Dark, Wobbling Hat Man
by Mario
I have read a lot of stories here about a top hat ghost, and have a story to share about it. When: I believe it was 1995, around April. Where: Our house in Australia. I was in high school at the time. My sister and I were in our living room, and it was just after lunch, about 3:00 p.m.. We were both sitting down watching TV. Our living room is such that at one end we have a double sliding glass door, and the other side we have a small door on the side of the room, connecting into our dining / kitchen area. The sliding doors, when open, sit on either side of the doorway. The walls behind are cream colored.
Anyway, both my sis and I were watching TV when, for some reason, we both turned and looked toward the glass doors. We don't even know why we turned to look. In the reflection of the glass door (remember when they are open, they slide in front of the cream colored wall) we could see the rest of the room behind us. In that reflection I saw the following: A big black mass, which had a shifting, undefined outline, but similar to a big blob of dark wobbling jelly. My sister saw a tall, dark shade with a top hat. I turned to look behind us and could not see the figure, but when I turned back to look at the reflection, it was still there. We both saw the shape move out into the middle of the room (still in the reflection), then out the back doorway into the kitchen. It was odd that we both saw slightly different images, though we both definitely saw something there. We really didn't know what to think, but were sort of creeped out by it.
