Round, flat UFO with lights all around, over Hwy 78 Walker Co Alabama.

I was driving my daughter and her friends back from the haunted trail on Halloween night, heading away from Jasper on Hwy 78.

We were about to enter the big curve, before the river bridge, when I saw a strange light. As we came around the curve, I saw the disc shaped object just long enough to make out the shape and see the beautiful lights on it. It was a perfectly round shape, flat on top and on bottom, with lights going all around the edges.

These lights had the most beautiful color and it was a color I still have a hard time identifying (I have never seen the same exact color in my lifetime and I am now 45 yrs old). The color that comes closest to matching would be a mix of gray and purple with a misty pink hue to it. It was brilliant and really beautiful.

The lights seemed to be circling the craft, but could have been blinking. I did not hear any noise with this sight at all. This was only within my sight for a brief but exciting minute!

It flew off at a left angle then made a sharp right, around the bend at the bridge and was gone in the fog, moving very fast. One of my daughters friends was in the front with me and she and I discussed it again last month. She barely remembers because they were young teens, but she does remember me saying "Look, there's a UFO!" My excitement over UFO's all my life made this VERY exciting for me, I really did not have any fear.

After reaging about the Chicago O'Hare Airport sighting and finding your link, I made the decision to report it here. Felt it was important to add it to the list of US sightings.

NUFORC Note:

Date of sighting may be approximate, although the witness does not indicate that fact. PD
