Ipswich, Massachusetts
August 31, 1989
Animal Reaction Feature:
At 3 am, the witness was awakened by a knocking sound seemingly from
the attic. After 2 minutes, the sound became a heavier thudding
type of sound. When the witness woke her brother, the sounds
stopped and a spotlight lit the outside of the house. Their dog
was noted to be curious and fixed, standing “at full alert.” A
disc with a white light was reported to be no more than 500 feet in
altitude and between 100-500 feet away. No sound was reported
other than that described above.
Joan Woodward, Animal Reaction Specialist:
The witness is a female, 27, with a degree in English and Art and
employed as a photographer. She expressed an interest in psychic
events. No weather conditions or sky conditions were noted.
The area of the sighting was indicated to be woods. She was awakened by
the sounds described above and then thought she heard voices in the
house. Once she woke her older brother, the sounds stopped and
the spotlight shown on the house.
The only information about the “disc” is that it was first seen to the
south and last seen to the east. Its elevation was estimated as
90 degrees.
[Concerning the disc, it is not indicated if the witness went outside
or observed through a window. This sighting makes me think of a
helicopter, however, the field investigator did an on-site interview of
the witness.—jw]
No EM effects were reported. The physiological effect of
dizziness sometime after the event was reported.
