This event happened many years ago; however, I felt compelled to write about it as to this day, I still think about it. At the time, I was a teenager. I was working and got off shift from my parttime job and was going home. As I was walking up the crescent to my parents' home I heard sounds/noises that were not of this world! I looked to my left (there was a field there at the time), and saw really strange lights. I cannot explain it, but they were the type of lights that I have never experienced before. They were so bright and I am amazed that no one saw them (not that I am aware of). But what frightened me the most was the strange sound. I wish I could explain the sound, but after twenty-six years, I am still shaken by it. I ran home as fast as I could, rang the doorbell so that my mom or dad could open the door. I was way too shaken to use my house key. Anyway, my father answered and he could tell by my face that I was scared to death. I told my parents and my dad ran up to our 3rd floor and looked out the window. All he could see was those lights.

Like I said before, to this day I am still shaken by the events that occurred in July of 1978.

Has anyone else experienced something like this? Is anyone out there still shaken by an event that happened over 25 years ago?
