Naked-Eye Sightings of Mysterious Orbs (Part 9)

Below are some posts I have published about people reporting they saw mysterious orbs with the naked eye:

Below is a startling news report from the November 1, 1899 edition of the Washburn Times:

apparition news report

You can read the report on its original page using the link below:

In an article entitled "A Memoir Offers an Insider’s Perspective Into the Pentagon’s U.F.O. Hunt," the New York Times reports that Luis Elizondo, who "ran highly classified programs for both the White House and the National Security Council," says that he saw mysterious green orbs flying around in his house. We read this: 

"Elizondo also wrote in the memoir of personal encounters with U.A.P., describing green-glowing orbs about the size of a basketball that invaded his home on and off for over seven years. The objects were able to pass through walls, and behaved as if they were under intelligent control, he wrote.

The orbs were also witnessed by his wife, two daughters and their neighbors, he wrote."

We have four police witnesses of a spooky orb that moves from a road into the woods, and then changes color from yellow to red before disappearing. 

The account below is one of the most spectacular orb reports ever. We read of a man (Stuart Blue Harary, with a preferred name of Blue Harary)  who had an out-of-body experience in which he reports his soul visiting friends. Harary claims that two of his friends reported seeing a ball of light at the same time as these "soul visits" occurred.

I had discussed the same person and his out-of-body experiences in my post here. Scott Rogo's research work with Blue Harary (Stuart Blue Harary) is described in Chapter 8 of his book Mind Beyond the Body: The Mystery of ESP Projection, which can be read here

The account in the image above is imperfect from an evidence standpoint, as it lacks the names of the corroborating witnesses. If you ever witness what you think is the paranormal, try to get the names of any corroborating witnesses, and ideally try and publish their names. If the witnesses do not want to have their names published, you can state in your report that you have the name of a corroborating witness, and can supply it upon request to a serious researcher such as an author, journalist. scientist or long-time scholar of related topics. 

Below from 2013 are two reports of people seeing mysterious orbs in the sky:

 Below is a 2008 story appearing in the publication Psychic News (click on the image to read it more clearly):

On the page here, we read this:

"Fort Ontario has acquired a number of ghost stories. There is a nameless ghost in blue who wanders around the parade ground, and a luminous ball of light that is said to be seen near the guard posts at late night."

The story below appeared in an 1873 newspaper story  (click on the image to read it more clearly). We read of an apparition that sometimes takes a circular shape:

orb haunting

The story first appeared on the newspaper page shown below:


Below is a report from the Niagra, New York "Journal Register" of November 4, 1983.

"What is the explanation for the strange phenomenon which has been taking place over the steeple of a Protestant church in West Germany, in the town of Wanfried? Ever since early July, a mysterious ball of red light has been appearing nightly over the church. Thousands have seen it. Is it a hoax? An optical illusion? The result of mass hysteria? Or is it - as many who have seen it maintain - a supernatural occurrence?

Stray reports of visions are not that rare. But for an apparition to reappear regularly over a period of more than three months is extraordinary - even [if] there is some good explanation for it. So far, though, nobody has come up with an explanation. The possibility has been mentioned that the brilliant light of the apparition is 'St. Elmo's fire,' a flaming phenomenon sometimes seen in stormy weather at prominent points on a plane or ship or at the tops of church steeples. It a charge of electricity, which is reddish when positive (the ball of light over the German church has been described as red), and bluish when negative. But St, Elmo's fire is not known to appear in fair weather as is the case with the apparition in Germany. "

You can read the report below, on the top left corner of a page  (page 17) which also describes another case that may be even harder to explain: the Zeitoun apparition case.

At the link below, we read of two police officers who chased a "ball of light" UFO in the sky, reporting that the speed of the object seemed to match the speed of their vehicle:

A similar report (involving a "big ball of light") is found here:

https://nyshistoricnewspapers.org/?a=d&d=sacn19671221-01.1.12&srpos=32&e=-------en-20--21--txt-txIN-%22ball+of+light%22---------

Similarly, in the 2013 story here we read of someone seeing an orange ball of light in the sky for 30 minutes, and someone else reporting four red balls of light flying over his home, including a "very bright red ball."

The 1911 report below discusses a "ball of fire" lingering in the sky between 30 seconds and six minutes (according to different witness accounts):

The old newspaper account below can be read at the link here:

We read of a thousand gathering to see what look like luminous lights rising from a grave:

The report below appeared in a 1924 newspaper account you can read here:

https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn84026749/1924-08-05/ed-1/seq-2/

We read of "a blazing ball about the size of a cannon ball hanging low over the summit of South Mountain." Since we read that this puzzled scientists, we may presume that it could not be explained as the moon
