The Warminster Window
The topmost creepiest thing I ever experienced.
I'm not sure if Ive posted this before.
IIt may be open to derision and/or rational explanations but whatever the reason I'll never forget the sheer terror at the time.
Early 80's travelling home from a week of Glastonbury & Stonehenge festival revelry back to Yorkshire.
Somewhere in Wiltshire we got lost and found ourselves away from the major roads and in unlit rural lanes.
No worries, we could see the lights of motorways and service stations in the distance.
Until the car started to have difficulties.
It started to cut out, lights go off, engine stalling etc, we limped along for a while until total breakdown, Car is a dead as a dodo.
We get out and I watch as my mate checks the engine etc and cant find anything wrong.
And then while we are standing there, 'it' happens.
The hairs on my neck go up and I start to shake, I look over to my mate to say something and he's standing there frozen, looking up.
I look up too, and although I cant see anything, or hear anything I just know/feel that something is passing overhead, something silent and huge, I have this impression that the night sky is vanishing behind it.
Theres a kind of thrumming inside me that makes me want to empty my bladder urgently and with an apology to my mate I squat down in the middle of the road ( no way was I going to hide in a hedge) and pee, turning around I saw my mate was doing the same.
We then clung onto each other for a few minutes utterly terrified.
Then suddenly a bright beam of light swept down the brow of the hill onto us and we both screamed, until we realiseed it was a lorry.
We stood in the road and waved frantically at it until it stopped about 10 feet away from us.
We said we had broken down and the driver said he'd get out his jump leads.
As he got out of the cab,, the oppressive feeling lifts and the car suddenly burst into life, headlights, engine, windscreen wipers and radio came on, we jumped.
Lorry driver was a bit WTF but we thanked him for stopping, got back into the car with another look at the sky and fecked off sharpish.
20 minutes later we are at a service station having not said a word during the journey, necking coffee like it was going out of fashion and still shaking
Once back home it was a while before i could tell anyone of this, and then a while later I got a call from someone from an UFO organisation who wanted to document the experience. Seems we were right in the the middle of the "Warminster Window" when this happened
To this day I really dont know what it was, I only know it was the creepiest experience of my life

Rational explainations be damned!
This is a cracking story.

(And not just because it mentions lady-wee!)

Warminster triangle
Is what it seems to be known as now.
Loads of UFO incidents in that area, but as its all MOD round there probably some secret military testing
