Welcome to the Hatman Project
Hello. My name is Timothy M. Brown, Jr. and I am the site owner, administrator, and researcher for The Hat Man Project. The purpose of this site is to research the phenomenon that has come to be known as “The Hat Man.” Reports of The Hat Man and other shadow beings have been on the rise within the last several decades. It was due to my own experience with this being, as well as my awareness of other people’s sightings of The Hat Man that I decided to begin this research project.
I started this project in 2001, collecting what few stories I could find on the web at the time. Since that time, this site has received hundreds of stories from people all over the world. It has taken me the better part of 20 years to fully understand what this phenomenon is all about. And after years of research I have finally come a conclusion of who or what the Hatman is, why he is appearing now, why he is appearing to people all over the world, and what to do if you are (or have had) and encounter with him.
I am currently writing a book about the Hatman called The Hatman Revealed. In this book I plan to go into detail about the commonalities of the many hundreds of stories we’ve received over the years and what those commonalities reveal about this being and phenomenon. There will be no cost for this book, and I believe that this has become more of a mission of mine more than anything else. This information needs to get out there.
The aim of this website is to explore the stories of the many sightings that have been reported. This is the very first and only web site solely devoted to researching, collecting, and archiving information and stories relating to The Hat Man. As more stories are researched and collected they will be posted on this site regularly.
Have you seen the Hatman? If you or anyone you know has had this experience, we would love to hear from you and add your story to this site. If you have a sighting or an encounter you would like to tell, please post your story here to the right of this page. Once reviewed we will post it online and give others a chance to comment on it. We look forward to hearing from you. If you would like to reach out to us personally, you may do so by contacting us here.

Out Of The Side Of My Sight
Ok, so I have this theory about my house. We bulldozed and built our house on old farmland. In the first years we had a few run-ins with Disembodied voices, music, or the sound of running water that could not be explained. So I decided to try that thing that was in the “6th Sense” Where he has a recording of static then he turns it up and hears a ghost. Well, I tried that with an old Tape recorder. I let this thing record from midnight to 1. The first 15 minutes are nothing… after that… weird shit starts
Vibe Of Somebody Present

The Hat Man in Lightning
I am completely blown away by what I have found out tonight! I am 21 years old now. Today I watched the adjustment bureau.. IDK if it's at all based on the hat man?? but it reminded me of something that had happened to me a few years back about me waking up and seeing a man in a hat in my room… So I was like hey… I have a laptop on my lap.. I'm going to Google it.. so I type in “shadow man in hat appeared in my room” and BAM thousands of people have seen him
Shadow On The Wall
I remember I saw this guy years ago when I must have been around 5 years old in the early 90s. I always thought it was my mind playing tricks on me and soon forgot about it as I got older. They say trauma can distort the memory but when I read these stories I remembered everything! I was sleeping, I guess I might have been woken up by something I don’t remember by what. I saw a shadow on the wall by the end of my bed it was tall anywhere from 6-7 foot and it had no facial
The Man In My Dream
I’ve always had a recurring dream about the Hat Man. I woke up screaming to this dream when I was a bit younger. In the dream, it's pitch black all around and I can only see the outline of a tall man in a long coat and wide-brimmed hat. It feels like I am only the size of his boot and looking up at him, terrified. I can never make out a face, just the white outline of him. He is screaming at the top of his lungs, and the voice is very deep and it plays out in slow
“YOU”
I've Seen the hat man about 15 years ago... Got to say I was shocked to see other people see the same thing... but I didn't just see the hat man... I woke up one night and noticed a figure standing in the corner of the room. I thought I was seeing things so I rubbed my eyes and looked again. It was still there.. It wore a hooded cloak and its face kind of looked like a troll... Little eyes, big nose, big mouth. Then I noticed that something was standing in front of my door. It was the
Oh That’s A Black Hat
When I was younger, maybe 4 or 5, I’d wake up every morning to the Hat Man standing in my doorway. I lay in bed and watch him as the sun filled my room and then I’d blink and he’d be gone. I’ve seen him intermittently over the years since. The last two times, which were months apart and the last being almost two years ago, he was standing right over me when I woke up. The first of those times I was sleeping on the top bunk of a bunk bed and he was standing over me as though
The Hooded Figure And The Hat Man
When I was younger I had a dream where a shadow man wearing a hat was chasing me, in my dream I hide from him but he found me as if he knew i was there the whole time, he grabbed me and lifting me as if I was a made of air, then I woke up. Later on I was sleeping a few years ago and when i woke up I saw a extremely large hooded figure it wasn’t the hatman it was something else. I didn’t see his face but he kept pointing at me with a skeleton
Imaginary Friend
My nephew had an imaginary friend that he said was named “Dooga”. He described him as very tall and thin and wearing a big black hat and long black jacket. My nephew was three at the time and continued to talk to, and about, Dooga til he was about five. Around eight years later i walked into my three year old son’s room because I heard him talking to someone. There was no one there and I asked who he was talking to and he said “Dooga”. I thought this was creepy so I asked who Dooga was and he
