A Minnesota teen encounters humanoids clad in silver suits while outside playing basketball. On two later occasions, there was a loud noise and the house shook. The family then observed a UFO.
I received the following account:
"At the time of this incident, I was living in Rush City, Minnesota. The date was 9/7/1979. I was about 15 or so when I was outside playing basketball by myself. It was right before dusk. I had this odd feeling that I was being watched. It was strong it wouldn't go away. So I kept looking around. Then I saw these human-shaped things in silver suits. But I knew right away they weren't human because they could be there one second and then on the other corner of the house the next. Humans can't move like that. It was like they transferred themselves. I was scared, but it was weird, I was not scared of them. Normally I would be a chicken because I am a scaredy cat. But I wasn't scared of them. I was scared of what or who they were, not knowing. It's hard to explain. I went in the house and was a little freaked out at the unknown so I deadbolted the front door and locked it. It was still pretty light outside. Then I went upstairs and my family (mom, dad, brothers, and sisters) were watching TV. I said nothing because I felt stupid and like nobody would believe me, but I did go to the patio door also and locked it, and put the deadbolt on it. Then I went to take a shower.
As I was in the shower there came this loud noise and the house started to shake. I got really scared and hurried out of the shower, got dressed, and ran into the living room. My dad was the only one still there. I asked where is everyone and he said they were outside watching a UFO that had just come out of our pasture and gone into the sky. I went running outside and by then all I saw was the speck. They said that was what made the noise and that it came out of the woods and shot to the sky. I told my mom what happened to me, and the reason she believed me was because when they went to run outside, the door was deadbolted. She knew I was telling the truth. The weird thing is, we never talked about it, EVER, it's like it was forgotten. Two weeks later it came back when my mom and dad were home alone. The same noise, the house started to shake (we were on a cliff with the creek below) and all the electricity went out and a light was shown down on our big back porch which overlooked the creek. They thought it had to be the same thing.
Anyway, we never talked about it again. Until about 20 years later. My mom actually said something to someone and I was like, 'My god, mom. Do you remember that?' Why did we never talk about it, that was odd. It's hard to explain." H
