Albert Rosales

1947 Humanoid Reports. The beginning of the modern era, 1947 brought us "Roswell" and other interesting happenings. But humanoids had been seen before and crashes mentioned also in previous years. Following is a list of known humanoid encounters for 1947.

1954 Humanoid Reports

Albert Rosales

1954 Humanoid Reports. Focus in France. The unprecedented and until possibly 1973 unduplicated wave of humanoid reports took place throughout France and some parts of Italy. Other reports came in from England, US, Germany, Canada & other European countries but at a much lesser extent. Towards the end of the year the focus seemed to shift to Venezuela & Brazil. Whatever the case it was indeed a memorable year. Following is a list of known Humanoid reports for the year 1954.

1972 Hunanoid Reports

Albert Rosales

1972 Humanoid Reports. It was somewhat "the calm before the storm"; it was the last of the "slow" years of the decade of the 70's. It was the year that was to usher in the "high strangeness period." Following is a list of summaries of known humanoid encounters for 1972.

1977 Humanoid Reports

Albert Rosales

1977 Humanoid Reports. The year of "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" proved to be a busy and bizarre year, somewhat slower that the landmark year of 1976 and sort of a preview to the upcoming madness of 1978. It was indeed a high-strangeness era and 1977 was in the midst of it.

1978 Humanoid Reports

Albert Rosales

1978 Humanoid Reports, the year the bottom dropped out. As far as range and variety of incidents 1978 led the 70's decade. All types of humanoids were reported worldwide and in all types of situations. Besides your standard abductions, there were numerous types of entities reported. Humanoid waves were reported from Italy, France, England, Malaysia, Spain, etc. The first reports coming from behind what it used to be the Iron curtain were beginning to emerge. It was an unprecedented year; it took 11 years to almost equal the quality and amount of reports recorded for 1978.

1980 Humanoid Reports

Albert Rosales

After the incredible decade of the 70's was over, 1980 arrived bringing in unforgettable and incredible cases that will remain as classics in UFO History. Many were still the high-strangeness category that flourished in the mid 70's.

Human-like ufonauts reported in many countries

Scott Corrales, MUFON UFO Journal, Jan 2002

Some early UFO cases involving occupants, such as those in the ’50s and ’60s, involved more often than not creatures that resembled human beings in most respects. In the Grey-and-Reptoid-haunted 1980’s, 1990’s, and today, it is almost heretical to suggest that any other possible form of occupant can emerge from a UFO. But human ufonauts remain an intriguing part of the picture, and their very existence has suggested very disturbing possibilities to certain investigators.

Humanoid Contact Database 1979

Albert Rosales

79 Humanoid reports. The end of the "High Strangeness Decade" went out with a bang. A decline was noted from the almost record breaking year of 1978, but humanoid reports were still wide spread and many bizarre in nature.

Humanoid Encounters In Malaysia

Ahmad Jamaludin, MUFON UFO Journal, No. 141, November 1979 (USA)

While other countries have been experiencing close encounters with humanoids of diversified forms, I would like to draw attention to the reports in Malaysia where humanoid encounters have been confined to only one type – tiny entities measuring from 3 inches to 6 inches in height.  R

The new millennium was approaching; the so-called "Chupacabra" epidemic was ebbing. 1997 ushered in a sort of normalcy. High strangeness reports still trickled in, but nothing compared to the madness of 1995 and 1996. 1997 ushered in 1998, which was even calmer and kind of boring.

The Humanoid Contact Database : Humanoid Reports - 1998

Albert Rosales

With only 50 something odd reports on record (known) 1998 was a throwback years resembling those early sixties and late fifties years. They were a few high strangeness cases, but scattered and not to well documented. Some Puerto Rican and Italian reports were impressive and highlighted the year. Following is a list of the known reports with encounters with otherworldly entities for 1998.

Albert Rosales

After the incredible decade of the 70's was over, 1980 arrived bringing in unforgettable and incredible cases that will remain as classics in UFO History. Many were still the high-strangeness category that flourished in the mid 70's. Many were CE2 cases as weird as any C3 or C4 of that year

The Humanoid Contact Database: Humanoid Reports - 2002

Albert Rosales

It appears to be a slow start for this year with only one recorded case, again from Chile. We will see what develops later on the year. 2001 was pretty busy but it was a decline from 2000. Maybe we will see another down trend again, later to pick up again in the near future. This seems to be the ever-ongoing trend of the phenomena. Will it always stay the same? Time will tell. Following is a list of known 2002 humanoid cases.

The Humanoid Contact Database: Humanoid Reports - 2003

Albert Rosales

With a slow ending to the year 2002 as far as humanoid reports were concerned, 2003 appears to have started off with a slow start, but things promise to pick up later in the year.

Ufology - Pilots and Passengers of UFOs (Chapter 8)

James McCampbell, Ufology

The observation of strange, human-like creatures in and about UFOs is an integral part of the entire phenomenon and this aspect can hardly be ignored simply because it is a disquieting notion. From the classic book by James McCampbell.

The Humanoid Contact Database (Compiled by Albert Rosales)

Compiled by Albert Rosales

Having been involved in UFO research one way or another since the early 70’s, my fascination has always been with the UFO “occupant” encounters. I am currently engaged in attempting to catalog most reported encounters with humanoids, entities, beings, etc. So far I have over 4000 cases in my files, many known, many not so well known. I obviously do not believe every single story, but I believe all stories must be told. Many are first hand reports, others are just anecdotes, but all are included.
