An apparent landing of a UFO in the summer of 1966 at the Presque Isle Park in Erie, Pennsylvania is one still spoken of and researched today. The incident would unfold in front of multiple witnesses. And would have several secondary corroborating witnesses further to that. Furthermore, at least two of those present would encounter much more than just the landing of a strange alien craft. A strange humanoid whose description would match that of a “Bigfoot-type creature” would approach these witnesses.

I have had six encounters from 1966-2018. In “66” my brother an I spotted a ufo in Tinley Pk. Il., My later was a actual face to face with a being. If Mr. Lowth is ever interested in hearing about it, he has my permission to contact me. I usually wont discuss it but there are exceptions.
If you wish to drop me an e-mail toward the end of the month (just so I don’t miss it) then I would be happy to hear more about your encounters. Perhaps we could put something together for an article on here. I have another person who I will be getting back to in the next few weeks to do something similar. We are always interested in hearing of these kinds of experiences.
