The Mysterious Shadow People: What Are They?

Who really knows who the "shadow people" are and what they want? Those are two simple questions, but we don't have the info to answer them correctly. I am a biological scientist and know physics kinda well. I've had several (8) experiences with these shadow beings. They are intrusive, want their privacy, and are everywhere you think they aren't. They can appear at night, day, while one is awake, asleep, and mostly in places with alot of history (or buildings at least 30 yrs. old, from personal experience). You'll usually feel weaker after a visit from them because they take your energy as you sleep or are distracted. They are probably not made up of ordinary baryonic matter.

As a scientist, I don't believe they are demons, but probably some evil species or ill-intentioned visitors from another universe or galaxy. I mean, the universe is a HUGE place! They could be time travelers or extra-dimensional beings. Whatever they are, they are not good, they don't want to be seen, and they are everywhere. My guess is that we can only hope they can listen to reason and that God will protect us from them.

For those who don't believe, I hope these "shadow beings" do visit them. The only way a rational person can believe is to see themselves or look at the facts that indirectly prove the phenomena to have occured. I know, as do many others, that these beings that we have seen cannot be explained with our current scientific knowledge. We know what we saw. If you see the vast amount of testimony that people have given, you will know that something is up. These beings will not show up every second of everyday on national television. They are exclusive. Remember, radioactivity, magnetic fields, DNA, and atoms cannot be seen and probably never will be seen. But, no one questions their existence, unless the person is a dumbass. You have to take it on faith and understand that just because you haven't seen something, it doesn't mean that that thing (entity) doesn't exist. They are everywhere, but so are electrons and cosmic rays. However, let's wait until s**t hits the fan to see what they want soon.

The tall shadow people aren't so bad, but those short shadow people tend to play games with your mind. One stayed in my home for weeks. It made me drowsy and it moved very quickly for a stubby shadow. I do not believe they are ghosts just their own shadow race.

Just wanted to share my experience of shadow people.
After a fair few hours of writing music on the computer, it was now morning and light out.
I had gotten up for a seventh time or so to have a break 'n' do what I needed to do when, just as I left my studio and entered the next room I noticed a shadow pass along one side of my room. I turned back, thinking maybe it was my own shadow and tried to re-simulate the occurrence- but no shadow was cast- nor could I cast one on that wall owing to the time of day, light etc.
"I'm now starting to see shadow people," I thought- quite dismissively- and shrugged it off seeing I've experienced stranger stuff before.
Anyhow shortly thereafter I planned on going out, and after getting something to eat and what-not, I returned into the studio to have it happen again-on another side of the room!
"Whoa" I thought, but got on with my day (about a month ago now).
This hasn't happened before or again since.
I must stipulate here that even though I may have been up for a while, my mind WAS active and stimulated by the creative process of writing music, so it's a little difficult now in retrospect to shrug-off as just my eyes just playing tricks on me. I didn't feel threatened at the time- just buzzed by it.
I've had my eyes play tricks on me after being awake for 30+ hours before, but this was different.
I might add just by the way that I was pretty happy with the quality of ideas I'd been working on (music-wise) and usually have to feel 'inspired' to work on my tracks.
I leave this open for discussion and welcome any response

Alright my friend. Here is my question. I want to ONLY know about this particular variety of Shadow person. This one moves at blinding speed. It is seen form the corner of the eyes. When you turn to look it vanishes. Appears male only. Sometimes you can surprise it and watch it headon. I think it is because it does not realize it is not visible.
This particular variety of shadow person is the one I want to know about. Now what do i want toknow about it? Just one thing?
Is this variety of shadow person, a malevolent ghost of a dead person, possibly unnaturally killed or murdered, and refuses to move on to the next world???? So it is just this specific question I am seeking an answer for.

Commented on so many of these threads, but can't find the one I posted my own posts to now.

Seen these quite often, usually when I'm thinking about religion for some reason (I'm NOT trying to influence people but I think they may be daemons in essence, but because we have preconceived ideas of what these 'daemons' are, from the church and growing up, they seem unlikely or unbelieveable).

I have been an atheist most of my life, and have suffered from 'night terrors' many times, but have seen these face-on, side-on, almost everywhere and everywhen, even seen them in the daytime, providing there are shadows for them to hide in.

Definite they exist, but I think that aliens/daemons/etheric beings are all related so, IMO, a lot of theories on them are correct, WE are the ones who are wrong, because we only assume they fit into one category at a time.

Apparently, one of these is at my workplace.

I used to work night shift there but never saw anything myself.
Though one time when we (there were usually around 3 or 4 people at night) were sitting in the lunch room around midnight there was an almighty bang in the factory.
Something had moved a heavy metal plate (20mm thick and 2x1 ft wide) off a table and it hit the floor below.

I can think of 4 or 5 persons who during the nightshift have seen a shadow moving around in a certain area of the factory.
One person recently also saw some type of shadow/light? open a bathroom door off the main factory room. He was pretty freaked out.

About 150 metres away from our factory, across from the backyard, is another very large factory/building. A few years ago, one of the night cleaners (who also cleaned our factory) saw someone/something at the end of an office hall out the front, and he never went back there again.

I don't work nights anymore, but from time to time one of the night guys will mention he saw the shadow thing again.

I'm not sure if it was a shadow creature, or something else but I had an experience last night that left me curious.

It was really hot last night so I was having trouble getting to sleep. I would estimate it was around 3.00 AM when I started to doze off and I woke up when a bright light came in through my bed room window. I already knew what it was before I even looked, but it was my neighbors shed light that activates with movement close by.

I looked out the window, nothing really there, so I thought whatever and lid back down. A couple minutes passed and I just had the urge to look out the window again. His shed light was off not long after I first looked out the window, but there was a little light near my own shed that's always on. Anyway, our shed door was open all that day because things were being moved out of their all day and their really wasn't anything left in there, but I swear I seen a shadow of what looked like a person walk out through the door toward me in the window, and then turned and walked left from the shed door until the shadow disappeared into the dark around some trees and bushes.

The shadow was very crisp, I could make out the shape of the hair and everything. From the angle and distance of the light from the shed, it looked to me that in order to cast that kind of crisp in focus shadow, the person would have to be right next to the shed, because you know how when your a ways away from a light source the shadow just grows way out of proportion and out of focus right? But this shadow was extremely crisp and I didn't "think" I saw it, I DID see it plain as day!

I didn't hear a sound either, and my window was open and directly under my window their is a loose rock path to my neighbor that lives underneath me. I can ALWAYS hear when he leaves his house because of the rocks, but even if he had left the path goes to the right and it's to far away from the shed light to cast such a crisp shadow. It literally looked like you would have to be within a foot away from the shed to cast that kind of shadow.

Could this have been a shadow man? If not, what else could it be? Is their a reasonable explanation?

i used to see things at the edge of a little forest on the way to my old school but it might have been shadows anyway there are 2 graveyards(1 normal and 1 war) right on the other side of the road so i dont know

I came across this thread.. as I've recently been diagnosed as ADD.. and did research about the meds they put me on (as I always do) and saw that "SHADOWMEN" were mentoned several times.. Mainly in terms of "binge" episodes where the person had remained awake on the stimulant for several days at a time..

After reading many of the posts I felt I needed to subscribe and add my opinion..

First of all I don't disagree that these beings exist for some of you.. They do not for me.. Nor will they ever..

I know it's weird to say something does exist.. but it doesn't..
Most of you guys are saying these things are demonic (even the Atheist - dude come on.. If you believe demons exist?? maybe you should rethink the whole thing of whether God exists too... ).. And that is probably the case.. I don't believe in ghosts.. or aliens.. or anything like that.. But the bible clearly states that demons do exist.. The bible also clearly states that Jesus has complete control over everything.. Including these 'demons."

What I'm trying to say.. is that these "sightings," "beings," whatever.. they are most definetly a product of negative energy..
People pursue different routes in life and as such, experience different things, adopt different habits, and open their minds to new things.. For some people those experiences and habits lead to extremely negative behavior - murder, rape, whatever.. For some.. they just adobt a attitude of fear.. For others they just open their heart and souls to different realms.. VOODOO, WITCHCRAFT things of this nature.. and they develop into a slave like spirit to the things that we do not understand.. I can assure you.. These "Shadow People" probably do exist.. Although they can have no control over you unless you allow that..

I had an encounter with something like what is being described here, many years ago when i was 8 yrs old, i was staying at a reletives house in a granny flat(small house at back of big house). I woke up in the middle of the night, and when i looked around i could see shadows of people, at least 5 of them, walking around the flat, some were climbing on benches most were just idly walking around except 1 who kept walking up to my bed then looking right at me as in RIGHT infront of my face then it would walk away, then come back, this went on for hours and i could truly see them, arms legs the whole body it was almost pitch black but they were darker, just shadows, a few times i was tempted to swing at the face as it was right in front of me but was to afraid, i was to afraid to even call for my parents who were in the same flat, at some point in the night my mother spoke loudly to my father(or vice versa) i looked in that direction then looked back ahead and towards the shadows and they were gone. I know kids see things that arnt there and all that but i have remembered this VERY clearly all my life and deep down inside i know it was not my imagination. There is my story, i have never told anyone about that.
