Image: AI-generated (Bing AI / Dall-E 3) The strangeness began on the evening of January 6, 1976 when three friends - Mona Stafford, Louise Smith and Elaine Thomas had been driving home - a journey of 35 miles - from Liberty, Kentucky where they had enjoyed a meal at a restaurant to celebrate Mona's birthday.

At around 11:15pm, they noticed a strange red object in the sky that they initially thought to be an airplane but that quickly turned out to be something a lot bigger and a lot more sinister.

Over the next few minutes, the object seemed to toy with their vehicle - first appearing 100 yards ahead and then circling back around and showing up behind them with a blue light instead of red.

Suddenly, Louise, who had been driving, found that she was no longer able to control the car - some unseen force had taken over and was accelerating the vehicle up to speeds of 85mph.

The women felt their eyes burning as everything seemed to fade away.Next thing they knew, they were 8 miles away on the outskirts of Hustonville and the clock showed that it was now 20 minutes later, with none of the women recalling what had happened.

They quickly discovered that they had sustained mysterious burn marks on their bodies and Louise found that her watch had started to spin uncontrollably.

Later, it turned out that local authorities had received several UFO reports from other individuals on the same evening and all three women passed a lie detector test about their experience.

They even underwent hypnotic regression in an effort to find out what happened and recalled encountering strange shodowy entities who abducted and examined them.

To date, no definitive explanation for their experiences has ever been forthcoming.
