Pitch Black
My brothers and sisters we all used to share a room. One night we decided to put our beds together just to make a really big bed. We thought it would be fun. I was about 12 at the time and the youngest was around 5. I slept at the outer edges of the bed facing my closet. As a kid I always had a lot of trouble falling asleep so I know I was up for a long time, just staring at my room as my eyes had become adjusted to the darkness.
I remember just staring at my closet, just thinking, maybe trying to get myself to fall a sleep...
It was a very brief moment, but I saw something very tall and perhaps hooded hover over me. I couldn't make out a face or anything it was just this darkness staring at me.I freaked out covered my eyes and screamed bloody murder. I actually rolled all the way across the three beds we had put together. I was still screaming and covering my eyes when my parents came into our room.
They asked what had happened, but I couldn't explain to them. I lied and said I had a nightmare, where I had been kidnapped. I just made something up.
I don't think I slept for the rest of that night. I don't know what it was. And ten years later I still remember just how horrified it was. I think to myself, maybe it really was a trick of the light and I just psyched myself out. I don't think that was the case though. Even if it had been I know I would have caught myself immediately...not start screaming at the top of my lungs.
My mom later recounts that she had also felt the presence of something in her own room, tugging and pulling her in bed.
IDK...
Anyone else encountered a shadow person?
Note: Thank you so much for sharing your experiences with me. I find it comforting and fascinating!
