We're trucking right along with UFO WEEK here at Theresa's Haunted History! Today's blog post comes from the October 21, 1968 edition of The Charleston Daily Mail, and tells the experience of a family of seven seeing a UFO in Clay County, WV. The article mentions that what the family saw is similar to what had been seen forty miles away in Summersville. Research into that is on-going...
An unidentified flying object was sighted Sunday night by a State Road Commission employee and his family as they were driving in Clay County.
"We saw it twice," Claude Keenan told the Daily Mail today. "It was a real tremendously bright object."
Keenan said he, his wife, and five children were traveling along W.Va. 4 in Clay County about 10:30 pm when they spotted the object overtop a car.
"My wife said it was the first time she'd seen a falling star that close. The children were very upset," Keenan said.
"We tried to calm the children and when we looked again, it was traveling alongside a car and then disappeared."
"It looked like that UFO that's been seen around Summersville," Keenan continued, "and where we saw it was 40 miles away."
