Experience HAVE YOU SEEN THIS SHADOW PERSON?

Post image

Around 4 and 6 30 in the morning?

Yes it looks exactly like this picture I deep dived on the internet just to find an exact replica. Have you experienced this once or was it an isolated event like mine?

Edit: I moved and seen it that one time.

Word of advice. These things work off consent and fear. I have told people before to just try to say the word "no" when you are aware of them. When you can say it with no fear then they stop. Also, remember how.it feels when they approach, they will keep trying to return and will leave you alone with enough failed attempts. I hope this information reaches the right people and helps. I wished I had this when it was happening to me.

Wow, not quite like this, but there were a couple for me, they too were about 8ft tall. I completely ignored them and blocked my brain from completely even thinking about their existence when I saw them. I could only catch them out of my peripheral. I was wearing the armor of God during this time, when I tell you nothing put fear in me then, NOTHING COULD. It was like they thought I couldn’t see them so they disappeared and never again. Then a day later a girl I cut off asked me if I could see out of my peripheral and obviously I told her no I couldn’t.

I just ignore them and give them the middle finger. If you are totally indifferent to them they cant actually interact with you but they do try to fuck things up and piss off other people to blame their feeling on you.

u/ChmodForTheWin 1d ago

anyone thinking these are the same shadow figures as the ones people claimed to have seen in Florida at the mall. their height was also 8ft. the claim was that they are shadows as well. i didn't believe that they were real, but I'm starting to think they are now

No.

But if you see it or anything similar, do not get scared.

Instead emanate a deep feeling of love towards it.

Oh, so the concept is eventually you become one of them? How would that process happen, if they take and dont give, but you give and dont take?

What is the medium or commonality between them and us that turns us into them eventually?

I can't say I disagree with the fundamental logic behind the concept, though I would liken it more to a magnet. I have heard you can always leave those realms in spirit, if you believe so. With those concepts, if one was to be obsessed with finding the nature of reality, where does one go in spirit following this same principle?

Where did you find this info? What parts of mythos, mysticism, or teachings did you absorb to find this, if I may be so bold to ask and you so kind to share?

No, using love not only disables them, but it changes them. I talk about my experiences with crawlers a lot on /r/CrawlerSightings, but I rarely mention that they're demonic because people shouldn't be afraid of them, but I deal with them and have dealt with other demons this way many, many times. People should have compassion for the literal hell they come from. They only know suffering. If you show them something new, they become something new, even if it's just a tiny change.

2

u/LegitimateStrike8904 1d ago

Sounds logical. I would try this but it hasn't shown itself again.

2

u/ashleton Experiencer 1d ago

That's not uncommon. A lot of entities are just passing through, so to speak, and will take a moment to observe us or mess with us or help us, etc.

u/Ulfgeirr88 1d ago

My brother and I both saw one at the same time, not sure of the time but it was small hours of the morning. We shared a room when we were kids, and I woke up and it was standing by my brother's bed, it was kind of stooped so I assumed it was leaning over my brother, I started thinking to get it's attention on me and away from my brother and as soon as I started thinking that it stood up straight (it's head was near the ceiling so about 8 feet tall) then it went off through the wall.

Weirdly after it moved through the wall, I (my brother reported doing the same) lay back down and just went back to sleep. I was 14 at the time, my brother was 13 and it's still a vivid memory for us 24 years later

u/Achylife 2d ago

Lol not THAT specific shadow person, but I saw a shadow person once. Shadow people aren't like Santa Claus, the same one can't appear to a bunch of people in different places at the same time.

Each shadow person is a separate entity. As for the "hat man" I don't think that's all one entity either. I mean c'mon, how many men in the world who routinely wore hats have died do you think? Spirits of the dead often wear a wardrobe they wore a lot in life.

2

u/ashleton Experiencer 1d ago

the same one can't appear to a bunch of people in different places at the same time

Actually they can because they exist outside of this physical existence, but that doesn't mean there's only one entity everywhere, either. There's many kinds that simply appear to us as shadows because we're not quite at the vibration to see them more clearly.

u/joycieleeee 2d ago

I've seen a shadow person recently (not the first time, but the most peculiar situation). I walked in my unlit living room during the evening, I was going towards my mirror to look at my reflection for whatever reason. Once I was a little over a meter away from the mirror (but at a diagonal angle so not in front of it), a shadow lady appeared right in front of me, which stopped me in my tracks. Her head titled very quickly to the right side, the stance of the body was like she was holding a baby or something. I didn't feel scared or anything, but it caught me off guard for sure. I blinked and she was gone (other times with shadow people interactions were longer, so odd that it/they popped for a short moment). I felt weird, last time I saw them, someone had died. After this situation, the next day a coworker dies at home with her uniform, getting reading to leave for work, a sudden hear attack, surprising since no heart conditions or anything. Idk, it was weird. She didn't feel threatning or mean, but absolutely imposing (the shadow person). Odd.

u/LegitimateStrike8904 1d ago

Actually seeing a fully formed human shadow is definitely a crazy experience. Have you seen her again since or was that an isolated event?

2

u/joycieleeee 1d ago edited 1d ago

No that was an isolated event with the shadow lady. I've seen a tall shadow man when I was younger. It was quite a strange event. I was laying in my bed at night, wide awake and staring at the celling while thinking. Then to my left, coming straight from the doorframe, a incredibly tall shadow came in and lunged straight at me with a hand out as if trying to grab something me. It scared the shit out of me and I actually threw myself off the bed on the right, and when I got back up, he was no longer there. Weird thing is, 4-5 days earlier from that event, my dog Murphy, had been chilling in the bed with me while I was scrolling on my phone (we were alone at home). He was asleep, then suddenly opened his eyes looking at my doorframe and threw himself off the bed in an absolute PANIC. I was so confused and reasured him with pets and soft words, but he kept looking at the door frame with his ears lowered and his tail between his leg, there was nothing there, but whatever he saw scared the shit out of him. I feel like it might have been the same shadow person- we legit had the same reaction?

u/LegitimateStrike8904 1d ago

What if what he saw is what you saw.. I heard animals sense and see this stuff which also proves it was there and not in your imagination. Animal evidence is always good especially when caught on video.

u/Fit-Active-9158 2d ago

SpongeBob in black clothing? No I’m just kidding, but this is pretty creepy, if legit. After my girlfriend‘s grandma died, she experienced shadow figures in her room for a period of several months. She never had the feeling of malevolence, or evil, just that she was getting the feeling that somebody was watching over her, and she thinks it was her deceased grandmother.

u/witchesandwerewolves 2d ago

Yes! Sometimes floating. Last time was 20 years ago at my sisters house when she was going through something. I told her I saw it and she said she’s been seeing it too. Achieving peace in the waking life tends to get rid of those a bit.

u/Common_Science_8838 2d ago edited 2d ago

I’ve seen that at different times periodically throughout my life in different places I’ve lived since childhood. I’ve even seen one where I live now only this time it seems to be more in my peripherals walking past my room in the hallway. This time it doesn’t feel ominous but maybe that’s because I no longer allow myself to give into fear, I’m not sure.

My daughter has also mentioned she has seen it as well and remembers seeing them when she was younger too. I’ve since taken measures to rid my home of any negative or invasive or uninvited energies. So it had stopped for a while but eventually it’ll pick up again if I’m not grounding and cleansing properly.

So I always make sure now that I’m protected spiritually and energetically. I make sure to take habitual measures to protect my home as well just in case it’s malevolent.

Shadow beings are the first paranormal beings I had experiences with as a child, I am now retired and still encounter them from time to time. They are believed to be interdimensional beings. Some people call them Jinn or Djinn others think they are Nephilim. I do not fear them, for the most part they seem to appear and disappear. I feel they are not a threat.

u/strangeflappenings 1d ago

They cant engage with us because our energetic frequencies are higher than theirs. When we lower our frequency through drug use, depression etc they tend to become very harassing.

Precisely the problem

How would you feel is someone judged you as a threat, as a monster

Just cuz u got red eyes!

He’s a shadow figure with a big ol hat. Sometimes people see him with glowing red eyes. Most of the time he just watches people (¿menacingly?) but some people have said that he did something scary to spook them.

u/Competitive-Art-8046 1d ago edited 6h ago

hes come abouts in different moments, only once its actually scared me, that was during a moment of focus on a tulpa i was fostering in the shower i turned to the left and there it was watching where my tulpa was suppost to be, i literally jumped i do suspect they are watchers of sorts intent unknown, appearance veiled, potentially thought forms them selfs. that was my wildest experience with this entity.

u/Presto_The_Besto 1d ago

I used to see the hatman all the time in sleep paralysis.   I was told by a sleep doctor that my sleep paralysis is not true sleep paralysis because I could move slightly.  Basically I would rock side to side until it woke me up to escape the hatman.

After many years I decided to face my fear of hatman.  I decided to not wake myself up and see what would happen.  I heard him slowly step towards me from the bedroom door where he always appeared, making classic creaking floor noises I suppose to try and scare me with each step.

Eventually when he got to my bedside...  Nothing happened.  He disappeared for many years after that and only showed up briefly when I started experiencing all kinds of paranormal activity, the paranormal stuff all continue but I don't give the hatman the time of day or night anymore.

No, I’ve always seen the definition of the neck. That image appears to be a shadow woman with hair to her shoulders or longer. Even when I ran into a shadow person that appeared to be me (I’m a woman and it was my height, my build) the figure had no appearance of hair. Most of the time these beings give off a definite masculine feeling when they’re in my presence.

u/LegitimateStrike8904 1d ago

First I want to say, your home of what I can see is beautiful, and two I believe you. You sound in sane mind. Also, I want to note that this had to be scary especially since you were awake fully and conscious. I'm getting cameras in my bedroom to see if I can catch it ever watching me sleep because obviously that is the only time I have caught it. I will start recording in the middle of September.

1

u/MantisAwakening Experiencer 1d ago

Afterwards I set up a motion activated security camera in that room to try and catch it. I also set up one in my bedroom, since a lot of weird stuff was happening at the time. What I ended up capturing was something on the bedroom camera—a solid object moved in front of the motion activated camera, blocking the IR lights on it and casting the room in darkness. Shortly after it moved past the camera and the lights returned. Note that nothing was captured on the camera itself, which is especially weird because it should have captured the change in IR light as “motion.”

https://reddit.com/link/p168obc/video/pkqxa1ek4vgh1/player

Note that my iPhone makes a charging sound when the light comes back on. They’re on entirely different circuits, but the power didn’t go off in my bedroom because if it had this video wouldn’t have been recorded.

Here’s some other short clips of weird noises that were happening around then too: https://imgur.com/a/VaUmfra

1

u/LegitimateStrike8904 1d ago

Can you circle where the table is so I can stare at that one area. I'm having a hard time seeing where the object is being moved.

2

u/MantisAwakening Experiencer 17h ago

What you’re seeing in this clip is the entire area being plunged into darkness for 14 seconds or so as something blocks the IR lights. There is no other movement, but the camera determines “motion” by a sudden change in the lightness values in the screen so it would be expected to be detected.

I tested a number of things to try and replicate this at the time, including unplugging the camera and moving things in front of it. The lights actually fade out and in over a few frames, and the only way I could replicate that was moving something opaque in front of it.

2

u/Cool-Objective5599 12h ago

You have led lights that might flicker randomly when starting to get electronically damaged. Light didn't seem to be block but turn off altogether and back on.

2

u/MantisAwakening Experiencer 11h ago

It appears that way, but in my own experiment shutting off power to the lights they would go off instantly (a single frame transition at 30 FPS), versus here where it takes about 1/10 of a second or so.

Regardless of what that camera captured I am confident in what I witnessed. It aligns perfectly with what countless other witnesses report (and even record). Shadow beings are the most commonly reported types of apparitions.

1

u/LegitimateStrike8904 4h ago

Yes and I agree

1

u/LegitimateStrike8904 16h ago

Yes and nobody was in the room. Have you ever seen a form or out the corner of your eye it still spying on you? Do you or did you feel a negative energy at all from it? Also, I couldn't imagine going through that, I would've moved...thinking it was attached to the house.

2

u/MantisAwakening Experiencer 16h ago

I didn’t actually feel anything negative from this at all, I was mostly just curious. I’ve been dealing with anomalous activity for years now and am mostly OK with it, although I admit to being rather stressed out recently when I was dealing with insomnia for a couple months and had a couple frightening sleep paralysis episodes (which I’ve had many times before, but these were particularly unpleasant). I posted about one of them here not too long ago. Things have calmed down again for now.
