i saw it when i was 10. pretty much pic related.skip forward many years and i see a thread on here 10 years ago with a similar image to this one filled with comments saying they'd also seen him... and i almost shat my pants. it blows my fucking mind how so many people have seen it. im scared to even think about it. its REAL, whatever the fuck it is. and to see curious people dismissing it as a meme breaks my heart because its one of the only paranormal things on this board that is actually real.what is it? no bullshit. no bible shit. does anyone have any idea?
>>42415243your dad molested you
>>42415243OP, some in last week or so mention he might been like a greek myth with a thread of anon encounter/s.It might been some god of death with that 2 snake intertwine in a pole symbol I forgot the term.
>>42415243my story tldrwoke up one night. hes standing behind the door. i sit up, rub my eyes and look closer. he's still there. clearly, its a tall man in a brimmed hat. i scream. mother comes running in after about 10 seconds and flicks the light on. i focus and realise that its just a coatstand with some mens hats and coats hanging on it. "sorry mum". lays down and falls asleep. next morning, coatstand is gone. at breakfast mother asks me what the screaming was about, i tell her i thought the coatstand behind the door was a man. she looks at me confused, "coatstand?". we never owned a coatstand. or hats. when i awoke i assumed she'd moved it while i was asleep. it never existed. i never saw it again.years later, i tell sister about weird story. she only half hears my story and remarks, "coatstand! you and that bloody coatstand! you used to move it around the house and scare me with it. i'd turn around and it'd just be there. it's like it was following me. i'd go into a room come out and it'd be blocking the doorway. i knew it was you hiding somewhere but i could never find you!".what the fuck do you even say to that. i only ever saw it once in my room. my sister was apparently followed around the house by it. everybody else swears we never owned a coatstand. we were poor. wtf we gonna do with a coatstand, hang coats on it? my dog probably slept on my coat bro.shits real
>>42415360your coatstand molested you
>>42415328i cannot express to you in words how wonderful my dad was, anon. he was always there. i miss him dearly. i hope you had that relationship with your dad. i take no offence from your insult. its all good.
>>42415389perhaps. elaborate
>>42415389What I learned from 4chan is that absolutely everything always comes down to molestation.
>>42415243He wants loosh
>>42415391Did he have a wonderful dick?
>>42415969What's loosh? It sounds like zoomer slang.
My dad is the hat man
Some resources for you guys:>The Entity (Documentary, 2002)>The Nightmare (Documentary, 2015)>The Hat Man The True Story Of Evil Encounters, by Heidi Hollis>Darkness Walks: The Shadow People Among Us, by Jason OffuttLooks like there might also be a documentary titled "The Hat Man" but I don't know if I've seen that one and I can't find it available.I've never encountered him, but I've been afraid of it since hearing about it. Fucking hits me in my bogyphobia, dude.I could give you plenty of guesses. Ghost, demon, alien, transdimensional entity, some freaky neurological or psychological phenomenon... but I really don't think I have a good answer, I'm sorry OP.
My wife and I saw him at the same time, stonecold sober while watching TV and laying in bed at like 11pm. He was opaque and noticed that we saw him and was smiling like he was enjoying that we could see him. Our jaws were to the floor and once we realized we could both see him I grabbed the hammer I kept by my bed and turned the lights on while screaming "get out!" he disappeared. I checked every lock and door and everything was locked. Ive always been very skeptical and never believed in anything paranormal until that happened, my wife is more spiritual and has seen apparitions before so she was less shocked/surprised than i was. Our cats were freaking out too which through me for a loop.We were living in a 115 year old apartment that the building manager was convinced it was haunted since supposedly some guy killed his family and then himself while living there, I thought he was joking. What we saw was around 8-9 feet tall and possibly was floating just above the ground (didn't see his feet too in awe by his glowing eyes staring right at me) and had long hands like slender man that were wrapped around the wall into the living room. He was opaque and you couldn't see what was behind him and his hands were in front of the wall clear as day it was a real physical being that just poof disappeared.Since seeing this apparition its opened my eyes to the fact that real pure evil exists and possibly demons/evil entities that feed on fear. Ive concluded that if im going to live in a world where I know that kind of evil exists than I must choose to also believe that the antithesis exists and good entities/spirits should also exist, or at least thats just what I tell myself.I spent weeks looking up everything I could find online to explain what we saw and found an almost identical account of a couple who also saw him at the same time and after that I gave up and realized it was all real it really happened and there's nothing that could convince me otherwise.
>>42415243how was your mental state when you saw the shatman? and im not implying youre insane, just your mental health? he usually appears when youre around the bottom or youre a legit schizo
I hate when people conflate the hatman with sleep paralysis entities
>>42415656One can even say that molestation has molested this website
>>42415243Mr whats it ain't real chud hanbi does not exist goy
I saw him when I was 13/14 and will never forget. And that was the time where I was literally on some government list some dude who would not leave me alone coming to my school asking me inane shit. "Cops" randomly coming up to me trying to get me in the back of their car when I didn't do anything to coming in my apartment when my parents weren't home. Gangstalking. I say this shit and nobody believes me.
You sure you guys aren't experiencing sleep paralysis?I have ghost experience, premonitions, strong intuition, see into other worlds etc very many abilities of the sort and have never seen this. I've also never had sleep paralysis.
>>42420419Sleep paralysis is still not a scientific explanation. More of a self soothing shit I say
>>42415243you dont understandyou need to read psalms 23 everyday start now
>>42420459I know brother. The priest told me to recite it out loud. No more rape noises.
>>42420419I saw it wide awake as an adult and had several instances of sleep paralysis as a kid. 100% different experiances not even close. Some people think if you're prone to sleep paralysis you are more susceptible to seeing shadow beings during sleep paralysis and that the hatman is alleged to be the leader of them idk.
>>42420382>some dude who would not leave me alone coming to my school asking me inane shit.What kind of stuff did he ask you?
