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.

The Hatman In Madrid Spain
Note: This story came from Spain. I ran this text through an online translator (which you can read below). It is a rough translation but you can get the idea. A few years ago we were on vacation in a village called Conil (Spain). One night that i slept with my mother, I woke up screaming scared, I asked him what was happening and she told me that he had seen a shadow of a man with a cape and wide-brimmed hat reclined on her, watching her.

A Strange Tall Shadow
It surprised me to learn that I was not the only one who had hear about the Hat Man. I just came across it about a month ago. Pretty much my story deals with seeing the figure myself. When I was about four years old and had just moved into my new home, I started seeing this strange, tall, shadow that looked like he wore a long coat and a fedora hat. Instead of being scared, I actually was interested in him and tried speaking to him. Although, this 'thing' just kept standing in the hall of my house, just

Shadows And Figures Of Absolute Darkness
I have seen weird shadows and figures of absolute darkness most of my life. However, not since 2007 have I witnessed any shadow beings. I always managed to ignore them by rolling over and going back to sleep-- completely unafraid. I am now pregnant and last Saturday night, woke up in the middle of the night feeling that someone was watching me. I rolled over and saw a man standing in my bathroom doorway-- I wanted to scream, but was halted by the site of his figure. He was extremely tall, solid black, blacker than the darkest black you can
A Demonic Force That Is Not To Be Messed With
My encounter with the hat man was not a very pleasant one. It all began when i was about 4 years old. My parents were needless to say not a very happy couple and would always fight giving off negative energy. At the same time I was just starting school and was always getting bullied. This carried on all through my life as an elementary to early high school. It seemed that all of this negative energy caused what would be called the (Hat man) to show up. Around 3 in the morning (Dead Time) I don't know why but
