Full Description & Details

This happened several times. I awoke in the night and was sitting up in bed. My husband was lying beside me asleep. Our bedroom was strangely lit up red but it was as if it was an illumination. It concerned me and I even asked my doctor what could possibly be wrong...could it be my vision, my brain...he said no. I was puzzled. Had no answers...until in the 1970's when my sons saw a UFO up close and it shown a lazer red light into the roof of a house down the street, which I wrote to you about in another e-mail when I signed up at this website. That's the only possible explaination I can come up with. Also, I believe my sons saw UFO's during the type I had these experiences with my bedroom illuminating a red light. It was just present...it seemed to be lit up from within the room...very strange. I don't know if anything happened to me before I realized I was sitting up in bed or not. I have no recollection of anything but that. There was no noise.

Can sighting be explained as any conventional man-made or natural object?

no

Witness Background

Worked in clerical and retail

Views on UFOs, before and after sighting

Didn't think about it at that time...believed in them in the 1970's when I saw bright balls of light streaking to the east, then north out of sight

Other Comments

Once you see them....you know they're real...even though people have thought I'm silly....it didn't change my mind or stop me from telling about my experiences.
