Human skulls with horns were in the 1880's found in a gravemound in Sayre, Bradford County in Pennsylvania. Except from the two horny protuberances about 5cm over the eyebrows, the humans that the skeletons belonged to were anatomically normal, even if their height (214 cm) were much higher than the average. They were probably buried approximately 1200 BC. Some of the bones were sent to the American Investigating Museum, where they seem to have disappeared.

A man on a moped was killed by a cab in Bermuda in 1975, exactly a year after his brother had been killed - on the same moped, in the same street and by the same cab-driver, who drove the same passenger.

In July 1891, Carl Gros was killed by a shot at Maspeth, Long Island. The bullet had gone straight through the body, but had left no holes in his clothes.

When workers of Dowling Construction Company (construction company in Indianapolis) left a construction site at the workday's end in 1974, a breaking-ball of steel, weighing 5 tons, was hanging from a crane 60 meters over the ground. When they came back the next morning, the ball was disappeared. The Police were amazed and the ball was never found.

An enormous light object was seen in large parts of Rogaland and Agder, Norway, on the 12th of December 1992 between 22.00 and 23.00. The object was not identified, but sources say that it can have been a meteor or a burning satellite. The object was observed when coming from the north- west, heading against South-West. The object flew over large parts of southern Norway and then went against Skagerak, heading for Jylland, Denmark (Any Readers of THE CRYPT>in Denmark who have seen or read about the object, please write in and tell us about it.) The object held a height of 70 to 80 km and observations show that there were an explosion in the object south of Sandnes, Norway. The object then split into two parts. The Defence Commando of Southern-Norway (FKS) did not register the object on radar. The have registered the observation as an unidentified flying object (UFO).

I was outside, watching the Big Dipper with binoculars, when suddenly I saw a light star-like object flying north at large speed. At first I thought it was an meteor or something, but suddenly it changed direction and disappeared. It was a cloudless night when I made the observation and the object was seen many years ago, but I didn't write it down, so I can't say the exact time or year, but it was in the late 80's.
(Observation made by myself.)
A friend and I were watching the shooting stars a cloudless night and had made many observations of shooting stars, when we suddenly saw a very special shooting star. It was "turning" its light on and off. We decided to call the object a blinker. I don't know what it was (Afterwards, I have seen another blinker.)
(Observation made by myself around 1990.)
That's it for now, maybe I'll be back with some more Stories of the Unknown later. I encourage other readers to write in to THE CRYPT and tell the public about their own UFO - observations or other strange observations.
