I had an experience when I was 10 or 11 (around 1995.) I lived with my parents at my grandmothers house which had been passed to them. Elmendorf, tx across from a wide open farm. I would wait for the bus around 530am. My brother would get on a different bus about 15mins before me since he was older and therefore went to a different school. It happened twice around that time. It was dark outside at that hour and I could still make out that it was a tall man in a long trench coat and wide brim hat. It scared me and I remember running inside and waking my father who was a D.A. Investigator for the city of San Antonio at the time. He would tell me to stay inside with my mom while he went outside with his .357 to secure the property. After the second time he told me the next time it happened to say a prayer and tell it to leave. These details come to me now because my father and I have covered this subject many times through the years. My father grew up in a family of psychics so I learned he was open to the reality of the paranormal. I never saw it again. He’s told me since then when he checked the area where this “person” was standing, with the morning dew on the ground it was clear that nobody had stood there that morning. He also said that I had a gift and even now tells me that I am ignoring it because I’m scared. He said he lost his ability when he left to Vietnam. I saw my grandma when I was 7 in full detail and color 3 years after her death. I see things from the corners of the eye and hear things on occasion but have not really researched it until this morning while looking for a good coast to coast am show on YouTube to listen to. I came upon the show about the hat man then decided to google and here I am. It is very interesting to find this happened to others. Thanks for allowing me to share my story.
