Spooky Calderdale Hallowe’en special:
Was policeman Alan Godfrey abducted by aliens after UFO sighting? [/color][/size]
Published on Monday 31 October 2011 08:51
On Saturday the Courier revealed how 142 calls - many of them from Calderdale - were made to police reporting supernatural happenings.
Frantic residents reported witches, ghouls, UFOs and vampires.
Today, using material from the Courier archives and the book Yorkshire Stories of the Supernatural by Countryside Books, reporter Ruth Mosalski tells of other unexplained happenings in Yorkshire that have gripped the headlines.
The first is Todmorden UFO sighting by policeman Alan Godfrey...
Police officer Alan Godfrey was on routine patrol in Todmorden in November 1980.
He had been called out to Ashenhurst and was driving along Burnley Road.
Ahead was a bright light.
He stopped the car. Blinked once – and blinked again.
What stood before him, he says, was a metallic disc with a dome and a row of windows.
He began sketching what he saw in his notebook.
Suddenly, there was a burst of light and he found himself 100 yards farther down the road. The UFO was gone.
Later, under hypnosis, he recalled being struck by a beam of light which floated him into the craft.
There, he says, he met a human-like being named Joseph, whose clothing was Biblical.
Alan says that inside the spaceship he was physically examined and asked questions.
He said what he had first seen was a diamond-shaped UFO, hovering about five feet above the ground in Burnley Road before disappearing.
PC Godfrey said he realised he had suffered “missing time.”
At the hypnosis session, he described being enveloped in an intense white light.
