Zigmund by A Farewell To Hexes
In the quiet Pennine hills of Yorkshire, a story of intrigue and tragedy unfolded in 1980 with the mysterious death of Zigmund Adamski who mysteriously disappeared from his home in Tingley in June 1980, only to be found five days later and lifeless on top of a coal heap in a Todmorden coal yard. His body showed strange burns, and despite being missing for days, his hands and face and clothes were clean and free from coal dust. There were no signs of a struggle. So how did he end up on top of a coal heap and what led to his untimely death?
Police officer Alan Godfrey was one of the first to respond to the discovery of Adamski’s body. Months later in November 1980, Godfrey reported a bizarre encounter with a UFO while investigating a herd of missing cows near Todmorden. Godfrey described seeing a hovering craft and later experienced a time-lapse, leading to speculation that both events were somehow connected to extraterrestrial activity.
Both incidents remain unsolved and are still subjects of intrigue and speculation.
