Pennsylvanians Still Experiencing Mysterious Encounters During 2020
From Researcher: Stan Gordon
My phone line has continued to be active with calls from the public reporting UFO sightings and other unusual incidents during the 2020 year. Some UFO sightings, however, were explained as misidentifications of Starlink satellite processions passing over the area, and as the bright planet Venus in the evening sky. There were some sightings that were weather related. Some of the cases, however, were more interesting.
I received reports about such things as strange animal sounds in rural areas to mystery booms shaking homes. There were sightings of strange objects in the sky, unusual footprints and odd animal reactions. I talked to witnesses who reported seeing strange creatures such as possible Thunderbirds, and Black Panthers. I also received information concerning possible Bigfoot and other cryptid encounters.
Here is a synopsis of some of the interesting cases that have come to my attention.
January, 2020- A witness reported seeing what looked like two aircraft very close together in the sky, or possibly just one very large object toward the Latrobe area. Around the same time, there were reports of a loud boom in that area.
January, 2020- A motorist driving on Route 79 northbound near the Lone Pine exit in Washington County observed a gray triangular object below the clouds. There was a very bright blue-white single light on what seemed to be the front of the object. The object looked somewhat similar to a stealth bomber. The witness slowed down to watch the object, which suddenly seemed to vanish and was not seen again.
February, 2020- Dan Hageman, Director of the (BORU) Butler Organization For Research of the Unexplained, http://www.boru-ufo.com/ reported that he had been receiving a number of sightings concerning cylindrical and egg shaped objects being seen in the Butler area. One case involved a cylindrical object moving at a fast speed across the sky that came to a complete stop in a split second. A witness watched as a sphere emerged from the cylinder shape. Both objects then moved off in different directions across the sky. I have been receiving information concerning cigar, triangular, spherical, and rectangular objects being seen from various locations in Pennsylvania.
February 2020- Indiana County-A bright sphere of light surrounded by four smaller lights was observed in the sky. After a few minutes, the objects were gone.
March, 2020- In the last few years, I have been reporting on some unusual reports that have taken place in Westmoreland County as well as other locations in the state. These incidents concern encounters with a tall hairless very skinny humanoid creature that various witnesses swear they have seen. I have interviewed some credible people who observed this strange creature at very close range. Lon Strickler recently interviewed a camper who gives a detailed account of his strange experience with a similar being in Allegheny County. https://www.phantomsandmonsters.com/2020/05/8-9-ft-tall-whistling-disfigured.html
March, 2020- During March there were reports near Jeanette and Greensburg of an extremely large dark bird (Thunderbird) observed over the area. One man told me that he was driving only a few blocks away from downtown Greensburg one afternoon when suddenly, the shadow of a huge bird moved over the front of his vehicle. The driver said another motorist pulled up next to him and asked him if he had seen the bird moving overhead.
March, 2020- At a rural location in the Laurel Highlands during the afternoon, a man walked into a building where the door had been left open. Suddenly, a large dark animal ran past him only 10 feet away. The body of the animal was estimated to be about 3 to 3 ½ feet in length and was jet black in color. The witness was able to provide a detailed description of the animal and what took place. He was certain that what he saw was a black panther. When people talk of such creatures, they are generally referring to a jaguar or leopard, which are not common to this part of the world. There has been a long history of sightings of such out of place animals throughout this area of Pennsylvania and many other locations as well.
March, 2020- Cryptozoologist Ron Murphy and his children decided to take an afternoon walk. They were roaming through rural Derry Township when Ron and his daughter Willow, noticed a series of odd looking footprints on the wet ground. The tracks were estimated to be about 8-10 inches long and approximately 3-4 inches wide. The stride was less than 3 feet in length. One track showed some indication of toes, but another track showed what appeared to be clear impressions of 3 toes. Both right and left tracks were evident. This area is in the vicinity of the Chestnut Ridge where this is a long history of many strange encounters with UFOs, Bigfoot, and various cryptids.
April, 2020- An experienced weather observer and photographer was taking photos while a heavy thunderstorm was in the Cambria County area. When he was checking over his pictures, there was a very strange image of elongated white objects that appear over the Laurel Ridge. The man is familiar with camera and weather anomalies and had never seen anything like this before.
May, 2020-About sunset near Williamsport, a group of people, observed two objects in the northeast that appeared to rise up from the ground about 30 seconds apart from 2 different locations. The first object was very large in the sky with a bright orange glow and no sound. The light suddenly went out and they saw what looked like the body of an aircraft like a stealth bomber that was jet black in color. The first object moved off at a steady speed across the sky toward the west and was lost from sight. The second object soon did the same and was lost from sight in about a minute.
