Japanese social media was abuzz this weekend with news of a 13-year-old boy who can allegedly contact UFOs telepathically. The photos of unidentified flying objects that he took last year have attracted a lot of attention from other UFO enthusiasts.

13-year-old Haruya Ido is being referred to as “UFO BOy” by Japanese media, for his alleged ability to attract unidentified flying objects. Toshitaro Yamaguchi, a known paranormal researcher and the man who first shared Haruya’s photos with the world, has described the boy as a classic UFO contactee with the ability to contact UFOs via telepathy.

Haruya Ido has apparently managed to photograph UFOs in different places around Japan on four different occasions just last year. He documented both the place of the sighting and the details of the aircrafts on his website.

“It is reflected on the street lamps at the side of the road, I wonder if it is an Adamski type UFO,” Ido wrote about the UFO he spotted on the Kobe Awaji Naruto Expressway/Awaji service area of ​​Hyogo Prefecture, on March 29, 2017. (1 in the featured photo)

“The cigar-shaped unidentified flying object is shown on the electric wire on which a lot of birds are stopped,” Ido-kun wrote about the elongated flying object he spotted in Nozaki, Oita City, in Osaka Prefecture, on April 21, 2017. (2 in the featured photo)

“I do not know, although the object looks like a triangle,” the boy wrote about the thing he photographed in Kurami Hill Park, Osaka Prefecture, on May 2nd, 2017. (3 in the featured photo)

“A thing like a white hole appeared, I saw seven things moving at high speed and things that make mysterious movements, but it was reflected when I took the photo. I think it is an object but I’m not sure,” the UFO boy wrote about the round shape he photographed on December 30, 2017. (4 in the featured photo)

Mr. Toshitaro Yamaguchi, himself a UFO contactee, claims that while UFO Boys are not unheard of, they have become rare in the last few years. He adds that such people can spot the place and time a UFO will appear using telepathy, and compares the ability to shamanism.

Unfortunately, there’s not a lot of information on 13-year-old Haruya Ido available right now, but judging by the attention this story is currently getting on Japanese social media, I have a feeling we’ll be hearing more about him soon.
