Hey everyone,
Actually I had my first experience with shadow people this past weekend. I have read stories and people's experiences about things such as shadow people, sleep paralysis, and old hag stories all before-- but nothing prepared me for actually experiencing this phenomenon first hand, that's for sure.
I woke up in the early hours of the morning after the sun had risen, so there was light slowly pouring into my room. I turned my head slightly to take a look at the clock beside my bed to see how much longer I could sleep in and there it was, standing right at the foot of my bed, this semi-transparent shadow about 5'11" tall. I have light coloured walls in my room so I instantly knew I was looking at something that shouldn't be there.
I like to think of myself as a relatively calm and rational person, and definetly no stranger to metaphysical stuff, but the instantaneous feeling of terror made me sit straight up, heart pounding out of my chest, clutching the covers, screaming for a good minute until I could get a grip on myself. I think what upset me the most was that I couldn't shake this feeling of being violated somehow. How long was it there for? What did it want with me? No clue, but as soon as I reacted, it vanished.
I have been under a lot of stress lately, but I'm not ready to dismiss this experience as being overtired. It definetly shook me up for the next day or so... and gave me pause to think how little we really know about our vast universe.
Peace.
