i think a shadow thing is trying to get close to me
i don’t know what’s going on but for the past 2 nights at work i think i was seeing a shadow of a person . basically it would be in the corner of my eye or just a feeling that someone was there in my peripheral vision and at first i thought it was a actual person but id look up and realize no one was actually there .
basically i work over night security and i drive a patrol vehicle . the first time it happened out of the corner of my eye i thought a person was taking out the trash behind a restauraunt like they usually do, specifically leaning out the side door looking at what i was doing . but when i looked up the door was shut and no one was there .
the next time it happened i was driving and saw someone walk up to a wall near a dumpster and i thought they were standing around the corner to smoke a cigarette but when i turned the corner no one was there at all. i distinctly saw 2 black legs take a step towards the wall. that’s the one that freaked me out .
then last night i looked up and saw a shadow quickly move between 2 trees . and i thought it was someone on a scooter crossing the street behind the trees but when i drove around to look no one was there . it was not taking steps it was gliding very fast, that’s why i thought it was a scooter. no one was down the entire street and there was no where to turn off .
i’m trying to not give it energy but im also scared of it because this has happened to me before several years ago . so im trying to figure out what it means .
basically the first occurrence of this was in 2018. i would hold doors for people who i thought were behind me but turns out they weren’t and also a couple times in my peripheral vision i thought a customer showed up so i would go to greet them and there wasnt anyone there . i’m trying to recall if anything significant was going on in my life at that time but it seems completely random. it also seems to only happen when im distracted. it only happened for like a week back then and then just completely went a way . also i didnt work at the same place i do now . back then i worked at a oil change shop .
it feels too random to be my imagination like i was not expecting this to happen and its super out of character for me. and also things are pretty good in my life im not stressed or going thru anything right now .
