Kate Walker her husband and two young sons, aged seven and six years old were returning home and were in a very isolated area. 

As they approached the top of the hill, Kate and her family noticed a huge orange light, scattered by clouds, to their left and at the far end of Windvistle hill. It seemed to be right next to the road, not very high, and partly hidden by clouds. 

As they got closer to the light, they saw that it was massive, completely static, very low and bright. According to her, it was shaped like a cigar and huge in size, maybe 200-300 feet (60-90 m). 

The next thing they were clearly aware of was a cyclist's head lamp going the other way, which seemed to appear out of nowhere, and continued on the road to Krukern. 

When they arrived home, they noticed an obvious missing time lapse. 

Years later, they were able to remember that the car's engine stalled and the lights went out. The husband tried to start the car, but nothing happened. Everything seemed to slow down. One of his last memories was of seeing a dark figure outside the car, at the window. 

He describes it as " tall, leaning against the window, looking in," and he got the impression that it was a human silhouette, even though he knew it wasn't. 

The next memory for the other brother was that he looked back at the orange light and saw the headlamp approaching them only a few yards away.

Kate Walker her husband and two young sons, aged seven and six years old were returning home and were in a very isolated area. As they came to the top of hill Kate and her family all observed a huge orange light diffused by cloud, to their left hand side and at the far end of Windwhistle Hill. It seemed to be right beside the road, not very high up, and was partially obscured by cloud. As they drove nearer to the light, they could see it was massive and totally static and very low and bright. She describes it as being cigar shaped and vast in size, maybe 200-300 feet. The next thing they were clearly aware of was seeing a cyclist’s headlamp coming the other way, which seemed to appear from nowhere, and continued on the road to Crewkerne. When they arrived home they were aware of an obvious time lapse. Years later they were able to remember that the vehicle engine had died and the headlights had gone off. The husband attempted to start the car but nothing happened. Everything appeared to be in slow motion. One of the son’s last memories was of seeing a dark shape outside the car, beside the window. He describes it as being very tall and bending towards the window looking in, and having the impression that the shape was human, although he knew it wasn’t. The other brother next memory was of looking back at the orange light and seeing the headlamp coming towards them only a few yards away.
