wanted to share a peculiar experience my wife and I had recently while driving to Leeton on July 12 of 2019.
As we were on our way, we noticed a single bright light seemingly “chasing” us for many kilometers. Initially, we mistook it for a motorbike, but as it persisted, we began to feel increasingly uneasy. The speed at which it traveled, its tendency to disappear and reappear – it was all quite unnerving. At one point, it was right behind us, as if about to overtake, then suddenly vanished. I accelerated, only for it to reappear behind us seemingly out of nowhere. The last time it vanished, it reappeared from our right-hand side, shining directly at us, before disappearing for good.
This perplexing experience lasted for over 10 minutes. Normally, I’m a practical guy, always seeking a logical explanation. Initially, I thought it might be kids on trail bikes. However, on our return journey to Sydney, we retraced the same route during daylight hours to investigate. To our surprise, both sides of the road were fenced off for the entire stretch where the light had pursued us – ruling out the possibility of trail bikes.
The following weekend, while dining with friends and family, we shared our “Leeton Lights” story. Everyone was intrigued and promptly began searching online for “Leeton UFO” stories, but to no avail.
Then, tonight, I received a call from my niece, who had heard our story at the gathering and is a fan of your podcast. She urged me to listen to a particular episode, and upon doing so, my wife and I were astounded. The encounter described on the podcast mirrored our own experience, right down to the mention of Leeton. It was a surreal moment for us both.
