Today we will be exploring a strange and unusual encounter that took place in the small town of Kelly, Kentucky, in the year 1955.

Rock Throwing Aliens

On the evening of August 21st, a group of five men were gathered at a farmhouse just outside of Kelly, when they claimed to have been visited by a group of small, humanoid creatures with strange, otherworldly features. These creatures, described as being about three and a half feet tall, with pointed ears, wrinkled skin, and glowing eyes, reportedly appeared out of nowhere and began pelting the house with rocks.

The men, who were armed, fired back at the creatures and claimed to have hit several of them, but the creatures seemed to be unharmed and continued to attack. The encounter lasted for several hours, with the creatures reportedly hovering just outside the windows and making strange noises.

Law Enforcement Investigates

As word of the strange encounter spread, a group of local law enforcement officers arrived at the scene to investigate. They found no evidence of the creatures or any sign of a struggle, and the men’s accounts of the incident were met with skepticism.

Despite this, the men maintained their story and even passed polygraph tests, leading some to believe that there may have been some truth to their account.

The Kelly-Hopkinsville encounter, as it came to be known, remains one of the most mysterious and unexplained events in the annals of UFO lore. To this day, no one knows for certain what the men saw that fateful night in Kentucky, but the legend of the Kelly-Hopkinsville creatures lives on, leaving us to wonder if perhaps, just perhaps, we are not alone in the universe.
