Area 2 at the Nevada National Security Site: UAP Sightings, Shadow Figures, and a Call for FBI Review

To the point

Joshua Shelton describes a series of unexplained UAP sightings, shadowy humanoid figures, and other disturbances at Area 2 in the Nevada National Security Site near Area 51, all occurring within a culture of secrecy and ridicule that he says warrants a serious FBI review.

The discussion centers on Area 2 in the Nevada National Security Site near Area 51, a former nuclear testing and storage zone where witnesses report anomalous UAPs and paranormal activity. Joshua Shelton, a security forces supervisor who worked there from 2002 to 2008, recounts a climate of intense security and a culture of secrecy around incidents. His first notable event, October 2002, involved a bright white, self-illuminating sphere hovering over the third fence line, moving along the fence as if on rails before disappearing into the desert, while the response included multiple patrols and a mobile fire team. Another incident described is a large disc-shaped craft flying low over the storage depot with a reddish glow at the front, silent as it past overhead, producing no detectable wreckage or concussion. In 2004, a subsequent alert involved suspicious lights near the desert beyond the fence that followed patrols, and at one point three lights appeared around their position and then rushed toward them, with radios mysteriously failing for about 20–30 minutes. The account also catalogs repeated sightings of shadowy humanoid beings inside the bunker complex, including a silhouette on top of a maintenance building, which many initially mistook for a supervisor. There are reports of more disturbing events, such as a “blackworld” bunker incident where doors were struck from inside and remained guarded by others, suggesting something active inside bunkers that guards could not access. Witnesses cite animal mutilations, and this echoes broader reports documented by Bob Hastings about similar patterns at nuclear facilities. The interview ends with Shelton criticizing the culture of ridicule that suppresses testimony, urging a serious FBI review and a broader cultural shift to acknowledge such phenomena at sensitive installations.
