Welcome to a special Holiday episode of the I Want to Believe podcast! In early 1965, odd rumors began to circulate through the small English town of Warminster. Bizarre sounds had been heard on the morning of Christmas 1964, which would be followed by a long period of strange sightings. Soon, Warminster was swarmed by UFO enthusiasts, all wanting to learn about “The Thing.”
Before we jump into the episode, here are the I Want to Believe social media & email links. My brand-new book, We Only Come Out at Night, is now available for purchase. This book is a collection of short horror stories and can be found online at: SlevikStore.Company.Site and at the Green Hand Bookshop. Valerie’s Tangled Web of Friends book series can be found on Amazon.
Michael Whelan wrote, “Odd sightings and sounds were reported irregularly in Warminster, dating back to as early as the 1930's - incidents that predate the second World War, as well as the advent of the modern science fiction genre. However few and far in-between, bizarre encounters around Warminster seem to pre-date the rest of the world's UFO craze by several decades.”
The early reports mainly consisted of odd sounds described as "crackling & scratch-like". The reports of bizarre sounds continued through the ‘30s, ‘40s and ‘50s. However, it wouldn’t be until December of 1964 when rumors of something otherworldly may be taking place in the small hamlet. A local journalist’s article about the bizarre encounter was published in the Warminster Journal in January of 1965. The article actually became the newspaper’s most popular story ever published in its history... listen to the episode for the rest of the story.
