I told my teacher, she called the cops, and cops called the FBI.
Our whole school had to shut down so they could search the area for more pieces of the explosion.
It still haunts me to this day.

Its only then that I realise just how long Ive been driving.
I check a map, and there is nothing around that could explain the time its taken.
I decided to just carry on home, and assumed that I was mistaken.

After a nights (mornings?)
Believe me, that thought has stuck with me a lot!
There was no chance of a wrong turn that I could have taken.

Im convinced it was aliens.
Thankfully, if I was probed, they were gentle… TheDemonPanda

We actually thought it was an earthquake, but there arent earthquakes where I live.
A lady opened the door, said hello very nicely, gave us candy and closed the door.
We thought it was weird so we rang another doorbell and the same thing happened.
I still dont know what happened.

They were flying too fast to be the Chinese lanterns or anything like that.
After flying for about a mile and were over the lake by my house they split apart and disappeared.
Nobody believes what we saw, even with all the stories of other sightings online.

It flipped over about four or five times before coming to a stop sideways.

Me and my friends swear we saw bigfoot
Was out on some four wheelers with a couple buddies.
On some old logging trails.
Very rural western Kentucky.
Not so much as a house for maybe 30 miles.
It was clear as day and we all saw it and we froze.
We told friends and family and were just laughed at.
We still talk about it with each other.

Anyway I fell asleep and started sleepwalking.
To this day I dont know if it was sea lice or there is some voodoo shit going on.

I said sure and headed over.
I drive for about 15 minutes and arrived at my buddies house.
He let me in but all the other guys were all just sitting around watching a movie.
I asked what was up and they said they were done playing.
I asked why they didnt wait for me they insisted they had.
He called me 3 hours ago!
I have no clue what happened.

We got into a scrap with 2 Somalis.
15 minutes later, there was 20 of them.
My friend called his brothers, they came.
Cue a bunch of What are you gonna do about man?
Cue his brother taking out a grenade, pull the pin, and calmly stare at them.
They shut up and left.
His brother then proceeded to give us a gun.

It was just like a ball of light but with a pointed end.
I wish I had been braver back then but who know, maybe I did the smart thing?
When we finally finished setting up camp, we decided to go on a twilight hike in the hills.
A few hours later, just past sunset, we returned.
Exhausted from the day, we called it an early night and went to bed.
Hours later, we were suddenly awakened by bright lights shining through the thin material of our tent.
They were coming from the direction of the hills.
Just an eerie, bright light in the distance.
After about three minutes, the lights went off.
Confused, and a little afraid, we decided to take a stab at go back to sleep.
Ill never forgot the look of absolute fear in his eyes.
I screamed in fear, and scrambled away from the protrusion.
My brother and other friend turned towards me, saw the protrusion, and yelled as well.
Strangely, it stayed there while we screamed, and only slowly retracted after a good 10-15 seconds.
We spent the next ten minutes huddled together, yelling threats at whatever was out there.
Our shouts and screams were met by nothing but silence.
After our voices grew hoarse, my friends convinced me to fire up the tent flap and look outside.
Trembling with fear, I unzipped it and poked my head outside.
No vehicle, no tracks, no footsteps.
Absolutely no evidence of anything approaching our tent.
We spent the rest of the night arguing about whether we should hike back down or not.
In the end, none of us felt brave enough to make the trek back to camp.
We stayed awake until morning, packed up the tent, and walked back down the hill.
When my friends mom asked how our night was, we just grumbled and said something about the cold.
Either way, weve never talked about it to this day.

This company was so huge, it had streets, bike/pedestrian lanes and crosswalks indoors.
To make it even cooler there was an underground tunnel-system with some bunkers.
The company used said bunkers to store documents and materials.
The bunker we took the folders from was very old and needed maintenance.
It was wet, the air was suffocating and sometimes the lights made buzzing sounds.
Really creepy from the start.
We took a break and rested on some stacked folders.
Suddenly I felt a pressure in my head, saw black and was pushed to the floor.
My colleague screamed and we bolted upstairs.
After we caught our breath she told me she saw something behind me.
We never told anyone because these people were already looking down on us dumb holiday workers.'

I argued with myself that I had no reason to go outside and sit down.
Unless humans have developed ESP along with ufos, Im betting on aliens.
So its either humans with high tech, or aliens with regular tech.
There really isnt any other explanation.

When I was in fourth grade, my mother converted to extremist Christianity.
She was praying over dinner a few nights after Halloween, and she got completely carried away.
I woke up later that night from a nightmare, and the house was shaking.
I shared the room with my sister, and she was looking over at me with wide eyes.
We lived in Wisconsin.
Earthquakes dont happen in Wisconsin.
Needless to say, neither of us slept at all that night.

The big white fluffy kind.
It was about 2am and I heard all the dogs barking.
Not unusual there were wild coyote that tried to get to our chickens.
So I go outside with my shotgun.
Im soon joined by my granddaddy.
He asked me if I saw anything.
So we move to stand behind the dogs that are all looking at the same spot in the cornfield.
We shine our flashlights and we see nothing.
We give a command to the dogs.
I said Zeus whats going on bud.
My granddaddy yells to get back.
We shine our lights in and still nothing.
Im shining right down the aisle of stalks that are still moving.
No wind, the others are still.
My granddaddy says to fire a warning shot.
Then shoot straight back into the thicket of the corn.
Never saw anything, but those stalks were moving like something was tearing through them like a tornado.
The dogs stayed out there all night.
Went out the next morning and saw tracks Ive never seen in Alabama.
Thought the usual like deer, possum, coyote, anything.
But that didnt add up either.

The road I usually took home dipped into a little valley, taking a turn between two big hills.
In the Chicago suburbs.
I slammed on the brakes, and ::poof::.
Everyone thought I was completely insane, and/or trashed.
After awhile, I gave up.
Now no one believes that I saw the buffaloorthat there was ever a buffalo farm.
