A witness recalls a reptilian sighting that he had as a boy living in southwest Pennsylvania. The reptilian was a child in a car sitting at a red light. He never mentioned the incident for fear of being ridiculed.

I received the following account:

"Hi, Lon. I hope that all is well with you. Today I was reading your post about the Houston Rat-Man sightings and it triggered a memory from my childhood. Not of a Rat-Man but of a possible reptilian-like humanoid.

This happened back in the mid to late 1970s in my hometown in southwestern PA. I was about 10 years old or so at the time. It was a warm summer day and my mother was taking my brother (who was about 2 or 3 at the time) and me into town to do some shopping. I was sitting in the front passenger seat and my brother was in a car seat in the back. We had the windows down in the car, as did most cars because A/C, at the time, was a rather expensive option.

We were sitting at a red light in the center of town when a car pulled up in the lane next to us. As I recall, it was an upscale type car for the time, along the lines of a Lincoln Mercury. As we were waiting for the light to change, I remember looking over to the car next to us. That car had its windows down as well and had a sunroof (which was also an expensive option at the time) that was open as well, so I had a clear view into that car augmented with the light from the sunroof.

Anyway, I just happened to look over into this car that pulled up next to us. What I saw was a woman that was driving the car and appeared perfectly normal to me. She had a child with her, who was in the back but was leaning over the back of the front seat nuzzling the woman that was driving (like a pet or small child would) and the woman was stroking the child's face. The child appeared to be about 3 or 4 years old, dressed in age-appropriate clothing, except that the child's face/head did not look normal. What I observed was something that looked what I now know as reptilian. The face and head were shaped differently than a normal human child's head. I remember that the skin appeared to be a light green color and some sort of a small comb structure that ran from the front or back of the head down the middle of the scalp. Thinking back, it reminds me of the drawings/photos I've seen of reptilians, only child-sized. I didn't look for very long because I was kind of freaked out by what I was seeing and I didn't want to stare for fear of being caught. My mother never saw what I did as she was concentrating on the traffic light. I almost said something, but then the light changed and the car accelerated ahead of us and we never got close to it again.

As I said, the whole thing really freaked me out. I spent days afterward trying to rationalize what I saw and the best I could come up with at the time was that the child had to have been wearing some sort of a Halloween mask or something. But in the middle of summer? Anyway, I never said anything about this to anyone because, well, who would believe me?

Having picked up paranormal research as a hobby several years ago and knowing the reptilians have the ability to appear as something else to humans, I now believe that what I saw that day was possibly a reptilian juvenile and mother only the juvenile had not quite developed the ability to mask itself to humans like the mother could because she appeared perfectly normal to me. I had pretty much forgotten about this until I read that posting today and I have no other explanation for what I saw back then." Sincerely, TL
