WALPOLE
September 1969
I had my bedroom shades down about 3/4 of the way, and the two windows in my room opened to meet the bottom of the shades. We lived on the second floor of a two family house that was set back off the street about 100 yards and on a hill. My bedroom was in the front of the house and the windows overlooked the front yard, driveway, and the street. There was also a street light on the other side of the street.
I was woken up around 2:30 in the morning because of a loud rustling in the trees. When I opened my eyes, I noticed blinking red lights outside my window. At first I thought it was a fire engine out on the street, but realized that I didn't hear the loud idling engine that a fire engine has. So, I got up out of bed to look out the window. When I got to the window, I wasn't able to see the street, the street light, or the houses across the street. I was met with a row of lights that were slowly blinking red then changing to white and red again, on the side of a gray object, that was level with the window. I saw what seemed to be the bottom edge of the object, and it appeard to be oval. The object just hovered there for a few minutes without making a sound. There was no movement in the trees; and the silence was deafening.
I backed away from the window, scared, and went back to my bed; never taking my eyes off the window. When I was back in bed, I noticed that the lights were also visible in my other bedroom window which was on the same wall and approx. five or six feet right of the first window. After a few minutes, the lights stopped, and I noticed the glow of the street light coming in the window again. There was no noise of any kind when the lights stopped.
I never went back to sleep that night, and as soon as it was light outside, I went out into the yard and street to look around. Nothing seemed disturbed or out of place. (Source NUFORC.org)
