A cluster of blue- white lights descending slowly into forest

From inside my house, after noticing what looked like flashlights in the woods, I walked outside and saw several blue-white lights that seemed to were flickering or pulsating faintly. The woods turned very dark, as did the poetries on either side of my own, darker than usual, and although tmy porch light, as well as the porch lights of both neighbors on either side of my house were turned on, as they usually are throughout the night because we all have properties that right up to edge of the state park forest, the area was somehow darker. That is to say that it was clear to see that the exterior lights of our houses were turned on but somehow did not illuminate anything beyond a few feet. It was then that I saw that the forest started to light up slowly with a soft flickering or pulsing blue- white glow, and stretched to just srijnd the neighbors’ properties also, from what I could see. I turned on my flashlight and I saw the same transparent wave- like forms moving around my yard that I’ve seen many times both during the day and at night for a few years now. I turned off my flashlight and it was then I saw three distinct balls of the same blue- white lights descend very slowly , approximately 20 feet in front of me on the path that starts on the edge of my backyard in the woods. I looked around me and from the three other sides (behind me, and to my right and to my left) I saw a hushed glow of blue- white light that was broken by very dark silhouettes of both talk and short, gangly people with enormous heads and king arms. That’s what they looked like. I say they because each form moved with a distinct gate in separate cadence. The entire time I heard a very heavy vacuum cleaner in the sky. I’ve never heard a machine or vehicle that sounded like this but the thing that I could hear all around me, from the time I looked out my window to when I walked outside and observed the forest, the falling lights and the ‘Montgomery Burns’ looking night-walkers, is to compare it to a high powered, very efficient (probably Japanese) vacuum cleaner. To make sure I wasn’t dreaming I sat down for a minute, looked all around again, lit a cigarette, took two drags, but then put it out as everything seemed to stop when I lit the cigarette so I took that as a cue, stood back up, the lights grew more intense. I took a quick up the hill in the neighborhood to try to get a better view but found none, lingered for roughly five minutes but walked back down to my house for fear of being mistaken for a a prowler by other HOA residents, and woke up on my sofa this morning at 9. I wasn’t outside for more than 30- 40 minutes, including the walk up and through my neighborhood, but it was 4:30 when I looked at my phone right before falling asleep back in my sofa after the walk. This has happened many many times, and I don’t think I’ll report anymore as the first one I submitted was probably discarded, though it took 3 yrs to get the nerve to write it, as this one will probably be too. I don’t blame you if you do as I would do the same, in fact. I would’ve only made it a few sentences before tossing it, there’s much more and much better written things to read. All I can say is this is 100% non- fiction.
