Things that go bump

Did you see that?

It’s late at night, and your room is dark. You’re exhausted, but you can’t sleep. You glance over into the corner. The hairs on your arms stand, you can sense it. There is something standing in your room, looking at you, studying you. Your rational mind tries to kick in, and with a few blinks you look back and the dark figure is gone. You even check to see if you can explain it by the weird pile of clothes or a jacket on a chair.

Have you ever seen these shadows in the daytime? Unexplained flashes of dark mist that you swear you saw but you know you couldn't have, again your not with anyone. It was so fast. It was merely a flicker, but you still feel that it was there. That feeling rushes over you and in a flash, it's like it never happened.

So is it your mind playing tricks? The simple answer is no. It was not an overactive imagination the physical symptoms wouldn't accompany the fleeting vision. Your entire being knows you saw it, the raised heart rate, the thoughts, the attempts at the validation of it not being there. Have you ever caught yourself staring to the open space to see if you can see it again?What you have seen was a shadow person.

According to JAMA Neurology publications Computational Psychiatry: Biology of Hallucinations: The Shadow people are defined as the experience of perceiving patches of shadow in one's peripheral or direct line of sight that appear and behave as living, autonomous beings. Due to the unique behavior of these hallucinations they can be considered as a distinct sub-type of an autonomous entity.

Seemingly since the dawn of civilization, people have had encounters with shadow people, spanning all manner of countries, cultures, and societies. It is a global phenomenon, and encounters seem to be growing with each passing year.

I guess we are never really…..alone
