come into the picture (Terrified residents of a quiet rural town in Oregon began to report hearing an unearthly loud shrieking noise piercing out from the surrounding countryside at night that no one could explain. The nerve-wracking sound was described variously as being a shrill squeal, a mechanical scream, metal scraping against metal, an off-kilter siren, or a banshee-like moan. Yes, of course, aliens come into the picture. Other wild theories included that the sound was made by UFOs or that it was the wailing of a ghost or some strange creature like a Sasquatch, or even the portentous trumpeting of angels from Heaven.
