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.

Hatman In The Countryside In Poland

By |August 27th, 2021|

After watching a documentary series about spiritualists this year, I realized that what I saw in my childhood might be something more people saw. I saw the hatmen when I was about 11 years old. Then we lived in the countryside in a L-shaped house. I was passing from the kitchen to the room, these rooms were divided by a long corridor at the end of which was my room. When I came back the corridor was bright as if someone had switched on a light, everything looked sepia. At the end of the corridor, I saw a dark faceless

The Hat Man Story Encounter With The Hat Man

By |August 27th, 2021|

Around 6 years ago I got up late at night and found myself extremely thirsty. I stumbled out of my room, down my hallway and into the kitchen. I drank my water and felt better and walked back through the hall to have a sudden feeling something was watching me. I turned around and saw a black figure, long black trench coat, wide brimmed hat and glowing red eyes staring at me. Frozen for a second I turned and ran back to bed, jumped in to wake my husband to tell him what I saw. As a psychic medium I

Hatman Stories in The Dalles

By |August 27th, 2021|

I can't even believe I'm not the only one. I lived in a house when I was 12 in a small town, The Dalles. I was the only person who lived downstairs, with about 3/4 of it being underground. Since the main entrance was upstairs, I'd really only be downstairs for sleeping, hanging in my room, or on the computer in the room opposite of mine, with the family den in between. There was a hallway between the 2 rooms that you could look down, going deeper into the house, veering right towards the laundry room. There was a laundry

The Hat Man

By |August 27th, 2021|

I cannot believe that there are many other individuals who claimed to see this "hať man"... When I was about 6 years old, my mom worked for this restaurant in town. She would work late hours and have to close the restaurant. My sister and I would help her sometimes because we could take icecream home after we were done. One time my mom gave me directions to grab a box of napkins from the basement so she could restock the tables. I walked down the stairs and looked up and saw a tall man, with some short of Fedora,

I Encountered Him Last Night – Man In Hat

By |August 27th, 2021|

I was sleeping last night. All of a sudden I felt goosebumps all over my body. It felt like someone was watching me. I opened my eyes and saw a black figure with a square topped hat with a large brim. He was reaching out to touch me. I tried like hell to move but couldn’t. Once I was able to move I yelled out and he dissipated. Both dogs were barking towards the location where he was standing. I jumped up and looked around. I saw that it was 2:44 am. Reluctantly I laid back down because I have
