I have had three strange events unfold in my life, all of which I know actually happened and couldn't have been real. (That statement is representative of cognitive dissonance.) All three events are just as vivid and as real as my other memories and are confirmed for me in different ways, but none of them could have been real from anything I've ever seen or known. These events happened in 2001, 2002 and 2007, when I was eight, nine and fourteen. All in summer or early fall. The latter two are definitely related, but the former is just plain creepy and still comes back every once in a while. I'll go in chronological order and put the events in seperate threads.

I was out around 2:00 AM with three friends (yes, at age eight) and while we were passing the highschool near my house we became aware of an unusual lack of traffic on the main road and a strange pulsing sensation and low, pulsing humm to the northeast. We followed it for a while, and when we got close the source when shooting off to the northwest. (Near as we could tell from the pulse, we never saw the source.) The pulse stopped about ten blocks away, and stayed for a while before dying off. We followed to where it was, now in complete silence and quite aware that we didn't hear any traffic or see any people around, which is quite alarming in a city, even a small one like Everett. When we reached the location where the pulse went dead there was one boy there, wearing shorts and a T-shirt. I went to talk to him, noticing the shirt and shorts were identical to mine and he also had the same blonde hair. When he looked at me, I suddenly realised he looked exactly like me, except I couldn't see his eyes. This was a street with lights spaced regularly, and I couldn't see his eyes. He ran away from us when we made eye contact (well, kindof eye contact) moving more than twice the speed I could run.

I talked to my friends about him, trying to get somebody to tell me I was hallucinating or something, but they all saw the same thing, right down to the lack of visible eyes. We all went home, and tried to forget it. I kept hearing the pulse whenever I tried to sleep, I could swear he was nearby. I had to keep a combat knife in my hands to sleep for the next week.

And for the most part, we forgot about it after that. But every once in a while, I'll be out at night and feel that pulse again. I don't think I'll ever follow it again, but a few times I've seen him off in the distance. He still looks exactly like he did on that night, and he still creeps me out. I always go straight home and sleep with a sword for a day or two.

Wierdness:
  • Sudden lack of life in a city.
  • Strange pulse that can be heard and felt.
  • Pulse moves when we get close to it.
  • Strange child that looked like me, but without eyes.
  • Pulse comes back when I go to bed, and gets closer as I try to sleep. Retrieving a knife reduced this somewhat, and made me more comfortable sleeping with this thing nearby.
  • Recurring, happens every couple months.
  • Every time this happens, I lose a lot of time. The first time it happened, what felt like ten minutes was over an hour. The other times are much shorter. This only happens when I actually see him.

This is strange and would be scary for anyone.  How many years has this been happening?  You should take a camera with you and try to get a picture of this person or whatever it is.

The only camera I have is on my iPod. And since this is always starts between 2:00 and 3:00 AM and it is always at a distance, it's not likely the light would be good enough to get a picture with any discernable detail. As for how long, that was in the original post. It started in 2001. It's been going on for eleven years. And it's mostly scary when unarmed. As soon as I get home and get my sword, I'm fine.

Also, the humm is an electrical current waxing and waning. You can hear the same humm around power lines. The issue is it moves, and seems to be centered above him. (Well above him, actually.)

Honestly. The human race is stupid. There are many more things tht cant b explained! DX Maybe the boy was either supernatural or just like us.. I wish scientist would strech out to things like these..

It seems unlikely a supernatural being would have an electrical current running above it. Not impossible, but unlikely.

Did you or not hear the noise other times?

Maybe it is in your head.

Hi and thanks for sharing your experiences. I've heard of white skinned cryptids which can cause hallucinations and have been seen to have no eyes. Ghoul-like entities perhaps. One was in Canada and I forget the other..

Was the clothing white by any chance?

Same clothing I wore, a white tank top and yellow shorts. (I was nine. I didn't buy the clothes.) Normal skin tone, same as me. Same blonde hair, same physique. Just the eye sockets were too dark to see his eyes despite the street lights, which was creepy. And his almost impossibly high speed freaked me out.

The pulsing humm? I know the sound and I can tell it anywhere. Same goes for anybody who has ever walked under power lines. The humm of an electrical current is pretty distinctive, and it fluctuating in volume would mean the current was fluctuating in power. The only strange part in these instances (wether I see him or not) is the lack of an apparant point of origin. It sounded like it was coming out of thin air a couple hundred metres above him.

Oddly, it always seems to stop at some point before I see him. It may or may not start again, but it does stop. Maybe the pulse stopping has something to do with his appearance?

Instead of repeating yourself can you answer the question?

I see you are new and have few posts which tells me you are probably posting sincerely to understand the weird occurrence. The hum sound can be picking up on some kind of energy field that you can connect with. Your belief in the knife is what keeps it from happening on a subconscious level I would guess. These things can happen,  how or why is yet to be explained. I know your confusion and fear when it happens.

I believe it was a form of doppleganger but then I don't know what a doppleganger really is!
It's a real experience but the reason, the what is it , the how and the why of the experiences is still unknown as far as I know.

Several different kinds of simular psychic experiences may not even really be the same in nature but created the doppleganger legends. Years ago I was trying to find the some answers because it was so weird and something you never really want to discuss at all. UM is a wonderful way to get insights anonymously on all kinds of subjects, welcome!  

Seems to me, people who have an extra sense to something are able to see them just like "ghosts".
Ghosts are like the doppleganger legends in a way. Who really knows if they are all the same phenomena but in myths they are called demons, poltergheists, ghosts, shapeshifters, witches  etc.  

All I can say I KNOW is that the cause is some kind of manipulation of an energy field of some kind.
Who or what causes the manipulation, God only knows.
Physics and precise study isn't there  for us to know the answer.
So people who have experiences can only speculate with their own beliefs which only creates more myths. Some people are more sensitive to this energy field and even the time and place has something to do with the strength of the occurrances.  The sensitivity itself varies person to person.  

I will share the experience that led me to do a little research doppleganger myths trying to make sense of it.

It happened to me when my uncle came back to the states on leave from Vietnam.  Eight friends and family were there when he drove in the drive way and then we were just talking to each other and making plans for a going away party in a few days. My mother walked up behind me, then to my left side and was just standing there smiling weirdly and not saying anything for about 10 minutes which wasn't like her.  When I tried to elbow her to answer Marie, I didn't feel her  and she vanished!  I looked towards our house on the same street.  Marie a Navy friend asked me where my mom went and I pointed that  my mother was mowing the lawn at our house up the street.   I was in shock after everyone who wasn't family left, I discovered that only my grandfather, myself and Marie had seen her and talked "at her".

I went home and asked my mother if she got off the mower and then went back and she said no. She didn't have enough time to do that, but I still had to ask.... She said she wanted to finish the lawn but she  really really wanted to be there SO much that in a few seconds she had more or less what is now called a remote viewing event .... part of her was there but she was really on the mower! I asked why she didn't come over and she said she wasn't dressed properly. She was wearing a housedress when we saw her not her yard work clothes which she was really wearing.

She said she remembered being in both places!  She said she could see the people clearly but could not hear them very well. She only heard parts of the conversation but it was only what Marie,  my granddad, and I  said.  Those were the other two people who SAW "her" there. She then  told me what we said to each other! My mother said she didn't know how she could do it but it wasn't the first time! She called it the gift of "daydreaming reality" but she can't always do it when she'd like. She told me that since we could see her that meant we also had a gift. (it sounded more like it could be a curse to me and mom was a witch or something like that!)  

My grandad and I never viewed my mother in the same way after that. His comment to me was "don't become like your mother, she has a "gift" but doesn't always use it for good. She would have been burnt at the stake if it were a different day and age"

My very God loving and spiritual grandmother once again consoled me...  "Ours is not to know how God works the mysteries of creation but only to have faith, praise  and do what He says which will eventually bring love and goodness into the world"  She didn't see my mother that day but told me she saw her do things like that before and thought they were demonic and was afraid for her soul since you aren't supposed to those certain gifts unless God Himself tells you to use them!   I guess  my mother always had a sixth sense and a temper to get her way one way or another and really weird things always seemed to happen around her.

Because of this I believe there are some people that have an ability and can be like a "ghost" even though they are alive.
They somehow manipulate some kind of energy field usually subconsciously, I guess.
Are they evil or demonic?...I don't know but I don't really think so.
It makes you look at religious miracles and myths in a different way when you witness something bizarre like this. Some saints and prophets are said to be able to do this but I know you don't need to be one!
Why doesn't my uncle have the "gift"?  
What is the "gift" really and why aren't people who have it able to control it better?  
In my mother's case, why does she pay physically ?
(It appears to take something from her bones and joints when she is successful in using her "gift")

Those are some of the questions I've asked myself about the doppleganger effect ALL my life.

I'll  probably never find all the answers but I hope this helps others trying to reconcile their CONFUSION. I hope serious researchers discover its mystery some day.

I feel for you, you're not alone in seeking answers to this old and very odd mystery. Maybe the lack of eyes in your double was because you weren't able to project your consciousness into it? The field of energy of humming pulse is something that manifests in many different phenomenons. I guess it's a working form of quantum physics that we don't understand yet. Since you said you still experience it this makes me think it is coming from YOU not someone or something projecting as you so don't be afraid of it.

Independent scientists don't get enough funding especially with weird things and the government defense research in these kind of areas don't make it to the public. Humans race may be stupid in some ways but not as much as it seems.  I know the US had "psychic" projects as well as drug research linking abilities in the early 70's. I'm sure they learned about a lot more things than just "remote viewing". If they didn't then they are studid!

Who said it stopped happening when I had a knife it stopped? I'm just more comfortable with these things when I have a weapon I know how to use. As for the hum, I know what it is. It's an electrical current. I just don't ever see the source.

Well, yes. It is definitionally a doppleganger.

The odds of this being in any way supernatural are pretty low. Given the direction the sound is coming from, it cannot possibly be coming from him. It's following above him and not perfectly. That means whatever it is that is creating the sound is a seperate entity, and I don't think there's much chance of an audible electrical current in a supernatural being.

Quote

All I can say I KNOW is that the cause is some kind of manipulation of an energy field of some kind.

Really? It's electricity. It's just electricity. It doesn't explain the doppleganger.

Quote

Who or what causes the manipulation, God only knows.

Some kind of ship, maybe? People hear electrical hums around black triangles, just because I never saw one doesn't mean it's not a possibility. Certainly more likely than mystical energy, given that there's a physical being on the ground.

Quote

Physics and precise study isn't there  for us to know the answer.

Mostly because there isn't a real application for it. What investor is going to put money into researching strange humming sounds and people that look like other people? Yes, there's more than that here. But the problem is that the rest is not concrete and investors don't go for "maybe."

Quote

So people who have experiences can only speculate with their own beliefs which only creates more myths. Some people are more sensitive to this energy field and even the time and place has something to do with the strength of the occurrances.  The sensitivity itself varies person to person.

There's something out there that looks more or less like me, moves around at night and is accompanied by something I can't spot (probably not invisible, probably just dark and thus hard to spot backdropped against the sky) that flies way the hell above him and has an audible electrical current. It appears to be looking for something (or someone), and ran away the one time I got close. Your "explanation" makes no sense in this context. A mystical energy field might explain the electrical humm, but not the physical being. And the physical being is not emmiting the field because the sound is coming from well above him.

Maybe he's some kind creature that mimics the appearance of locals to avoid attention, and chose me because I was the first one it saw. That would explain the eyes, because it's likely it wouldn't be able to change them and have them still fill its intended purpose. Maybe an alien, which would explain the humm if a ship is accompanying him. And as an intelligent creature, it would know to operate in areas with little activity (which I personally prefer, because they're quiet) and it would likely be assigned to a single region if it really is looking for something. (I live in Lake Stevens now, but it's not far from Everett.) Since it operates at night (makes sense, because you can't tell its eyes are different in the dark) and I like to be out at night (because again, it's quiet) it's not unlikely for us to run into eachother from time to time. I hear the sound every couple times I'm out during that period, but I only see him a couple times a year. Usually at a distance, and always fairly briefly. I doubt there's anything special to do with me, except for being the one it copied. If it has a ship following it, it's not unlikely the reason I often hear the humm again for a while after I get home is it just moved closer to my house in its search. (If it even is a search. It might be a patrol, and it just looks like a search from my perspective.) This actually covers everything, and without involving the supernatural.

It's also possible that whatever he's doing, whatever is making that humm is following him.

Already, it's obvious this is not related. You didn't notice any visible differences until you touched her, and she wasn't solid. In my case, the eyes weren't different and he was solid. And I know he was solid because of the first time, where I touched him to get his attention before we made eye contact and he took off. Even without that, the footsteps were a giveaway. Your encounter was with an illusion, mine was with a physical being.

I went home and asked my mother if she got off the mower and then went back and she said no. She didn't have enough time to do that, but I still had to ask....

Very, very obvious that this is completely different. What I saw was something else that looked like me. It was not me, seeing from a different viewpoint. I understand remote viewing and I've seen it happen. I know a few basic rules for it. It only works when people you are connected to are present at the location, it cannot be triggered conciously, cannot percieve anything not percieved by those connected to you and only they will see you there. I knew two girls this happened to all the time. It is not the same.

My mother said she didn't know how she could do it but it wasn't the first time! She called it the gift of "daydreaming reality" but she can't always do it when she'd like. She told me that since we could see her that meant we also had a gift. (it sounded more like it could be a curse to me and mom was a witch or something like that!)

Basic remote viewing event. It's a form of telepathy. You are connected to her on a personal level. She wants to be there so she is experiencing it through you. The perception is fuzzy and mostly illusory most of the time, but maybe with multiple people (thus multiple viewpoints for her subconcious to work with) it works better.

My grandad and I never viewed my mother in the same way after that. His comment to me was "don't become like your mother, she has a "gift" but doesn't always use it for good. She would have been burnt at the stake if it were a different day and age"

Wow. Real charmer, that one.

Because of this I believe there are some people that have an ability and can be like a "ghost" even though they are alive.

Remote viewing works through the minds of others. The "ghost" is an illusion, and doesn't always show. I'm guessing it was her intent to be there, rather than to just see it, that made the illusion appear. It's entirely in your mind, and will dissapear if you want it to be gone.

What is the "gift" really and why aren't people who have it able to control it better?  
In my mother's case, why does she pay physically ?
(It appears to take something from her bones and joints when she is successful in using her "gift")

Yeah, pain and discomfort are normal. Remote viewing messes with your nervous system. It doesn't do any actual damage, though.

Those are some of the questions I've asked myself about the doppleganger effect ALL my life.

I'll probably never find all the answers but I hope this helps others trying to reconcile their CONFUSION. I hope serious researchers discover its mystery some day.

If you can't tell the difference between dopplegangers and remote viewing, you'll only succeed in confusing people more.

I feel for you, you're not alone in seeking answers to this old and very odd mystery. Maybe the lack of eyes in your double was because you weren't able to project your consciousness into it? The field of energy of humming pulse is something that manifests in many different phenomenons. I guess it's a working form of quantum physics that we don't understand yet. Since you said you still experience it this makes me think it is coming from YOU not someone or something projecting as you so don't be afraid of it.

This is clearly not the case. Remote viewing does not create physical beings, the humm is electric and comes from way above him, and quantum physics has nothing to do with electric currents. In fact, quantum physics has nothing to do with most things it's brought up in. It's not just some meaningless cover term for "scientastical stuff I don't understand." It's the theoretical physics of subatomic particles and the means through which they interact.

Meanwhile, electric currents do have a lot to do with "ghosts." Electric fields can interfere with a few sections of the brain, making you feel uneasy and making you percieve the presence of another person. Why? Because electrical fields emit electromagnetic radiation, often at low frequencies. If the frequency is low enough, it can be recieved and misinterpreted by the brain as the waves emmited from another person's mind. This results in a feeling that you are not alone when you most definitely are. Your subconcious does some strange things when it can feel somebody but not see them because of the way it looks for patterns and correlation. It will make everything you can't make out into a person if it thinks a person is nearby. If the waves are a bit off, it won't seem like a person but might seem like something else. An animal, a monster, some other being. If you ever had an "encounter" with something you never saw or heard, this is what happened. A lot of the time, the electric currents that emit these waves also humm, hence the humm being associated supernatural phenomena. I'm not saying all supernatural phenomena are imaginary, but most are, especially in a day and age where we get so much interference.

My encounters are different. I can see the being in question, it's not just my mind playing tricks on me because it's getting EM and thinks there's something there. I once touched said being and it was not only solid but felt exactly like it should have. (I touched his arm. It felt like a boy's arm.) He ran away from me, and I could hear his footsteps quite clearly. Later times I see him quite clearly and for periods lasting anywhere from several seconds to over a minute. The only reason it isn't longer is because I hurry away from him. He's really there, and I only don't do anything about it is because I'm not sure what the best thing to do is.

And that just about concludes this topic. Now that somebody has brought religion into it, I'd rather not address that and just move on to the second event. (The strangest in hindsight, even though I didn't think so at the time. Completely unrelated to this one.) Think I should make a different thread for the second one, or just keep going in this one? Commentor's choice.
