The man was in bed, about to fall asleep, when he noticed that the doorway had become "darker". 

He saw three figures pass through the closed door and approach his bed. The figures ranged from 61/2 to 8 feet (1.9-24 m) in height, were dull black in color, and had indistinct facial features. 

One figure placed a hand on the witness's leg, causing him to go numb to the waist, while another figure tried to encase the witness's leg in a silver glowing "sugar bag". When the man shouted, someone's mouth and right arm went numb.

The receptionist managed to throw his cigarettes, lighter, and ashes at his wife, who stirred and turned on the light in the room. 

Meanwhile, the creatures released the man, removed the bag, and one by one stepped over his wife's bed and out of the window, which flashed orange.

 Over a period of time, family members reported various other sightings. Several times, a ping-pong-sized ball of light was observed moving around the same room.
