Maybe A Shadow Person?

Yesterday while i was on this site i was reading some stories. to my left is the kitchen and then a door with a good sized window. as i was reading i saw a black figure maybe four feet high run across my deck and it really freaked me out. i got right off of the computer and went upstairs. here is a picture of the door and stuff so you can see how small it was.s229.photobucket.com... some crazy stuff has been going on at my house this past year, i just stop researching the paranormal and it seems like everything is happening now, i'm gonna have to get back into it, hopefuly i get some good pics!

For some reason we are able to better perceive paranormal apparitions out of the corner of the eye than looking straight at it.

I have seen MANY MANY things at a glance that vanished if I tried to look at them directly!

my head was slightly turned at the time, i was looking at the radio that is on the counter where i had the camera and i saw it run by extremely fast and it deffinately had a human shape i could see a head shoulders and maybe an arm. just talking about it is freaking me out because i'm in the exact same spot! okay i have to leave for a while i'm getting the same feeling in as in my other thread about last night and as i am writing this i can feel someone's "hand" on my shoulder and it touched my ear! i need to leave for a while

How often has this been happening, and is that the only thing happening?

Zane is correct, human peripheral vision isn't entirely focused, but it picks up movement and light changes as well as direct vision.

Was it transparent or solid. That's creepy either way.

The brain is trained to fill in the images as you look directly on an object. Peripheral vision sees things the brain cannot interpret as objects it has worked out as the world we see. Its like looking at a TV with a reflection you can see when the TV is off. Turn the TV on and the reflection almost goes unobserved as your brain interprets the TV screen.

I see black objects moving from my peripheral vision as well as lights and silhouettes of people moving around me. It does not cause me fear or uneasiness. I accept it is there and sometimes will say, I see you there. Just like looking at the stars at night. Sometimes they do odd things like glow brighter and twinkle until you look directly on them.

I often wonder if it is our unconscious mind creating images in our peripheral vision of things we seem to fear.

I hate spiders and I'm ALWAYS seeing shadow-bugs. I mean all the time. I see em at work, in the car, at home. I kinda jump too. Now what I don't see is shadow people. I've never seen one. But, I can imagine the feeling. I can understand the experience, but, I have never been afraid of people. At least that's what I figure anyway.

ok to answer some questins
Gando702: it was the first time i think and it was solid black, like the darkest i've ever seen.

as it sped by the door i think it was going down a little too, like at an angle.

Hello again Coryblood,

I will not try and analyse what you may have seen, but perhaps offer you a way of getting rid of the problem...

Firstly, if you can let go of your fear this thing will not bother you, negative entities are attracted to fear! If indeed there is a shadow person/negative entity that is around you, there are many ways you can get rid of it.

First and foremost - don't be afraid, tell the damned thing to leave and don't come back! Secondly, we all have spiritual helpers that are only too willing to assist if only we would ask, you see, our spirit guides cannot intervene unless we summon their assistance, call on your guides/angels to protect you from any negative entities (they don't care if you have ignored them your whole life - they are happy to assist).

Many energy workers (myself included) cleanse their homes, cars & workplaces with the wonderful herb - sage. I either burn a small amount of sage though my house, or otherwise I mix a few drops of pure sage essential oil in a spray bottle and spray around the whole house whilst mentally asking that any unwanted energies be removed.

You can also sprinkle salt around the outside of your home whilst mentally asking for any unwanted energies to be removed.

If you would choose any or all of the above and I can guarantee you will feel more comfortable in your home.

I hope I have been of some assistance to you.

Kind regards

Dobbie

Perhaps you actually did see something. Perhaps what you say really was a shadow, but not a shadow person. Is it possible that it was the real shadow of real person running outside that you saw? The way living room window faces our neighborhood, when people walk or jog by in the late afternoon, I can see their shadows perfectly on the wall.

Just saying, it's a possibility.

no it's not possible the way the sun is. there would have to be someone on my deck and i would have heard them because it creaks alot

Dobbie: i was only scared the time i saw it and it was just instinct you know? i'm deffinately not scared now, i think i will be fine

So you actually think this "shadow" was on your deck?

I can see another window right through your door, so there must be some sort of area where a person could run through without being on your deck. Unless somehow your deck connects to the side of the other house.

there is a drive way, my neghbors house the one that saw alot of weird things with me, but my deck floor is atleast 5 feet tall so five feet plus three or four feet equals 8 or 9 feet and this thing was really shot

I don't want to say it's paranoia because sometimes I think I see figures move across the room but keep an open eye for it so you can take pictures
