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.
