When there's something strange in your neighborhood, give Stan Gordon a call.

A self-proclaimed paranormal investigator of unidentified flying objects, Bigfoot and other unusual sightings, Gordon has been researching odd and peculiar events for 50 years.

"A lot of things are explainable," Gordon said to his audience at Morris Township Community Center in Nineveh, Greene County, where he recently spoke for the fourth time.

For example, on Sept. 19, his 24-hour hotline began ringing with reports of a cone-shaped light in the sky. Gordon did some checking and believes it was related to a sounding rocket launched by NASA from Wallops Island, Va. But the same day he received a report from a couple near Youngwood, Westmoreland County, who claimed to have seen a large black snake on the road break into about eight pieces and then rejoin back into one. Although he searched for similar sightings on the Internet, none was found.

Noted for his study of Kecksburg, where an object supposedly fell from the sky in 1965 and was hastily removed by the military, Gordon turned his research into a DVD he sells on his Web site. And, while he is cautious to avoid saying they are related, he has received sightings of Bigfoot near glowing UFOs.

In 1973 and 1974, there were numerous UFO sightings around the United States, including Pennsylvania. Then reports of a hairy man, occasionally seen looking into windows, surfaced. Impressions of a large, three-toed creature were found. Many of the sightings were along the 100-mile long Chestnut Ridge that runs from Preston County, W.Va., to Indiana, Pa., said Gordon.

He admits there are times when what was thought to be an unknown primate turned out to be a large shaggy dog but insists there are people who remain credible; who have no reason to make up stories. Often they fear being ridiculed so they keep their sightings of giant birds, odd footprints, objects falling from the sky or crop circles to themselves.

Despite his time in the business, Gordon himself has never seen a UFO or Bigfoot.

"I'd like to, but it keeps me skeptical," he said.
