UFO Close Encounter Sparks Wave of New Information

New information emerged from a close encounter with a UFO.

Helsingør, eastern Denmark, April 1973.

In the spring of 1973, a man in the Helsingør area had a close encounter with an oblong flying object with several illuminated windows. He contacted the Danish UFO organization SUFOI who came to his home and conducted an interview. 

The man was still shocked and was happy to talk to the investigators because his family did not believe him. There were several visits to the man and they got to know him quite well. They got a lot of information about the incident from the man during these interviews. 

But they still got the feeling that there was something that the man was holding back and was not telling. Several years later, the man's wife called one of the UFO investigators they had met before and she said that she had noticed in her husband that there was something he wanted to tell. 

SUFOI again visited the family and over a cup of coffee the following story emerged.

It was 9:07 PM and the man was out walking in the area where he lived that evening. Then he suddenly saw out of the corner of his eye a bright object in the sky to the southwest and it was rapidly coming closer and closer to him. 

It was a red-hot flaming object and the man could hear a crackling/sizzling sound from the flames similar to that of slowly pouring water on red-hot iron. For a short while it almost seemed as if the object was going to hit him and the man was about to start running away. 

But then 50 meters (165 feet) away from him the object stopped and then made a sharp turn to the right and then stopped again 30 – 40 meters (98 – 131 feet) further away over a depression in the terrain where there was swampland. So far the story was relatively identical to what the investigators had heard before.

But during this meeting the man was more inclined to talk about certain details that he had previously kept to himself. Now he told the investigators that in the bow of the craft there was a round bulging window and inside this he had seen three beings (!) and behind them a white-orange light was blazing and some luminous rods that moved slightly. 

The people in the window were wearing black suits and he could only see them from the waist up. The man described their appearance as hideous. "They looked cruel. Their arms could not be seen, their necks were thin and their heads were somewhat angular. 

Their eyes were like large, shiny glasses, and where their ears should have been, there were long, upright growths." The witness said that these growths could be some kind of antennae. He did not see any detailed facial features.

After the man told the investigators about the people in the craft, they could notice that it was as if a weight lifted from his heart and he felt relieved. The witness said that he had not wanted to mention anything about these beings before, because he was afraid that the investigators would then dismiss the whole incident as pure fantasy. 

The man did not initially want this latest episode to be added to the previous testimony, because he had heard that leading people within SUFOI viewed UFO cases involving alien beings with skepticism and contempt. With the man's permission, the case was later updated.

The flaming and glowing elongated UFO with lit windows hovered above the marshland near the where the man stood and in the front window he spotted three black clad, grim looking beings.
