SIGHTING: OSAKIS, MN (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"I've recently been thinking of a sighting almost ten years ago now with my brother and I. And I have just started looking for similar sightings and I can't find any. So in hopes of contacting the others there here's our story. We were just passing through osakis from alex just a few days after a friend's wedding on st patricks day 2006. As you just get out of town past the legion post is a hill with trees. It was well past midnight. As we noticed a extremely bright light illuminating the trees ahead. The light lit them up for a few seconds then it'd go out and repeated over and over. We assumed snowmobiles since we traveled this exact way countless times as my parents divorced many years earlier and one in alex and one in St cloud we went back and forth every other weekends for almost 6 years. We knew there was no silo, radio tower, or anything but vast farm fields. As we got over the hill with the trees we seen the origin of the light. It wasnt a  sighting in the traditional sense. All we saw was the continued on and off again, many stories up in the sky. But now we saw it lit up the whole field for a mile. We pulled over talking about what it could be. As we got out of the car there was no noise just the continued pulse. No movement of the light either. And everytime it went out nothing was there. We could make out the houses in detail that the light lit up. Up the road we saw another car pulled over. Once the light was on I could see clear as day even tho it's midnight and almost a mile up the road. I could see a red car, with a man driving and a woman as passenger standing like us watching. I can't recall their details now but I know we could see all their features because of this light. The light continued for about 5 minutes as I asked my brother to go up to these other people to talk since they'd been there since we came over the hill. But it just got brighter than ever and for almost 30 seconds straight and went out and as our eyes adjusted we could only see stars. Nothing unusual. The car ahead now only taillights. We jumped in to race to the others to talk but we couldn't catch up even at 80 mph in a 55. As we got to west union we lost them and went on to 94 heading home and confused at what had just happened. We still laugh to this day when we talk about it because everyone's always skeptical. But we knew this place and still go by today and as we pass without a word remembering our sighting."
