The history of the shadow people
The TRUE story of shadow people - are they real or just a figment of our imagination?. Have you ever seen something out of the corner of your eye, but when you turn to look, it's gone? Have you ever heard a strange noise at night that can't be explained? Many people have encountered what is known as "shadow people" - mysterious beings that appear in the darkness and vanish without a trace. Some believe these shadow people are real, while others think they are simply a product of our imagination. Let's explore the true story of shadow people - are they real or just a figment of our imagination?
There was the little boy walking with the man, but when he caught up to his friend, no child was there
**This is a true story as told to me by a close relative, used with permission**. In the olden days, my grandfather was a rice farmer. The rice farm was located several miles away from their homes. As told to me, each day, my grandpa and his friend would rise early in the morning and make the arduous trek to the rice farm.
Are Ghost real? Let's do some hunting at the Washoe Club in Virginia City, Nevada
I love the idea that our souls live in another dimension when we die. If that's true and orbs are a spark of energy and we float around that sounds not too bad. However, you need to be dead to know. Every time I go to Virginia City to look for ghosts/orbs, I always find something. Some people say it's dust but I disagree. When I see balls of light going by my camera lens and they are moving, not floating that's not dust. Anyway, we will never know for sure until we all crossover someday.
