Dark Figures

[emoking]

This happens alot in my house, and even though it hasn't happened for a while now, I was just thinking about it.

It happens at anytime of the day, or night, no particular time.

There is a dark figure/creature that creeps around my house. Its hard to explain.

Lets say, I'd be walking through the hall and for some reason I turn around and I see this dark figure, move very quickly into the living room, through the doorway (which is further down the hall). And I just carry on and ignore it.

But everytime I see it, I get the feeling its after my attention, like it wants me to follow it, or take notice of it. I don't know.

Then I won't see it for hours, or sometimes days. And it will do the same again, speed across the hallway from one wall to the doorway. But it never does it where there isn't a door, if you know what I mean? Its the weirdest thing.

You have of course eliminated the possibility of it being a shadow from outside.?

You know I had to ask.

Its weird the way you describe the figure since in our old house we used to see something which sounds very similar going up the stairs.

You say yours only uses a door...ours always used the stairs.

I never found out what we were seeing but I am 99% sure it was not a shadow.

Does it scare you?
Maybe ask out next time you see it and see if anything happens.

[emoking]

Yep, I have no idea what it could be really, theres no way it could be a shadow, even if I wanted it to be!

Its strange... its always going into a doorway, nothing else.

But I don't think we will ever know...

It doesn't scare me as such, but I get the feeling its not nice. Like, I will turn round for no reason known to me and see it. And then I get the feeling its up to something and it wants my attention.

I don't feel scared, but when I'm on my own and I see it, I just ignore it, because it sometimes it does make me feel a bit threatened, its so weird.
Next time it happens, and I'm not alone, I'll call out and see what happens.

[emoking]

Done a bit of research, thought you might be interested, especially the second one.

Thanks for the links.

I have heard of the theories that shadow people are evil.
Mmmmmm..any shadows I have seen did not make me feel threatened or scared.
I was just curious.

Maybe its not a good idea to call out then ...eek!!!!

You are right.We will never know what it is you are seeing.
Shame its too fast to film.

[emoking]

It does happen too fast to film, I think, but then again I could always try it.

I don't know enough about this 'thing' to know whether its evil or not, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is tbh.

And I did a bit of research, on the door thing, apparently it could be using it as the doorway between the living and the dead or the spirit world or something...

I will call out next time it happens, when someone else is around and I'll let you know if anything happens.

[cam]

It does not appear at set times does it so filming would be difficult unless next time you see it then put the camera on and hope it appears again.

Does make sense re the doorway.

Hopefully something will happen...not bad though..eek!!

Is interesting since so many people have reported seeing these.

I am not really going with the 'waking dream' theory on this one since you are not sitting around when it happens are you.

[emoking]

Yeah that is true, well I'm sure I'll find a way and even if it doesn't work, its worth a try.

I don't know what will happen.... I dread to think tbh.
I get the feeling either nothing will happen or something big will happen, you know what I mean?

Half the time, I'm walking up the stairs and stop and look back, then I see it.
Or I'm looking back down the hall way.
It just happens, like randomly, I don't expect it.

[cam]

Its always worth a go.

I know what you mean.I think I would prefer nothing to happen.

This is what I mean.You are active and busy not in a dream like state.

I saw that dark shadow cross my kitchen floor did'nt I when I was washing the floor....I was singing and dancing to my music at the time.Hardly the scenario for a waking dream.

[emoking]

Yeah, exactly. I don't sit around and wait for it to happen, it just happens whenever, no particular time.
It usually happens when I'm on my way upstairs for something (does that sound bad?) or on my way through to the kitchen.

what music was it? ;D

[cam]

Maybe when you pass these areas it disturbs it or something.

Of course I do believe there is probably a good rational explantion for these shadows but since I saw one I have to be more open.

I was listening to bon jovi and queen.

[emoking]

Yeah it could be that, but do you think it would happen everytime, I walked past or went upstairs though? Because it doesn't, or if it does, I don't realise it or see anything.
Thats a good point actually, I might have to do a little experiment now.

Bon Jovi I love Bon Jovi.

[cam]

As you said..maybe you dont notice it everytime.

Bon Jovi are brilliant. Great to do housework by.

[emoking]

Yep, true.

I love Bon Jovi, but can't say I've ever done my housework listening to them... I could always try it.

[cam]

I dance around with the mop when I do mine.

[emoking]

How do you dance to Bon Jovi??

[cam]

Easy..grab a mop and go for it.

[emoking]

yeahhh... maybe...

I suppose I'll try that one night, when I get in after a night out.
who knows.

Okaaaaaaaaaaay.... Earlier on this evening I saw a dark figure coming down my stairs.
It was wearing a long black thing with a hood.

Since seeing the figure go past my kitchen door a few years ago I have never seen anything else til tonight.

I have no idea what it was.
A shadow?? Maybe but how ..since all the lights were off except the one in this room and this room is at the back of the house away from the stairs.
All the bedroom curtains and doors are shut as well.

As a sceptic I of course at looking for a natural explanation but so far cant find one except that it could have been a shadow.

[DragonMaster]

A shadow is only made from something....So what was the something that made the shadow..

[cam]

That is true DM and to be honest I have no idea where that shadow came from.It was actually more solid than a shadow.It looked like a person although could not see a face.

[DragonMaster]

i would have the runs if i saw that

[cam]

I was scared but just stared at where I saw it for a second then carried on walking.
I have no idea what it was but hope it was something paranormal as if it was I might see it again..wheeeeeeeeeee.

[DragonMaster]

True,, Can`t ya setup a cam ...just in case this happens again.

[cam]

Not got a cam now.

My daughter is getting a night vision one for her birthday in sept so she will be able to set that up.

[DragonMaster]

cool....would be great having something on camera...

[cam]

Would be if I could be sure of getting something.It was over three years ago that I saw that figure go past my kitchen door and nothing since until the other night.

Can you get a camera that runs non stop for three years.

[DragonMaster]

yeah,,,just get a massive Hard Drive lol....

[cam]

haha....I so read that wrong

Time to depart for a spell in the sun
