I have always seen “shadows out the corner of my eyes” ever since I can remember. I always get the feeling that I walk into a room a milisecond too late and I see something passing or leaving. But, as far as I know or can recollect, I never saw the Hat Man or anything like him as a child. Unless I was so young that I can’t remember it. I told her that I didn’t get the feeling he was there to harm the child. My feeling is that he was what I call a “watcher”. My cousin and I had a discussion about it very late last night and we both feel the Hat Man may be a harbinger of some sort. Of what I can’t say. I’ve not been priveledged enough to see that. But I feel that he is. But a harbinger of what? I don’t know. Maybe that would explain why some feel immense fear and dread when they see him? For them he is a harbinger of something bad coming their way and he projects the energy of that event. For others, they may be scared but don’t necessesarily feel “bad vibes”. Maybe because he has no warning for them…he’s just watching? Very interesting. I need to read more and digest this for a bit.
