Black triangle UFO moves over house in Great Britain

Report from MUFON:

Date of event: April 19, 2010
Location of event: England, UK

"I woke up from a deep sleep for no obvious reason at 10.15 pm last night and felt compelled to open the bedroom blinds and look out. Here in the south of England the night sky was faintly lit by street lamps reflected from the mist of volcanic particles filling our atmosphere at present.

For perhaps three seconds I stared intently at the clearly defined shape of a triangular black craft which passed silently overhead and out of sight over the house. Its shape was of an elongated triangle, reminiscent of the Concorde.

It had lights at each of its three points - red to the front and two white. It was flying to the west at the relatively low height of a small private plane, and was the size of a large passenger aicraft, but silent.

The flying ban due to volcanic ash is still in operation throughout the UK, and we have not even had the regular Chinook helicopter patrols patrolling around nearby Aldermaston nuclear plant for the past few days, and none of the usually constant Heathrow and Gatwick air traffic. The craft's path would have brought it from the direction of flaring orbs in the sky which develop false navigation lights and which we have been observing for some months.

Our Aldermaston orbs bear a strong resemblance to those repeatedly filmed by Alison Kruse in Pennsylvania, USA, and posted by her on You Tube at http://www.youtube.com/user/MOREseeingUFOsPA"

When James Courtney and Michael Meehan, two crew members S.S. Watertown, were cleaning a cargo tank of the oil tanker as it sailed toward the Panama Canal from New York City in December of 1924, one freak accident happened and they engulfed in gas flames and perished. They men were buried at sea off the Mexican coast on December 4.

But this wasn’t the last they saw of the men. The next day, one of the crew members reported seeing the faces of the two men in the waves close to the ship. They remained there for several seconds before fading out. And for several days thereafter, phantom like faces was seen by the crew. There has never been any explanation for their sightings.

This photograph was taken in 1919, but wasn’t published until 1975. The photograph shows squadron which served World War I at the HMS Daedalus training facility. Upon further inspection, a face can clearly been seen behind the fourth men from the left.

Members of the squadron have reported it to be the face of Freddy Jackson, an air mechanic who had been accidentally killed by an airplane propeller two days earlier. The same day as this photograph was taken, Jackson’s burial had taken place. Some think he was unaware of his death and decided to show up on the group photo.

Report sent to paranormal.about

"I was at the Stanley on a ghost tour," says George. "I came back with four orb pictures (which I can send you if you wish), and upon further investigation I have this one. I didn't notice it until I was on the plane home and zoomed in on all my Stanley pictures. I was shocked at first and have been showing it to people the past few weeks and been getting similar reactions of amazement to people saying it looked like a Cabbage Patch doll. Just thought you might have some ideas.

At first I thought it was a dog, then after zooming closer, it certainly looks like an apparition of a little boy. If you look at the people on the ground they are so clear, when you look at the window it looks like a vision. You'll also notice there is no curtain or glass to distort the view; the window is open."

"I contacted the hotel to find out about the room," George says, "and this is what they said:"
OK, the room number is 1211. Last Friday, there was a single man checked in that room who was part of a business conference. That doesn't mean he DIDN'T have a child with him, but it is unlikely that he did. -- Stanley Hotel

Top 10 Ghost Images - #1

The photo above is probably one of the most famous photographs ever taken of what is said to be a ghost. It was taken in September of 1936 at Raynham Hall in Norfolk, England by two photographers, Captain Provand and Indre Shira, assigned by Country Life magazine. Shira recalled the event as following:

"Captain Provand took one photograph while I flashed the light. He was focusing for another exposure; I was standing by his side just behind the camera with the flashlight pistol in my hand, looking directly up the staircase. All at once I detected an ethereal veiled form coming slowly down the stairs. Rather excitedly, I called out sharply: 'Quick, quick, there's something.' I pressed the trigger of the flashlight pistol. After the flash and on closing the shutter, Captain Provand removed the focusing cloth from his head and turning to me said: 'What's all the excitement about?"

The ghost, called “The Brown Lady”, was first seen upon developing the picture and it was published in the December 16 of that year’s issue of Country Life.
