The late musician Johnny Cash spent a lot of time in Jamaica. In 1974 he bought the historic house Cinnamon Hill and owned it the rest of his life.
In the 2003 book, Cash: The Autobiography by Johnny Cash (with Patrick Carr), he wrote about how Cinnamon Hill was haunted:
“There are ghosts, I think. Many of the mysteries reported by guests and visitors to our house, and many that we ourselves experience can be explained… But there have been incidents that defy conventional wisdom. Mysterious figures have been seen - a woman a young boy - at times by various people over the years.” He went on to say, “We've never had any trouble with these souls. They mean us no harm, I believe, and we're certainly not scared of them; they just don't produce that kind of emotion.”
Cash believed, but he had another paranormal
experience that didn’t make it into the book. Dick Kleiner, a syndicated gossip
columnist reported on Johnny Cash’s report of seeing an unidentified flying
object.
Johnny Cash sees UFO in Jamaica

Cash Tells Of UFO EncounterHollywood - Add to your file of stars who have seen UFOs the name of Johnny Cash. Here is his story: I was on the island of Jamaica and there were a bunch of us outside, it was such a nice night. Somebody said they saw a shooting star, so I was looking up at the sky. And I saw this object whiz by. It made a strange noise - a noise I really can't describe - and I think the shape was oval. And the color was new to me, purple or rose, I'm just not sure. It was gone before I could even point it out to my friends.
I don't know what it was. All I know is that I saw it, and it was unearthly."
Coincidence, Synchronicity… or Fate?
Consider the similarities between country music’s man in black and a famous UFO witness from the 1980 Cash-Landrum incident. The witnesses’ names are similar: Betty J. Cash, John R. Cash.
Johnny Cash was born in Kingsland, Arkansas,
on February 26, 1932.
Betty J Cash was born in Birmingham, Alabama on
February 10, 1929.
Johnny Cash played country music on stage.
Betty Cash played country music on her car radio.
Time and Location:
The
story of Johnny Cash’s UFO sighting appeared in Victoria Advocate on
Feb. 22, 1981. The story of Betty Cash’s UFO sighting was
first told to John Schuessler on Feb. 22, 1981.
When
the Cash-Landrum UFO flew away, it was headed towards the Gulf of Mexico. Johnny
Cash’s UFO was in Jamaica, by the Caribbean Sea, SE of the Gulf of Mexico.
The date of Johnny Cash’s sighting was not stated, and it’s possible it had happened late the year before. Is it possible it was on the same night as Betty Cash’s UFO, the night of Dec. 29, 1980?
In honor of Halloween, here’s the closest thing to a Johnny Cash UFO song, the man in black performing Ghost Riders in the Sky onstage in 1987.
In memory of Johnny Cash, 1932 – 2003.
