Date & time: October 6th, 2013, around 10PM Location: Crosby County, Texas, USA I want to start this story by saying that this wasn’t my encounter. This is a story my husband told me back in 2013. As the title reads my husband was always, and still is somewhat a skeptic when it comes to anything paranormal, ufo related, cryptids…. Etc. Now on to the story. It was 2013 and I was at work, I was working at Subway at the time. We were both 23 at the time and had a daughter who was roughly 9 months old at the time. I was working a late shift and my husband was at home with our daughter about 25 miles away in the small town we lived in. He had dropped me off so he was going to pick me up. As I’m cleaning up and closing I see our car show up and park. I finish up and walk outside to the car, he appears to be asleep with my daughter also asleep in her car seat. The doors are locked so I knock on the window and it startles him awake. He seems mad and a bit confused at this point. So I get in and we start the 25 minute drive home. I instantly notice something is obviously wrong with him so I question him. He brushes my questions off but I know something is up so I persist. Finally after about 10 minutes he tells me this story, he was driving between the town we lived in and the next town over. He says he sees this sort of ripple effect and a green light up in the sky suddenly appears. It shoots across the horizon and shortly after he sees a formation of jets shoot across the horizon as well. He says he hardly had any time to process anything he had just seen when the green light appears again. He tells me that the light flies downward towards our car and as he is entering the next town he makes a hard right swerve as the light barrels towards him. The next thing he remembers is me waking him up. He doesn’t remember anything after swerving. I laughed, he didn’t believe in anything like UFO’s so I thought he was pulling my leg. I quickly realized that he is dead serious and the look of pure fear on this man’s face sends chills down my spine. My husband is a very manly man, he isn’t scared easily, he’s the type of guy that is 100% a protector, so seeing him visibly shaken was new and terrifying. So he tells me what time he left the house and the time he showed up aligns with the time it takes to drive the distance. Anyways we get home and I believe him but I’m also sort of disbelieving him as well. You see I believe in everything creepy, scary, paranormal you name it, but I’ve never had an encounter so it’s somewhat surreal to me that he saw this. What convinces me is a noise at our door that scares him to the point he runs to the kitchen and grabs a knife, it was a stray cat though. The rest of the night is pretty uneventful, no aliens come for us, no green lights, and he sleeps with the knife that night. Years later my son who wasn’t with my husband at the time told his friends my husband was abducted by aliens, we laugh it off but I wonder what really happened?! Why didn’t he remember the rest of the drive, is it possible he and my daughter were abducted? I guess I’ll never know. He doesn’t like me to tell this story because I think he’s embarrassed and just wants to pretend it never happened. I believe him though! submitted by /u/MayoSkined89 [link] [comments]
