My mom has seen the hatman. She doesn’t know if she was dreaming or not, but she said that he came through a window and urged her to follow him, but she declined. She believed he was bad and was afraid. My uncle also saw him, twice, one time walking outside a hospital, along the sidewalk, right around the exact time my grandma died in that hospital. Another time he saw him was while he was walking his dog late at night and the hatman was across the street. When my uncle saw him he knew right away and turned around and walked swiftly away.
Although in both my uncle’s and mom’s experiences they described him as being Abraham Lincoln like, with a beard… I don’t recall them saying he was a shadow.
Both my uncle and mom believe he has something to do with pain or death in some way. Mostly because he had an eerie feeling to him and the thing at the hospital.
