I don't know if anyone is awake that can help me with this right now; I'll offer a quick background in case.
I have been off of ATS for a couple of weeks due to some family problems. Things have calmed the last few days, and because I got off late tonight, I found myself logged in to read some threads. I went outside to enjoy a smoke, and began to notice the "weird" vibe in the air.
It is really foggy,but very lit up outside. It is extremely still, but probably due to the time here. (3:30 a.m.)
I was about to go inside, when I heard an eerie cry.

I know my animal noises. This was not one of them.

The hair on my neck stood up, and I watched a long, dark shape pass just feet above my (single story) roof. It had no wings, and was almost similar to what a ball shot through a sheet would look like, if it carried the sheet with it, trailing the loose sheet in the wind.

The trailing part was similar to tendrils. It was about 4 to 5 feet long, and no more than a foot wide.

It passed over head, over my roof, and disappeared over some neighboring trees.

I felt suddenly exposed, and went inside. It then suddenly hit me to check on my two roommates. Both are disabled, and I can't explain it, but I felt like that "thing" was collecting souls. (my eyes are literally tearing up as I write this, it was scary)

I woke both of them up, and now I am writing this.

No, I am not High, Drunk, or sleep deprived. Nor am I prone to hallucinations.

Anyone ever experience this before?

No, I don't need attention, so if you are only here to poke the bear, go away please.

Hmmmm.....

Poke the bear it is.

Well my friend, the truth is, I post on this forum due to the generally open minded people that tend to congregate here. It is a wonderful place to get feedback on issues that one may not know an expert in person to ask.

Also, the general anonymity of such places as this site allow people to reach outside their own comfort zone in order to better understand things without fear of public ridicule.

Does this answer your question?

No it didn't answer my question.
I didn't ask why you post on this forum.
I asked why you post things specific like this.

It could have been a hallucination, or it could have been a bird flying along with its wings folded back. Many birds of prey do that to fly faster when chasing its dinner. Said dinner might also emit a distress call, which is designed to get your attention.

Until you can rule those out, it's rather irrational to leap to any other conclusion. The lack of evidence doesn't help your position.

Hey Jason,

Well I can't put a name to what you saw or even claim to have seen something similar myself. But your account reminded me of something similar to what a friend of mine encountered a few years ago.

About 11 - 12 'o' clock at night she was in a car travelling the moors road that goes from Pickering to Whitby (North Yorkshire), with her sister and another woman. As they took the sharp hairpin bend that drops down past the Hole of Horcum and levels out by the Saltersgate Inn, they all saw something standing on the edge of the road.

She said it was the most terrifying thing she'd ever seen because of the sense of foreboding they all felt. She described it as about 12ft tall and covered in wispy rag like attire that was moving as if blown by a light breeze ... there was no visible face or other body parts like hands or feet just the rags from top to bottom.

Once they'd safely manned the bend they turned around at the inn and came back (this took a matter of seconds and the 'thing' was nowhere to be seen. If it was somebody dressed-up they would have seen them running across the moors (nowhere to hide) the only way it could have disappeared in the time it took them to turn the car around was if it had taken flight and headed upwards. It wasn't foggy but there was low cloud.

Now a logical explanation might have been a bin bag or some material caught on a bush ... but I know my friend and she would have known the difference ... plus there are no 12ft bushes in the area or trees.

And it was not a case of 3 hysterical females on an isolated moors road late at night, letting their imaginations get the better of them. And I can say this with confidence because my friend (and occasionally her sister), are often up on the moors alone in the early hours when we celebrate our sabbats ... they like me are not easily spooked, but whatever they saw scared the bejeebus out of them.

Reading your story reminded me of this.

Woody

I have seen something like that. when i was stationed at Ft. Lewis WA.
I awoke in the middle of the night and looked out the window at the house
next door. I saw shadowy figures moving around in a swirl. One of them, the leader i guess, swooped to the top of the house and took physical
form. It looked like what your friends saw accept this thing looked at me.
It new i could see it. My wife asked me what i was doing and i told her,
she prayed for protection and they left. I went back to sleep.

creepy! I think there are things in this world that can't be explained
right away but we should as a group attempt to seek out an answer
one we can all agree on no matter what faith or belief we may have.
