Illinois UFO Reports

UFO Report #: 1663
2023-10-02 - Alton, Illinois

I just had a very profound experience tonight while taking my dog out I stopped at the upper area of the hillside within my apartment complex. There is a long stairway that has excellent Arial view at the very top of the stairs. A very unusual light appeared to be moving slowly , then almost stopped for a moment to change direction above the trees. The object seemingly darted to a different angle and had a steady disappearance as it flashed , like a pulse of light. SOON after it disappeared beyond the trees another object appeared at higher above the nights sky, with an entire different flashing, and color almost like a golden top, spinning and making very impressive maneuvers to change its color, as well. It seemed to move at a much faster speed until it disappeared far lower behind these of the hill behind the apartments. I was standing very still, and realizing that there appeared to be at least four of these smaller objects, flashing into a steady Bright light, the larger brighter craft disappeared after hovering and coming closer then lowering itself into a steady hover for over a minute. Thinking the objects might return, I ran into my apartment to grab my phone. It didn't take long for the flashing redish light to appear several minutes later. They circled the wooded area, four objects in all, perhaps had danced and circled, hovered then ultimately just speed away after obviously putting on a spectacular strobe light show effect. The first light appeared around 9:22 pm followed by the others until about 9:33 when they had also appeared and circled , disappearing with no explosion, or formation.

This event took place everyday at Rainbow Beach everyday I would take my kids swimming at around 2pm we would always see a dark object in the same location so I knew it wasn't a balloon or other man made object it seems as if over the park and lake front its like a ufo highway. I've witnessed orbs trailing each other and other objects passing over head.

There are two objects in the sky that I have noticed for the past few days. They are northwest of O'Hare Airport. Not sure if they are stars or some type of Spy Balloons. I only notice them at night. Can this be checked out by a fly by?

41.70420° N, 87.70710° W These are the coordinates of where I viewed this unidentified flying object. The object was long, containing lights. Imagine a biplane pulling a banner with lights, had to have been a city block in length. It was in Mount Greenwood, ILLINOIS. Time of incident was 1839 on the 12th of February. I observed the object for a minute in total and watched it disappear. Unsure if flew into a cloud or disappeared completely.

3-4 uap were flying above the homes in my town. I have very good video footage of the one that continued to come back closer to me. The object had a bright red flashing light on the left, about 3-4 wide rectangular strips of white light on the underbelly. It seems to have had a clear dome atop, with an additional flashing red light. Movement patterns were close in range, maybe 30,000ft.

2023-02-07 - Alsip, Illinois

In alsip il. Was outside smoking a cigarette and had a funny feeling. Looked up at the sky south of my location and an object was moving east from the west. The object was at first in the shape of a long bow and before i couldn’t see it had shifted into a square. The object was almost translucent with a glow that i can only explain as bending light from the city of Chicago’s light pollution.

At 4:00 am i look up through my skylight to see the stars, i saw one which I initially thought was a star but then i saw it was blinking red and blue, i watched it for a while, i thought it was a meteor or something. But then another dot appeared almost like it came out of the initial one, this one was blinking red and white, then it really quickly flew fast in the opposite direction of the first dot and as it did, the first dot faded, still in the same place, till it wasn't there anymore.
