Narrative
Filmed from my Halloween-decorated balcony, thus the reddish-orange glow at times. I saw some blinky lights, started filming, then a few strange crafts, a blinky orb that went dark, etc, finally I stopped filming to put my kid to bed (it's a schoolnight). It is still happening though, watching as several blinky and non-blinky orb things are just meandering across the sky. Williamsburg, VA 10/7/26 2050 submitted by /u/started_from_the_top
