We Were Frozen in Time: Ten Truly Bizarre Close Encounters of the Second Kind

All UFO encounters are interesting, whether a sighting, a face-to-face encounter with humanoids or an onboard encounter. One category of cases that deserves more attention is known as a Close Encounter of the Second Kind. These are cases where UFOs affect the environment in some way. This episode presents ten truly bizarre close encounters of the second kind, cases which boggle the mind and show that we still have much to learn about the extraterrestrial presence on our planet.IT WAS WATCHING US. On November 23, 1963, two students sat on the porch of their home in a construction town along the Mattagami River in Ontario, Canada. Without warning, a humungous metallic craft appeared about 200 feet away. It hung there silently, and the two boys had the feeling they were being watched. After a few moments, the craft moved off. Two days later, another group of witnesses in the area said the UFO swooped down above them and burned their skin.VERY TERRIFYING. At 1am on July 30, 1968, a man from Claremont, New Hampshire observed a large glowing object fly at a very low altitude over his home. Two miles away and a half hour later, a family was woken up by apparently the same craft hovering in their backyard. The craft remained for two hours, scaring their dogs, and causing their children to start moaning in their sleep in a way they had never done before.PULLED OVER BY A UFO. One night in January 1969, a young man was driving outside of Lake Wales, Florida when, through his rear-view mirror, he saw flashing blue lights behind his car. Thinking he was being pulled over by the police for speeding, he was shocked when the interior of his car lit up with blue light. As he parked, he saw that it wasn’t the police at all, it was a massive craft, which clearly wanted him to observe them.IT WAS LOOKING FOR ME. On July 25, 1970, Etienne G. (age 16) was hiking in the countryside near his home in Les Bordes, France when he saw a shiny metallic object sitting on a hill among the ferns. He crept closer when suddenly it struck him with an orange beam of light, rendering him totally unable to move. He lost all track of time. An eerie silence reigned over the area. Some moments later, the craft took off.WE WERE MISSING FOR A DAY. One afternoon in September 1973, two siblings stepped off the school bus near their home in Mansfield, Ohio. Looking up, they saw a gigantic, silver, cigar-shaped craft hovering silently overhead. The normally busy street was oddly devoid of traffic and people. The craft stayed for 15 minutes, then flew away. By the time they returned home, they had totally forgotten the sighting but found they were missing 24 hours of time.SCARED STRAIGHT BY A UFO. On the afternoon of September 22, 1974, Mrs. W. was parked along a remote country road south of Launceston, Tasmania when her radio acted up and her car filled with light. Looking up, she saw a craft approaching. The UFO moved right in front of her, no more than 5 feet above the road. Afterwards, she was so shaken up that she became ill. But even stranger were the effects on both her car and on part of her body.WE WERE FROZEN IN TIME. One evening in June 1963, a mother and her two young children were talking a walk along a residential street in Phoenix, Arizona when, to their amazement, they came upon a UFO hovering right next to a person’s house. The normally busy street became utterly silent, and the woman felt immobilized and hypnotized. Managing to break her trance, she fled the area but found herself reacting emotionally in ways that surprised her.A TIMELY UFO ENCOUNTER. On March 27, 1979, a man was driving along a beach front road towards Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts when he saw a green cylindrical craft coming out of the water. His radio acted strangely. He watched the craft move off into the distance. Rushing to the police, he was missing about 15 minutes time. But even stranger is how the encounter affected his watch.COMPLETELY SPELLBOUND. On April 9, 1993, an elderly couple from Braunschweig Germany, was woken up by a UFO outside their window. They were unable to move as it hung there making a buzzing noise. Finally it moved off only to return shortly later. The event not only affected their animals, but he was physically affected, there was poltergeist-like activity in their home, and the Birch tree where the UFO hovered was badly burned.MY BODY WAS NO LONGER MINE. On the morning of February 2, 2002, a young woman opened the kitchen blinds of her boyfriend’s home in Arlington, Washington when she was confronted by a blazing white light. To her shock it entered her body, nearly causing her to levitate off the floor, and then shot out of her body. Her boyfriend saw the whole thing happen. Afterwards, she began to display amazing psychic abilities.Ten amazing cases, each showing us that UFOs can affect us and the environment in ways that we still don’t fully understand.Thank you for listening.
