Another 'Black Winged Humanoid' Observed Near Rockford, Illinois Posted: 23 Nov 2018 03:36 PM PST I recently received the following account: Hello, I recently learned of the Chicago humanoid sightings and then about the black winged humanoid sighting near Rockford, Illinois. This was shocking to me because I live in Winnebago County in a city (Loves Park) that borders Rockford and is 60 miles from Chicago and I have seen a similar black winged being. I was standing on the deck in my backyard late one summer evening, it was August of 2004, I was stargazing as I often do, when I was startled by the sudden furious barking of a neighbors dogs. As I turned and looked towards the direction of the barking it was at that moment I saw an all black 7ft in length man with huge bat-like wings flying across the park that borders along my backyard. It then descended to approximately 5 to 6 ft above ground. It pulled or folded its wings in slightly and then glided along the paved path that runs through the park. It continued gliding through an easement between two houses disappearing from my sight. Stunned by what I had just seen I quickly ran in through the backdoor and out the front, stepped out onto the front porch and that is when I heard a loud screeching sound. The sound was so loud and it was coming from the thick tree line across the street from the park on yet another easement. I quickly stepped back into the house, shut and locked the door and woke my sleeping husband. I asked him to come listen to what I was hearing, I told him what had happened and what I saw on our way towards the living room window as the tree line could be seen from there. The screeching continued sporadically for approximately 5 minutes. Then it went silent. The afternoon of the following day, after the incident as I was walking to the mailbox, the elderly neighbor who resided in the house that the tree lined easement borders the backyard yelled across the street asking me if I had a minute to take a look at something strange in his backyard. What the neighbor showed me was his chain link fence posts were bent down at a 45 degree angle. It was only and all the ones closest to the tree line. He was perplexed as to what could have possibly caused this to happen. I attempted to explain to him what it was I saw and heard the night before. Just as I went into detail that I saw something very large and strange flying, I got a raised eyebrow with the look of are you crazy, and was told that what I saw was a Heron and that no bird could have bent those posts like that. So I quickly dropped the subject, as I walked back home another neighbor 2 houses away yelled, 'hey, did you hear all that loud weird noise last night? It woke me up. I thought the rainforest or something moved in over night.' To which I replied with 'yes I heard and I have not a clue as to what it was.' I researched for a few months after my encounter and found out quite a bit about Mothman sightings. However nothing out there matched what I saw that night. So as time went by it had become all but a faded memory over the years until now. E.J. NOTE: This is the 3rd account that we have received from Winnebago County, Illinois near Rockford. The incidents occurred between 2004-2010...but also closely parallel the more recent sightings in the Chicago metro area and southern Wisconsin.

Haunted Car in Yellowstone / Alien at the Door Posted: 23 Nov 2018 04:01 PM PST “I was on a delivery around Yellowstone at about 3am around 10 years ago. I was alone on this long stretch of road with snow piled super high on each side when I noticed an automobile's headlights appear back behind me about a half mile back. The headlights disappeared and I thought they must have turned or something. No sooner did I take my eyes off the rear view mirror and the headlights were right on my bumper and were so bright it was almost blinding to the point of looking at a welder flash. I was in a panic because there was no way that car could have caught up to me that quick and why were those damn headlights so bright. I slowed to let the car pass but it stayed behind me no matter how slow I went. Eventually the car swerved into the left lane and slowly started to pass. I kid you not, there was NOBODY driving that car. I was petrified. It stayed beside me for at least a minute. It was an old car like a 50’s model Chevy or Ford with the big wings on the sides and huge chrome bumpers. I was only going around 20 miles an hour and because the moon was bright and there was snow I could clearly see inside the car. I could see the lights in the dashboard and there was nobody driving, NOBODY. I just couldn’t seem to grasp what was happening. All I could do was scream out Oh my God!! There’s nobody driving!! There’s nobody driving!! over and over. I was a mess. The car took off like a rocket and I mean LIKE A ROCKET and was gone. The car's tail lights just vanished up ahead. I was shaking and had to stop in the middle of the road for about 10 minutes to put myself back together. Simply horrifying is all I could say about that incident. Thanks." - Terry Rich ********** Alien at the Door John in Oregon called in to tell of his alien encounter: “I actually had something awaken me when I was five years old and it was standing in the doorway. It was pointing something at me and as soon as I thought about moving, I heard a click. It was only about half the size of the door and it was all black. Hopefully other people hear this and it sparks a memory with them but I was five years old... (Clyde Lewis, the host, asks about the clicking noise) Yeah, a clicking noise. As soon as I thought about doing something, or moving, getting up out of the bed, I had the hall light on. I was scared, you know, I was five years old. So I keep the hall light on. As soon as I thought about moving, it made a clicking noise and I knew I better just lay there and I fell back to sleep and I just laid there. The next morning, when I told the family, it didn't matter what I told them they wouldn't believe me. To this day I know something was there and it doesn't matter what anyone else thought. And it looked more robotic or machine-like. If there was no hall light on, I don't think I would have seen it. (Clyde asks again about if they were machine-like) Yeah, if anything, it was small and stealthy, just black and I knew not to move.” Source: Ground Zero Radio with Clyde Lewis – September 29, 2018 Beyond Creepy ********** DO YOU ENJOY 'PHANTOMS & MONSTERS' and 'ARCANE RADIO?'
