My 12yo daughter and I were on our way home after grabbing a few burgers. As we were driving I saw an odd looking solid, bright reddish light right out in front of us. I only saw it for a few seconds, but something about it looked off. I said to my daughter “can you still see the drone?” cause at that point it would’ve been almost directly above us where she had to lean forward and look up out the top of the windshield to see it. She said she couldn’t see it anymore. I said “that was a cool looking drone…let me know if you see it” and we continued driving. About 5 seconds later I caught a quick glimpse of it out my side window between a break in 2 houses. I turned left onto the next street to get a better look. I drove up about a block and there it was slowly heading in the same direction I was. I stopped my car and rolled the window down. At this point I still thought it was nothing more than some kind of cool drone. But the more I looked the stranger it was. The light wasn’t like a normal drone light. It wasn’t blinking and it looked almost fuzzy or like it was spinning. It was also pretty low and we were pretty close where I would’ve definitely heard the prop noise. As soon as I realized it was something weird it changed direction and started heading off away from me. And just as I was thinking the same thing my daughter says “I think it saw us looking at it and that’s why it’s going away”. And that’s exactly what it felt like. I had stopped right in the middle of the street that was otherwise dark and empty, rolled down my window and it immediately stopped and started heading the opposite direction away from us. That’s when I grabbed my phone and started recording. It’s a terrible video, but what freaked me out was as soon as I started filming the light went out, but I could barely see a black silhouette of a diamond or triangular looking shape. The camera picked it up better than I could actually see it, thankfully. Any ideas on what it might’ve been? I’ve been looking up for many years and this was the first time something has creeped me out like this thing did.
