This happened in Amazonas state, Brazil. I saw this silhouette back in 2001, I was 17 years old and was staying the weekend at a school friend’s house. After we had dinner, she asked me to help her install the internet and teach her how to use it. Her pc was in her bedroom but the phone line was located in the living room.

I got the CPU then while I set my foot in the corridor which led to the living room, a really tall silhouette came running at the wall, to my left, it was so tall his head and Top Hat was at the ceiling. His shoes were pointy, like a dapper tall man, but only a shadow. My whole body got limp, my legs got floppy while I battled to keep holding the damn beige and grey CPU. I instantly started to cry, and my then-friend asked kinda amused what the hell just happened since she was right after me, holding the monitor? I told her what I saw and she just shrugs and said: “Ah, I often see this man’s shadow, I really don’t care anymore.”

The hell, that was the last time I slept at her house. Every time I recollect what happened, it gives me goosebumps and shivers. Thank you for reading, I’m really impressed and creeped out to know this is a worldwide phenomenon.
