My Shadow
Brother
by Creed
Having resonantly discovered your website, I find my self very relived to find out that I am not the only person to have seen a "shadow person." Until I started to read stories about other people's encounters with these shadow people, I had convinced my self that I must have imagined it and infect had almost entirely forgotten about it until I found your site.
I could have only been about 9 or 10 at the time. I live in a normal house not very big in Birmingham England, My house isn't very old and we are only the second people to live in it, the first being a television crew for a small-time BBC Production called "Starting Out," and as far as we know, no one has ever died in there, and it was only wood land before the house was built in the late '70s, so that rules out the chances of it being haunted.
I was walking up my stairs one night and there were no lights on at the top of stairs. I could see my bedroom door was open because some light from the street lights out side was beaming in. As I walked up the stairs, I saw this figure dart past less than a meter in front of me, and "shadow person" seems like a pretty good description, You couldn't really see through it, but it was as black as the wall behind it except for around the out side of its body, it seemed to have a thin strip all the way around it, kind fluctuating in color, like the way the Predator looks in those movies, but only around the out side edge of its body. It made absolutely no sound. I sat back against the wall for a moment, and decided it had to be my brother trying to scare me, so I bravely went into the room and turned the light on immediately, expecting to find my brother waiting, but he wasn't there, no one was. And there is no way anyone could have got out of my window.
