OK this is a really wierd thing that i keep seeing…

Ive seen him about 8 times over the past 3 months but nobody else does. what it is is that when ive been in the car (i dont drive i’m too young) i occaisionally catch a glimps of this man, wearing a top hat and a black blazer where two pointy bits hang down at the back, stood at the side of the road holding a cane, like some sort of 40’s showman. I go too look properly but he’s not really there. I only see him stood at the side of the road where there is no pavement, just grass like in the countryside… Am i mentally ill or what is this about? Whats more is he is monochrome, just shades of black and white like a newspaper cutting…

Any ideas? Is it just my imagination…?

It could, of course, be your imagination. When I was 13-17 I used to see people crouching in doorways, shivering. It was eerie, but I concentrated and ‘prayed’ and eventually they went away. Wether it was my imagination, or I was really seeing spirits was unimportant - at least it stopped!

i tend to watch late night tv and i found a show on A&E called Psychic Kids… its very interesting and helpful to anyone that might be sensitive to spirits.
does the man scare you? maybe you can ask him why he is there or his name and try to validate something about him having existed.

its cool and i don’t think it should be ignored or be a source of fear.
maybe you can help him cross over or something.

it would be hald to talk to him, i aint told my family and its only when were in the car that i see him, he just goes past too quickly for me to get a proper look…

and no he doesnt scare me, i get the feeling that he’s a nice person, a bit like a grandpa type person…

and i live in the UK so i dont get that channel…

*Takes off scientific hat with a happy smile - glad to be rid of it*
Now I have a more open mind… :)

It could be that he is some sort of guardian spirit - something I could do with right now. If he is friendly then do not worry, keep on going and you may even be able to call on him in trouble.

*grins* Do tell us if that happens! Sounds like a good movie… *hehe*

Seriously though - don’t lose sleep over it, and given you are in the UK, like me, it looks like you are! If it is non-threatening be happy about it. Use it to fuel your imagination. Enjoy the experience, ’cause god knows there are enough sad and unpleasent ones in life.

Kind of sounds it, I’m just confused by the fact it is monochrome…it just seems odd bc that seems to be the feature of a demon. However, if you’re not threatened, everything should be ok. I was threatened by the ones I saw.

yea, that gets me more then anything else for some reason, coming to think about it, its like he’s off one of them old films that get played in a loop at a museum. Does that make sense…?

Lol, I’d definitely read it. You’d be shocked to know how relative this matter is.

or even better, one of those really serious channel 4 documentaries, ‘the boy who was saved from a car crash by an imaginary 1940’s street perfomer, tuesday at 10′

maybe not

Could just be a figure of your imaginiation… Or… You could be seeing something that wants you to see it… Do you need to do anything? Have you done something lately? Did you make any promises to anyone you didnt keep? These are important questions you need to ask yourself… Play any games latley that were occultish? Just a suggestion.. next time you see it, say the Lords prayer… I know.. religious nut job right here… no, seriously, Do it. I reasearch the occult, religion and demonology. Let me know if this keeps happening… I have other suggestions, but i dont think this is as bad as it could be. It hasnt made any real contact and it hasnt told you anything or tried to… right? I think you’ll be okay.

OMG! OMG! O!M!G!!!!! (this is anonymous btw)

Today i was in a car crash!!!!! How weird is that! Ive never been in a car crash before and days after i say that i might be in for a car crash or summit i am actually in a car crash! It wasnt serious or anything, just that some druggy that my mum recognised pulled out in front and my step dad smashed into the side of him…

whats more is that we were on our way back from my grandads house in Tewksbury and his partners mum had died suddenly about a 6 weeks ago. Now a few days before i was told this i had this dream that i was in a car with my grandads partner and an older woman and we were in a car crash and from what i can make out someone died… Now i was going to question whether in fact his partners mum had died in a crash or by some other means but i didnt think it was right to ask so i never mentioned anything about the dream. And now on the way home from seeing them for the first time since her mum died, we have a car crash AND the car we crash into was the same as the one as in the dream!!!!!!!
