Date: April 12 1989 Time: 00:25 a.m.

Mrs. H. and her husband had been to work on April 12, came home and had dinner. She fell asleep in the dining room at about 2100 hrs and slept for some 30 minutes. At about 2300 hrs the couple had gone to bed. Mr. H. fell asleep within 5-10 minutes. However, Mrs. H. remained awake, saying she could not sleep due to her husband’s snoring. Their bedroom was slightly illuminated by external (street) lights, consequently the room was never completely dark. No room lights were on at the time of the incident.

About 00:25 hrs, Mrs. H. was aware of lying on her back, looking at the ceiling, when the incident occurred. Her right hand was under her head. Suddenly, a strange noise, unlike anything she has ever encountered started. It was very high pitched, loud, and continuous. The noise covered up the sound of her husband’s snoring, plus all the external noises. She was only able to hear this noise. Upon hearing the noise, she turned to her right (she cannot say why). On the right side of her bed is a night table some 40cm tall, then there is a wall. On her husband’s side is the window through which a little light shone. On the table was a cup with a little tea in it, a wedding picture, an alarm clock, and a box with her gold earrings in it. She became afraid and although she felt she could move if she wished, she chose not to do so.

By the table, and therefore her bed, was an entity – estimated as 60-70cm tall. It was semi-transparent, “like looking through a curtain.” All around the body boundary was a pinkish color. She noted it wore a bright neon green belt – a green ring (no buckle etc). It was holding her teacup and looking into it. She concentrated her gaze on the cup and the entity’s arm. Then she looked at the green belt. Returning her gaze to the cup she found that the entity had replaced it on the table. She then looked up, but she was unable to describe the head etc. Whether this is because there was not one or whether she cannot recall what she saw is not clear. She could not describe the hands either, e.g., how many fingers it had (if any). She did, however, say it moved as if in slow motion. The entity then picked up the small box with the earrings but did not open it at all.

At this moment, due to fear, Mrs. H. moved. The entity replaced the box. Then it touched its belt and disappeared. The disappearance was “like switching off a light.” The unusual noise stopped at this point. She then woke her husband and told him what happened. He checked the time and found it was 0029 hrs. He had heard and felt nothing at all.
