Ok, just to start this of i am a 15 year old girl and what im about to tell you is actually happening to me and my friends. dont not believe me just because im young, im really freaked out about this.

Anywho, this whole thing stared when me, my two friends, Stephanie and suzan, and suzans boyfriend ,rory were all sleeping over suzans house.
Rory left to walk home, but came back 15 mins later, saying that he had heard footsteps behind him, but no one was there. steph and suzan went to look outside, while i stayed inside (i was to scared) . they came back inside and steph told me that she had not heard any footsteps, but she had seen a tall man in a black cloak, who was kinda blurry around the edges, she later said this to suzan, and suzan said that she had seen it before, and that it had followed her for a while. after this i got really scared. they stayed up for a few hours while i tried to get to sleep, so daylight would come. i was listing to the others talk, and when i was just about to fall asleep i heard steph say

"oi, suzan is that him"

Suzan went yes when, i heard this i thought they were playing a joke on me so, i opened my eyes to tell them to shut up, but when i looked up i swear there was something by the door, it looked like a shadow but it had human shape, stef yelled at it to go away and it just dissapered.

after this happened there was kinda a unspoken agreement not to talk about it, untill one day when suzan came to school looking real upset, me and steph asked here what was wrong and she said she had been seeing "the black thing" alot more then usual, and that she could even see him at school.

suzan went to see the school nurse , and she sent her to heaps of specialists
who did alot of tests on her, but they could not find anything that would make her have halucinations.

But then me steph and rory started seeing "the black thing" as well.

He would come just as you were about to fall asleep, you would get this feeling you were being watched. when this happened to me i opened my eyes for a micro second, and in that second i saw him there. watching me. i would get this feeling like my whole body was seizing up and i felt like i was shaking but i was'nt. when this happens i spend the rest of the night with the blanket over my head and my eyes squeezed shut untill i evantually fall asleep.

As i have said how could "the black thing" be a halucination if all 4 of us have seen him

if anyone has any idea how to get rid off him please tell me.

I also have seen this type of ghost,its in my house and i see it all the time.All of my family has seen it so I know im not crazy.There is no real way of "Getting rid of" this ghost(not to my knoledge).Other ways of showing themselves is a color spots that you pass off as seeing stars

Drop me a line delta_gear@hotmail.com

thanks for that its good to know that other people see these type of things,
But im not that scared of it anymore, it has come everynight, and if you just stare at it for a while it goes away, ive never seen it move, and theres no way it could really hurt me, unless it was a poltergiest, but they are mainly sensory, never visual.

anywho thanx

there are a lot of stories about "Shadow People" (yes, I have seen one too). Just make sure it is not your own fear, causing your reaction. Keep us informed.

When I was a kid, i remember watching a movie called WITCHBOARD. That man you say you saw reminds me from that evil man in that moive if any of you seen it. I've only seen it once and WILL NOT watch it again. Being 27 and at a young age when I seen that moive and seeing the look of this man in that movie, sometimes at nite when I think about it, I turn my light on.

But when I was a kid, I would see the same thing but it was this man from the movie and I believe me seeing this man was just out of my own fear and he was not really there. But in your case, You say all of your friends seen him. WOW thats heavy. Not much adivse I can give you, but just make sure you and your friends stay together and if one goes home, everyone walks that person home.

hey guyz, i just joined. anyway, i would suggest telling it (next time you see it) to just go away. if that doesn't work, tell me and i'll whip up a good website that might tell you how.

here ya go.

oh by the way, trick , about the whole huddling under the covers w/ eyes squeezed shut, don't let this screwy thing not worthy of flesh and bone scare you or disrupt your regular life. i'm only thirteen and i wasn't afraid when bill (he used to be a shadow person until i told him to leave) came up. in fact, you should give this dude a name and... ya know... make him part of your family/friend circle. or you could tell him to leave.

Uranium what made you call him "Bill"?. Whats your definaition of a shadow person ?

Just curios..

dunno... i just... called him bill... you know, you really need to visit that link i put up there. that website has everything. hehehe......

Have to go with Ladyspirit_guide on this one, think it's a shadow person.
I have seen them before, yes even here in The Netherlands.

One time we were having a BBQ at an nearby lake.
At around 02:30 i went to get my bike, wich was a few meters away so i started walking.

When I looked to my right, to the other side of the lake, I saw a dark shape following me.
When i stopped it stopped, ect.

I thought it was one of my friends so i went towards it.
When i was about 6 meters from it i looked to the groud, because i stepped in something.
When i looked back it was gone. :

I saw them a few times since then and i'm sure they are real.

I, myself, AM a shadow person. Or more precisely, a schadeaux person.

Here is another link to a page with info on the Shadow People.


Link

i think my link is more informative. well maybe it's because the website link that you posted led to doesn't work... not even the refresh button will do anything. i am so lost...

works for me...


try this:

I've checkked out all those sites and then some on the subject unfortunately I think the Shadowers.com site is for people who don't live in the same reality as me . . Unfortunately I am still yet to find anything better on the subject than the links uranium and Al posted .
I would still like to know why you called "Bill" a shadow person . Can anybody clarify "Shadow person " for me ? Is it alien , is it something you see out of the corner of your eye or is it something capable of full frontal manifestation and physical contact . What clasifies a shadow person encounter ? There are way to many different types .
