KENTUCKY GOBLIN GROUND - Kelly, Kentucky. Spray painted lines denote where the walls of the former Sutton House in Kelly, Kentucky once met at its northeast corner. On the night of August 21st, 1955, the Sutton Family home was allegedly besieged by strange beings, following an encounter a flying saucer, in what would come to be known as "The Kelly-Hopkinsville Encounter." While getting water from the well, witness Billy Ray Taylor claimed to have observed a colorful “flying saucer” traversing the early-evening sky above the farm. Soon after, a group of short, "bug-eyed" creatures with large ears were seen to exit the tree line and began to harass those inside the house (peering through windows and climbing on the roof). Gunfire erupted as the frightened farm folk shot at the curious “goblin-like” beings with no apparent effect. At the first opportunity, the family fled to nearby Hopkinsville to report the "invasion" to the authorities. The resulting investigation and media frenzy launched the "Goblin Encounter" into the realm of famous unexplained UFO cases. Each August, Kelly celebrates the "Kelly-Hopkinsville Goblin Encounter" in the field next to the incident location during it's annual "Little Green Men Days" UFO Festival. This unusual Close Encounter remains Unknown and is considered a classic tale in UFO Lore.

THE SUTTONS BACK ON THE ALIEN GOBLIN FARM - Kelly, Kentucky. Elmer "Lucky" Sutton Jr. and Geraldine Sutton Stith take a ride through the location of the famous August 21, 1955 "UFO Goblin Encounter" in Kelly, Kentucky. It was on this former farm where members of the Sutton Family (their father, Elmer "Lucky" Sutton Sr., being a prime witness), and others, allegedly fought off an all-night "invasion" by strange "silvery creatures" following the sighting of a colorful flying saucer. The town of Kelly now celebrates the legendary "Kelly-Hopkinsville Encounter" each August with a "Little Green Men Days" UFO Festival held next to the encounter site. Elmer "Lucky" Sutton Jr. recently played his father in the independent feature film "Invasion of Kelly" (2017, dir. Joseph Aguon Drake) - which dramatizes the incident and premiered in Hopkinsville this August. Geraldine Sutton Stith is an author ("Alien Legacy" and "Kelly Green Men: Alien Legacy Re-Visited") who has been interviewed on numerous TV/radio programs, has spoken to several groups about her family's famous encounter, co-produced and co-wrote the "Invasion of Kelly" film, and serves as a key Festival organizer and spokesperson. Our visit onto the property was the first time, in recent memory, that such excursions have been allowed.

THE KELLY-HOPKINSVILLE ENCOUNTER LANDING LOCATION? - Sutton Farm, Kelly, Kentucky. On the night of August 21st, 1955, a rural Kentucky farm house was allegedly besieged by strange beings following the witnessing of a flying saucer, in what would come to be known as "The Kelly-Hopkinsville Encounter." According to witnesses, a group of weird "bug-eyed" creatures exited from the farm's wooded area (where their craft presumably had landed) and began to harass those inside the house (peering through windows and climbing on the roof). Gunfire erupted for hours as the frightened farm folk shot at the curious beings with no apparent effect. At the first opportunity, the family fled the farm to Hopkinsville to report the "invasion" to authorities. The resulting investigation and media frenzy launched the "Goblin Encounter" into the realm of famous unexplained UFO cases. My recent visit to the former Sutton Farm (with some Sutton descendants) was the first time the current property owner has allowed such visits to the site. After exploring the Encounter Site where the house stood, we were then shown an odd, circular formation in a field just beyond the tree line from where the creatures first appeared. It, presumably, has grown in this pattern for all of these decades. Was this an irradiated landing spot? Or an artifact from some old farm activity? This "Goblin Circle" should be explored more. Each August, Kelly celebrates the "Kelly-Hopkinsville Goblin Encounter" in the field right next to this "landing site" during it's "Little Green Men Days" UFO Festival. The festival, this year, was a special event for Kelly as this location was the point of longest duration totality during the Total Eclipse of 2017 - on the anniversary of the famous encounter!
