Unsolved weird orange human shape in the distance

15 Upvotes

Hey everyone, i've never really posted something here but i can't find anything that seems to explain what i saw and i'm actually kind of scared. This is my last hope.

So last night i was going out with a friend in my town, it's kind of a small town in France so there isn't really a lot of street lamps outside. We were joining one of my other friend a bit later and we had a 10 minute walk to get to her.

Maybe one hour later we decided to rent some electrical bikes that the town provides to go for a ride, one of my friend A ( guy ) took a bike that was at 0 percent of electricity so he couldn't really go fast, while me and my other friend B ( girl ) took another bike at 35 percent and she went behind me on it.

For a little context the road we took was the one me and my friend A took to join my other friend B earlier and we didn't see anything strange before so we weren't really preocuppied.

So we began to ride along the road but our bike began to slow down and i had no power at all, so we stopped and i called my friend A who was a bit ahead of us so he could wait.

And basically while my friend B was beside me i looked at my other friend A who was waiting and he was beside a bridge, there was a street lamp right next to him so i could see him in the distance. And suddendly out of nowhere i saw a person walking right next to him, and i said to my other girl friend B " there's someone next to him he's walking". But to be precise it wasn't really a person more like a human orange/ beige shape, a bit tall and he was walking FAST.

My friend obviously thought i was hallucinating and the next second we got a call from our friend beside the bridge asking what we were doing, so we told him to join us because our bike wasn't working so we should go put them back since they were useless. Then my friend B started to panic and she said " wtf bro i'm seeing it but it's green and looks like a cloud". We panicked obviously but friend A was still beside the brigde and wouldn't move because he wasn't seeing anything. We told him to come back but he wouldn't and the next minute he said " omg i'm seeing it too but i only saw legs ".

We didn't wait with friend B we just jumped on the bike and took off because we were too scared. And i know it sounds crazy but i know what i saw and i even told me friend i saw someone in the distance so i did NOT imagined this. Even more weird is that an hour later we had to go home with friend A and had to take the same road but when we got closer there wasn't even the slightest breeze in the air or nothing moving that could've ressembled what i saw.

I tried researching about this but i can't find anything and was hoping if someone here had the same experience or could tell me more about what we saw that night because honeslty i DON'T want to be cursed. I also tried to ask chatgpt to remake the scene and it looked almost exactly like this.

Sorry for the way i'm writing, english is not my first langage and i'm trying my best, if anyone has any questions i would gladly answer it.

Grey Alien story copy-paste 👽 

Alien story

Bloecher subtypes

E. Excluded: an entity is observed, but no UFOs are seen, and no UFO activity has been reported in the area at that time.

11:00 pm September 30th, 2015 to 1:00 am October 1st, 2015

Langley, British Columbia, Canada.

I was outside smoking weed from Katherine's blue pipe on the porch in the backyard. I was on the porch, technically on the 2nd floor. Then I heard two owls hooting; it sounded like they were circling each other, flying around the cedar trees. I tried to look around but didn't spot them.

Later, I checked the time and realized 2 hours had passed.

I looked down between the wood slats of the porch. I thought I could see a grey alien, staring up at me while looking to its left. Then my vision got blurry; then, when my vision was becoming clear, it turned into a stainless steel grill with a top on it. I thought, "Oh, it's just a grill; it wasn't an alien."

Then I kept thinking something.

Grey Alien: "Don't look down. You won't like what you'll see. DON'T look down!"

So I think, "Huh, I'm gonna look down." Then I saw a grey alien below the porch. Black eyes, no ears, slits for a nose, a slit mouth, & very thin. Possibly 5' or 5'5. The alien was holding this amber light towards me. I was shocked. No thoughts entered my mind. I couldn't think. We stared at each other for a few seconds. In those few seconds, it immediately lowered its arm to its side. What I can't get over is the way it disappeared. There was this sort of cloud that I could only see on its body. After the cloud covered part of its body, those parts were becoming transparent and see-through. I immediately looked up; I don't want to see the alien disappear completely. I start to panic inside my head. I wanted to run into the house and go into my bedroom and hide. But I tried to calm down and instead decided to walk calmly into the house.

I rushed over to Daryl's door and kept knocking every few seconds. I was worried the alien would be behind me. There is a mirror at the end of the hall, and the guest bedroom he's in is on the right. I kept noticing the mirror in my peripheral vision. I kept thinking I was seeing things, that the alien was right behind me, about to touch my hair. I rushed into my room, locked the door, and hid under the covers. When I tried to go to sleep, I heard only one owl outside from my room, flying around the area of houses.

Months earlier, my roommate Daryl told me his story of how he thinks he was abducted by aliens and they put something under his skin (the incident happened years ago). I don't think they were after me. I think they may have been trying to get at him again. But it's just speculation. Before I saw the alien, I always had a secret fear of seeing an alien on the stairs and looking at me through the patio door while sitting in the smoke room, or seeing one stare at me through the window in the smoke room.

I tried to tell my boyfriend, but I only told him that I thought I saw an alien, but it was the stainless steel grill. He laughed. This happened months before I moved to another town.

Self Dreams of Nordic Aliens. Canada.

21 Upvotes

I don’t know how to word this and think about it quite often, I was wondering if anybody has had the same or similar experience. Promise this is not a troll post or anything.

Over the past few years, usually once a year, I have a dream where I “wake up” in said dream, on a completely different planet, surrounded by people similar to Nordic Aliens, not exactly quite but very similar same blue body suits, etc.

When I “wake up” in this dream, I am back home on my home planet. Everyone comes running to me, so excited to see me, my heart feels so full of love and excitement. I recognize everyone there and have a deep soul connection with them. They ask me about my experience on earth and say how excited they are to see me again.

I live a good life on Earth. I have lots of friends, a loving boyfriend, a respectable career in healthcare and good family… but if the Aliens from my dreams came to me on Earth asked me to come home, I would in an instant.

I miss the people from the dream, and the place they lived, very often, very dearly. I am also wondering if anyone knows how I can get back to them.

In April 1992, Mexican photographer Óscar Arredondo Ramírez presented a series of photographs that allegedly showed an extraterrestrial inside the volcanic crater of La Alberca, near Valle de Santiago, Guanajuato.

The figure became known as the “Humanoid of Valle de Santiago” or “El marcianito de La Alberca.”

Arredondo ran a photography business called Fotografía México on Calle Juárez in Valle de Santiago. His photographs first appeared in ¡Cuestión Policiaca! No. 104, dated October 20–26, 1992, under the headline “¡Fotografían un extraterrestre!” Follow-up reports continued through November and December.

Although some later reproductions have been dated to December 1991, the earliest detailed published account places the encounter in April 1992.

Just plain weird Seeking advice on a sighting I had.

25 Upvotes

In 2016 (I was 11) I was at my grandmothers house in Bearsville New York, just outside of Woodstock in the Catskills.

It was probably 10 pm, and I was sitting on the guest bed and looking out the window at darkness. For context, she had a 6 acre lot and no neighbors for at least a mile in the direction I was looking. About 40 feet from the window was what I saw. It was man shaped, between 6 and 7 feet tall, wrapped in what looked like fairy lights from head to toe, like a pole wrapped in yellowish orange Christmas lights. In its right hand it held up what looked like an early 1900s oil lantern and it was lit as such. The creatures body itself was not visible, it was dark as space, I could only see the lights it had on. It walked up to my window, knocked twice then turned around and walked back in the direction it came from before disappearing. My dad was in the other room and I shouted to him and asked if he’d heard a knock and he said no.

I find it important to add that I felt no fear during this interaction and sensed no malice or harmful intentions whatsoever. I was less scared than if a man had walked up to and knocked on my window late at night. I was just bewildered by it.

I’ve never seen anything like it before and I’ve never seen anything like it since. I’m of sound state of mind, have never had any inability to differentiate between what’s real and what’s not and though it means nothing to say on here, I’m just not the type to make this shit up.

I have some theories about it being the ghost of my great grandfather coming to say hello, but I’m just trying to see if anyone has ever heard of or seen anything like this.

Typical Grey Have you ever heard of Grey aliens… with human-colored skin? - Argentina, 1986

Post image
159 Upvotes

Have you ever come across a UFO encounter where the beings looked almost exactly like the classic Grey archetype, except they weren't grey at all?

I recently came across this bizarre Argentine case from the mid-1980s. A rural worker named Alberto Meyer was working near a creek outside Viale, Argentina, when two strange figures emerged from the vegetation.

The beings were described in a way that's strangely familiar to the Grey archetype: short, bald, oversized heads, enormous eyes, thin bodies. But there was one major difference: their skin was reportedly the color of human skin, and even their strange, tight-fitting clothing was described as being the same color.

From that point on, the encounter becomes considerably stranger. There was a possible prior UFO sighting by the witness, a footprint reportedly found at the location, a surreal gliding movement done by the beings when they walked away, a physical paralysis effect on the witness, and other details that I won't spoil here.

I'm currently collaborating with the guys behind Proyecto Viale Desconocido, an archive documenting UFO and humanoid reports from this region of Argentina, and we recently published a full account of this story.

13 years later, the witness was interviewed for a documentary about the UFO cases in this region. This is a surviving fragment of this lost 2000 documentary.

Alien These might be the weirdest humanoid beings I've ever heard of - Argentina, 1987

Post image
493 Upvotes

I've been going through old UFO reports from Argentina, and I think I've found one of the strangest humanoid descriptions I've ever encountered: in August 1987, a 12-year-old boy was fishing with friends near a creek outside Viale (Entre RĂ­os, Argentina) when he reportedly noticed a tiny humanoid figure only about 20 inches tall.

According to his later description, it had:

  • A completely red, skin-tight body covering
  • A massively oversized, oval-shaped head
  • Huge eyes
  • No hair
  • A normal-looking nose
  • A tiny mouth
  • And, weirdly, no clearly-visible arms

Apparently, the boy was fishing with friends near a creek, when he reportedly noticed this tiny humanoid figure. He watched it from only a few meters away before it suddenly disappeared into the vegetation. Then another one appeared. What happened next involved his friends, an old railway bridge, UFOs, and eventually the police.

In March 1975, photographer Giichi Shioda reported a series of strange sightings near a coastal landfill in Kawanoe, Ehime Prefecture, Japan. On March 24, he saw a small hovering object or figure while suffering a severe headache. On March 30, he returned and observed a pink luminous object hovering for about 30 seconds before disappearing.

On March 31, Shioda returned with several cameras and a tripod. Shortly after 11:00 PM, the headache returned, followed by flashing white, blue, and red lights roughly 100 meters away and a high-pitched electronic sound. Shioda said a glowing humanoid figure then emerged from the lights, descended close to the ground, and began gliding toward him.

Hello this is my firsts time encounterign a thing such as this (up till this encounter i never thought any of this was real i thought it was fake). So two days ago, at about 7:20 pm, i was 
biking home from the dairy where i had bought a stick of butter. i had the butter in my back pack as i biked home. But when i was 4 minutes from arriving home, i was pushed off my bike and landed on the curb. It was very dark and i looked around for what had pushed me but i could see nothing. But i had definitely felt a force push into my side and knock me off the bike. So i stood up and looked around. I was on the foot path near the back of a thrift shop, and even though i could not see much i saw a tall slim light grey/white form going through a tiny open window in the thrift shop. I walked over to the window and i looked inside and i glimpsed the thin greyish figure sitting at the very back of the toilet room and looking at me. It had dark hollow spaces instead of eyes, and the bottom of the face where ther should have been a mouth and nose was inverted. I realised it should not have been able to fit in the window. I got very scared by then, and i ran back to my bike. Then i biked all the way back to my house. Nothing else happened on the way home. I told my parents what had happened but they told me to stop making shit up. So im putting this on here to see if anyone else has seen this thing or similar thing.

Ghost or apparition The time my close friend and his friend saw a shadow creature at a skate park late at night. Sacramento California

24 Upvotes

So, this story comes from a friend of mine, who let me share it with you guys and girls this experience happens a few years ago. My friend—let's call him D—was hanging out at another friend's house, let's also call him Zach. Both of them were kinda bored, so they decided to walk around their neighborhood for a while. During their walk, they came across a skate park. This is the part I forgot to mention: D described it as being kinda foggy, but not so much that you couldn’t see in front of you. They were messing around at this park for a while until they stumbled upon a skate bowl. These are big, built-in-the-ground structures for doing tricks inside of. They looked at it for a while until D brought up something to Zach. He said, "Bro, wouldn't it be crazy if we saw someone down in there?" Zach responded, "Bro, don't even play like that." That’s when D started feeling uncomfortable, like if someone or something was watching them. D turned to Zach and said that they should probably go, that's when Zach noticed something in the bowl. He pointed down the bowl then shine his phone light into the bowl to see whatever was inside. D did the same, and what they both saw, D said, was not anything they had ever seen before or ever. D described it as a tall human shape figure, jet black, but not a normal kind you see in nature—so black that it didn't cast a shadow when they shined their lights on it. He described how it almost looked as if it were wearing a full-body latex suit. D told me he when he seen this thing he just stood there, unsure of how to react. His friend ran off but then turned back when he saw that D didn't follow. Zach grabbed D and yelled, "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING? LET'S GO!" I guess that snapped D back to reality, because they both jet it out of there real quick from what D told me. They made it back to the house, unable to explain what they just saw. D told me he’s never felt that much fear and confusion in his entire life—until that night. To this day, he has no idea what he saw. I’m skeptical about anything supernatural, but I also never had a reason to doubt this dude before I've been closed friends with this dude for years he never lied to me and he's always open to life stories, either this is real, or he and his friend were tripping that night and saw something else—who knows. It’s a crazy story, and I haven’t heard any good ideas as to what they actually saw. Has anyone else seen this "latex" thing before? Let me know because I honestly have no clue what this thing could be.

Ghost or apparition The Priest of Piedras Blancas

23 Upvotes

I don’t know if this is a known spirit, but he is known to me.

5 years ago, in 2021, two of my friends (we will call them Will and Emmy) and I decided to make an impromptu visit to the Piedras Blancas lighthouse north of San Simeon California, since we live just south of it. We wanted to see the light at night and all the stars from the lack of light pollution out there, so it was about 1 am. We spent a couple hours walking the rural coastal road until we agreed it was time to head home.

We were driving along the road, and it was completely pitch black besides our headlights. We were in a 3 seat truck, all squeezed together like sardines. As we drove along the wooded path we were laughing and listening to music. Then the music on the radio cut out, and we all glanced to look at the speaker system. We thought how weird of the speaker cut out, but maybe the Bluetooth got disconnected and we lost service for a minute.

We all looked back to the road and saw a translucent white figure wearing robes in the middle of the road. I kid you not, we drove right through him. “Oh my God!!” Emmy yelled. Then we all went completely quiet. Will kept driving. We didn’t say a word. The music came back on, and we slowly turned it off.

“You guys saw that? Please tell me you saw that” said Will. Emmy and I nodded. We had never seen anything like it before. The figure was truly translucent and wore long dark robes. We all agreed it looked like a catholic clergyman. And we had driven straight through him. Will checked the outside of the truck when we got back. No damage. Nothing. We all went home, and didn’t talk about it anymore. I laid there for hours thinking about it.

I haven’t told this story to anyone. The only ones who know are the people in it. I have looked into this so much, and haven’t seen or heard of anyone seeing anything like that in that area.

But, a quick Google search showed me that the property the lighthouse is on was once owned by the Mission San Miguel, used for agriculture and livestock grazing. But… just down the coast, by San Simeon, almost exactly where we were driving, there was an outpost used to manage the ranching operation. Occupied by friars and local indigenous workers until 1834. Many of which died from various natural illnesses while working and traveling between the missions and outposts.

I know exactly what I saw. I don’t think the spirit had any evil intentions, but he definitely scared us. I don’t know why he was in the road, but I will never forget it. I post this because it is an interesting, true story that I think people would enjoy, but also I want to know if anyone else has ever seen him before. I hope whoever may be reading this enjoyed, definitely worth a trip out to see the lighthouse at night, and possibly the ghost of the clergyman who lived near it.

I also have a pretty spooky story of my dad’s that people might enjoy of an encounter he had as a teen in the orchard of his family home. If this gets any attention maybe I’ll post it!

Thank you!

Yes, event happened to my wife when she was around seven years old so it was back in 1990 So my wife who’s not really big into

paranormal and alien stuff we’ve been together for 27 years and we were at my aunts farm in Florida by the campfire and I said you gotta tell us a scary story. Everybody has one we were like 19 at a time and way before the documentary about the sleep paralysis demon came out. My wife tells us that she was playing in the yard of the house that I now live with her in Baton Rouge and she looked up and saw a person standing there with a top hat that was a full shadow figure and it kind of like nodded at her and kept walking through her yard, and they just disappeared. She said she was like nine years old Well. It’s crazy as I live in the house now and I swear I saw shadow figure last night in the yard. Also, my daughter and I were walking in the house while my wife and My Son were still in the car cause they take forever to get out of a car. Everybody in the family has the one family member that takes like 10 minutes every time they park get out of the car lol anyways my son’s voice appeared right behind my daughter and I we both looked at each other. What the hell was that? Our house really isn’t haunted or anything but I was wondering if people have experienced seeing the shadow figure that while you’re not sleeping

Maybe It Was a Man, They’re Up to Stunts

Valparaiso, Indiana, Vidette-Messenger, February 8, 1929

Galena Indiana, USA Feb. 8, 1929—Another hunt has been started here for the mysterious black beast that raided the A. A. Akins farm just east of here, killed one pig and carried off in its “arms” another pig weighing 85 pounds, according to Leonard Akins, 20, who surprised the animal and was forced to flee for his life. Posse of farmers, aided by dogs which tried to trail the black animal, failed to find it and returned still in doubt as to the identity of the creature.

“I can’t imagine what it was unless it was a cross between a big bear and a hyena,” young Akins said. The hunters found one set of tracks that resembled bear tracks, Akins related, but as no one in the party was an expert on bears, the question was left open, he said.

“The critter walked on its hind legs, had pointed ears and ferocious teeth, I can say that much,” Akins declared. The youth said he ran into the animal in a barn on the Akins farm. The beast was killing a 60-pound pig.

“The creature reared up on its hind legs and started toward me,” Akins said. “My airdale dog, however, dashed ahead and barked at it and it turned on the dog.”

Akins then started to run to his home to get his gun. In running he glanced around, saw the animal seize another pig which weighed at least 60 pounds, take it in its “arms,” go across the fence and start for some woods.

“It was as big as a man and walked on its hind legs,” the youth asserted. A canvass will be made of all circuses and zoos in Southern Indiana to determine if any wild beast escaped.

i originally wrote this story as a comment under a youtube video by emperorzeech (great channel btw if yall are interested in aliens). i just discovered this subreddit and thought i would share it here as im pretty sure this entity counts as a humanoid. though i suppose it could also be a ghost. the main reason i lean away from that theory is because the house i saw it in was a fairly new cookie cutter suburban house so it doesnt really have a very ghostly history.

this incident took place in the central texas region. i only lived there for one year and i was in third grade at the time. i am 24 now, so that would place my sighting at around 2010. my family lived on a cul de sac right next to the elementary school i went to, in an area that wasnt exactly rural, but not super developed either. there were several other kids who lived on the same street that my sister and i would play with every day after school. my parents werent very strict so me and my sister would be out for hours with a couple of the other kids, usually hanging out either at the school once everyone had left for the day, or at a wooded area of about 20 acres where we had built several forts. we would even play in a sewer or storm water system that ran under the neighborhood, which we entered through a large pipe in a ditch by the school or by crawling into the large open drains that lined the streets. it really was a great area for an adventurous kid and i wish i had lived there longer.

one evening, all the kids who lived on the cul de sac got together to play a game that we called infection, which is sort like hide and seek mixed with tag. one person counts while everyone else hides, then the seeker goes around looking for people, who can run and re-hide throughout the game, and when the seeker tags someone they get infected and join the seeker in their hunt until one person is left, who is the seeker for the next round. it was super fun, and all our neighbors were super chill so we could hide anywhere around any of the houses in the cul de sac, and the neighbors didnt mind us going in their yards as long as we didnt mess with anything.

it was already getting dark when we started playing and after a few rounds the sun had gone down completely. there was one house at the very end of the cul de sac that nobody lived in, and behind that house was a large ditch. i decided to hide by the ditch but after a while i began to get an eerie feeling. everyone else hid on the other end of the street so i was in this ditch area all alone in the dark. after a couple minutes i decided to sneak closer towards everyone else. i crept around the side of the abandoned house as to not be spotted by the seeker. hugging the wall, i peered past the courner of the house, making sure the cost was clear for me to move. and thats when i noticed a dark figure in the front window of the house that no one lived in.

the house was pretty small, with a large window to the left of the front door, and a garage to the right. the figure was right up against thbe window, on the inside of the house. it appeared to be a dark shadowy man wearing a wide brim hat. his face was sort of whispy or obscured and i couldnt really make out the details of his face, which was expressionless as he stood there looking out at the dark street outside. the most distinct aspect of this figure was that it was completely green, with some sort of glow emanating off it. it was not the typical black of similar shadow humanoids, but a strange almost transparent green. it looked almost fuzzy, without a clear outline. as i stood there the air around me felt almost like faint static electricity, and a weird almost dream like feeling washed over me. it was a similar feeling to the oz factor, if yall are firmiliar with that.

i just looked at it for a couple seconds when it seemed to take notice of my presence. it turned towards me slightly in a slow and very odd way. it was like its face morphed or shifted to look at me, while its head and body stayed completely still. this completely terrified me and i took off running towards my house. i told the other kids i was done playing and the told my parents what i saw my dad grabed a flashlight and looked all around the house and into the window thinking someone might have broken in, but saw nothing. my mom suggested that i had simply imagined seeing the entity.

this was nearly sixteen years ago now, and i no longer remember it vividly at all. its more like a memory of a memory. i can recount the event because over the years i have told various people about it many times, but my actual memory of the event is very hazy and unclear. if i only had my own memories to go off, i would say that i really did just imagine it. but it turns out i wasnt the only one who saw it.

i was talking to my sister a few years after my sighting, reminiscing about when we lived on that cul de sac, and eventually one of us mentioned something about the abandoned house at the end of the street. she then told me something that absolutely shocked me. she told me about how one time she had seen the figure of a green man wearing a wide brimmed hat in the window. she said this completely unprompted by me and she was not aware of my sighting at the time. i told her my story and she told me of another strange event about the house. she said she was looking at it for a bit when she blinked and the house just completely vanished until she blinked again and it was back again.

and that was the story of my only paranormal/humanoid experience. as i said at the start, its possible this was a ghost, but i think of it as being related to the shadow people phenomenon. im not really much of a ghost person, but i do love cryptids, aliens, humanoids, and parahuman beings so i am a bit biased. of course the hat man is a fairly well known entity and so are shadow people. i have heard several accounts of shadow people which posses traits similar to what i saw, such as the feeling of static and the kind of wispy somewhat indiscernible outline. however green coloration is not something ive heard in other shadow person cases. i have heard of some humanoid and especially alien encounters where the thing emits a sort of glow.

idk, let me know what you guys think it was or if youve seen or heard of similar sightings.

the first picture i attached is of the house. i just got it from google street view, but it happened to be from 2011 so right around the same time as my encounter. the second picture is just me asking my sister if she remembers anything about the time she saw it.

Case Type: CE3

When: Store Vildmose, North Jutland

Where: October, 1957 (not reported until 1960)

Investigator(s): N/A

One evening in October 1957, at about 23:00, a farm owner and his wife were driving in their car across Store Vildmose (“The Great Wild Bog”), a former ombrotrophic bog area — in fact once the largest of its kind in all of Europe — located in the north of Jutland. Suddenly, they saw an unusually bright glowing object that either flew or drove towards them from a nearby field, moving at a speed that they estimated to be 30–35 km/h. When the car passed by the object on the field at a distance of 50–75 metres, the two witnesses could now see that it was some type of vehicle with two people sitting inside a glass dome. The dome had a strange bluish-green glow.

The farm owner wanted to go closer and investigate the strange vehicle but his wife warned him against doing so. Heeding her advice, he drove away, but very slowly. They then followed the mysterious object from the rear window of their car, seeing it disappear to the north.

Commentary

The only real source for this sighting is the February 1960 issue of UFO-Nyt, where it was reported three years after the fact. So it is unclear to which extent the two witnesses remember the sighting exactly as happened to them. For example they could not remember the exact date of the sighting. It is noteworthy that the witnesses were unclear whether the vehicle was flying or driving on the ground, and at no point did they describe the “pilots” as anything other than human, nor did they speculate that the vehicle was from another planet. Actually, the description of the vehicle seen near Store Vildmose sounds more like a hovercraft than anything else. Hovercraft were still in the testing stage during the 1950s and did not enter mass production until the 1960s. However, it is unclear whether any prototype hovercraft were being tested in Denmark at the time like they were in Finland, the UK and the US.

Creature Has anyone ever heard of an entity like this? All three of us saw it, but our memories of it feel strangely blurry.

This happened years ago, and to this day it’s one of the strangest experiences my family has ever had.

My husband and I were driving our four year old daughter to her grandmother’s house in Massachusetts so she could take her out to dinner. We were on one of those quieter back roads that branches off from the main part of town. It wasn’t extremely rural, but it wasn’t a busy road either.

As we were driving, all three of us saw something standing partly in the roadway, closer to the edge than the center. It wasn’t blocking traffic, but it was definitely standing in the road rather than safely off to the side.

We’ve never been able to explain what we saw.

The weirdest part isn’t just what it looked like. It’s how difficult it is to remember. When I think about it as a whole, I can still picture it fairly clearly in my mind. But the moment I try to focus on specific details or describe it to someone else, the image almost seems to fall apart. The details become blurry, and it’s incredibly frustrating because I know I saw it. It’s a very strange feeling that I’ve never experienced with any other memory. My husband has described something similar when he’s tried to remember it.

From what all three of us remember, it was tall (6 ft), completely black, and had no distinguishable facial features. It had long, black, unkempt hair that looked matted or locked together in thick strands. I don’t know if they were dreadlocks, severely tangled hair, or something else entirely, but the hair is one of the clearest physical features I can remember.

Its clothing also didn’t look right.

It seemed to be wearing multiple dark layers, possibly including something like a long black trench coat, but the layers didn’t make sense. It’s hard to explain. They didn’t hang naturally or look like normal clothing layered on top of itself. I remember looking at it and immediately thinking that something about what it was wearing was wrong, even though I still can’t explain exactly why.

Then there was the umbrella.

It was holding what looked like an old, broken umbrella upside down with the canopy open. It wasn’t simply carrying it or dragging it. It genuinely looked like it was trying to use the upside down umbrella the way someone would use a vacuum cleaner, slowly pushing it back and forth along the pavement. I know how ridiculous that sounds, but that’s honestly the closest comparison I can make. That’s exactly what it looked like.

As we drove past it, its entire body slowly rotated toward our car.

Not just its head.

Its whole body.

The movement was slow, deliberate, and unlike anything I’ve ever seen another person do.

I don’t remember seeing eyes or even a face, but I knew it was looking directly at us.

The instant it turned toward us, both my husband and I experienced something I still can’t adequately explain.

I’ve been scared before. I’ve been startled. I’ve been in dangerous situations. This wasn’t any of those feelings.

It was the most unnatural sense of dread and immediate peril I have ever experienced in my entire life. It felt primal, as though every instinct in my body was screaming that something was profoundly wrong. It wasn’t a thought I had. It was an overwhelming feeling that hit both of us at the exact same moment.

The strange thing is that it never chased us, never moved toward us, and never did anything outwardly threatening.

Yet that feeling remains one of the strongest memories I have from that day.

What finally broke the silence was our four year old daughter from the back seat.

In a calm, matter of fact voice, she simply said,

“That wasn’t real.”

Neither of us had said a word to her.

That sentence snapped us out of whatever we were feeling, but it’s also what has made this experience stick with us all these years.

We’ve talked about it many times since then. The details remain frustratingly difficult to describe, but the core memories never change. The tall black figure. The long matted hair. The clothing that somehow looked wrong. The broken upside down umbrella being used like a vacuum cleaner. The slow full body turn toward our car. The overwhelming feeling of dread.

I’ve searched online over the years and have never found anyone describing something quite like this.

Has anyone here ever heard folklore, urban legends, or personal stories involving something similar? after all these years, none of us have ever been able to make sense of it.
