I've seen Shadow People or "Shadows" twice in my life, once as a 7 or 8 year old girl, and once early last June. Both times, I was in a dark room. The Shadow looked like a normal shadow, except if seemed to have depth. A sort of 3-dimensional shadow. It was humanoid, about the size of an average adult male (6 ft?), and it had glowing red eyes.
The first time, my mom had just recently added a walk-in closet to her room, and I liked to go there and just sit to think, since it was quiet. For some reason, I was just fond of that room. Well, one day (morning to mid-afternoon, I don't remember exactly), I had been sitting in there, and started to get up to leave. I reached up to turn off the light, before I stepped out of the room. Something caught my eye, and I turned to look at it. What I saw was a shadow that looked about the size of a human adult male, only it had glowing red eyes. At first, I couldn't even move, because I was too scared. I felt like this thing wanted to hurt me. Like I was being invaded. When I finally came to my senses, I ran out of there as fast as I could, into the adjacent bedroom, turned on the light, and dove behind the bed. It was months before I could go into that closet or sleep in the dark.
The second occurrence was around late May or early June of 2007 (I was 19 at the time). I was up late, as usual, but I was about to go to bed. I noticed there was something I forgot to leave in the living room (don't remember what), so I grabbed it, and went in there. I didn't bother to turn on the light, since I can see pretty well in the dark, and I was just going in there to leave the object. As soon as I put it down, I thought I saw something move in the corner. The feeling in the room immediately shifted from comfortable to spooky, and I hastily turned around to leave. I took only one or two steps, then felt something cold touch the back of my neck/right shoulder, along with a quick gust of air. I froze, but after a few seconds, managed to turn around. A similar figure, or perhaps the same one from before was standing less than two feet away, but this time, it was only slightly larger than me. It had the same glowing red eyes, and I felt the same eerie, invaded/violated feeling as before. I don't know how long I stood there just staring at it, but eventually I ran out of the room and into my bedroom, where I turned on every light and lamp. I finally went to bed, but I still left all the lights on.
Has anyone else ever seen these things or does anyone know much about them? I've found several accounts from people around the world with similar experiences, but no one seems to know what they actually are or their intent.
