I hope that you be able to fix a little my text. My congratulations for your web site, and good luck! This story happened when I was perhaps ten years. I remember that it was winter or maybe was spring, but I don’t know. I had dinner with my whole family in my house around to eleven o’clock. When I was ten years I was afraid of the dark, always my parents left turn on the corridor’s lights and later they get rest. That night, I was afraid but I don’t remember why. I was very nervous. I went to my bed, later perhaps thirty minutes my parents went to its bed also and they left the corridor light burning, as all days. Later, around one hour, I remember that I could not sleep and I had hot because I was under my blanket and I was scared so much because then… I could see something in my bedroom’s door, I was frozen and my eyes were really open, It seemed real. I saw half door into the shadows, and the rest under the corridor’s light with a strange shape. It was mom’s silhouette, I thought that my mother was in the corridor but it was very late. I focused all my senses in the strange silhouette that drew in my door, but It didn’t move and I couldn’t hear nothing, my house was completely silent. I kept seeing this about fifteen minutes, but it didn’t move. Seems that this watched me. My heart hit stronger and faster, my skin was very sensitive, my eyes couldn’t leave see there and I didn’t move anything. I thought that there want something of me. Finally, I thought call my mother. I invented an excuse. My plan was seeing that will happened when my mother heard my call. If my mother was in the corridor then she would move together the strange silhouette. I thought that mother wanted to waste my one joke. I took a little air and shouted: -“Mom!, Please Can you bring a glass with water?” Suddenly mother answered, but her voice arrived since her room, in this moment I felt panic because nobody was in the corridor, and the strange shadow was still there on the door in the middle of night. Then, I could hear my mother standing up of her bed… and… the shadow was moved, with a little step in direction to the half door with darkness.

Actually, I’m twenty five years old. I’m engineer with a few mentions and I consider a scientific skeptical person although yet I don’t know much English :P I’m sure that exist an explication. But… Is very curious, because I felt any intelligent in this silhouette when there moved to the shadow. Also, the angle of my door don’t coincide with the angle of corridor light. Nobody couldn’t make a joke. My mother remember my face that night, she was very worried when she returned of the kitchen with the glass.
