Chris Bledsoe

Event Summary

On January 8, 2007, Chris Bledsoe Sr., his son Chris Jr., and three subcontractors were fishing near the Cape Fear River in North Carolina. This routine activity took a dramatic turn when Bledsoe Sr. encountered a series of unexplained phenomena that would change his life forever.

While fishing, Bledsoe Sr. walked into the woods alone, driven by a strange feeling. As he ventured further, he suddenly saw three bright objects hovering over a nearby wooded area. These objects emitted an intense light and displayed unusual behavior, such as erratic movements and hovering without making any sound. Bledsoe Sr. was both fascinated and terrified by what he was witnessing.

Realizing the significance of what he was seeing, Bledsoe Sr. hurried back to his companions. He pointed out the objects to them, and they all witnessed the strange lights together. The collective sighting by multiple witnesses, including his son Chris Jr. and the subcontractors, added credibility to Bledsoe's account and provided multiple perspectives on the sighting.

Witness Descriptions
The bright objects observed by Bledsoe and his companions were described as emitting a brilliant white light. The lights were so intense that they made it difficult to discern any specific shapes or details of the objects. However, the witnesses agreed that the objects were unlike anything they had ever seen before.

The subcontractors, whose identities were not widely publicized, confirmed seeing the lights and experiencing the same phenomena described by Bledsoe. Their corroborating accounts strengthened the case and provided additional testimony to support the validity of the sighting.

Additional Experiences and Encounter with an Entity
After the initial sighting, Bledsoe Sr. and his companions left the area and returned home. However, the strange events were far from over. That evening, Bledsoe Sr. heard his dogs barking uncontrollably. Sensing that something was wrong, he decided to investigate the source of their distress.

As he ventured into the backyard woods, Bledsoe Sr. encountered an alien being. The entity was described as humanoid in shape but distinctly otherworldly. This encounter was particularly intense and added a layer of complexity to the initial sighting. The presence of an alien being raised questions about the nature of the phenomena and the intentions of the entities involved.

Hypnosis and Recollection
In the days following the encounter, Bledsoe Sr. struggled to recall the details of the events. The intensity and strangeness of the experiences had left him with gaps in his memory. To help piece together the missing details, Bledsoe Sr. underwent hypnosis sessions conducted by trained professionals.

Through these hypnosis sessions, Bledsoe was able to recall the UFO sightings and the alien encounter in greater detail. He described the bright objects, their movements, and the encounter with the entity. The use of hypnosis in UFO cases is often controversial, but in Bledsoe's case, it provided additional context and information about the incident.

Investigations and Media Coverage
The incident drew significant attention from UFO investigators and researchers. The Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), a prominent organization dedicated to the study of UFO phenomena, took an interest in the case and conducted an in-depth investigation. MUFON's findings supported Bledsoe's claims, noting that the witnesses were credible and that the events described were consistent with other UFO encounters.

The story of Chris Bledsoe and his encounter was featured on the Discovery Channel's series "UFOs Over Earth: The Fayetteville Incident" in 2008. This television feature brought the incident into the public eye and generated widespread interest in Bledsoe's experiences. The episode provided a platform for Bledsoe to share his story and allowed viewers to learn about the details of the sighting.

Continuing Encounters and Documentation
Since the initial sighting in 2007, Chris Bledsoe has reported ongoing encounters with UFOs and other phenomena. He claims to experience these encounters almost daily, seeing orbs and other unexplained lights near his home. Bledsoe has diligently documented many of these sightings, amassing over 2,000 videos of the phenomena. These ongoing experiences have led Bledsoe to believe that he has a special connection with the entities involved.

Government and Scientific Interest
Bledsoe's encounters have drawn the attention of government agencies and scientists. He has stated that both NASA and the CIA have investigated his claims. NASA, in particular, reportedly conducted an investigation over eight years, examining the evidence Bledsoe provided. This level of official interest suggests that the incident was taken seriously by authorities and scientists alike.

Additionally, Bledsoe's story caught the interest of neuroscientists. In one episode of "Beyond Skinwalker Ranch", neuroscientist James Thompson used an electroencephalogram (EEG) to monitor Bledsoe's brain activity while he watched the sky. The EEG showed activity in Bledsoe's temporal lobes, suggesting that he might have been communicating with something telepathically. This scientific investigation added a new dimension to the understanding of Bledsoe's experiences.

Spiritual Dimension
Bledsoe's experiences are not limited to UFO sightings; he also describes them as spiritual encounters. He believes that the beings and orbs he sees are spiritual entities attempting to communicate with him. This spiritual aspect has had a profound impact on Bledsoe's life, influencing his worldview and personal beliefs. He often refers to the encounters as a form of spiritual awakening, prompting him to explore deeper questions about existence and consciousness.

Public Reaction and Isolation
Following the incident and the subsequent media coverage, Bledsoe faced isolation from his community and church. His children were scrutinized at school, and the family endured significant social pressure. Despite these challenges, Bledsoe has remained committed to sharing his story and documenting his encounters.

The reaction from the public has been mixed. While some people are fascinated by Bledsoe's experiences and believe in the authenticity of his claims, others are skeptical and dismissive. The scrutiny and skepticism have been challenging for Bledsoe and his family, but he continues to advocate for openness and awareness about the phenomena he has experienced.

Self-Published Book
In an effort to take control of his story and share his experiences in his own words, Bledsoe self-published a book titled "UFO of GOD: The Extraordinary True Story of Chris Bledsoe". The book details his encounters and the impact they have had on his life. Bledsoe's book has been well-received by those interested in UFO phenomena and has helped to further publicize his story.

Lesser-Known Stories
In addition to the main encounters, Bledsoe has shared lesser-known stories involving owls and other unusual experiences. These outlying phenomena seem to be part of the overall contact phenomena he has experienced. For example, Bledsoe has recounted instances where owls appeared in conjunction with UFO sightings, leading him to believe that these animals might be connected to the encounters in some way.
