Following some inner impulse, Manuel Rodriguez Ramirez, his wife and two young sons drove to a secluded road where previously reported mysterious phenomena. 

As they were driving their car, the Seat suddenly stopped for no apparent reason. The car wouldn't start, so all the passengers got out. before they did, they applied the emergency brake. They also placed two large rocks behind the rear wheels, as the car was on a slope.

Suddenly, while they were discussing the situation among themselves, a strange figure appeared in the middle of the road to their left. The figure was completely dressed in black and slowly moved towards the witnesses, simultaneously asking them, " Where are you going?"

The terrified bystanders could only stammer that they were heading for the nearest mountain. 

The figure easily exceeded 2 meters in height, gigantic in size. He remained motionless and stood looking at the witnesses. When he spoke, he was speaking in pure Spanish. 

At this point, all the witnesses began to experience an unusual sense of fear as their minds were being examined. The family walked away and passed very close to the huge humanoid, seconds later, when they looked back, the strange figure had already disappeared. 

Still apprehensive, they then returned to their car and this time were able to start it without any problems. As they sat in the car, they all noticed a very bright light coming down from a nearby mountain and apparently landing on a field. They got out of the car again and looked at the light. As they looked, the light suddenly went out. 

A few minutes later, as they were standing there, they saw their car suddenly roll towards them. Apparently, the car was moving by itself, but in a very strange way, as if it was floating above the ground. Stunned, they saw the car suddenly stop. Then the family hesitantly got back in the car. 

As they were leaving, they met a local friend, Juan Pino, who was also in the area and saw a suspicious very bright light hovering over the area.

Summary:  Obeying some kind of inner urge Manuel Rodriguez Ramirez, his wife and two young sons drove to an isolated road where mysterious phenomena had been reported before. As they drove along, their car, a Seat suddenly stopped without any apparent cause. The car would not start so all the occupants exited the vehicle; before they did they applied the emergency brakes to it. They also placed two large rocks behind the rear tires since the car was in a kind of incline. Suddenly while they discussed the situation among themselves a strange figure appeared to their left on the middle of the road. The figure was totally dressed in black, and moved slowly towards the witnesses at the same time asking them “Where are you going? Terrified the witnesses could only stammer that they were headed to the nearby mountain. The figure was easily over 2 meters in height, gigantic in proportions. He remained quite and standing still, staring at the witnesses. When he spoke he did so in clear Spanish. At this point all the witnesses began experiencing an uncommon sense of fear, as their minds appeared being probed. The family began walking away and passed very near the huge humanoid, seconds later as they looked back the bizarre figure had already vanished. Still afraid they then walked back to their vehicle and this time they were able to start it without any problems. While sitting in the vehicle they all noticed a very bright light descend from the nearby mountain and apparently land on a field. They again exited the vehicle and began looking at the landed light. As they looked the light suddenly turned off. A few minutes later as they stood there they saw their vehicle suddenly come rolling towards them. Apparently the vehicle was moving on its own accord, but in a very strange way, as if floating just above the ground. Stunned they watched the vehicle suddenly stop on its tracks. The family then hesitantly entered their vehicle again. As they drove away they encountered a local friend, Juan Pino, who had also been in the area and had seen a suspicious very bright light hovering over the area.
