveling toward Aylmer, or North East. It had three whites lights in the shape of a triangle, one light on each axes, and an orangey light in the center. It was weird, we were looking at an angle so it would suggest at the side of the ship, however it appeared as if we were looking at in from bottom up.

It was moving slowly over the houses, we followed it as it was going toward the top of the hill and my street. As we pulled up to my court Scott was on his cell phone to his mother describing it, he tells me now that is cell phone was braking in and out.

We got out of the car in my court, there was no noise from this thing at all. When we got out of the car, the lights (craft) was between two towers but lower than there tops, just hovering. (Name removed) told his mother he was letting her go to snap a picture with his cell cam, at that point the thing simply vanished and (name removed) call to his mother was cut off. It did not crash and there was no sonic bang so I would imagine it was still up there, just with its lights off.

I called the police, whom said call the airport, when I did that they told me no pilots were known to be out this way but to call the RCMP at a number they gave me, when I did I got an officer in Toronto that didn't seem to know why I was calling him, but he recorded it anyway and said he would call authorities in London.

Now Almost a week later my friends tell me that they saw on the news that the police are telling people ( I assume cause more called in about it) that what they saw was some kind of blimp.

I did not see a blimp, and even if I did, it would have blinking lights, that wouldn't turn off, it would be higher, it would make some noise, and London Airport sure as hell would have known about it.

What did I see? Who made up this blimp sorry?....

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Calgary, Alberta Three Lighted Object Slithered Across The Sky

Date:  August 1, 2005
Time:  1:00 a.m.

Number of witnesses: 2
Number of objects: 1
Shape of objects: Oblong

Full Description of event/sighting: At approximately 1:00 a.m. on August 1, 2005 a 3-lighted object slithered across the Calgary skyline, from west to east (I live on the west side). As it approached the downtown city lights it vanished and simultaneously a meteor appeared, following the same trajectory as the object.

I have one witness with me who saw me pointing to this object, but he couldn't see it himself. He instead followed my eyes as I was following the object and he saw the subsequent meteor. I said to him as I watched this object "look at that, there are no lights, yes, there are three lights". I said it in this way as I was seeing it and trying to digest what it was. I said "no lights" first because there were no red or white blinking lights that you would see normally see on a plane. I knew there were no wings in other words. I don't understand how he could not have seen the object, it was large enough, close enough and there were no other objects visible in the cloudless, starry sky. He was absolutely convinced I was seeing and watching and following this object with my eyes, and the meteor happening at the same time I said to him "it's vanished" was quite a coincidence. No alcohol or other substances involved.

The object was about the size of a large airplane and was caterpillar or ameba-like with three "dome" type lights beneath it that did not radiate any sort of light downward. The lights took up at least 80% of the underside of the object. There were no other lights on the side or top or around it at all.

It made no sound like a regular airplane would. And it was too late for a normal airplane to fly over my house. It moved very "smoothly" across the night skyline. It appeared completely in synch with the sky, as if it was traveling on water, whereas a regular plane cuts across the air and makes audible sound. When I said caterpillar-like it was because of the fluidity of its movement - like it wasn't a completely solid structure, it could move and bend in a way a plane never would.

Thank you to the witness for the very interesting report.

Sandbanks, Prince Eward County Ontario

Date:  August 2, 2005
Time:  Between 1:00 to 1:30 am

Hi Brian, On August 2, 2005 at about 1:00-1:30 a.m. on a very clear night. At the location of the Sandbanks (Lake Ontario) Prince Eward County. (80 kms. south of Trenton,Ontario) I witnessed a very fast "shooting star" moving horizontally about one to 2000 feet max above the ground. It was bright white blue light, that left a 2-3 second trail of the same colour which faded out. It's speed was incredible, with a 3-4 second window of viewing about 3-5 miles of sky. I do know and have seen, even earlier that night, noticed about 4 or 5 falling stars. But this one was different Brian, it flew perfectly horizontal with a (2-3 sec) trail signature. The direction was East to West over Lake Ontario heading towards Toronto. So was this a natural event? or other? First timer on this one Brian, feedback would be appreciated.

Thank you to the witness for the report.

Kelseyville, California Two Object With Brightly Flashing Lights

Date:  August 2, 2005
Time:  After midnight

Number of witnesses: 6
Number of objects: 2

Full Description of event/sighting: Hello Brian, Last night me and my boyfriend were sitting on our deck watching the stars, we have been having nice meteor showers here for the past few nights. We had a good look around at the night sky for about a hour, it was still early in the night and since the meteor activity don't pick up until after midnight we came back inside at about 11:30. We had a snack and then came back out at almost 12:00 a.m . I sat down and pretty much right after sitting I noticed to the right of me, at the far right end of my yard above the tree tops a very bright star. I got up went to the stairs and watched this star looking object flash bright red, orange, green and white lights. My boyfriend was also observing this with me at that moment. I thought that maybe it could be a planet, but it was flashing so many lights, so brightly, and looked so low, but I wasn't sure. I went inside and got my dad to come out and look. At first he thought it might be a planet too, he said "it sure is flashing alot of colors" He then noticed as well as me and my boyfriend that it was moving around.

He made me go into his car and get out his field binoculars so we could see it closer. I gave them to him and once he got a good look at it he said "wow" it has three lights on it! I took the binoculars and saw three distinct white lights on it, the white lights were in the middle. On the outer sides of the object were red blinking lights. My dad thought that maybe it was some sort of government helicopter, but he said he didn't know for sure. We got my two younger brothers to come out and my mom to take a look at it, they were also baffled. The object went behind the tree's and was hard to make out so we got in my dads truck and drove down the road to where there was a large clearing. The object must have been traveling at great speed because it was much further away when we got to the lookout point. But through the binoculars we could still see it flashing all the colors.

We watched the one object for about 10 minutes and then suddenly my dad said "your not going believe this, but look over there" and to the north east of us was another object just like the other but closer. Just incase I didn't mention it before the first object was to the north west of us. The first one started out low to the horizon, I'm guessing about 20,000 feet up maybe less, I'm just not good at guessing altitudes :( it was low enough for me to look through binoculars and make a shape of it anyway. The other was about the same as well. They were just staying stationary and  moving around here and there, they slowly moved further and further away until they were little dots in the horizon. The first going in a northern direction and the other going north eastern direction.  I have drawn a picture of the objects to show you what they looked like , cause its hard to explain. The whole event lasted about a hour and a half.

The witness provided a diagram to illustrate what she and the other witnesses saw. The diagram can be found at:
