There is a lot more to Rendlesham Forest than just the famous UFO incident…. And it’s something very sinister….But first to the famous case;Situated 2 ½ hours North-East of London, in the County of Suffolk, Rendlesham Forest is owned by the Forestry Commission and managed by Park Rangers, who maintain the trails and paths, and help walkers if they stray off paths. The Forest is 15 square kilometres in size, and comprised of heathland, wetland and coniferous trees.The Forest is best known for the incident which occurred in 1980, and it embroiled the RAF bases Woodbridge, 7 miles away, and Bentwaters, both of which at the time, were home to the U.S. Air-force.Despite the explanations that it must have been a fireball, the light from the near-by lighthouse, freak nocturnal lights, or even stars in the sky, there are those who were at the Bases back then, and who to this day, still stick to the story of what they say really happened.It was around 3 a.m. on Boxing Day, December 26th 1980, when a night security patrol on the Base near the East Gate saw bright lights in the near-distance, descending from the sky into the forest. The American security guards thought it was an aircraft that had come down, and hurried to get to the crash scene to provide assistance.photo credit:Rendlesham Forest UFO: The Christmas InvasionWithin the hour, the local police had been summoned to the forest to investigate, but they felt that the lights in the distance were coming from the Orford Ness lighthouse on the coastline, about 8 kilometres away. The Air-Force security personnel however had seen the lights too, and they believed a small aircraft had descended into the forest.photo credit: Openhearted RebelAfter entering the Forest and going in the direction in which they had seen the descending lights, two of the team came across an object, and it appeared to be a craft mounted on a large tripod.There were no windows on the craft, but there were blinding lights of red and blue on its exterior. They attempted to approach the craft, but as they got closer, it moved, and each time they attempted to reach it, it continued to move, in a cat and mouse game. It levitated in the air each time, and moved back away from the men.photo credit: The Rendlesham Forest UFO Incident – What Happened?This continued for at least an hour inside the dark Forest, with the men completely baffled as to what it was, and what was happening. They continued to follow it until it edged out of the forest and entered a farmer’s field, where it then sped away at incredible speed.One of the Security personnel, Sgt Penniston, said; “We were sent out by Jeep because it could be a crashed plane. We worked our way to the lights by a logging road. The lights were still visible. We were 200 metres away and wanted a clearer look so we decided to proceed by foot. As we got closer we began to see it was an object with lights on it. We stopped 50 metres from it. Our apprehension was building. Just as we began to close in on it, it began to move away through the trees and the more we moved toward it, the faster it moved off. By the time we were at the field it disappeared behind a rise. We were heading back to base when we saw it coming back toward us; we started to run, but within seconds it was up and gone.”Base commander, Col. Ted Conrad, said of the incident, “He said what he saw was slightly larger than a Jeep and rectangular in shape. Two rows of horizontal lights at the front obscured much of it’s details.”Sgt Adrian Bustinza was part of the security night patrol unit who attended the scene. He said that when he arrived at the scene, it was going in and out of the trees and hovering. The next morning, military personnel returned to the Forest and found a small clearing in the vicinity of where the craft had allegedly been seen. There were three impressions in the ground, in a triangular shape, along with burns and branches broken from the surrounding trees. When the police arrived, they expressed the opinion that the marks were caused by ‘animals.’photo credit: Rendlesham Forest UFO - the landing marksOn December 28th, Deputy Base Commander Col. Charles Halt went to the site in the early hours with several of the security personnel, intent on investigating the scene. During the visit, he said he saw separate lights flashing in the field, just as had been seen the other night, and he said a beam of light seemed to reach to ground level. This time, the Colonel had with him a tape recorder in order to log the investigation in real time. He hadn’t been involved in the first sighting, but when it happened again, he was interrupted while attending an officer’s dinner at the Base, when Lt Bruce Englund entered the room and hurriedly said, “It’s back.”The night security patrol had been out and once again seen the strange lights in the sky over the Forest. The Colonel quickly left the dinner and joined the security patrol to go with them to investigate. When they entered the forest, they initially went to the site of the first alleged landing of the craft. They were attempting to get a Geiger counter reading. They were examining abrasions in the surrounding trees. One of the security personnel on the scene says on tape, “The indentations look like something twisted as it dropped. It’s very strange.”Col. Hall says, “Looking overhead; can see an opening in the trees and some freshly broken branches on the ground. We’re hearing some very strange sounds coming out of the farmer’s animals. They are making a lot of noise. They’re very active.”Then, the strange lights begin to be seen again. On tape, one of the personnel says, “There it is - there it is again. Red light.... It’s coming this way; It’s definitely coming this way. Pieces of it are shooting off!”Col. Halt says, “Flashlights off! There’s something very very strange….” They move to try to get closer to the location of the light. “It’s moving from side to side. So bright it almost burns your eyes…. We’re crossing the field…. Multiple sightings now; Up to five lights....”“We’ve crossed a creek. Strobe flashes.…. Some kind of phenomenon. The ones to the North moving away, Fast. From the South he’s coming toward us….. A beam coming down to the ground…..This is unreal…..”It’s now 3.25 a.m. and a check-in call comes from the base. At base, they say they can see nothing on the radars.In 2013, at a Citizen Disclosure Hearing in Washington's D.C.'s National Press Club, two of the security personnel who were involved in the sighting on the first night, December 26th, gave testimony about what they say happened that night. They described a craft approximately 9 feet by 6 feet, hovering above the Forest floor. Lights were emitting from the craft. Their communication equipment stopped working. They felt a strong static charge of electricity. They approached it, unable to resist checking the curious object out. As they edged closer to it, they said they could see strange symbols on the craft, that appeared to look like hieroglyphics. A blast of light exploded from the craft, stunning them and knocking them to the floor. It was then that they thought they were going to die.It was what happened next that Sgt Jim Penniston has described as "probably the worst thing I ever did." He walked up to the craft and touched it. It felt warm, and was smooth, like a glass surface. They both looked under it, trying to work out how it was hovering above the forest floor. It was black, triangular, and glass-like. He said that when it rose to leave, there was no semblance of a conventional lift-off. “There was no sound, no air movement. To this day I have seen nothing like it...” And he remains convinced, “It was under intelligent control.”When they returned to base they found that their watches must have stopped during the incident, because their watches were now showing a time 45 minutes behind what time it really was. They didn’t have any more sightings after that, however, it was not long after this that both of them became very ill. They both believe it was as a result of radiation exposure. For Penniston, an inner ear disorder developed too. Later this was diagnosed by the military doctors as Meniere’s Disease, a condition of imbalance within the ear which causes dizziness and nausea. He says that in later years, post-traumatic stress set in, along with great difficulty in sleeping.Decades later, he underwent hypnosis in which he talked about time travelers and the receipt of binary code. Under hypnosis, he said something inexplicable: “They are time travellers — they are us.”He still couldn’t sleep and his PTSD continued unabated. At the time of the incident, something else very strange occurred; something which he didn’t talk about for many years. He says that when he touched the strange hieroglyphics on the exterior of the craft, he received a telepathic ‘download’ into his mind; it was an unintelligible binary code of numbers. “They were flashing through my mind and I had a feeling to write them. I did and immediately after, the codes were gone from my mind.”He had kept this to himself for many years, he said. When de-briefed, he’d said nothing about it, fearing that if he did he would be declared mentally unfit for duty. But in bed, he couldn’t sleep for all the flashes of numbers in his head: “They were imprinted in my mind like a hot branding iron.”He wrote 16 pages of notes - the vast majority of which were an extensive series of combinations of numbers that to him were meaningless. This Binary code, deciphered by Code expert Joe Luciano, was said to include co-ordinates to the Great Pyramids, Sedona in Arizona, and the co-ordinates to Hy-Brasil. Hy-Brasil was a legendary Island in the Atlantic Ocean off the Coast of Ireland. Jim Penniston did not know any of these references at the time. He did not know that among the vast 16 pages set of numbers, would be the co-ordinates of these places including Hy-Brasil. In Irish folklore, this place takes its name from Breasal, and it means the ‘High King of the World.’photo credit: Hy-Brasil: The Legendary Phantom Island of Ireland http://www.ancient-origins.net/unexplained-phenomena/hy-brasil-legendary-phantom-island-ireland-003608The Island in fact appeared on ancient Maps in the 1300’s, and was situated off the West Coast of Ireland. By the 1800’s, it had disappeared from Maps, due to the impossibility of verifying its existence. However, ancient sightings of the Island did exist. Legends said that the Island was shrouded almost permanently in a vast mist, which dissipated for only one day, once in every seven years and it was then that visibility of the mysterious Island was possible.Two Saints spoke of having visited the Island. Saint Brendan and Saint Barrind both said that they had visited there at separate times, and both returned with very similar tales, of an Island of vast opulence, with tall, gold-domed buildings and wealthy citizens. It was believed to be home to a prosperous and highly advanced civilization. The Saints called it ‘the Promised Land.”Another documented experience was that of Captain John Nisbet in 1674. He wrote that his crew were shrouded by fog, which as it lifted, showed their ship to be dangerously close to some rocks. They weighed anchor and some of the crew went onto the island which had appeared in front of them. They rowed to the Island and went ashore. Later, on his return to Ireland, the Captain was bearing gifts of gold, and he explained that they had encountered giant black rabbits and a Wizard who lived in a Castle.Not long after that, another party set out to find the Island, under the command of a Captain called Alexandre Johnson. He too returned to Ireland with the same description of having been ashore on the verdant and flourishing Island.In 1684, Irish historian Roderick O’Flaherty wrote of a man called Murrough O’Ley, who claimed he was kidnapped by three men and taken to the Island and kept prisoner there, while a fisherman who also said he had been on the Island, returned saying that he was now able to perform ‘psychic surgery’ on sick people to heal them, after being given an enchanted book by one of the island’s inhabitants.In Irish tradition, it is thought to be home to one of the ancient clans of Ireland. Some suggest the mysterious Island is not the home of ancient Celtic Gods however, but rather, is home to an advanced Alien race, while others claim it perhaps exists but in an alternate dimension to ours.The telepathic download Penniston received that night from the hieroglyphics he touched on the mysterious craft, once decoded, were the exact co-ordinates of this legendary Island, as charted on ancient maps from the 1300’s, and which it is highly unlikely he had ever heard of. The question is, why was he given the Binary code co-ordinates to this Island?But this is not the end of the Rendlesham Forest mysteries:As an author on Unexplained Mysteries, I was recently contacted by a man called Chris Nash. He had a very strange and rather disturbing set of photographs. They had been taken in Rendlesham forest, and at his home, because whatever had been in the forest had followed him home.The photos appear to display a demon. Or, an alien. Whatever it is, the malevolence is clear to see in its yellow eyes amid the darkness of the forest at night. It appears to have an angular face, deep set bright eyes. It is not fully clear but the eyes are there to see. “Whatever it was, it hitched a ride back to where I live, as I’ve had a presence at my house ever since. Not a nice presence…”(this is not the photo For privacy it is kept confidential to protect the witness)“In the forest I’ve experienced voices, shadow people, strange lights, the feeling of being sick like death. Personally I had a night where I was walking up a well-known path back to my car and I heard something whisper my name, then I felt a presence. A few seconds later, it was bearing down on my back. After this I had a feeling of being terrified. I was told by a medium I was playing with fire if I kept going back to the forest and something bad would happen if I continued to go. Not that that put me off.”Now however, he feels he may regret his continued visits to the forest at night. “I've got something here at the house that wants a piece of me…. A friend is saying its possibly a succubus, a demon. I heard a growl the other day in my front room, and this morning in bed I couldn't breathe, and it felt like something was pressing down on my chest. I feel like I've got a battle going on in my mind. Is this the battle we all face? Good vs Evil? I’m sleeping with the lights on and it seems OK…..Strange; maybe the light puts them off? I know they love the dark. Demons look like what’s in the photograph. Can you see the horns? It looks like a devil; you tell me?”It did indeed look like a demon. In fact, I’ve never seen anything quite like or, or as disturbing. It’s a very disturbing photograph. A sense of evil pervades the image and it’s impossible to deny that it looks anything other than a demon, or alien, but a gut, instinctive feeling leans toward the demonic. It feels very uncomfortable to look at it, as though it is acknowledging it and welcoming its presence just by doing so; as if it is a taboo and cursed thing to do. Perhaps that is just superstition, but then, I wouldn’t want to test that theory.He showed me another photograph; “When I woke up one morning, there was this mark: - there's 6 fingers.” The photograph shows six marks on his skin. They look like red finger marks, left on the skin from pressing hard down on it. There are six finger marks, not five....Chris has been visiting Rendlesham Forest for several years now, sometimes several times a week. It’s a couple of hours drive from where he lives to get there, but something keeps drawing him back, despite the warnings and the dark sinister attachment he now seems to have in his house. He took the photographs to a local medium. She insisted he take the photographs out of her house immediately. She told him she would not have them in her house; so strongly did she feel that it was an entity captured in the photos, of a power she did not want to be confronted with.Though Chris wants help, he feels torn between whether asking for help would make his current situation worse. He says he is torn between exorcism or spiritual cleansing. He fears goading the entity. He also feels he can manage with the situation, but only time will tell if that is the case. Of the entities he says he has seen in the forest at night, he asks, could they all be malevolent or could any of them be good? Like with people, perhaps both benevolent and malevolent spirits or entities occupy the forest.Nature spirits who mean no ill-will perhaps, spirits of the departed returning maybe, but alongside these there may be mischievous and ill-intending darker forces. It’s by the East Gate of the forest that Chris and his friends have experienced most activity. It was there that he captured the demonic face in the photograph. He said he could feel a presence before he reached for his camera. That presence has now followed him home, and often now, he feels something is standing behind him.In the forest he says he has seen dark shadow people fleeting out of the corner of his eyes; it was one of the first things he noticed in the forest when strange things began happening. He’s seen, and captured on film, orbs, and also white streaks that resemble ectoplasm or phantasms.Though he has not seen anything that resembles Extra Terrestrials; several of those in his group have, and on many occasions. He and his friends began to go there at night, initially drawn to the place after the famous Rendlesham Forest incident. They wanted to explore it at night. Often they would go there, light a bonfire and camp out. They visited other forests too; but this was the one that seemed teeming with activity that does not come from our world.Of all of his experiences there, it is the demonic entity that has most disturbed him. Perhaps even more alarming, Chris says he wonders if the Demon is tempting him. There have been instances where he has had reason to think badly of other people; circumstances in his life, like in everyone’s life, where harmonious relationships sometimes turn bad due to the actions of others, and our thoughts toward them become angry. We may even wish them harm: mentally, and even physically. It’s our natural instinct to seek vengeance as our thoughts turn to revenge against those who may have hurt us.In Chris’s case, he did harbour bad thoughts towards someone; only this time, he wonders if his negative thoughts turned into reality. He wonders; did his darkest wishes manifest into action? - Someone died, and he’d been wishing them dead. Then it happened another time. He fears there is a spiritual battle between good and evil going on inside his head. He feels he is being offered some form of supernatural power by the entity, and being tempted to take it. He feels the demon may be doing things for him, to prove how much power he could have if he made a deal with it and allowed him in. He even accepts how good it would be to accept that deal, to have that power…..but he won’t do that deal.One of the people Chris goes to the forest with is a lady called Brenda Butler. She’s been going there for many years. Chris says she has captured even more images than him; a multitude of strange images in photographs taken inside the forest. Orbs, strands of misty white, faces, dark shapes, and many other unidentifiable anomalies. Brenda Butler has been going to the Forest for decades. She gave a lecture in 2010, in which she described an incident in November, 1979; a year prior to the famous Rendlesham Forest incident, in which U.S. Air-force security witnessed what they believe, was a U.F.O. landing in the forest.In 1979, Ms Butler was living on a farm at Aldringham (20 minutes from the Forest). “That night a craft came down in the field. It was 3 a.m. My father also saw it. The next morning there were broken tree-tops, and holes and marks in the fields. At the end of November, local people were saying they’d seen UFO’s. People came forward to say they’d seen little monks, little people….. A Rabbit Catcher said he saw some little figures.He immediately phoned the RAF base security – he thought they were little children in fancy dress. The RAF security guards came out and went toward them – the figures vanished. The Rabbit Catcher said he was then arrested and taken to the base and questioned. After that, he was reluctant to report it when he had other sightings.”In January, 1980, the UFO reports continued, she said. When she heard of the Rendlesham Forest Incident experienced by the American security guards, she says there were several independent English witnesses to it too.At 11 a.m. on the day after the sighting, a man told her he was out walking his dog when he came across three men in what he said were ‘silver’ firemen’s outfit - or at least, he assumed they were firemen, although he knew British fireman do not wear silver. He said it was bright lights that had drawn him to them, and as he approached the lights through the woods, he hid behind a tree, and from there he could see the three figures.He said he saw a silver ‘missile-type thing’ on the forest floor, and the three men were covering it over with some kind of tarpaulin. He had refused to talk after this initial report however, said Ms Butler; he was scared, and he said he’d been warned not to talk. He added that he didn’t think it was a UFO.photo credit: The Greys Grays Alien Race, Species, Pictures and Videos|Alien-UFO-Research|“We’ve seen greys here,” she says. “We’ve seen them walking. They’ve stood beside us. We’ve seen them working – I don’t know what they were doing. I think they were building something. They were taking things away. I think they go to another dimension. Myself and an American have had missing time here - I don’t know what happened, but we lost four hours.”“We were walking down a trail. We saw a big white light. It split apart into 3 lights, then they re-merged into one light. A helicopter came over the trees, chasing it. We were watching it chasing it toward the sea. When we went to leave the forest, nothing looked the same. There were no trees, no familiar sights. We walked for ages and ages. We couldn’t find our way back – the area wasn’t the same. It was just like open fields. No trees, no bushes. We didn’t know where we were or what was happening. Eventually, we did get back to the car. We drove round to where we believed we had been – and everything was normal; the trees, the bushes, everything. I’ve been with a friend in the Forest, walking together along-side each other and the next minute I’m right across on the other side of the forest; - in seconds I’ve gone right across the Forest.”“Other people have told me they’ve been dragged down into an underground tunnel by E.T.’s – I don’t believe that. We’ve looked everywhere but we can’t find any tunnels. There are portals – we have photos of that. I have photos of E.T.’s coming out of the portals.”Given her 30 years of experiences within the Forest, she has written a book based on her investigations, called ‘Sky Crash through Time; a continued investigation into the Rendlesham UFO mystery.’Sky Crash Throughout Time: A Continued Investigation into the Rendlesham UFO Mystery: Philip Kinsella, Brenda Butler: 9781861633477: Amazon.com: BooksOn Sunday, January 25th, 2015, a dog walker believes he captured a UFO in the sky above Rendlesham Forest. He posted the footage on the internet and the BBC contacted him to interview him. Local man George Taylor was walking in the Forest with his dog when he says, “I spotted three balls of light in the sky. Couldn’t believe what I was seeing. I had a weird feeling that I shouldn’t be there. I recorded it on my phone and uploaded it to see if anyone else witnessed anything similar yesterday. Very strange! Anyone have any idea what it may be? I know the Forest has a long history of this but I didn’t really believe in it as I haven’t seen anything odd in all the years I’ve lived here - until this. I regularly take my dogs for a walk here and I’ve never seen anything as strange as this.”The footage shows three dancing Orbs in the sky above him, above the clouds but in clear daylight. Strangely, there is a low flying helicopter going over the forest at the same time. People have suggested it’s a stunt, or a fake, or it’s flares; but flares can’t behave that way….The full investigation of these incidents at Rendlesham Forest appears in this book:Amazon.com: Panic in the Woods (9781540605382): Stephen Young, Steph Young: Books
