On 7th August 1994, at 3 a.m., something strange fell from the sky over Oakville, Washington. It wasn't rain. It wasn't hail. It was gelatinous blobs—translucent, jelly-like masses the size of rice grains that covered twenty square miles.

Within hours, people across town were violently ill. Animals died. Officer David Lacey could barely breathe. Dotty Hearn collapsed and was hospitalised for three days.

Scientists tested the blobs and found human white blood cells and bacteria from the digestive tract. Microbiologist Mike McDowell concluded they were man-made "carrier systems."

Then all the samples vanished.

Over three weeks, the blobs fell six times. Witnesses reported military helicopters. Men from Fort Hood questioned residents. Anonymous letters claimed government experiments.

Then, in April 2025—31 years later—it happened again in nearby Rochester.

Tonight on Mysteries at Bedtime, we examine one of America's most baffling unsolved phenomena.
