Troy, OH
Driving north on Piqua - Troy rd. My daughter said "Mommy look at the stars!" The "stars" were close together at 9 and 3! Very bright! Slowly turned in position of 12 and 6! Then in a blink of an eye, disappeared up into the sky. With in minutes, several aircraft flew to the area. My neighbor watched in awe! Jetstreams all lead to area! I wonder what Wright Patt Airforce base will cover up this one. My daughter described it as a Frisbee with lights!

Greenbrier, AR
I observed a round silver object in a cloudless blue sky that simply vanished into thin air as I watched it. No clouds at all. It simply disappeared as I observed it. Saw this same thing about two or three weeks earlier just outside of Tulsa, Ok. Around the same time of day. That sighting lasted about 2 min.

Holland, TX
I was wondering that morning if it would rain and kept looking at the sky to see if I spotted rain clouds but the sky was clear and I managed to see an aircraft in the distance coming from an east direction. All of a sudden right above to my right and almost in front of the road at a height which I calculated visually to be between 15,000 feet or maybe less a combination of lights traveling in unison appeared. The lights appeared to be part of a structured or craft that had some sort of magnetic field that appeared to make half of it invisible to the eye or was blending with the sky and the rear part of it was visible and the lights were white bright, green, blue, celeste and other effects that I would say are not made by no known human technology. I would have to admit this was a shocking as well as a life changing event as I have been secretly a skeptic with this type of phenomenon. The lights from this craft were absolutely beautiful and something I have never seen in my life. It took me a moment to register what I had witnessed and I had dangerously lost focused of the road I was driving on and calculate I slowed my vehicle from 65 mph to about 30 to 35 mph in a 70 mph road. Afraid I would cause a traffic accident, I gradually brought the vehicle to an appropriate speed and looked to my right to see if the object or craft would reappear again, but it was gone, and I decided to continue my journey home from work. I work the overnight shift at a correctional institution as a correctional officer and I was glad as I thought about this incident that it did not happen during Halloween night or the hours of 12 midnight and 5 am with no sun about to appear it would have been a terrifying experience. Please see other report from Texas for the same time and date. PD

Diamondhead, MS
The night of Oct.31st., 2014, @ 11pm, my wife and I were in bed asleep, when we woke to a bright green light shining in our bedroom windows. Our bedroom faces our backyard and all woods. We both ran to the windows and saw an object the size of a basketball and brightest green light moving at tree top level horizontally from left to right. When I first saw the object, it dropped three round bright red and green balls from underneath and continued horizontally across the yard and then stopped and you could see looked like steam or vapor coming out of the top then the light when out. We went back to bed and 45min. later @11:45 p.m., we saw it again and it did the same thing tree top level left to right and then went out.

Spring Hill, TN
Bright large lighted circular object high in the sky, that made sharp, short length horizontal zig zag movements which were way to quick for any conventional aircraft, then it hovered for a moment and shot off straight up at amazing speed and dissapeared into the night sky.

While near BWI Airport some friends and saw what appeared to be a fire in the sky. slowly rising and swinging left and right. If i had to guess I'd say it was a hot air balloon? But its close proximity to BWI air traffic should rule that out? What looked like fire would glow bright dime and then vanish as the object just hovered in the night sky. Did any others see this?

Oceanside, CA
Last night my friend and I were on the beach in Oceanside, California. It was 7:18pm and there was no one else on the beach but us. All of a sudden in the sky appeared approximately seven objects that were red and orange in color. They were placed the same exact distance apart from one another, almost forming a triangular shape. At first it seemed to be standing still in the sky, it made no noise at all. It seemed to slowly drift or fade and then all of a sudden it was gone.

Bay Saint Louis, MS
I looked toward the west /southwest from my carport. I saw 5 red circular objects in a circular pattern about 40 degrees above the horizon. After a few seconds they came together into 1 large circular object. The large circle of red light continued to slowly descend toward the tree line. After about 20 seconds a thin red flare shot from the center of the circle toward the sky. The large object continued to slowly descend below the tree line. It appeared to be at least one mile away, although difficult to say exactly. From my perspective it was larger than the appearance of a full moon.

I saw 5 red circular objects in a circular pattern then they came together into one large red circular object. The object drifted slowly down toward the horizon from about 40 degrees elevation. After 15 seconds a thin meteor like red light was emitted from the object and disappeared in a few seconds toward the sky. The object continued to drift downward toward the horizon and slowly disappeared below the tree line. The entire episode was about a minute. I met a neighbor two days later that had seen this same large red circular object in the same southwest direction at the same time when she was walking around 6:30 pm and described the same size and motion that I saw.

Came from across the street hovered over the neighbors house the size of a baseball , pointing down as if to spy on the house so I freaked and it pointed at me and shut off the brightest light and glowing red then it hovered off as if it was embarrassed. I've never been so scared in my life. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

So my boyfriend and I walked outside to smoke, and we saw this strange object in the sky, moving in slow motions, back and forth, up and down... It was so bright, and it seemed as if it flashes red at some points.. So we continued to watch, and then we saw a helicopter approach it,a and it shined it's lights directly down onto it.. So my boyfriend and I were really intrigued now.. That helicopter left, and about 5 minutes later, we see this other one coming, and my boyfriend said " be ready to see something strange happen.." And it passed it at first, then turned right back around, and shined it's lights down straight on it, and circle it.. It circled it for about 10 minutes... And I was just, in shock.. The helicopter left, and a third one came along, and did the same thing.. So we assume that people have been calling and reporting this strange object. My boyfriend and I went inside for about, 20 minutes, and went back outside, it had vanished. I ! just want to see if others had witnessed this, or something similar. I want to know what this was, and what's going on.

My dogs woke me up and I went outside and there was a lot of bright triangular shapes I believe to be planets and maybe Antares, because when I took a picture and they came out round. HOWEVER, Orion, where his head would be, seems to have one or two red lights.

Marion-Morganton, NC
Earlier this evening I reported an encounter with a possible UFO over I-40 eastbound, between Marion and Morganton, NC. In my first report I thought I was missing an hour and a half because the dashboard clock said 10PM when I saw the bright light above me, but I had only left Old Fort about half an hour before, about 8PM. I have revised my opinion: I think the dashboard clock was affected. I think it mistakenly said 10PM, because I arrived in Rocky Mount between 12:30 AM and 1:00 AM as expected. Its a six hour drive from Asheville. I was right on time. It would have been utterly impossible to go from Morganton to Rocky Mount in only 2 and 1/2 hours. Therefore, the clock must have been affected by the object I saw. This means that I was NOT missing an hour and a half. Whew! Because my cell phone battery wasn't working either, I couldn't check the time on my cell phone. Don't wear a watch. Thank you for allowing me to alter my conclusion. I just didn't think of it before.

Was traveling on Route 2 east when a large bright light, white, orange, red whipped by in my line of vision. It was very low and I thought it was on fire and would hit the earth as it was moving left to right in a downward motion. Appeared to be a fireball. Lasted all of 3 seconds before it was completely out of sight. It was much lower than any airplane flying overhead and moved incredibly fast. It had no tail like a comet but it definitely appeared to be on fire.

At around 11:45pm, what I would describe as a fireball, came from over the trees (south) and was heading northeast. It appeared to be on fire but with no trail/tail. It would occasionally spark with the sparks fading almost immediately. After the fireball was out of view, another followed in the EXACT SAME PATH. 8 of these fireballs traveled in the same direction over a period of about 20 minutes. There were about 2 minutes between each one. They were completely silent and were about 1500 feet off the ground traveling at about 100-150mph. My roommate and 4 of my neighbors witnessed the same thing. We have multiple videos of this.
