For a number of days he was kept a prisoner by the Martians, or whoever they were, during which time he suffered frightful torture, but finally effected his escape....

"We Were Having Visitors From Out in Space" | UFO CHRONICLE – 1932

Mr. R.M. of St Louis writes that he's almost sure he saw an airship of some kind from another planet, three and a half years ago. "On the afternoon of December 8, 1932," he says, "I was

driving east when I saw something in the sky. I t was blue-white, like an electric arc, and traveling south. As I watched, the light went on and off three times. Then I saw what seemed to be the side of a huge airplane fuselage, but bigger than any airplane we know.”

"Still later I saw what looked like a huge red hot object, about four times the size of the full moon. This disappeared, and then I saw the front end of it go straight up. There seemed to be four windows across the bow of the object. It was going up and away from the earth, but was making a left turn. The last I saw the light was turning southeast.”

"My personal opinion is that we were having some visitors from out in space...."

"I think there are people on other planets who are smarter than we are, and they might find a way to visit earth. Coming from cold outer space into the air around the earth may have been too much of a strain on them. If they landed, it was probably in some part of southern Illinois.”

St. Louis Missouri Two Pulsing Red Lights And Jet Aircraft

By Anonymous Eyewitness

Full Description of event/sighting:
      I heard a very loud jet fly over around 7:30pm. I went outside approximately 5 minutes later and I saw 2 objects to the west moving south-southwest.

I could not tell a shape but they were just 2 pulsing red lights, just red and moving fast with one following another. I heard no noise at all.

Just as they were disappearing I heard jets flying to the west of me going in the same direction. I see many planes and helicopters were I live, but these were like nothing I have ever seen before.

Over St. Louis Red Lights Makes U Turn And Stops - Jet Fighters In Pursuit

Full Description of event/sighting:

By Anonymous Eyewitness

     I was walking my dog headed east when I noticed a single red light moving NE to SW. I noticed because of the speed it was traveling. Then it did a sharp u-turn then stopped. I then noticed another red light coming from the same direction just as the first began to move again toward the SW. Then another appeared and finally the fourth. I watched as they silently one after the other with perfect distance between them head SW.

As I watched them I could hear fighter jets coming from the north, three of them flew low and fast right over my location chasing the four lights.

MY UFO EXPERIENCE: Family Sees UFO Near St. Louis With Rotating Lights

Reader Submitted Report
[Unedited]
8-14-07

     My story happened about 9 years ago outside st. louis, MO,I am 22 now, Me and my mother and my sister were driving home on the Highway listening to music and just your casual drive in the car. I dont recall the exact time but it was clearly dark outside probaly between 6-9 oclock. When we came up to our exit(beau-antire RD exit if I remember it right I live in wisconsin now). As we were getting off on the exit ramp going uphill I noticed a strange light before I could say anything my mom Says DANNY DANNY LOOK and starts pointing to what I was seeing and telling my sister who was 8 at the time to look look, whatever this was could not have been more than 200-400 feet above our car by the time we reached the top of the exit ramp. As we drew closer more lights came on and they were rotating in a way unlike anything I have ever seen and I remember distinctly there was one light Bigger than the others that was very illuminating and hard to take your eyes off of. As bright as these lights were and it close as it was behind the lights was just darkness it was very hard to make out any kind of shape or see any design but I could tell that the darkness was moving almost like rotating its very hard to explain. As we were climbing the exit ramp this UFO was moving slowly towards the treeline of a conversation area right off this Exit no more than 30 feet from the top of the ramp.

After we all 3 sat there in complete awww it passed over the treeline out of view and we quickly tried to race to the opposite side of the exit ramp to see if we could see more of this thing. But despite the fact that there was nothing but trees for miles and the sky was clear this UFO vanishes as instantly as it appeared to us.

We arrived home shortly afterwards, maybe 5 minutes and I was completley estatic, I ran in telling my stepdad and as a 13 year old I even called the sheriffs office to report what I saw only to be laughed at and no one would listen so I just hung up on them.

I have been waiting to report this story to someone for awhile, it just feels better to tell people what I saw again. I will say in closing that I have never seen ANYTHING like it again and trust me it wasnt a flare, swamp gas, a bird , a plane or superman.

Thankyou for listening and sorry about the grammer in this.
