BAFFLED residents of a UK town claim their home is a "UFO hotspot" - with "mysterious disappearances" and even "alien abductions".
Locals in Grimsby reckon they've seen UFOs, aliens, and even had abductions by advanced extra-terrestrial life.
And while "people may think we're mad" residents say what they've experienced is real.
The first alleged sighting at the Lincolnshire town was all the way back in 1956 when an 80ft UFO was apparently spotted over nearby Cleethorpes.
There were two supposed sightings in 1997 with a "cigar-shaped object" and a black triangle spotted at different times over Humber Bridge.

In 2000, a woman claimed to have been abducted from her bed in her home in Tetney.
GrimsbyLive reports the woman said she was abducted from her bed and transported to a metallic UFO.
She said while onboard the craft she saw a man spread-eagled on a table with aliens dissecting him.
She said that one alien in a wig spoke to her: “She didn’t speak to me in words, just put these thoughts in my head. She didn’t scare me, I think she was trying to help."
The woman then, amazingly, woke back up in her bed 11-minutes after she had supposedly been abducted,
The next month the Grimsby Telegraph reportedly had a number of calls as people supposedly saw multiple strange phenomenon.
One woman claimed a two-inch red ball of fire came through her window and passed through her husband's chest.
She said: “We immediately lifted his shirt to see if it had left a mark, but there was nothing there – we daren’t tell anyone at first, it was very frightening. People will think we’re mad but there was nothing in the sky and not a soul around.”
There were also a string of supposed sightings in 2009 with “protractor-shaped” flashes seen in the sky above Grafton Street.
That year aliens also supposedly crashed into a wind turbine, which caught national media attention.

And debate raged a few months later when strange lights were supposedly seen over Scartho with residents not sure if they were Chinese lanterns, a harvest moon, or aliens.
Sightings have continued into with one UFO supposedly being seen in 2022.
One man saw something in the sky and said nothing could have moved as fast as it did with the speed it moved.
He said: “It kept disappearing and coming back. It moved with the plane, parallel. There weren’t any clouds in the sky for it to hide. It was turning invisible in the video I got.”

One resident believed they had caught video of one spacecraft in 2003 near Freeman Street.
That alleged UFO was supposedly seen moving around in the sky for several minutes before a resident grabbed a video camera and filmed grainy footage of the object.
In 2004 objects were supposedly seen that darted across the night sky above Grimsby and reportedly leaving a humming noise.
A fruit seller in 2000 believed he had spotted an alien presence hovering over Willingham Street.
The man said he was embarrassed to admit to seeing the UFO but he could not find any explanation for a white object he saw in the sky.
The next evening a child believed they had seen a UFO from the back of their parents' car while stuck in traffic.

Alleged witness
The child believed they had seen a bright round light, similar in description to the UFO supposedly seen the night before.
While in 2006, a plane spotter captured an image of a supposed UFO when he was snapping a Spitfire flight.
The photographer then claimed a Typhoon from RAF Coningsby then flew out of the airbase 15 minutes later.
Another UK town which is also a supposedly favourite place for aliens to visit is Llanillar in Wales.
After metal was found strewn across a field in 1983 the town was dubbed the "Welsh Roswell".
Farmer Irwel Evans called cops and a team of RAF men and plain clothes officers - dubbed the 'Men in Black' - combed the land and nearby woods, taking away the fragments found.
