A woman has seen so many UFOs that she's now too scared to leave the house as she fears she may be abducted.
Sacha Christie, 51, saw her first unexplained phenomenon when she was just seven-years-old and since then she's made a further eight sightings.
The stay-at-home mum from Liverpool, Merseyside, has seen lights flying across the sky and even had a joint encounter with some friends while on holiday in Wales in 1997.
Now Sacha suffers from PTSD due to her experiences and is afraid every time she leaves the house as she fears she may get abducted at any time.
What do you think about Sacha's experiences? Let us know in the comments...
Sacha said: "It's very hard to explain my encounters, as it's hard for me to believe what I've seen.
"I've spent my whole life trying to think of other scenarios, of things that it could be, but the only conclusion is that it's other life forms and UFOS.
"Looking at the sky, it scares me, as I don't know what I'm going to see next."
Sacha's sightings have occurred over many years but her most terrifying experience happened when she was on holiday with her ex-partner, Steve, and son, Louie, in the small town of Glyn Ceiriog, Wales.
She said: "I saw Steve outside looking at the sky, I ran out there to see what was wrong. He was pointing at these fluorescent lights in the sky that seemed to be getting bigger the closer they moved towards us.
"As the clouds were so low, the shadows and shape of UFO made it look like bright rippling jellyfish in the sky. It was fascinating.
"That's when something reached out of the hedge and touched Louie's foot."
After fearing for her son's safety, Sacha ushered her friends and family back inside the house, before running back, incredulous, to look at the lights in the sky once again.
She said: "I really couldn't believe it; I was in shock.

"Louie had told me that something had touched his foot and I believed him, but I wanted to look at the lights more, to understand what was going on.
"I stood there for another minute or so, when I suddenly heard something running barefoot in the mud behind me. All of a sudden, it bumped into me as it ran past and my chest exploded.
"Before I even realised it was happening, I was running back to the house in a panic, in complete hysterical blindness, I couldn't see where I was going.
"I just knew I needed to run."
After her terrifying ordeal, the mum of five has spent years searching for answers and clarification on what she saw.
She attends yearly UFO conventions where people can share and talk about their experiences, which she claims have helped her to come to terms with the idea of extra-terrestrial life forms.
She added: "My encounters can happen anywhere; I saw a oblong shape shoot across the sky whilst on the bus home one evening this past February.
"I'm not too sure where most UFOs frequent, but it does sometimes feel like they're always somewhere near me."
