North Carolina UFO Reports

We spotted multiple UAPs or something on November 17th 2024. Around 7:45pm. In the video I was able to get a decent shot. There were no stars out that night and very cloudy. It was by the street lamp moon to the left of it in the sky nothing but thick woods behind it. There was many UAPs flying around by the dozens. You can see them with your eyes way better then my camera could pick of them up not all lit up. Some had red and green flashing very fant. Once I started filming it appears to start coming towards me. But they stayed up pretty high. Til I got closer at to it pulled out my camera. It whipped threw the air when I came closer to it filming it could hear it. It almost looks like a flying burrito or a orb when it's still, but moves like a jellyfish. It's a bright, white id say it appears to rather small. They zip through the air very fast unpredictable movements sometimes and then slow glide others and some sit .I heard something in one videos I'm unsure where or what it came from. On November 18th 2024 at 6:06pm a few orbs had returned. I hope this report gets to you soon. View Report

Walking out of the movie theater at Southpoint Mall in Durham after seeing the 5 O'clock showing of Smile 2, My brother Husband and I were walking to our car parked in the 3rd row behind the Cheescake factory. I was looking east at a low flying airplane when I noticed a faint gray transparent thing a few degrees under the plane. At first I thought it was a cloud, but then I realized there was a small orange glow in the left corner of this cloud moving North and the cloud was following it like a trail but not a streak, think cone spray on a water hose. I told my husband and brother to look at this weird thing in the sky. They both asked what the plane? I exclaimed NO. My husband asked "the helicopter?" (There was also a helicopter but it was more south by southeast) And stuck his hand out to point. I grabbed his hand and used it to point at what I was seeing. When he noticed it my brother also noticed it. I could not tell how far away it was (the plane and helicopter were alot closer). My husband ran and grabbed his camera to try and take a photo. We did manage to get one but lens flare due to a street light. We watched it as it continued north by northeast looking as if it was descending at maybe a 5° angle, it wasn't moving very fast but we watched it until it was behind the nearby treeline. The object never once blinked but it was flickering like a candle or a star. The trail it was leaving very large compared to the object. The conical trail this object was leaving behind was incredibly wide and came to a point at the object. The largest part of the trail was wide enough to stack 13 or so of the orange deltas. The trail does not appear in the image that were able to edit the lens flare out of and the object looked to be delta/chevron shaped with a rounded tip. Mind you we zoomed in to edit the flare out and its blurry but its there. The angle the delta object was facing while crossing the sky was weird considering the 5° descent. The tip of the delta was angled more at a 45°. It kept its steady pace and flew out of sight behind some trees. The mall was busy but it seemed like we were the only people who saw it in our immediate area. I'm sure someone else saw it as well. I don't live in the city so I don't know how often people look up but someone else had to have noticed it. View Report

Quick flash of light odd shape on driveway picked up by outside camera. About an hour later another quick flash of light this time the shape was more organized. I stopped the video to take a picture of each and still gave the camera footage. My dog was acting very frightened, something she never does and I’m wondering if these instances were really something to be concerned about or was she freaked out by something else. View Report

Approximately 10:00pm. Over dark sky, over the ocean, East of Topsail Island, a red, bright light flew extremely fast from the south to the northern sky, then stopped abruptly and hovered in the same spot for maybe 10 minutes. While hovering, there were red and green blinking, vertical lights. My first thought was a drone except this was extremely high in the sky, way too high to be a drone. It flew (slower), going north/up the coastline towards Surf City, then my grandson said it flew off suddenly to the left/over the land and we didn’t see anything again. View Report

Saw a silver sliver of light ( during day time) moving back and forth before shooting straight up after which I started videoing. In the video I saw object or objects moving across the screen at various speeds. I sent to MUFON but they said it was artifacts… very lazy analysis imo. I’d like to send for another analysis but I don’t see where I can upload the video. View Report

It looked like a big white long board surf board and it was zipping from cloud to cloud over and near the Elizabeth city coast guard base and they sent planes, helicopters and jets to fly after it and try to catch it? It also caused a 7 car pile up on pear tree road because every one driving was looking up! This was about 3pmish View Report

I was coming home late around 8:30-9:30pm not paying any special attention to anything besides the road. There is a wooded area located about a half mile from my house, I live in the Piedmont region of North Carolina. I was passing by and I got hit with a spotlight that was super bright and it was blue. I thought maybe I was getting pulled over or someone was trying to wreck vehicles coming around the corner. It had to be super strong because you could see the definition from the intensity. But yeah anyways I stopped and turned around down the road and went back through to see what was going on, well nothing happened so I continued and turned back to go home. I watched another car pass through and I didn't see anything unusual. Right as I pass the same exact area I get hit again so I stop and see that it's coming from the top of the hill THROUGH the trees and brush. I kept watching for maybe 5 seconds or less, the source I seen literally a blue strobing ball. I thought why the hell would the police blind me in the curve like that, I was upset. Didn't last too long because this (spinning blue strobe ball, looked like it had a pattern where it was bright blue then had sections like a beach ball) disappeared into the trees. I know it sounds like some prank from a few kids or the neighbors having a party but I searched for anything and everything on the internet that could resemble or recreate those moments. I went and spoke to the neighbors who live literally a stone's throw away from the area this happened and they said they don't know anything about it. Didn't see any police around that time and I don't believe they have super bright blue spotlights anyways. Who knows these days. I just don't know why I was the only one hit (twice) with a military grade blue spotlights from a spinning blue beach ball ghost. Lol View Report

Since February of 2024 I have noticed unusual lights in the night sky. It started with lights appearing and disappearing, strange "explosions" of light or energy near the lights. I can see them any night I look. Almost 100% of the time. Usually it's a red/green/yellow/blue/white "orb" that is pulsating and changing shape slightly and color changing almost nonstop. I almost feel like they know I'm watching. They come towards my house, fly directly over it. Usually after I watch a while. I've had friends see them from miles away the same time as me so I knew it's not my imagination. I have hours of videos. I haven't had one person skeptic or believer say it's a plane or a balloon. They are definitely unique. View Report

High in the sky looking south it was kind of a bowl of spaghetti brighter than Venus, and 12 stars came out of it, and went a ways and disappeared. It appeared to be the end of a wormhole with 12 bright stars coming out, and as soon as they were done, it all blinked out, and they were all brighter than Venus, which was in the sky.!! I was walking the dog, and she sat next to me leaning against my leg! View Report

Small shiny orb traveling southwest to north east at a high rate of speed in bright, sunny weather. A few seconds later, a faint cigar shaped anomaly passed by going in the opposite direction. It then disappeared into the clouds. View Report

Outside walking my dog while smoking a cigarette at night and all of a sudden he started acting like he was scared and was running back towards the house with his tail tucked and I looked up and a bright light was just hovering above us then disappeared. View Report

Two white orb’s floating above my home. I took 3 live photographs with 3 second video with each photo. The photographs clearly shows extraterrestrials floating around the orb’s. I photographed this encounter 12 days after the last encounter, which I reported to you concerning the August 5, 2023 encounter. My name is James Stilwell and this is my 39th encounter in the last 3 years. Each encounter was photographed with extraterrestrials in the majority of the photographs. I also have reported to the Rockingham county, NC authorities all encounters and have shown the photographs to them. They told me that they had no jurisdiction over this and then suggested that I could sign a NDA. What a shame, that their vehicles have printed on them, to serve and protect, and in God we trust. Please also read the article with the Grey area news titled ufo observer reports sightings with photographs to Rockingham county authorities. Please include this report as another encounter that I’m requesting an investigation by someone who has the experience somewhat comparable to myself if that’s possible. In a world with such dishonest people, I now understand that my intellectual property will never have value, but I say unequivocally that in an honest world that it should be worth billions. I have approximately photographed 500 Extraterrestrials with dozens of their crafts, I feel blessed and cursed at the same time. Thanks for your interest in peoples reports. Please prey for the dishonest people in our government, our lives and safety are at stake and our government lies with every breath to conceal their knowledge of the truth about these entities and their technology. I’m a former US Navy veteran, NAS Fallon Nevada. Area 51 is a beautiful place. View Report

Two orbs floating about 100 feet above my home. I photographed them at 9:11 pm. I took 4 live photographs which clearly shows numerous extraterrestrials in the photos. Also was witnessed at Farris memorial park 4 days later by 4 police officers and 2 citizens. This information is on the NUFORC report index for NC. This encounter photographed occurred in Mayodan nc. This is my 38th encounter since 2020 and I photographed each encounter with extraterrestrials in the majority of the photographs. Please also read the article with the Grey area news titled ufo observer reports sightings with photographs to Rockingham county authorities. I wrote that article to share the truth with everyone. These reports will never cause our government to tell you the truth, but you just read the truth from myself. US Navy vet James Stilwell, I am not a coward like most people, people need to wake up and educate themselves instead of saying they don’t exist, just read the Bible and then you have the truth about this over and over again.

Got home last night at 9:30, when i got out of the car and was waiting for my husband, I looked up in the sky because its been extremely clear the last few days and we saw what at first looked like a star moving around the sky, but it was fast and moving in different directions, making 90 degree turns, stopping, going, moving back and forth, fading out and then popping up again...we watched this for about 10 minutes (until our necks began to hurt). It was way too high to be a plane, couldnt have been a satellite moving like that...nothing i know of can maneuver like that....and no it wasn't a drone, it would've had to been a huge drone if it was visible from that distance, it appeared to be above the stars...idk View Report

Second time ive seen this. Driving south on hwy 17 just north of wilmington nc and far away in the SE sky i see a "contrail burst" all of a sudden a sharp change in the direction and i think im going to watch a crash, sudden direction change again OVER the contrail. Turned on a dime! (the people inside would be pudding) Then acceleration like nothing ive seen before away from its contrail and gone in a blink. I continue driving south watching the sky and a bright possibly silver sphere is there and gone. Same sighting 6 mos ago or so but no sphere. I pulled off the road 6 mos ago to watch it because i seriously couldnt believe what i was seeing and thought something was crashing. I have a still shot from the first event which im trying to locate. Whatever happened was well south of wilmington possibly over brunswick county, pretty high up. sorry its not more technical. "Damnit Jim, Im a gardener , not a rocket scientist" hope this is useful. 2) amber orb 2016 wilmington nc- following an aircraft, blinked out. View Report

What myself and another family member witnessed to be an F18, l possible next gen fighter, I would 100 percent define it as identified armed military fighter jet twin jet engine with two blue wing lights and this guys deck might have been 20 feet above heavily new peaceful quiet neighborhood in wake Forest North Carolina. First fly by was around 05:00 and a second fly by around 9 pm. Because sky was so clear and no light pollution I got a clear perfect glimps of this and immediate light ascend after passing northeast property lines of subdivision. The vibrations and volume of these experiences shook the foundation of a newly built 10 unit stretch of town homes. This made me Hope one thing … I hope it is us ?? land of the free home of the brave. View Report

My name is Dana Morton. I live in China Grove NC . On Monday night at around 8pm I saw 2 large bright lights side by side looking to be tree top level very bright I looked at them for about 15 minutes they were very clear toward the western sky as I WATCHED A thin fog started to cover both lights when at the same time they both went completely dark and were no longer visible and there was no longer any fog. I thought could it have been two satellites until they both disappeared. I made this observation because of the fact I have never seen anything like that. I consider this event in my mind something unidentifiable. I am 68 years old and consider this event seriously. View Report

Both of the crafts were completely still, hovering in the sky, no movement what so ever. No sound either. And I have a video I will be sending with this information. Weird thing is that the UFOs we witnessed to our eyes the crafts both had 3 or 4 different colored lights that were either blinking and or blinking while rotating around or at the center of the these crafts. However as u can see on the video they appear to be only having white lights on the crafts or they themselves are emitting, or glowing, white light only. The colored lights both my friend and myself witnessed on these crafts that were appearing on them the entire time we were watching them were green, blue, red and possibly white or yellow but so dim from my angle I couldn't make out te color of the 4th lighter it was just cause the lights were blinking all around the craft so from my point of view I could have just been seeing the nextklspace in the light sequence on the ship but only a partial view of that next sequence. Also, strangely enough, I remember video taping a bit more than 1 minute and 33 seconds of video. We watched these hovering perfectly still for about 15 minutes or so. I believe the first 5 minutes we were outside I didn't have my phone. Then I ran inside grabbed my phone and started recording and did so for at least 5 minutes or more. But some reason the video shows otherwise. I'm not an exaggerating type of person and I've always been good with judging time frames and distances also. I'm a realist and have always had an investigative type mind set and personality. So giving a statement while exaggerating is not in my style. So if u have any questions please call me or email me.

2 lights in the sky that are too close to be stars lined up on top of each other 1 very low. The lower one disappeared now is just higher one. It's still in the sky now at 8:07pm Feb. 21 2023 greensboro/ Kernersville. View Report

Took a picture of a ufo near a cloud around 3:30 pm unknowingly. Viewed photo later in the evening and saw a circular object with 2 extended landing legs. Object was estimated to be 25000 feet above ground. Took another photo and when I viewed other photos, 2 birds were superimposed in the sky. It was if someone had reviewed my first photo of the ufo and covered up the object in the 2nd photos. View Report

My neighbor and I witnessed an object silver in color and shaped like a cylinder. It made no noise and left no jet trails. It moved from the east and traveled out of sight to the west. It was traveling at an extremely high rate of speed. A local hospital helicopter was also in the same area as this object but it was flying higher than normal. The UAP was very large. View Report

As the sun was setting and the stars just start to show I saw (as I concluded at the time was a bright star rising with the evening) proceeded to continue to rise higher in the sky then about a inch and a quarter from the top of the pines it disappeared in the blink of an eye. The object seemed like a bright shimmering star. View Report

Saw a bright light moving erratically. I am a huge fan of aircraft but I have never seen anything light this. It would reverse directions and make right angle turns. Saw a few red things appear to be coming from the craft. Then it looked like it was spinning, turn into a blue sphere, appear to explode and then reform. View Report

I was driving on highway 29 in China Grove when I looked up and saw what I thought was a shooting star. It was bright as the North Star and about the same size. The light stopped its downward trajectory and then shot straight off disappearing in to the night sky, leaving a silver trail behind it. Absolutely crazy!! It was like it shot off into hyperspace!!

It was my mothers birthday. I can’t remember if it was 2015 or 16 but I was around 12-13 years old. It was late. We went outside to use my mothers telescope that she just got. They are setting it up. Im standing on my porch waiting. I get an alert on my phone (iphone 4?) like a system/emergency alert that reads “Strange metal detected”. I believe my mother also got one on her old google phone. Weird right. I look up in the sky, and I see why I got the alert. There is a flying object, round, moving insanely fast in the distance up in the sky. Behind it, it very clearly a jet chasing it. Now I can’t remember if it was two ufos and one jet or one ufo and two jets. But it is something I will never forget witnessing. View Report

Sometime around maybe September 2014 me and my boss were staying in a rental house in the outskirts of Greensboro NC while we were out of town working. After work one evening me and my boss were sitting in the back yard talking when I noticed out of the corner of my eye these red spheres flying. When I say red it looks like the red glow you would see in a coal bed of a hot fire. There were 5 or 7 of them flying in an uneven V formation flying Parallel to the fence line on the property. It’s hard to tell how low they were but they seemed to be maybe the size of a small plane and flying lower than any plane I have ever seen except military planes. They continued flying in the same direction when I asked my boss at the time if he was seeing it too. He replied yes as we kept watching them fly by with no sound. After they got maybe three quarters of the way over the property and trees they started scattering, making very erratic sharp turns, angles and movements really drew your eye to it because i have never thought anything could move like they were never hitting one another or making any noise. Then as they were about to fly over the tree line at the back of the property they formed back into a V formation and flew out of sight keeping the same speed throughout if I remember right. My boss at the time told me not to say anything because he was afraid he might loose his contracts due to people thinking we were crazy. The next day I told some of our colleagues and my boss even acknowledged he saw something but that was it. I haven’t really told that many people till I started seeing pictures and videos on YouTube that were very similar or the same spheres we saw. I’m hoping that by writing this report I can gain some new knowledge of what we saw because I don’t know but one other person to talk to about all this. View Report

Saw three round shaped what looked like lights moving together in kind of a formation, they would fly around each other kind of like braiding hair they were visible for about 5 miles and vanished never seen them again View Report
