Ball of light appears in distance, reappears outside bedroom window, then shoots directly up into sky at light speed and disappears.
I was laying in bed watching TV in my room late on Christmas night (but technically the 26th since it was past midnight) and through my closed window blinds I noticed a light shining through that I knew wasn't normally there because my bed faced the window directly. For whatever reason I was compelled to get up to see what it was and when I opened my shades I saw what I can only describe as a very bright ball of white light hovering completely still above a church steeple that peaked out above a line of trees in the distance less than a quarter mile or so away. At first I thought it was a helicopter with a spotlight on, but there were no blinking side lights that you usually see on planes, and it was eerily silent and still. It was almost like a glowing white star it was so bright. After a few seconds (I think?) or so, as I was trying to figure out what I was looking at, the light suddenly disappeared to black in a way that looked like the light got sucked i! nward towards the center until it was extinguished. I started to think "hmmmmmm" when no more than one second after it went dark did the ball of light reappear, now directly above my bedroom window! My heart started racing and I don't know when I shut my TV off but now I'm in the complete dark staring at this thing that's right outside my window and I'm horrified. It almost felt like "it"(the ball of light) noticed me staring at it and came in for a closer look at me. Now I can see the underside of the ball and it has all kinds of colors going on as it just hovers there completely motionless. I wanted to run because I was afraid of it but my body was paralyzed in fear, and tears were coming out of my eyes but I wasn't making a single sound. I don't really know how long I was frozen there staring at it, my guess is probably under a minute, but suddenly the ball just shot straight up into the sky at a million miles an hour. The whole time I was unable to l! ook away from it, so much that I remember my face and hands sq! uished a gainst my window really hard as I was fixated on watching it fade into a tiny twinkle in the night sky then gone. Finally free from the paralysis, I woke up my mom to tell her what I had just seen and she thought I dreamed it... I didn't. I told my grandmother the next day, who had claimed in the past to have encounters with UFOs her whole life, and she told me it was "them". It was by far the craziest experience of my life.
