Memorable UFO Encounter
Time: Around 8 PM in the mid-1990s
Location: Seaside, Oregon
As a child in the 90s, I lived in a quaint coastal town in Oregon. One evening, my father and I decided to take our two dogs for a walk around 8 PM. We often crossed a baseball field at the end of our street. While we were in the field, I glanced up at the night sky and noticed a “star” that caught my attention—it looked distinctly different from the others. Curious, I asked my dad, “What’s that?” He shrugged it off, saying, “It’s just a star.”
Despite his dismissal, I couldn’t shake my unease as I continued to steal glances at the sky. Each time I looked, the mysterious “star” seemed to be getting closer. I tried to share my concerns with my dad, but he remained unconcerned and didn’t even look up. After about 30 seconds, I noticed that our dogs were acting strangely—tails tucked and ears back. My apprehension returned, and I looked up again.
To my shock, hovering just above the trees—maybe 200 to 400 feet high—was a massive UAP. It was an unmistakable flying saucer, gleaming metallic with multiple circular lights lining its edges. The object moved swiftly and silently, leaving me completely awestruck. My excitement turned to panic, and as I called out to my father, he finally turned to see it. His response was immediate: “Run!” He grabbed my hand, and we dashed back to our house. That’s all I recall of that night.
This experience profoundly impacted me, marking the beginning of my journey with unexplained phenomena. It remains the most unforgettable incident of my life, despite having encountered other strange occurrences since then.
Thank you for sharing your incredible experience! It’s fascinating how a moment like that can stick with you for a lifetime. The way you describe the UAP, along with the dogs’ behavior, adds a layer of intensity to the encounter. It’s interesting how children often pick up on things adults might overlook or dismiss. Have you had any similar experiences since then, or do you think this one shaped your interest in the mysterious? It’s always intriguing to hear how such sightings impact people’s perspectives on the unknown.
