Whats opinion to shadow people?

I have seen this guy 3 times now i always wake up and he stares at me.

Now i read a few other people calling them shadow people and apparently many people saw them.

Any explanation why many people seem to see the same in there sleep?

Seen and more often heard 'em, and other /x/-tier shit. Could be otherworldly (or parallel or coterminous dimension, plane, or other /tg/ shit) entities, could be me going insane, could be plain old misinterpretations of other shit, eg:

>brain is known to make shit up on the spot if it doesn't comprehend a sensory stimulus, especially if its fight-or-flight is triggered

Example situation:

>see something slightly moving about in the shadow of your sofa in a darkened room

>all it is, is an empty chip bag or crushed paper cup or whatever, and an open window is letting in a breeze and slightly pushing it about

>but before your higher brain functions and consciousness realize that, the lizard part of your brain has already went "OSHITAPREDATOR RED ALERT REDALERTREDALERT" and has jacked up your heartbeat, flooded your blood with adrenaline, and so on

>but if your brain doesn't later ("later" could be as short as a quarter-second, just long enough for consciousness to take over and make a snap-analysis) understand that it was just some trash (and get a big laugh out of being that much a giant pussy), it could conjure up a split-second sighting of a "shadow person" because you've been reading too much /x/ lately

>now you're all "I JUST SAWD A 2SP00PY GH0000ST NUUUU" and sometime later another anonymous post is added to /x/'s personal experiences thread

I used to see one or two of them relatively frequently a couple years back. One time i got freaked out really badly and called my parents, which was a terrible idea since all it accomplished was me wasting my work day to go hang out in a hospital room until I got bored and left so I could eat and look at the sky again.

All in all the best I can say is decide on whether or not you want to see them and act accordingly. Sleep deprivation is the shortcut to meeting them, so get a solid 7 per night and they should disappear. Otherwise, develop meditation skills and allow them to draw near.

There's a chance I'm talking about something different, so take my words with a grain of salt.

yeah, that could be the case. It's kind of like what I described in my previous post, except the shadow people I saw were persistent. Your explanation isn't exactly comprehensive, but I see that you weren't trying to be. I think that overcoming the shortcomings of the senses should be the first step to getting into /fringe/ stuff. If one approaches everything with a solid pillar of placidity and rigor I think that a lot of anxiety and white noise could be eliminated.

Because your brain goes to sleep slightly before you do. It's basically what the world looks like, but with most of the filters that tell you that such things must not exist and therefore they do not exist gone.

As >>19390 said, you can get the same with meditation, and especially with the opening stages of mirror-divination.

Most of that stuff are just the crawlies, basically psychic smog of no consequence. If it ever does anything more than stand/move there, its time to call an exorcist on the house. If it's actually, physically, opening a door like in your picture, start sprinting while showering in sulphur/holy water/dragon's blood and praying to whatever deity you believe in.

I think we've talked about this very recently but I don't know in which thread so I can't link it for reference. Anyway, you have to know if you have sleep paralysis or if you really see something in awake state. The more encounters like these you will have, the better you will become in distinguishing between what is half-dream vision of your surroundings (room, objects, shadows) and what is some real shit. I've seen so much weird stuff, not just shadow people or whatever you call it but also creatures that looked like humans, spirits/ghosts and also once death. I don't really like to talk about succubus shit because people take it as good joke but yes, it happened to me as well for few times and I don't know if I was ever so terrified in my life as I was in those instances. Can elaborate a bit more or tell some stories if you give a fuck.

To be quite honest? My mother was or still is into this type of stuff and we spoke about this once and she recommended me some candles poured in salt or something. She said I can try that, that it clears some energies and if it starts to pop, you know there are some bad energy "knots" in your place or whatever the fuck. I think this is some woman-magazine tier spiritualism but I tried it nonetheless. Especially in corners of the rooms, the candles smoked black like insane, one even exploded a bit (not literally, it just popped and made mess on the fucking floor), I think it's placebo because it's salt there of course but the truth is after that I slept better and had a peace from those encounters in about half-year. So I don't really know. You can befriend even (what you call) bad entity by the way.

That and rational explanations should be explored to get rid of the chaff to see if there's any wheat to be had.

Never seen them myself, while I must have smoked at least 1kg of weed in the past few years, did tons of other drugs, have mental disorders and can't watch horror movies because they freak me out, so I guess there's some sort of force field around me that repels them, or perhaps I'm just not of interest for them. People who are spiritually sensitive have told me as well that I'm closed off in that sense.

I know two people who do see them. One has sleep paralysis, she's the typical sort of odd girl that makes you ask what the hell happened in her childhood, the sort that likes slasher gore movies and music that sounds like a construction yard mixed with sounds of cats being strangled, while being extremely shy and sensitive, too meek and gentle to even sacrifice a fly to satan. Maybe that made her vulnerable to shadow people, maybe she made it all up to fit in with an edgy persona, as I can't see why someone plagued by demonic beings would hang posters with upside down crosses in her apartment. The other guy is more interesting, a normalfag by all means, otherwise more mentally resolute than I am, he has two specific entities that haunt him, one of them he calls "the man with the hat", a shadowy figure that appears in his house every night, standing in the doorway, looking at him for a moment, then walking towards him, disappearing when he puts the light on. The other is a less clear shape and acts more randomly, seemingly more aware of people, floating through the hallways, whispering at night. His brother has experienced things in that house as well, but nothing that comes close to being so lucid and specific.

One question I very rarely see discussed regarding shadow people and other entities is; what do they want? Do they just want to mess with people? Are they perhaps terribly bored, having nothing to do, no way to interact with anything, apart from scaring people?

That's what I've been thinking as well. To see is not just to see what is there, it is also to not see what is there. The usual explanation for people seeing things that shouldn't be there according to intellectual dogma is that it's "the brain making stuff up", which is a tautology as all we see is the brain making stuff up, there being no picture independent model of reality.

I really don't like them. I only saw them when I was a child once. The figure was slowly getting closer and closer to my bed inching himself towards me every time I look away. I decide to stare at the dark figure for as long as possible until it lunges towards me and I shit my pants.

I learned how to beat the shadow people though. If you can't see them then they can't do anything to you since your eyes were the one that was hallucinating. All I did was cover my eyes with a blanket when sleeping.
