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.

Did You See That Too?
One day my friend and I were sitting at the dining room table talking when I suddenly felt a lightning bolt flash through my head that doubled me over in my chair momentarily. As I slowly sat back up, I looked to my right and saw the ghostly figure of a man, approximately 6 ft. tall, clad in a long frock coat, with his hands in the pockets and he was wearing a broad-brimmed hat. He had entered the outside living room wall and swiftly walked straight across the living room into my friend's sister's bedroom where she happened to
I Felt My Energy Being Stolen From Me
When I was little. I lived in a house were some strange things happened. My parents are skeptical. And any time I heard voices, a door slammed or else, they would always tell me it was my imagination or a dream. As I grew up. I started to see a shadow figure watching me from my bathrooms door. At the beginning it was more like mist. But it was something that was starting to attach to me. After some years the shadow I always saw, started to change. It began to take the figure of a human wearing a hat. And as this happened every
He Was Staring At Me
I was 15 years the first and only time I saw him. It was in nov. of 1998, I had just had my son, (he was a week old) 2 days later my great grandmother died. I will never forget it. I was lying in bed and I woke up because I had to use the bathroom. Then I saw him standing beside my sons basinet. I was scared, so I pulled the covers over my head and layed there for awhile. Then I peeked my head out and he was gone, so I went to the bathroom (which was
My Body Was Shaking
I was around 7. Back then I was living with my grandma and mother in the same house, it was around 10PM already so mom told me to go to sleep because tomorrow I have school. I went to my room and locked it, as I usually do, then looked at my bed and sighed heavily while going towards it, got myself comfortable in it and just stared at the darkness that was in my room until my eyes got used to it, in the end I decided to take some sleep. I woke up suddenly after some hours all

There’s A Man In My House!
1st Encounter: My mom was taking a nap one afternoon and sadly I don’t remember exactly the time, but all I know is that I was also taking a nap in my room. I woke up to her screaming my name, “AUTUMN! AUTUMN!” this startled me awake and I jumped out of bed still shaking off sleep. Right after that, she screams, “THERE’S A MAN IN THE HOUSE! THERE’S A MAN IN MY CLOSET!” I ran to her room thinking there was a legit person in our house. I have a physical disability so I can’t defend myself or her.
It Was A Rainy Day
Hey Tim! I would like to share my story with you. I have never told this to anyone before and I think this is a really special story. When I was about 16 I started to practice some kind of quick-visions experiments. It's an exercise where you get to see things faster and have a more clear vision of the whole picture. In the beginning it was just a game, but it was proving me to be a real deal. So, it was a rainy day. I was with some friends visiting an old historic city on the south but
Hideous And Mean Looking
I wouldn't say that I have a story as such. More like a collection of instances that come together with the phenomena of the Hat Man in a way that gives me a sudden realization. First, my mother is and was a very reckless and selfish person, who thought that she was one of the most powerful beings in the world. She often practiced ritualistic magic and witchcraft, though she seldom knew what she was doing truly. She used to threaten myself and all of my siblings with her "Power" and often told us that she cast spells "For Us".
This Entity Is Strong
My sister has seen the hat man. I personally, haven't actually had an encounter with this figure but I have had other strange situations occur. First off, I noticed my sister started to talk about feeling frightened or scared when she would sleep in her bedroom at night (Around the age 16/17), she always came to me and my mom to tell us what she had felt while sleeping at night. I noticed that the more she acted afraid of this entity, the more it started to show up. She had nightmares nightly, she felt as if someone was sitting
