Insect-Like Aliens
by Z Kay

My mother and father-in-law were traveling by car on a deserted highway in Nebraska in the summer of 1949 when they had an encounter with a UFO. At first they thought nothing of seeing a bright light far off the highway. They thought it was the light of a pipeline pumping station or even a large farmhouse. Then the light began to move, and in seconds it began pacing their car. They could clearly see that it was an object made of metal with bright porthole type lights in the middle.

Then the car engine stopped running and the object landed on the road in front of them. Two insect-like creatures materialized in an instant. The headlights were still working and the little head of the Pontiac Indian on the hood was still lit. The creatures seemed to do a little dance and reached out to touch the amber glowing head. After a minute or two, the creatures vanished. In seconds the "saucer" or UFO or whatever it was flew away at astonishing speed.

We learned of this event only after my mother-in-law passed away in 1999. Her husband, the other witness, had died in 1984. This unusual event was given to us as a sort of codicil to an otherwise unremarkable last will and testament. All her life she never talked of UFO's or aliens or things like that. She was not an educated person and she waited until after her death for her family to read this strange story.
