I have a few stories. I don't know why things keep happening to me but I have no reason to lie. I can't tell my stories in normal settings for fear of being branded a nut but the following actually happened to me and I'd love to hear from anybody who has had similar experiences.

I used to work nights in a nightclub in Perth, Western Australia and on my way home I had to walk through a large park called Hyde park. Hyde park had concrete paths lined with huge Mortan Bay fig trees. They are massive trees with large roots, big enough to sit on.
One night I was walking along one of the paths when I noticed that the roots of one tree were shaped like a person. I thought it was cool and when I got close I knelt down to have a better look. As I bent down, the figure in the tree looked up at me. I think it was a he, I'm not one hundred percent sure though. He was nestled in the roots of the tree and sort of appeared to be a part of it. He was kind of wet looking, at first I thought he was the victim of a mugging or something and I started to ask if he was alright but before I could get the words out I realized he was not human. He had big almond shaped eyes, cat like I think. I guess he looked like pictures of demons of aliens. Grays to be precise. He had very kind eyes though and I wish I'd stayed to talk but I was so freaked out that I ran without looking back.

The next day I went back to look at the tree and there was nothing resembling a person at all. It would be kind of a relief to me if I could write the experience off as a trick of the light or something but I trust my senses. I saw a few strange things in that park but that was by far the spookiest.
