I was 15 in 84. Lived on a hill in Carmel that looked over the lake. Kent was in the distance and one night I saw it hovering in the distance. It moved slowly, was big and made no noise. Never forget it.

I, along with several others saw this same UFO in Yonkers, 1984.
A massive "V" shaped silent craft.

I first heard of the Hudson Valley UFO on Robert Stack's Unsolved Mysteries.

I'm grateful that it hasn't been forgotten.

My husband and I saw it along with a parking lot if others near the Peekskill Bowling Alley.

I’m from the Hudson valley NY my whole life and it for sure is a hotspot there has been tons of strange sightings over the years

[DrRick-dqbb]

I live in the Hudson Valley, NY. One evening about a month ago, I saw what I initially thought was a drone pulling a long narrow sign that was lit up with what appeared to be hieroglyphics, most likely a prank. The weird part was this long narrow sign just continued to move overhead for about 4 minutes with hundreds of strange geometric symbols. I cannot estimate the length of this narrow banner in the sky, but if it was moving at 60 mph (I think it was actually moving faster) it would have been at least 4 miles in length! There was absolutely no sound and I live in a very quiet area. Incredibly strange experience.

I live in hudson NY I was born here And I'm 46 years old. Over being here these yrs many times weird vibration or humming tones then a sighting.

[EstiloSkateboards]

I lived in Ridgefield Connecticut. A Triangle craft with three red lights the size of a destroyer flew silently directly over me twice within 5 minutes.i could only see its mass because the stars dissapeared but it messed with my depth perception. twas Amazing.

[TheLegion]

The one I saw was in late 80's. It was triangular with a single light in the back. It was making a strange sound and this thing was Bigger than a plane. It hovered over a stream. Only helicopters can hover. The lights started to move and when my neighbors and family went to go see it from a better vantage point on a mountain. When we got there it was gone.

Lived thru this a couple years after i graduated high school. I thought I was just crazy. Wow. It’s taken forty years to see that others saw it
Too. Thanx for this video. What I’ve been saying for most of my life. I lived in Catskill but was in the road a lot and more than once
I pulled over and rubbed my eyes. Never went in record- was also partying back in those days and pulled alot of all nighters. The world is waking up🌸🌺❤️👽🛸🛸👽momma lala

Who else is wishing the Ancient Alien cast had a network news channel right about now?! With everything being shot down over our skies, I sure wish THEY were covering it rather than the news commentators!!! To hear from Georgio! Or Travis Taylor! I mean, come on....we need them to cover these unidentified flying objects!!!!

[lucygreene]

And in 1974 on the Hudson. There where 3. I was there. 3 of us girls became missing for hours. We all 3 thought no time had passed. We saw 3 disk shaped flying objects. One of the girls I was with started painting and drawing them soon after. The other girl got so freaked out she dropped out of school. I never forgot about that day and have been reading about them ever since.

In the 90's a couple of friends and I would take the Metro North train up from NYC to go UFO hunting in Pine Bush. They'd been up before. We would do a check-in at the police station there to let them know we'd be wandering around in case someone called in about it. We had no car. They'd shared their own stories and of people they knew who'd seen stuff. Never did see anything, but it was fun to do.

[warewolven]

I lived in Saugerties back then. My brothers called me outside and the whole neighborhood was out there watching it as it hovered over our neighborhood. It was huge.

[BehaviourPsychologis]

History Channel should be called the Disclosure Channel. You have covered the UFO topic really well.

[matto.]

I'm from Ulster County in the Hudson Valley, I've not seen anything here in the 30 or so years that I've lived here but there's stories from different folks I've known who have stories of things they've seen.

[anthonyyoutubefan]

Hudson Valley. A region that has had fascinating otherworldly events, going all the way back to the mythology of Sleepy Hollow.

[tonytony]

Your presentation is highly interesting to watch. Thank you very much and take care.

[mathewlopez]

I live in Dutchess county and never really believed in UFOS, but few months ago I saw something similar in the video but orange hue rather than blue. And now this video…🧐🧐🧐
