Aliens: Tall White Aliens

Tall White Aliens are similar to Grey Aliens. They however are much taller than the grey aliens and believed that they could possibly use genetic manipulations to change their appearance. They are typically between 6ft to 7ft, but there are taller ones around 7'5". They are described as tall, and slender, with a skin tone close to pale chalk. They have large eyes that are blue in childhood and become pink as they age. They have long lanky limbs that allow them to propel faster than a human running. They are however said to be physically weak due to the numerous genetic manipulations to their genus. It's said that they prefer and thrive in arid dry atmospheres. Their aircrafts are faster than the speed of light.

Charles Hall, a nuclear physicist, ex-military American weather specialist, and author, had claimed that the U.S. military had been in contact with aliens for years and he even witnessed it. He stated in 1964 he was a weather observer at Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada that when he first met a Tall White Aliens and their interactions with the military group.

He had no evidence of them as there were no cameras allowed at the site. He claimed that the US Air Force made agreements with the US military probably since before the 1950's. They were involved in technology tranfers with the US military. 

He stated that when he first arrived that a colleague had wanted to lock them in the weather station and not go to the other end of the building where they encountered them. There was a group of five of them two men and three women. Looking at them is a shock as it seems as if your looking at a ghost, angel or dreaming.

October 4, 1990 Garden Grove, California Jane Doe

At about 7:30 a.m. on October 4, 1990, five children walking to their school in Garden Grove, California made a gruesome discovery. They saw a large, rolled-up carpet near the sidewalk on Lewis, south of Downie across from Riverdale Elementary School.

It's believed that Jane Doe may have been an immigrant from Mexico, South America, Central America, or the Pacific South West. Investigators tried posting announcements of Jane Doe in Spanish-speaking newspapers and other outlets, but there was no lead to her identity. There is hope that newspapers from other countries will write about her and help identify her. 

Information gathered makes law enforcement believe that she has connections to a man named Steve Glick.

Monsters: Hidebehind

The hidebehind as illustrated by Margaret Ramsay Tryon for "Fearsome Critters" by Henry Harrington Tryon

A Hidebehind is a nocturnal fearsome critter from American folklore. It is a large and powerful creature that preys on humans that wander the woods at night. The creature will follow the human and conceals itself behind an object or the observer if there is an attempt to look at it directly. The creature will eventually attack the human and drag them to its home where it would devour the human, especially their intestines. They hate alcohol and avoid those who smell/drank it. It was said that they were to blame for many disappearances of early loggers. 

Maybe the noises heard in the forest is not just forest noises, but the hidebehind hunting for dinner.

Photo by Stefano Pollio

There is an entity that goes by many names The Blink Man, Peeping Tom, the Flickergiest, or The Tunnel Man that haunts the Iichester Tunnel in Elliot City, Maryland. You can't simply catch a glimpse of this entity, but have to summon him in an hour-long process. It is only accomplished by staring down the tunnel for an entire hour between midnight and 1 a.m. without blinking. 

If accomplished the Blinking Man will constantly be in your vision and with every blink, he comes closer. It's said that he comes so close that you can feel his eyelashes touching you. He wants you to blink a final time. What comes is either madness or death.

Disappearance of Kevin Gerald Mahoney

On October 2, 1993, 25-year-old Kevin Mahoney was last seen in north Fargo, North Dakota. He left his friend's house after a party and was supposed to walk to his brother's apartment south of Moorhead, Minnesota. It's unknown if he made it or not due to his brother being out of town, but no one had seen him in the following days. His family would soon report him missing.

He was close with his family and would keep regular contact with them. No one had heard anything from him and it was uncharacteristic of him to leave without warning. Foul play is suspected in this case.

There was a rumor that he got into a fight with a man from Detroit Lakes Minnesota, but this was never substantiated. A month after his disappearance a woman claimed to have seen him at Rick's Bar in Fargo, but this was never confirmed. 

Kevin is a white male and was 25-years-old at the time. He's 5'9" and 155 to 165 lbs. He has long, straight brown hair and blue eyes.
