On the calm evening of July 13th, 2013, as twilight deepened over Haddon Heights, New Jersey, my partner and I found ourselves drawn unexpectedly to the sky through the large windows surrounding our living room. We were settled comfortably, the silence of routine evening watching TV soon broken by a subtle yet extraordinary presence.
Suddenly, she pointed past me, and there it was—a distinct triangular craft, luminous with eerie yellow-green lights gracing its two visible sides. It was moving steadily, slower than any plane we knew, drifting low across the sky in a path that carved westward over the neighborhood. The object’s glow felt otherworldly, casting an uncomfortably vivid light against the dimming sky.
As the mysterious craft vanished, our attention shifted quickly to a bright searchlight from what appeared to be a military aircraft nearby—perhaps in pursuit, or simply following its own unseen mission. The low, humming sound emanating from the mysterious object was unlike the roar of commercial jets, quieter but unnerving.
The unusual event didn’t just capture human eyes; our German Shepherd was alert and restless, barking in a way that hinted at instinctive unease, a reaction to something beyond the ordinary. Haddon Heights, lying beneath a busy flight path to Philadelphia International Airport, often sees planes overhead, yet what we observed was not routine—the shape, the silence, and the strange lights were unmistakably unnatural.
This encounter left us pondering whether others in the area noticed this bizarre visitor in the sky that summer night. Would others remember that night when something silently traversed the skies above Haddon Heights, leaving a trail of questions and a hint of the unknown?
